Specifically, this study will test mindfulness booster sessions to follow a standard 8-week MBCT-T intervention, as well as website support in patients with heart disease and/or heart disease risk factors.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	MBCT-T	MBCT-T is an 8-week group-based program that combines training in mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral therapy to reduce psychological distress and negative emotions. Each weekly 1-hour session will consist of a check-in, discussion, teaching, mindfulness or cognitive behavioral practice or exercise, inquiry by the facilitator, and summary of the at-home practice.
BEHAVIORAL	Booster Mindfulness Sessions	Following the standard 8-week MBCT-T program, participants in certain arms will receive monthly MBCT-T booster sessions for 4 months of follow up. Each booster session will be 1 hour long. The sessions will include a concise review and summary of the main MBCT-T sessions.
BEHAVIORAL	Website Support	Participants in certain arms will receive continuous intervention support via the use of an online study website. The website will provide quick access to intervention materials and support to encourage participants to complete the at-home practice and apply the content of the MBCT-T program to real life situations.
