Sponsor's own description

This study will seek to compare the effect of a mindfulness meditation program for adolescents with chronic illness delivered either in person or via an online platform. The 8-week program will combine meditation practices, breathing exercises and group discussions. Participants will be recruited from different general and specialized clinics at the Hospital for Sick Children and will be allocated to either an in-person or the online group through a random process (like tossing a coin). The study will aim to recruit 60 participants ages 13-18. Each participant will provide data through research questionnaires, recorded interviews and saliva samples.
