Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (Jon Kabat-Zinn)

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, is a structured program that teaches individuals to focus their attention on the present moment with openness and curiosity. Through practices like meditation, body awareness, and gentle movement, participants learn to observe their thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations without judgment. This approach helps reduce stress, improve emotional regulation, and enhance overall well-being by fostering a greater sense of clarity and resilience in daily life. MBSR is widely used as a complementary therapy for managing stress, anxiety, chronic pain, and other health concerns.
