MBSR – Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction

Created by Jon Kabat-Zinn in 1979, this carefully considered curriculum is informed by neuroscience, psychology and educational methods that emphasise experiential, group and discovery learning. Regarded, internationally, as the ‘gold standard’, taking part in this programme gives people the opportunity to develop a personalised mindfulness practice, with the support of a small-group setting over 8 weeks (+1 day). The curriculum has been widely researched and yielded significant health benefits for people, physically and psychologically.

This course is suitable for all kinds of beginners. Due to the more intensive and sustained nature of this curriculum, coupled with the impact of modern living on our human nervous system, training with an appropriately qualified guide and teacher is recommended by the international mindfulness teaching and training communities.
