The goal of this study is to look at the impact of mind-body interventions on cognitive, brain, and emotional function in older adults. Participants will attend either a mindfulness-based stress lowering program or a lifestyle education group. Both will meet weekly for eight weeks. Participants will be asked to complete homework assignments using a mobile or web-based application and will be invited to four additional sessions over the course of a year. Researchers will collect both pre- and post-assessments of behavioral and cognitive function, as well as inflammatory markers.
