Summary

This study looks at whether a smartphone-based mindfulness program is practical and helpful for teens and young adults (ages 15-39) with sickle cell disease who have chronic pain or sleep problems. Participants use guided mindfulness exercises on their phone for about 8 weeks. The goal is to see if people stick with the program and find it acceptable, not to prove it works yet.
