The first part of the pilot study, as detailed in Unique Protocol ID No. 27522, is a randomized clinical trial that compares the effects of a mind-body bridging program with a sleep hygiene program to improve sleep quality in patients suffering from sleep disturbances. In Part II of the study, the investigators will perform a six month follow-up on the same subjects.
In this follow-up, we ask subjects to answer the same questionnaires that they completed at the beginning of the study. In addition we will ask subjects to complete a survey reflecting their medical history over the past 6 months and a second survey establishing their behavioral patterns and whether they continued practicing techniques of the intervention they were assigned to.
