The Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program

This workshop teaches strategies for successfully managing our lives and the stress in them. Mindfulness is being aware, learning to live and BE in the present moment. By seizing the present and living fully within each moment as it happens, one can reduce anxiety, improve health and job performance, achieve inner peace plus enrich the quality of life.

We are often hurrying from place to place, from task to task. We think about tomorrow, next week, and next month, but rarely about the moment we are in right now. Night time comes and we do not know where the day went. Pretty soon we do not know where the years have gone.

Many times as our bodies are fast in motion, but our minds are elsewhere. We go into what is called “auto pilot”. Think about when you are driving a car. How many times, when you arrive at your destination, do you wonder, “How did I get here”? Our minds are consumed with thoughts about what we have to do, how to do it, what will happen, what he did, what she said, etc. Often times these thoughts are negative, i.e. worries, fears, doubts, etc.

This takes it’s toll us physically, mentally and emotionally.

When under stress:

Frequent stress can damage the body, often leading to discomfort or pain. It is a contributing factor in many if not most disease processes. Stress can lead to greater susceptibility to illness, infection and nutritional problems. It can manifest as high blood pressure, changes in blood sugar, ulcers, headaches, hypertension, colitis, depression, anxiety and heart disease, just to name a few.
