Summary
In a pilot study, 90 physically inactive patients will be opportunistically and consecutively recruited and randomized to three intervention groups: mindfulness training, Physical Activity on Prescription (PAP) or only PAP. Follow-up will be done at baseline, three and six months with questionnaires, accelerometers and analysis of traditional risk factors to evaluate whether mindfulness may increase physical activity and decrease physical inactivity.
