"Smile, breathe, and go slowly." - Thich Nhat Hanh
Turn inward to change your world.
The mind, body, heart, and spirit are interconnected. With mindfulness and meditation practices, this connection can be strengthened and brought into alignment. When we cultivate harmony and balance, we live with more ease, resilience, and well-being.
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is a powerful tool for promoting mind-body harmony.
MBSR is an evidence-based 8-week program originally developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, PhD at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center in 1979. The program teaches mindfulness techniques to help train your brain to stay in the present moment, and to cultivate stillness and the opportunity to respond instead of react.

Testimonials
“My awareness in general, has increased significantly over the course of the 8-week class and I would absolutely do it again. I’ve gained many tools from this shared practice and would recommend this class to anyone – especially those that may struggle with anxious thoughts or preconceived notions about what mindfulness “is or should be”.”
