Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an 8-week course that cultivates mindfulness skills and explores common and unique life-challenges within a safe, supportive group learning environment. By sharing challenges, successes and obstacles, individuals within groups tap a deep well of resources, enhanced by a variety of backgrounds and life experiences. MBSR is a skill building course, and although it can be therapeutic, it is not therapy. The course consists of eight weekly 2 hour classes and full day retreat.
Participants receive:
- 24 total hours of instruction in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, which includes carefully sequenced mindfulness exercises, guided meditations, written exercises, group discussions, and mindful movement;
- A workbook and weekly handouts to reinforce the learning and provide support and reminders for home practice
- Weekly homework assignments;
- Teacher support between sessions
- Access to all meditation audio recordings
