Abstract

A client had difficulty sleeping and was isolated at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. Full attention to breath, body, and mind activities is essential in mindfulness practice. Treatments and measurements of mental relaxation are administered using the first-generation Muse™ "S" Series. Portable and the "Muse: Meditation and Sleep" by InteraXon apps, connected by mobile technology (iPad/ iOS). This research method uses a single-subject study design with a time series approach. The research sample was conducted on clients with post-stroke comorbidities. The treatment of mental relaxation sessions using mindfulness techniques: mindfulness of breath and body, and Muse’s built-in brainwave entrainment. The results of measuring brainwave conditions inferred from the Muse™ application are compared. This study finds reflection on the practice of mindfulness on mental relaxation. Changes in deep relaxation occur when the client uses brainwave entrainment assistance compared to without using the default brainwave entrainment from the Muse™ application. Information on the Muse™ measurement app shows increased, lasting strength with each session. Clients run a total of twelve sessions of mental relaxation guidance. In each session, the client feels more comfortable using the help of brainwave entrainment. Even though the comparison of treatments showed different results, sleep problems and isolation during the pandemic were resolved through mindfulness sessions.
