Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Administration of a combined program for general (Mindfulness) and respiratory (Buteyko technique) relationship in patients with poorly controlled asthma and anxiety/stress to determine if it provides an improvement in current control and future risk of asthma.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A Mindfulness relaxation program and a Buteyko technique respiratory rehabilitation program will be administered individually and weekly, in 10 sessions (5 face-to-face and 5 telematic sessions afterwards). Patients will be visited 4 times (at inclusion, one month, 6 months and 12 months after the double intervention), where data on asthmatic morbidity, pulmonary function (spirometry), bronchial inflammation (FENO) will be collected and some questionnaires will be administered.
