WHAT IS M.B.S.R. TRAINING?

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (M.B.S.R.) online, is a 9-Lesson
evidence-based program offering secular, intensive mindfulness training to
assist people with stress, anxiety, depression, and pain. 

You learn and train at your own speed.

Mindfulness training is a practical approach that trains attention, allowing
people to cultivate awareness and to have more choices. MBSR training uses a
combination of mindfulness meditation, body awareness, yoga, and exploration of
patterns of behavior, thinking, feeling, and action. Mindfulness can be
understood as the non-judgemental acceptance and “open-hearted” investigation of
present moment experiences. MBSR training includes awareness of body sensations,
internal mental states, thoughts, emotions, impulses, and memories.  This
reduces stress and anxiety and increases well-being. (Kabat-Zinn,
2003) Source-Wikipedia Jon Kabat-Zinn, talks & training

WHAT IS MINDFULNESS?

BROADLY DEFINED, MINDFULNESS IS LEARNING HOW TO USE OUR NATURAL MENTAL FACULTIES
OF ATTENTION & INTENTION. WE FIRST BRING A NON-JUDGMENTAL ATTENTION, TO OUR
DAILY LIFE EXPERIENCES. THEN WE CHOOSE A WISE INTENTION, TO MATCH ANY OF OUR
LIFE EXPERIENCES. THIS DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF OUR LIFE, RESULTS IN MORE HEALTH
& HAPPINESS. AS WE PRACTICE MINDFULNESS WE HAVE LESS STRESS & MORE CALMNESS,
CLARITY AND CHOICES. JON KABAT-ZINN, TALKS & TRAINING


WHAT IS MINDFULNESS BASED STRESS REDUCTION TRAINING?

Mindfulness training is a way of learning to consciously and systematically work
with stress, pain, illness, and the challenges and demands of everyday life by
not turning away from them but learning how to be resilient with and through
them.

Mindfulness is already within the human experience. A deep internal resource of
attention, intention and attitude that is available to us. Mindfulness is
patiently waiting to be used in the service of learning, growing and healing.

Original Jon Kabat-Zinn MBSR program.

“Mindfulness is moment to moment, non-judgmental awareness.”  -Jon Kabat Zinn ,
Ph.D. (1990)

HISTORY OF MINDFULNESS BASED STRESS REDUCTION:

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) was founded by John Kabat Zinn at the
University of Massachusetts Medical Center in 1979.  MBSR has now spread to
multiple populations including health professionals and medical and nursing
students, as well as in numerous settings including work places and educational
institutions.

 * Greater energy and enthusiasm for life
 * Reductions in pain levels and an enhanced ability to cope with pain
 * An ability to cope more effectively with both short and long-term stressful
   situations.

MINDFULNESS IS NOT:

Mindfulness is not something that one gets or acquires. It is already within the
human experience. A deep internal resource of attention, intention and attitude.
That is available to us and is patiently waiting to be observed and used in the
service of learning, growing, and healing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is MBSR?

MBSR stands for mindfulness-based stress reduction. Developed by Professor Jon
Kabat-Zinn, MBSR is a program that offers mindfulness training to help people
deal with stress, anxiety, depression, and pain. Similar to many techniques that
aim to help individuals reduce stress and help the mind and body relax, MBSR
uses a combination of mindful meditation, yoga, and body awareness strategies to
help you become present in the moment and focus on the sensations and feelings
that you have.

MBSR was originally created to mainly help individuals with stress and anxiety.
It helps you become attuned to your present emotions and sensations throughout
the body so you can focus on relieving the symptoms and triggers that cause your
stress and anxiety. Nowadays, many people use MBSR to treat a variety of
illnesses and symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, chronic pain, cancer,
immune disorders, and more.

MBSR sessions typically last eight weeks and are very beneficial for patients or
individuals that don’t respond well to more traditional and common treatments
for their illnesses or conditions. When you practice mindfulness-based stress
reduction, you train your mind and body to become self-aware. This allows you to
become more focused throughout your day and make decisions that are reasoned
out.

Individuals that are trained to teach MBSR typically encourage you to
incorporate general mindfulness throughout your daily routine to make each day
more purposeful. You can learn how to identify stressful and anxious situations
in your life, as well as how to respond to these situations in a healthy way.

How to practice meditation to reduce stress

Various levels of stress affect many people every day. Some individuals
experience higher levels of stress and have symptoms that prohibit them from
completing many activities in their daily lives. Other people might experience
lower levels of stress or only during specific moments in their lives. While
stress is normal, it can be challenging if you feel constantly overwhelmed or
don’t have the right tools to deal with your stress.

Meditation is a great way to help you reduce stress levels, so you can become
calmer and respond to the symptoms in a healthier way. Here are some ways you
can practice meditation to reduce your stress levels:

GET INTO A COMFORTABLE POSITION

An important part of an effective meditation session is choosing the right
environment. Noise, bright lights, and other distractions may prevent your body
and mind from relaxing fully. Before you meditate, pick a place that makes you
feel comfortable and at ease. This could be a dark corner of your room, on your
bed, your living room, or even in your backyard. Wherever you choose to
meditate, ensure you can fully concentrate on the thoughts and sensations of
your mind and body.

A comfortable position also means that your posture is correct. This makes it
easier for you to sit still for longer periods of time. If you feel
uncomfortable, you can fidget and move around, which makes it harder for you to
concentrate on the meditation. Eventually, your body should get used to the
specific posture you use, which will help you slowly lengthen your meditation
sessions.

CLOSE YOUR EYES

Closing your eyes helps you eliminate visual distractions when you meditate,
which helps the body and mind naturally relax as you focus on your breathing.
Once you’re in a comfortable position, slowly close your eyes gently. Ensure you
relax the muscles around your face. The goal is to allow your eyes to guide the
rest of your body into relaxation as you slowly eliminate the other distractions
from your surroundings.

RELAX YOUR MUSCLES

When you’re stressed, your body naturally tenses up, which makes it hard for you
to become comfortable and relaxed. Focus on each part of your body, starting
from your head all the way to your toes. Start to relax each part of your body
by releasing the built-up tension. Focus on your breathing as you work your way
through the body. This helps you relax and loosen the muscles.

DEEP BREATHING

Deep breathing helps your mind and body stay focused in the present instead of
wandering about thoughts or the future. Take deep breaths and hold at the top of
each breath to really emphasize each breath you take. As you start to focus on
your breathing, you’ll notice that your mind starts to clear and your body
naturally relaxes.

BE CONSISTENT

Meditation can seem like a challenge or chore at the beginning because it can be
hard for the mind to relax fully, even for a short period. With practice and
consistency, you’ll be able to train your body to meditate for longer periods of
time. This will help you with stress reduction and allow you to carry on with
your routine with a healthier mindset.

Who should enroll in the training?

Stress reduction not only helps the body but also the mental and emotional state
of individuals. Many physical, mental, and emotional symptoms we experience are
tied to the level of stress we feel. Stress manifests in different ways and
certain environments can trigger stress-induced symptoms that are more severe.

Although MBSR was mostly used to treat individuals with chronic illnesses,
anyone can benefit from it nowadays. MBSR is great for stress reduction, dealing
with anxiety, treating diabetes, and managing psychosocial issues. Anyone with
lower blood pressure, trouble with sleep, heart disease, pain, and
gastrointestinal issues can also benefit from practicing mindfulness-based
stress reduction.

How much time is required to complete the course?

An MBSR session is eight weeks long. During the program, each session is
typically around two and a half hours long. The first session might take longer
than an average session as you’re learning about what MBSR is, its benefits, and
how to practice it correctly.

The last session might also be a bit longer than the two and a half hours as you
reflect on what you learned and how MBSR has helped you throughout the eight
weeks. You might also reflect on some ways you can incorporate the practices and
strategies you learned during the eight-week program into your routine. This
helps you incorporate mindfulness into your daily life.

What are participants required to complete?

There are a few components to the MBSR program:

 1. MEDITATION

Meditation is a common technique that individuals use to reduce stress and
increase self-awareness. It helps increase your patience and tolerance by
focusing on your breathing for extended periods of time each day. Not only can
it help you become more aware of the present, but it can also help you flush out
any negativity or bad thoughts.

Individuals that practice meditation each day experience overall increased
productivity and mood as they approach each day with more mindfulness and
purpose.

 2. YOGA

Yoga is a gentle exercise that helps the body move and flow better. It improves
your flexibility, core, and muscle strength. Yoga can also help you improve your
lungs, cardio, energy, and vitality. Once your body feels less tense and tight,
you typically feel a lot more relaxed and rejuvenated.

Frequent yoga sessions can also improve your athletic performance and protect
you from injury throughout the day.

 3. BODY AWARENESS

Body awareness means you’re attuned to the sensations your body feels. These
sensations might be relaxation, pain, discomfort, aches, fatigue, or warmth.
You’re also more aware of your physicality, such as your strength, balance, and
weight. When you become aware of these sensations, you have a better
understanding of what your body feels under different circumstances.

As a result, you can work on identifying ways to mitigate some of the negative
sensations based on specific triggers. You can also work on increasing the
amount of positive sensations you feel.

 4. BEHAVIORAL AWARENESS

Behavioral awareness is the acknowledgement and understanding of the strengths
and weaknesses in your behavior and actions. For example, cautious, ambitious,
confident, logical, curious, and organized are all types of behaviors that you
might exhibit. Behaviors can cause specific patterns in our thoughts and actions
that influence the way we make decisions or interact with others.

 5. EMOTIONAL AWARENESS

Emotional awareness is the ability to acknowledge and understand the feelings
you have. For example, it can help you identify whether you’re feeling sad,
happy, or anxious and the triggers that bring these feelings. Increased
emotional awareness helps you construct tools to help you cope or control the
way you express your emotions.

Is prior meditation or mindfulness training required?

Prior meditation or mindfulness training might help you understand the purpose
of mindfulness-based stress reduction better, but it’s not required for you to
start MBSR. There are both coaching and teaching resources available for you to
immerse yourself in the benefits of mindfulness-based stress reduction.

These resources will guide you through the different components and phases of
mindfulness-based stress reduction. With the eight-week program and the tools
that you learn from it, you can experience the benefits of MBSR even after the
program ends. These tools help you live a more fulfilled and conscious life.

What is included in an MBSR training program?

In this 9-module online MBSR program you will work at your own speed. You will
gain strategies to help you perform body scans, gentle yoga, and sitting
meditation. 

As a University of Massachusetts Medical School qualified and experienced
instructor I will provide guidance throughout the 9-modules, so you can optimize
the benefits you experience. 

Some ‌strategies provided include guided imagery and breathing methods to help
you reduce stress.

Participants practice one of these strategies each day to help them become more
aware and in control of their stress. They also become more mindful of their
actions and thoughts each day to live more purposefully.
