BEHAVIORAL	SMART-3RP Group Intervention	Nine 1.5 hour group sessions focusing on developing: 1. an understanding of stress physiology and the physiology of the relaxation response; 2. a regular practice of eliciting the relaxation response; and 3. cognitive behavioral and positive psychology/resilience skills.
