MBSR, is an 8-week experiential learning experience that promotes physical and mental health, happiness and general well-being. This program is for people who wish to develop their innate ability to live more fully and with a deeper sense of ease in a stress-filled world.
​
The skills learned in this program can assist people to develop present moment awareness that supports living with more stress-resilience. These skills foster greater self-regulation, less emotional reactivity, and cultivate acceptance of present moment circumstances.
​
The benefits of practicing mindfulness are extensive and accessible to everyone. The latest research puts the practice of mindfulness at the top of the list for health-promoting lifestyles; along with sleep, good nutrition, and exercise.
The benefits may include: easing depression and anxiety, managing weight, preventing hypertension and heart disease, living better with chronic pain, and so much more.
Adopting mindfulness, like any other healthy lifestyle takes a commitment to learning and practicing. With a strong foundation, you can integrate mindfulness into your daily life.
Learn to live the best you can with what is, now.
