A breathing technique called Pursed Lipped Breathing (PLB) has been proven to be beneficial for patients with COPD. PLB can ease shortness of breath and reduce stress and anxiety. This study will develop a mindful PLB module to compliment an already developed home based pulmonary rehabilitation program. In this study, patients will be randomized to either a group that does the home based pulmonary rehabilitation with the mindful breathing module and health coaching or a group that does the home based pulmonary rehabilitation with health coaching without the mindful breathing module. Both groups will do the home based pulmonary rehabilitation for 12 weeks. In addition there are questionnaires and the wearing of an activity monitor when you sign up and at 3 and 6 months.
