Introduction to Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction

Janet Solyntjes

March 6–8, 2015

Tuition $150 + 2 nights

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a program of practical, scientifically-supported teachings to reduce stress, facilitate relaxation, and promote physical health and emotional well-being. Inspired by the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn, this retreat offers tools for engaging the demands of our lives, including illness, chronic pain, personal crisis, or the ongoing challenges of a “full catastrophe.” By relating directly with our bodies and emotions, we’ll discover the power of mindfulness to change our lives. Through sitting, walking, and body scan meditation practices—as well as mindful yoga—we will return to our lives better equipped to manage stress.

Recommended for stressed out people from all walks of life.
