Promoting Resiliency Among Lymphoma Survivors: The 3RP-Lymphoma
The Relaxation Response Resiliency Program (3RP) was developed by researchers at the MGH Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine; This program has recently been adapted to target the needs of individuals who have completed treatment for lymphoma (3RP-Lymphoma).
The Relaxation Response Resiliency Program, or 3RP, was developed by researchers at the MGH Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine. The 3RP is a group program that-through a variety of mind-body approaches, such as imagery, relaxation, and yoga-seeks to buffer stress and promote psychological resiliency and physical well-being.
The 3RP has not yet been carried out with individuals who have recently completed treatment for lymphoma. As such, the investigators have adapted the standard 3RP program to target the specific needs of lymphoma patients who are transitioning off active treatment. The investigators are conducting this study to see if the adapted program, the 3RP-Lymphoma, is effective at reducing stress and stress-related symptoms for people who have completed treatment for lymphoma within the past two years. To develop the 3RP-Lymphoma, the investigators conducted interviews with patients who had recently completed treatment to learn about their experiences and their preferences for topics they would want to include in a program tailored to their specific needs. The current phase of the feasibility study will examine if the adapted program is feasible, acceptable, and helps promote stress management among lymphoma survivors who are in the early stages of completing cancer treatment.
