Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A study to asses the feasibility of physicians using a wearable brain sensing wellness device during a time of increased work load, patient volume and stressors to assess the association between duration of active state and calm state as measured by the wearable brain sensing wellness device, and quality of life (QOL), subjective stress, sleep and resilience.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Participants will be instructed on how to use a brain sensing device and corresponding digital application to engage in structured digital mindfulness practices daily for 3 months. Subjects will be requested to use the device and practice daily, but the amount of time and frequency daily will be to their choosing. Subjects will also complete questionnaires and cognitive based testing throughout participation.
