Summary

this study will be conducted to investigate The Impact Of Adding Mindfulness Meditation to Cognitive Behavioral Training On Pain And Quality Of Life In Fibromyalgia.

Detailed description

Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a disorder characterized by chronic, widespread musculoskeletal pain. Muscle and joint stiffness, insomnia, fatigue, mood disorders, cognitive dysfunction, anxiety, and generalized sensitivity are the main manifestations of this disease .Cognitive-behavioral training presents as an important therapeutic resource, as it is capable of modifying patient's negative thoughts and expectations, improving mood, stress, coping with pain and problem solving, including behavioral interventions that specifically deal with improving the fibromyalgia symptoms (sleep hygiene, re-laxation training, activity rhythm).Mindfulness meditation is the intentional effort to pay nonjudgmental attention to present-moment experiences and sustain this attention over time. The aim is to cultivate a stable and nonreactive present-moment awareness. Mindfulness Based Pain Management has been evaluated and showing significant positive changes in patients with chronic pain, with medium to large effect sizes on self-report measures of depression, positive outlook, pain acceptance. fifty women with fibromylagia will be assigned randomly to two groups; first one will receive mindfulness meditation for 30 minutes in addition to mobile application-based brain training program and the second one will receive mobile application-based brain training program alone
