WHAT IS MBSR?
MBSR is an 8-week systematic program developed by Jon Kabat Zinn in the late 1970s and applied successfully with individuals and institutional settings.
WHAT HAPPENS IN MBSR?
In an MBSR Course, we learn in a joyful, interactive way, supported by a group:
What stress is (physiological mechanism of stress)
What triggers stress in me
When stressed, which thoughts, feelings arise and what do I do automatically
How can I learn to recognize stress, learn ways to calm my mind and body and choose to respond mindfully
How can I learn to take care of my mind and body and respect my limits to nourish holistic health and prevent burnout
How can I learn to take care of myself to nourish my positive thought, emotional and bodily habits and liberate myself from those that lead to vicious cycles
The gains are:
increased body awareness and body flexibility
focused and calmer mind
effective communication skills
improvement in perspective taking
learning to give love and compassion to self and others
learning and respecting own physical and mental boundaries
learning to take care of self (physically and mentally)
