FREE Orientation to MBSR

  • Grand Street Healing Project 105 Grand Street Brooklyn, NY, 11249 United States (map)

Are you interested in learning more about mindfulness-based stress reduction and how it can help improve your life? Come to a free orientation session introducing my MBSR course at the Grand Street Healing Project in Brooklyn, NY.

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a structured program (including an orientation, eight class sessions and an all-day retreat) that helps you develop a range of practical mindfulness skills, which can help you to:

  • Become more resilient 

  • Respond less to stress

  • Cultivate self-awareness

  • Practice self-compassion

MBSR was developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, who is considered to be the father of mindfulness in America, at the University of Massachusetts more than 35 years ago. 

This MBSR course will help you lay the foundation for a regular mindfulness practice through meditation practices and gentle yoga. Together, we’ll explore our responses to stress through group discussion to increase our awareness and ability to incorporate mindfulness into our daily lives.

Free Orientation: Thursday, October 10, 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm
(required if you intend to register for the class)
