This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a program called Mindful Steps that combines a step-tracking device, online exercise classes, motivational videos, and community support to help people with chronic lung disease (COPD) or heart failure move more. The program runs for 12 months and is delivered entirely online, so you can participate from home. Half of participants will get access to the full Mindful Steps program, while the other half will receive standard care and educational materials.
People with chronic lung and heart disease often struggle to stay physically active, which can worsen their condition. This study is testing whether adding technology, guidance, and mind-body exercise to usual care helps patients stick with activity and feel better.

If you join, you'll be randomly assigned to either the Mindful Steps program or usual care. The Mindful Steps group will use a wearable step counter, set personalized walking goals, watch short exercise videos, join online group classes, and connect with others in an online community — all from home. Everyone participates for 12 months, with check-ins at 3, 6, and 12 months, plus a final follow-up visit at 15 months to measure how many steps you're taking and how you're feeling.
