The investigators wish to conduct a preliminary study to examine the efficacy of meditation among patients with Post Treatment Lyme Syndrome (PTLDS). Specifically, the investigators will use the breathing, meditation, and stretching techniques common to Kundalini Yoga practice. The investigators plan to assess the degree in which this practice can reduce Post-Treatment Lyme Disease symptoms. Because fatigue and pain are so common among patients with PTLDS, the primary focus of this study will be fatigue and pain. Secondary outcomes will include cognitive complaints, physical and mental functioning, medical utilization, somatic symptoms, and psychopathology.
