Investigators will compare the values of these three scales at the beginning of the mindfulness practices to their values at three months of practice and control groups. Participants will: * be randomized into practice and wait-list control groups * complete the set of three questionnaires upon entry into the study - (the baseline or zero time point; at the 3-months time point, and at the six-months time point * practice the mindfulness techniques with Tao Calligraphy and Tao Song for a minimum of thirty minutes daily
