Adaptation of Mindfulness Training to Treat Chronic Pain in the Military

The overall aim of study is to test the acceptability and feasibility of an interactive,
web-based mindfulness training with active duty soldiers being treated for chronic pain. We
will adapt the evidence-based Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) training for use with
this population. The adapted training will be enhanced by mobile applications (apps) for
skills practice, using an existing apps platform.
