A Taste of Mindfulness:
1 or 2-hour program

This one to two-hour program is designed to help those attending understand what Mindfulness is and how it can be cultivated both personally and professionally. The workshop includes group discussion on the ways mindfulness can support us in dealing with stress and how to integrate it into our daily lives.

Half-Day Program

This 4-hour program is designed to enhance the understanding of Mindfulness by highlighting the most current research, and by having a direct first-hand experience with practice.   The 4-hour class allows time for two guided meditation practices, group dialogue and discussion relating to stress reaction, communication, or self-care.

Full-Day Program

This 7-hour program is designed to enhance the understanding of Mindfulness by highlighting the most current research, and by having a direct first-hand experience with practice.  The 7-hour class allows time for three guided meditation practices and group dialogue.  Additionally, in this session we will explore in-depth stress reaction, and communication or self-care, while working in both small and large groups.

In-Office Retreat Program: 2 days

This program is highly adaptable and can be custom designed to fit the needs of the organization. The program can have a focus on experiential practice and discussions or a focus that meets your specific organizational needs.  We have options such as mindful leadership, communication, stress reactivity and self-care.

8-week On-Site MBSR Program

The 8-week MBSR program is a unique opportunity for participants to have a highly experiential experience with mindfulness.  Throughout the 8-weeks participants will participate in guided meditations, mindful movement, and small and large group discussions. There will be weekly home practice assignments that include a daily meditation practice, along with other small journaling assignments. The course will help participants tap into the internal resources that already exist within themselves. For many, this can result in an increase in stress hardiness and resilience. The instructor will help navigate challenges with the practice and highlight learning areas. The course is structured to help the participants find ways to cultivate mindfulness into their daily lives so that they can receive the benefits far beyond the 8-week course.

The 8-week experiential MBSR program was an awesome introduction to a mindfulness practice. Prior to the program, I had never invested much time into mindfulness but I quickly realized that I had been missing out. The educational course was truly enlightening and sparked my interest in learning more. When practicing the guided meditations, I experienced both a calmness and awareness that I had not experienced before. I felt my stress levels and anxiety drop from the very beginning. It made me want to learn more about mindfulness and develop an ongoing practice. I truly benefited from the experience and continue to practice mindfulness to this day because of this course. I highly recommend that everyone gives this course and experience a chance. Prepare to have your mind strengthened and experience a level of calmness you have not yet experienced.
