Comparing the Impact of Four Types of Meditation Practices for Relaxation in Cancer Survivors (NCT06500377)
A Pilot Study Exploring Four Types of Meditation Practices for Relaxation Among Cancer Survivors
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This clinical trial compares the impact of four types of meditation practices, breathing only, focused attention only, mindfulness only, and breathing, focused attention and mindfulness combined, for relaxation in cancer survivors. Studies show that many patients with cancer experience stress and anxiety. Meditation therapy uses a variety of techniques, such as breathing, sound, or movement, that may help to decrease distress and anxiety and enhance the health and quality of life of patients with cancer. The trial is being done to find out how meditation can help cancer survivors feel relaxed and attain a peaceful state of mind.
