Study Summary

This is a prospective parallel non-blinded randomized study with two arms, an intervention group and an active control group. Sixty healthy, but stressed nurses will be randomly assigned to either participate in a 6-week internet-based mindfulness meditation program produced by the Cleveland Clinic called Stress Free Now for Healers or to listen to relaxing music for at least 5 minutes a day for 6 weeks, and pre-post comparisons will be made for RNA expression profiles, plasma cytokine concentrations, telomerase activity, 6-point salivary cortisol and several self-reported assessments of physical and mental health.

Primary Outcome

Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) will be used to measure whole transcriptome RNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of subjects before and after participation in Stress Free Now or the control intervention. This data will then be used to create a pre-post differential expression signature to identify genes that were significantly up- or downregulated across the entire group. The within group changes will then be compared between the intervention and the control group and an
