MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction)

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a therapeutic program designed to help individuals manage stress and improve their well-being through mindfulness meditation and awareness techniques. Developed by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, MBSR combines mindfulness practices with principles of psychology. Participants learn to focus on the present moment, observe their thoughts and feelings without judgment, and cultivate a greater sense of calm and clarity. Typically offered as an 8-week course, MBSR has been shown to reduce anxiety, enhance emotional resilience, and promote a healthier lifestyle by fostering a deeper connection to oneself and the surrounding environment.
