Come join us in San Diego at New Mindful Life on Monday evenings for an 8-week course in mindfulness. During this Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course participants learn ways to cultivate mindfulness so that they can meet the challenges of life (including stress, pain and illness) with greater ease, confidence and resiliency through group and individual meditation practices, mental exercises, discussions, and presentations.
The benefits to a more mindful approach to life are endless.
Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Has Been Shown To:
- Improve overall health and self confidence
- Increase relaxation
- Give participants a greater sense of compassion
- Reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression
- Decrease pain
MBSR is an experiential learning program, intended to engage the mind and the body. The course uses a combination of techniques to strengthens one’s ability to experience mindful awareness in daily life, and to access the strength and wisdom that lie within.
In addition to the weekly meetings, MBSR course particpants will receive guided meditation audio and “homework” exercise to work on each week to strengthen their practice. The home practice is an essential part of the course. The MBSR course is designed to accommodate any adult, including those with serious illnesses, chronic pain, and physical limitations.
