Are you ready to be proactive about your health and well-being? Do you want to acquire new tools for living with more strength and resilience? Learning to incorporate mindfulness-based stress reduction practices (MBSR) into your life is a short-term investment that will help you live with greater ease, joy, depth, and balance every day.
This challenging and life-affirming workshop in mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is based on the 8-week Stress Reduction Program founded in 1979 by Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center. Highly respected within the medical community, the program supports health enhancement and wellness, with a focus on prevention and learning how to take good care of yourself.
Melissa Blacker and Florence Meleo-Meyer, directors of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) teacher development programs, adapt the lessons of the Stress Reduction Program to this 5-day intensive format and guide you in learning and practicing mindfulness skills in a safe, supportive, and highly participatory structured learning environment. Through group and individual instruction, you learn step-by-step how to practice and integrate mindfulness into your daily life, and rediscover the healthy balance that lies beneath life’s turbulent changes.
This workshop begins Sunday at 8:00 p.m. You must attend all 5 days.
Melissa Blacker, MA, and Florence Meleo-Meyer, MS, MA, are senior teachers and directors of MBSR teacher development programs at the Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. umassmed.edu/cfm
