MBCT intervention for ACS patients
The MBCT intervention will involve 8 virtually-delivered MBCT sessions (approximately 1.5 hours each), during which participants will be taught how to use evidence-based mindfulness skills to regulate distress and choose healthy behaviors, as well as learn about cardiac health. Participants involved in the intervention will be asked to complete a brief survey following each session. Within one week before and after the intervention and 3-months post-intervention participants will be asked to complete a series of questionnaires and provide self-collected blood samples. Upon completion of the intervention participants will complete an audio-or video recorded exit interview (approximately 30 minutes).
