Mindful Walking for Adults With Chronic Pain

Conditions

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Both mindfulness-based interventions and light physical activity have been shown as effective in reducing the burden of chronic pain. This proposed intervention, mindful walking (MW), is a combination of physical activity and mindfulness-based intervention aimed at reducing pain with a non-pharmacological approach. In MW, mindfulness-based instructions emphasized acknowledging arising thoughts, feelings, and/or emotions without judgment or emotional reaction and to "simply return their attention back to the footstep" sensation whenever such discursive events occur. Furthermore, subjects will be taught that perceived sensory and affective events were "momentary" and "fleeting" and do not require further interpretation or evaluation.
