\n\tMindfulness-Based Stress Reduction- Now Enrolling<\/u><\/strong>
\n\tMindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is an in-person 8-week program that helps participants learn to manage today’s busy lifestyles in a healthy way.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWhat can I expect from the in-person course?<\/strong>
\n\tThe eight-week program includes weekly two-hour classes plus a retreat. Classes include instruction in formal mindfulness practices (meditation, body scan, mindful yoga, and walking meditation). Weekly, at-home practice assignments help develop mindfulness skills and take mindfulness into everyday life. Regular class attendance and a commitment of 30 minutes of practice per day for the entire duration of the course are recommended. CD\/DVDs of the body scan, sitting meditation, and yoga sessions–plus a manual–will be provided as learning aids.\n<\/p>\n
