Course Summary
Stressors are inevitable and usually out of our control, however, how we perceive and cope with our stress can change the way we experience day to day overwhelm, difficult times, and overall quality of life. This 8 week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Course is adapted from the curriculum of Jon Kabat- Zinn. In 1979 Kabat-Zinn a professor of medicine, founded the Stress Reduction Clinic and Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and his curriculum has been used as the basis for hundreds of studies showing the numerous benefits of a Mindfulness Practice.
