Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction
The 8-week MBSR course is for anyone interested in boosting their wellbeing, by finding new ways to live with more energy, focus and compassion.
It’s designed to support you if you are experiencing, or have experienced, stress, anxiety, depression or chronic pain which negatively impacts your life.
With a maximum of 10 people, you will learn about mindfulness through a variety of different meditations, group discussions and teachings. Read testimonials from past participants.
Amongst other things, over the course of 8 weeks you will learn:
How to be aware of your body and how this can support you in difficult or stressful situations
How to be more compassionate, gentle and kind to yourself and other people and the transformative impact this can have on your life
About the negativity bias and ways in which you can rewire your brain to balance this with more positive experiences
Why people tend to react the way they do and how mindfulness helps you to respond in better ways
How to be aware of thoughts instead of caught up in them, believing them all. This awareness can lead to life changing behaviours through having more confidence, self-compassion and ambition
The course comprises a two-hour session every week for eight weeks. To get the most out of the experience, home practice will also be recommended.
