Stress Reduction Clinic (Kabat-Zinn)

The Stress Reduction Clinic, founded by Jon Kabat-Zinn, offers programs focused on mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR). It teaches individuals to cultivate present-moment awareness through practices like meditation, body scans, and gentle yoga. This approach helps people manage stress, reduce pain, and improve overall well-being by fostering acceptance and non-judgmental attention to their thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. The clinic’s methods are evidence-based, widely used in healthcare settings, and aim to enhance mental and physical health by promoting greater mindfulness and resilience.
