Not only does this affect our bodies and minds, but it can negatively impact our work performance, relationships with others, and ability to be present with those around us. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an 8-week, evidence-based program designed to instruct participants in mindfulness meditation for stress reduction and improved overall well-being. This course will guide you on your journey towards self-care. Participants will engage in a variety of guided practices, self-reflection exercises, group discussion, home practices, and an optional half-day silent retreat. Each participant will be encouraged to develop a home-based practice with support from class and available audio recordings. You will learn how to use your focused attention to tune into your body, calm your mind, regulate your nervous system, and establish a deeper connection with yourself. Using this awareness, participants will learn how to implement effective tools and techniques to mindfully approach stress, anxiety, fear, pain, illness, relationships, and the continual demands of everyday life. This course is designed to meet the needs of each individual on their mindfulness journey, and all levels and experience are welcome and encouraged to join. We ask that you commit to attending all classes to the best of your ability, and hope you take this opportunity to discover how mindfulness can positively affect the quality of your everyday life!
