Mindfulness–Based Stress Reduction Programs

The Mindfulness–Based Stress Reduction Program is designed to teach mind and body awareness techniques to help live with physical or psychological symptoms due to stress, pain, or illness. It is based on the methods of Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D., at the UMass. Medical Center and was also featured on the Bill Moyers’ special, “Healing and the Mind.”

Mindfulness is the practice of cultivating non-judgmental awareness in day-to-day life. Mindfulness develops the potential to experience each moment, no matter how difficult or intense, with greater serenity and clarity. Meditation can help one feel better, sleep better, increase ability to cope with stressful situations, improve self-esteem and renew enthusiasm for life and work. One can feel more alive, joyful and gain immediate access to powerful inner resources for healing. Participants will learn life-long tools to help maximize life, even in the midst of stress, pain and illness.
