Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program (MBSR)

Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Program will help you learn how to intentionally cope better with pain, illness and the stress of the modern life. The eight week program was founded by Jon Kabat-Zinn.

Participants will learn mindfulness meditation practices and build upon their own personal strengths. They will gain a better understanding of the effects of stress, and respond more effectively to challenges, such as: Chronic pain, Depression, Sleep Disorders, Job School Stress, Family, Fear/Anxiety. Participants will engage in an experiential journey with guided meditations; mindful movements; meditation practice recordings; a participant workbook, an all day Mindfulness practice retreat.

One day Mindfulness Retreats

Welcome to a mindful and restorative full day retreat prepared just for you!

The Mindfulness retreat will include the following Mindfulness practices:

• Mindful eating and walking

• Sitting Meditation and Body Scan

• Mindful Body Movements (light yoga)

• Discussion and Exploration on coping with stress in our lives

The retreat will incorporate Mindfulness practices from the 8 week program Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) developed by Dr. Jon Kabat Zinn, practitioner and author who developed the Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts Medical Centre. The retreat is intended to be a purposeful, reflective pause, to restore and rejuvenate! My hope is that you will join me and take the time to nourish and be with yourself!

Mindfulness Book Club

The intention of the Mindfulness Book Club is to invite participants to participate in learning more about Mindfulness and its benefits through attending a Mindfulness book club. We will read a Mindfulness book, a few chapters per week for 4 weeks, have a discussion and incorporate meditation practices throughout our time together. The Mindfulness book is always different and I offer a Spring and Fall session.
