The 8-week MBSR course is experiential; it includes instruction in sitting meditation, mindfulness practices of eating, walking, movement, and kindness. You will learn how to return to the present moment, and how to make conscious choices rather than react unconsciously to stressors.
Some comments from past participants:
“You gave me the gift of a lifetime.” “I learned a lot about myself and how my conditioning and need for control contribute to my stress, and the tools to become more aware.” “This course has taught me how to be a better parent.” “I feel a sense of freedom now….like I don’t have to be afraid anymore.” “I usually just plow life through without pausing and noticing what’s going on with me – thank you for providing the wake-up call.” “The class was helpful to me, especially with the changes happening in my life.” “I am putting this class into practice, particularly given my health issues.” “This life-long practice is empowering…the course is well worth the time and effort.”
