PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Systematically and culturally adapt a mindfulness-based intervention to improve psychological wellbeing in Latino patients with advanced cancer and their family caregivers. II. Evaluate the feasibility of the adapted mindfulness-based intervention and overall study procedures in Latino patient-family caregiver dyads. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE: I. Determine the effects of the adapted mindfulness-based intervention on the secondary outcomes of patient and caregiver psychological distress, quality of life (QOL), and patient cancer symptoms, compared to a waitlist control. OUTLINE: Patients and their partners are randomized to 1 of 2 groups. GROUP I: Patients and their partners participate in mindfulness program over 60 minutes consisting of meeting with a mindfulness coach to build awareness of thoughts, emotions, feelings, and sensations 1 time per week (QW) for 4 weeks. GROUP II: Patients and their partners participate in mindfulness program as in Group I beginning 12 weeks after starting the study.
