Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Programs

Manage Your Stress and Change Your Life!

When we experience chronic stress, sometimes our best go-to strategies don’t work anymore. When we’re stressed and overwhelmed, we can benefit from new methods of relief. If you experience any of these symptoms, you may be suffering from chronic stress.

Frequent infections or illnesses

Nervousness

Irritability

Fatigue

Low self-esteem

Headaches

Difficulty concentrating

Rapid or disorganized thoughts

Difficulty sleeping

Chronic pain impacted by stress

Digestive problems

Changes in appetite

Feeling helpless

A sense of loss of control

Through the 8-week MBSR program, developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn at UMASS Medical Center over 45 years ago, you can learn to stress less, sleep deeper, and live better. You’ll learn MBSR in real-time, which can’t be compared to meditating with an app. Mindfulness meditation can help you quiet the noise of stress and improve your work and life.
