The AMBR Study is a randomized controlled trial that examines the effectiveness of teaching mindfulness-based techniques through online lessons to combat loneliness, anxiety, and depression among people living with HIV who are over the age of 50 and enrolled in ADHOC (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT04311554). The intervention consists of 14 mindfulness audio lessons, each approximately 20-minutes long. The mindfulness lessons are designed to develop three core skills: concentration (the ability to maintain focus on present-moment experiences), clarity (the ability to pinpoint exactly what you are experiencing in each moment), and equanimity (openness to experience).
