This case report examines the use of an Apple Vision Pro headset running a mindfulness app to manage pain and anxiety in a hospitalized patient with mixed connective tissue disease. The text details a 48-hour intervention involving six sessions, reporting reductions in self-rated pain and anxiety scores alongside decreased as-needed medication usage. It notes minor device-related discomforts such as eye strain and concludes by recommending larger-scale studies to further evaluate this non-pharmacological approach.
