Study Description

Brief Summary: In this study two questions will be answered: * can mindfulness meditation help cell-changed on the cervix to disappear? * can mindfulness meditation lower the psychological distress when women have abnormal cervical cancer screening results?

Detailed Description: 200 women, who have participated in cervical cancer screening and have mild dysplasia, will be randomized into two groups; an intervention group and a control group. The intervention group will be asked to do mindfulness meditation twice a week listening to instructions from a CD. 200 additional women having normal cervical screening results will also be included in the project.
