Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction
Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an 8-week program that supports participants to learn about and build a practice of mindfulness and meditation.
The program is both educational and experiential, incorporating multiple forms of meditation and mindful movement. MBSR was developed at the University of Massachusetts by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn and has since been studied and found to be an effective intervention for many people, including those with cancer. The program runs once per week for 8 weeks, 2.5 hours per session.
There is a 30 minute orientation session at the beginning of the first session and a half-day retreat part way through the program. We ask that you commit to the full length of the course to gain the full benefit.
