A pilot randomized control trial (RCT) to examine the efficacy of a culturally tailored mindfulness intervention upon fasting cardiometabolic factors (including markers of glycemic control) and inflammatory gene expression in n=20 (n=10 intervention, n=10 wait-list control) low-income Spanish-speaking Latina pregnant women. The study will be conducted in partnership with MOMS, a nonprofit community organization that serves low-income pregnant and postpartum women.
