Brief Summary:
This is a pilot study to test the effects of the SMART-3RP (Stress Management and Resiliency Training Relaxation Response Resiliency Program) on quality of life, mental health, arrhythmia burden, and heart rate variability (HRV) in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF).
Detailed Description:
Mind-body practices that elicit the relaxation response (RR) have been used worldwide to prevent and treat disease. The Stress Management and Resiliency Training - Relaxation Response Resiliency Program (SMART-3RP) is an 8-week manualized psycho-educational program that incorporates RR methods such as meditation or seated yoga along with cognitive skills building and lifestyle approaches to increase resiliency to stress. This study will use a randomized, wait-list controlled trial design to test the effects of the SMART-3RP on quality of life (QoL), mental health, arrhythmia burden, and HRV in patients with PAF. The program will be delivered virtually (via computer video conferencing), questionnaires will be completed, and physiological data as well as blood will be collected.
