Summary

This pilot study tests whether a wearable EEG headband (MUSE-S) that guides meditation can help breast cancer survivors who struggle with anxiety and insomnia. Twenty participants will use the headband at home, and researchers will track how often they use it and whether it improves sleep, quality of life, and anxiety. The goal is to see if this approach is feasible and worth studying further.
