A unique program to manage our stress and change our perspectives for wellbeing and resilience.
Stress Reduction and Cognitive Resilience can be a 1-2 hour taster workshop or an 8-lesson immersive course for mental habit change.
This unique program fuses the clinical rigor of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) with the evidence-based foundational practices of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). This integrated approach empowers you to not only manage acute stress but also dismantle the deep-seated mental habits that perpetuate anxiety and emotional exhaustion.
Each session weaves together the core MBSR elements that include the body scan, mindful movements, and breath awareness practice, to cultivate somatic awareness and release physical tension held in the body.
Simultaneously, the MBCT framework introduces cognitive tools such as the 3-step breathing space and thought decentering exercises, training you to recognize early warning signs of rumination and intercept spiraling thought patterns before they take hold.
Through guided inquiry, psychosomatic practices, and group dialogue, you will learn to shift from “doing” mode to “being” mode to become more aware of sensations, emotions, and thoughts with curiosity rather than judgment.
By the program’s conclusion, you will have enhanced self awareness to recover composure more quickly during setbacks, and self-compassion to sustain well-being.
