Stress Clinical Trial
Official title:
Meditation to Reduce Stress and Improve Quality of Life: A Feasibility Study
The purpose of this study is to test a simple meditation program that is easy to learn; inexpensive; easy to practice; non-religion based; and has wide applicability to multiple medical conditions. This program has been developed by the Complementary and Integrative Medicine Program at the Mayo Clinic.
Stress is a ubiquitous problem and a mediator of symptoms for a variety of medical
conditions. Most medical diagnoses, procedures, and physician visits are associated with
considerable stress. Excessive stress is associated with adverse medical outcomes, unhealthy
coping mechanisms, symptoms of anxiety and depression, and overall a poor quality of life.
No specific pharmacologic treatment is available for treating stress. Further, it is often
difficult or impossible to change the reality of circumstances causing stress in an
individual. Thus increasing individual coping mechanisms and ability of a person to handle
stress, rather than changing the stressors itself, might be a more feasible approach towards
reducing stress.
Meditation is a widely used and increasingly popular intervention that positively affects
the individual at cognitive, physical, emotional, behavioral, and spiritual levels. A
practice of meditation has been shown to reduce symptoms of stress and improve overall
quality of life. Several meditation programs exist, however most are limited by considerable
expense, need for elaborate training, lack of widespread availability, or incorporation of
ideas and practices unique to a particular culture.
