Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is an 8-week program.  It provides participants with intensive training in mindfulness meditation and movement practices, and helps them integrate the teachings into daily life.

MBSR has over 40 years of research demonstrating positive outcomes associated with increased self-awareness and emotional and attentional regulation. Research also demonstrates reductions in symptoms of anxiety, depression and chronic pain, along with positive changes in risk factors that may lead to more serious chronic conditions.

Throughout the program participants systematically work with the challenges of everyday life, learning to:

• Cope more effectively with stressful situations, responding rather than reacting

• Manage and often reduce physical and emotional discomfort

• Approach life with more composure, understanding and joy

• Be present and appreciate the simple pleasures of everyday life
