Do you know anyone struggling with anxiety or worry related to any aspect of our current COVID-19 pandemic? This research study is an online low-intensity treatment study which aims to reduce anxiety and enhance resilience in this troubled time. All participants will receive brief anxiety reduction training using cognitive-behavioral strategies. In addition, two-thirds will be asked to engage in a daily mind-body practice (mindfulness meditation or Kundalini Yoga). Meditation and yoga may also help to reduce pain and improve energy and cognition a study for these common Lyme-related symptoms will be launched in the near future.
