Summary

This study tested whether personalized 'N-of-1' trials—where each person tries different stress management techniques in a specific order—can reduce stress better than standard care. 212 adults with high stress tried mindfulness meditation, yoga, and brisk walking over several weeks. Some followed a personalized schedule, while others chose their own order. The goal was to see if personalized feedback helps people stick with and benefit from stress relief.
