Individualized imagery

Study personnel will assist participants to create scripts that foster relaxation and safety. Objects, places, and/or scenarios that foster participant relaxation, sense of safety, and/or positive emotions will be identified. Participants will write or type the generated scenario using highly detailed elements (e.g., including visual, olfactory, auditory, tactile, and gustatory sensations, as applicable) associated with the imagery. Study personnel will assist with recording the imagery scripts; audio files will be recorded using an audio recording application. The imagery scripts will be played at night via Bluetooth earbuds connected to the Muse app and script recording while laying down to sleep. The imagery rehearsal prompts will play for approximately 15 minutes, based on 10-20-minute recommendations across imagery rehearsal therapy (IRT) studies

BEHAVIORAL

Control

Participants will wear the earbuds, with use of Muse S headband to collect outcome data without the individualized imagery scripts.
