Changing Impulsivity With Mindful Breathing Therapy to Reduce Problem Drinking

The investigators plan to establish the efficacy of a novel breathing-based mindfulness training (BBMT, a much simplified, easy-to-use version of standard MM) for problem drinking, and test whether impulsivity mediates this effect among a sample of student problem drinkers (i.e., \> 8 on AUDIT, the problem drinking Screening Test). The specific aims of this pilot study are as follows: 1. to modify and further develop the easy-to-use BBMT program for directly targeting impulsivity to produce an indirect reduction in problem drinking among college students; 2. to investigate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of applying BBMT for reducing problem drinking with a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT); 3. to examine changes in impulsivity, as measured by both behavioral and self-report assessments, as one of the possible mediators in the effect of BBMT on problem drinking, with control for changes in perceived stress and anxiety.
