Online Mindfulness Course for Pediatric IBD
Contact
Description
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) can sometimes add stress to your life and that may affect your physical symptoms of pain and stool habits. In this study, we want to know if practicing mindfulness via an online Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) course taught by a trained teacher can help with your IBD. If you are a patient with IBD, who is between 12-19 years of age, you might be eligible to participate in an 8 week long MBSR group course online. You will answer a series of questionnaires and submit stool samples 3 times over the course of the study, and you will also participate in 1 focus group to discuss your experience in the study. You will be compensated for your participation.
