Jon Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction

Jon Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a structured program that teaches individuals to cultivate mindfulness—focused, non-judgmental awareness of the present moment. Through practices like meditation, body scans, and gentle movement, participants learn to observe their thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations with acceptance. This approach helps reduce stress, improve emotional regulation, and enhance overall well-being by fostering a deeper connection to present experiences. MBSR is often used to complement traditional healthcare for managing stress, pain, anxiety, and other conditions, empowering people to respond more skillfully to life's challenges.
