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.
All sessions will be held at:
Centre Renaissance, 844 Autumnwood Drive. For further information please contact me directly at (204) 803-2002 or contact me here.
