Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR)

What is Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) ?
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an evidence-based program designed to help you manage stress, anxiety, and chronic pain through mindfulness practices. Developed by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, MBSR combines meditation, body awareness, and gentle movements to help you respond to life’s challenges with greater calm and clarity.
By practicing mindfulness, you learn to observe your thoughts and emotions without judgment, breaking free from reactive patterns and cultivating a sense of balance and awareness. MBSR is widely used to address conditions such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, and stress-related health issues.
