First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study is testing a smartphone app called Mindful Journey that teaches mindfulness skills. The goal is to see if it is practical and acceptable for adults who are in treatment for opioid use disorder and also have chronic pain. Ten participants will use the app for 8 weeks, and researchers will measure how often they use it and how helpful they find it.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a practical, app-based tool to help people manage both opioid use disorder and chronic pain.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It focuses on whether the app is usable and acceptable, not on proving it works.
