Cardiovascular Effects of Music Versus Guided Mindfulness (NCT07338500)
Cardiovascular Effects of Music Versus Guided Mindfulness: A Randomized Crossover Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to examine how listening to music compares to guided mindfulness in affecting blood pressure, heart rate, and feelings of anxiety in healthy adults. The investigators aim to determine whether one of these approaches is more effective in reducing these variables. Additionally, the study will explore whether personal traits or preferences, measured using questionnaires, influence how participants respond to music or mindfulness. Based on previous clinical findings, the researchers hypothesize that listening to music will lead to greater reductions in blood pressure and heart rate compared to guided mindfulness.
