Study Summary
The goal of this feasibility study and clinical trial is to learn if an evidenced-based breathwork and meditation intervention (SKY Breath) will improve the mental and physical well-being of individuals with Parkinson's Disease (iPD) in stages 1, 2, and 3, under the age of 75 and their care partners. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Objective 1: Can the SKY Breath practice be designed and implemented to specifically cater to the unique needs of individuals with Parkinson's Disease and their care partners. * Objective 2: Will the SKY Breath practice decrease stress levels (a contributor to increasing PD symptoms) for individuals with Parkinson\'s Disease (iPD) and their care partners as measured through self-reported surveys to improve overall well-being and quality of life. * Objective 3: Will the SKY Breath practice in part alleviate the emotional stress and physical burden experienced by care partners of PD patients, promoting their resilience and well-being. Participants will be asked to learn the SKY Breath and Meditation practice over the course of 4 days (2.25 hours each morning), practice SKY every day for 4 weeks and keep a log of time spent doing SKY. The participants will complete a series of surveys before learning the practice and then after at weeks 1, 4 and 8. The series of surveys will take about 20 minutes.
Primary Outcome
Improving the feelings of pressure and overwhelm measured before and after intervention from self-reported stress scales. Individuals with Parkinson's Disease evaluated on: * Parkinson's Disease Anxiety Scale- Scoring 0-48. Higher score=greater anxiety. * Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) -Scores from 0-40; higher scores=higher perceived stress.
