MBSR is an 8-week evidence based, experiential program developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in 1979 and is currently shepherded by the Brown University Mindfulness Center.

MBSR was originally offered to hospital patients whose doctors had done all they could to treat their serious illnesses with traditional medical interventions. Jon Kabat-Zinn’s program offered them a different kind of intervention using formal mindfulness practices (a body scan, meditation, gentle yoga, walking meditation) and inquiry to help them develop skills to relate differently to the stresses in their lives.

First created in 1979, by Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D., MBSR has over 40 years of research that consistently demonstrates positive outcomes associated with increased self-awareness and emotional and attentional regulation. In addition, outcomes highlight statistically significant reductions in symptoms for various physical and behavioral health conditions including anxiety, depression and chronic pain, along with positive changes in risk factors that may lead to more serious chronic ailments.

Classes consist of formal mindfulness practices (a body scan, meditation, gentle yoga, walking meditation) and group processing with practical education about stress physiology as a way of assisting people with cultivating resources that will allow them to relate differently to the stresses in their lives.



Please join us to explore how mindfulness may support you in living life more fully, with greater ease and joy.
