MINDFULNESS BASED STRESS REDUCTION (MBSR) COURSE

The Course consists of 8 two and a half hour sessions plus an all day session.

MINDFULNESS MEDITATION

Mindfulness is an approach to living rather than a technique. It is about living in the present moment, about being more awake and alive to our lives rather than operating from a sort of ‘automatic pilot’ in which we can be cut off from aspects of our experience.

Mindfulness promotes a way of being that helps us approach our present predicament with kindness and compassion, and is applicable over a range of conditions including stress, anxiety, depression and pain.
