Body Mind Training Project

Aim 1: Assess the feasibility, safety and efficacy of a Qigong intervention in elderly prostate cancer survivors. Describe participation, retention, and adherence rates and assess reasons for participation, attrition, and non-adherence. Identify effective recruitment and retention strategies. Ascertain participants\' level of satisfaction and additional perceptions of the experimental and control interventions, perceived study burden, study design, and implementation. Aim 2: Provide preliminary data on potential effects of Qigong vs. non-aerobic stretching exercises on fatigue, psychosocial outcomes, and health-related quality of life in preparation for a future R01 application for a larger, definitive randomized controlled trial. Hypothesis: Qigong participants will have improved fatigue levels, quality of life, and related psychosocial and health outcomes compared to those randomized to the non-aerobic stretching group.
