The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of clinical meditation and imagery on decreasing anxiety in women at risk of repeat preterm deliveries. The secondary objective is to measure relevant biochemical and immune parameters such as cortisol, TNF, IL-1 that are sensitive markers to stress. It is of interest to investigate how these marker levels are affected by meditation and relaxation in the pregnant woman.
