About the MBSR Course



Mindfulness helps us restore and maintain a sense of well being and develop the skills to avoid emotional and physical depletion. The Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) course is modeled after the classes offered at the Stress Reduction Clinic, developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D., at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center. MBSR is an 8 week intensive program used as a complement to conventional medical management of a wide variety of types of illness, chronic pain, and depression. It allows people to mobilize their own inner resources of mind and body to become responsible for their personal health and healing. This program is internationally known and acclaimed by virtue of its broadly researched and documented healing work and has benefited the tens of thousands of people who’ve completed this course.

Persons who are interested in taking an active role in their own healthcare can learn skills that will help them reduce pain, promote health and wellness, and learn more positive responses to stress in their lives.

  • Chronic pain
  • Cancer
  • Job or family stress
