Symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease and the leading cause of disability in industrialized countries. Therapeutic approaches to prevent the development and progression of osteoarthritis are disappointing and very limited. New therapeutic alternatives seem essential to better manage his daily life. Non-drug approaches, including psycho-corporal approaches are increasingly used in the management of chronic pain. Mindfulness is a technique of attention training, which is to focus one's attention on the present moment and to examine the sensations that come to mind, how they appear, how they last time, and how they disappear. Regarding rheumatological pathologies, a Mindfulness Program (MBSR) has shown its effectiveness in chronic pain; and in particular in osteo-articular localization, such as chronic low back pain. A recent study found a correlation between a pre-disposition to mindfulness and less pain and / or better quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis. However, to the knowledge of investigator, no study has evaluated the effectiveness of an intervention based on a mindfulness training program as a therapeutic alternative in osteoarthritis of the knee or hip. The goal of investigator is to evaluate, using a randomized, controlled study, the effect of a mindfulness program (according to the MBSR protocol) on pain, function, psychological state and quality of life patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis

Evaluate the efficacy of a mindfulness program as a treatment for hip or knee osteoarthritis on the WOMAC pain score.
Improvement in WOMAC pain before and after the program in the MBSR group compared to control group. The WOMAC is a validated index in the assessment of lower extremity osteoarthritis, by the system of rating the answers to questions by a visual analogue scale from 0 to 100 mm. It is possible to calculate the scores in each domain (pain, stiffness and function) or for the whole WOMAC. This is a self-administered questionnaire completed by the patient.
Time frame: 6 months
Changes in pain scores (VAS/100) between initiation visit and 3 months
EVA pain (visual analogue scale over 100 mm): one-dimensional measurement of the intensity of pain. EVA pain is a continuous scale consisting of a horizontal line from 0 (no pain) to 100 mm (maximum pain)
Time frame: 3 months
Changes in pain scores (VAS/100) between initiation visit and 6 months

Changes in OARSI-OMERACT response criteria between initiation visit and 3 months
The responder rate is defined by an improvement of 20%, with an absolute variation ≥ 10mm, on 2 of the following 3 measures: WOMAC pain, WOMAC function and / or overall assessment of disease activity by the patient. The overall evaluation of the patient's disease activity is performed on a 100 mm horizontal visual analogue scale (0 = inactive disease, 100 = highly active disease). It is used for the global assessment of the activity of the disease by the patient.

Changes in SF-36 score between initiation visit and 3 months
The SF-36 includes 36 items divided into 8 dimensions (physical functioning, limitations of functions related to physical health, physical pain, general health, vitality \[energy / fatigue\], functioning or social well-being, limitations of functions related to mental health, physical health) to which were added 4 items examining the cognitive functioning, from the "Medical Outcomes Study". This questionnaire was supplemented by questions aimed at clarifying the socio-demographic profile of the participants as well as the use of care services.

Changes in HAD score between initiation and 3 months
The Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) questionnaire assesses the psychological impact of the patient. It consists of 14 questions with 4 possible answers. This score makes it possible to differentiate a level of anxiety and a level of depression according to the answers. Each sub-scale varies from 0 to 21
