*MBSR COURSE at Sphere, Geneva
Mindfulness based stress reduction course
Mindfulness-based stress reduction is a group program that was developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn in the 1970s to treat patients struggling with life’s difficulties and physical and/or mental illness (Kabat-Zinn, 2013). Although it was initially created to aid hospital patients, it has since been used effectively by a wide range of people from all walks of life.
More than 24,000 people have taken advantage of the MBSR program the center debuted in 1979 (Center for Mindfulness, 2017).
MBSR is a flexible approach to stress reduction. During the course, participants practice mindfulness meditation and gentle yoga, breathing exercise, and learn how to take better care of themselves and live healthier and more adaptive lives
The 8 week-course includes an Orientation session, 8 weekly sessions each 2/2,5 hours long, 1 all day retreat.
The next MBSR course starts on the 24th of September 2019 at Sphere.
