A Brief Mindful Drinking/Eating Intervention for Hemodialysis Patients With Fluid Restrictions

Participants will be individually guided during their dialysis session through: 1) a mindful drinking exercise, a meditation focused on the sensory experience of 3 sips of fluid, along with a discussion of the experience; and 2) a mindful eating exercise with select foods that are recommended for controlling thirst (i.e., hard candy, frozen fruits). Participants will be given directions for mindful drinking/eating and asked to practice mindful drinking/eating as often as possible but least once each day.
