What to expect
6-Week Program: September 25 - October 30, 2024
Wednesdays 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM via Zoom
Join our expert facilitator, Lisa Sheehan, this September/October on Zoom, for an Introduction to the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program created at UMASS Medical School by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn in 1979. With concepts and practices drawn directly from the original 8-week MBSR program, this is an experiential, introspective program that examines the science behind mindfulness, the psychology and physiology of stress, and encompasses a variety of mindfulness techniques, including meditation. Explore how mindfulness supports present moment awareness of sensations, thoughts, and emotions - building internal resources to manage stress and our responses.

All sign ups are tax deductible and donations for scholarships are encouraged for those that have the means.
