How to Reduce Stress, Relieve Anxiety, and Enhance Your Focus – With Jon Kabat-Zinn
Have you ever left a three-day retreat, kirtan, group meditation, or spiritual lecture feeling a deep sense of love, knowing it's somehow your true nature . . .
Only to slip into old habits, feel deflated or let down, or even get into an argument with someone less than 24 hours later?
This happens to almost every practitioner who is honest about their experience. It's not really about what IF it happens, it's more about what to do WHEN it happens.
For that reason, we are excited to share this free mini-class and teaching by world-renowned mindfulness pioneer Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, along with two master teachers of the training method he developed.

His Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) methodology has been scientifically tested more than any other mindfulness practice on the planet.
Why does that matter?
Because the ability to integrate this technique is baked into the method itself.
There have been all sorts of scans done on people's brains when they immerse themselves in this practice (even just for a few minutes a day) and the results are indisputable.
People who practice MBSR report less anxiety, less physical and emotional pain, and less stress. They develop more resilience and the grey matter in their brain changes.
Neuroplasticity—changing the grooves and patterns of how our brain functions—is an important key to healthier relationships and a lived experience of the practices we're spending so much time learning and doing.
The world can do what it does, but MBSR practitioners are less likely to get caught in the endless chain of reaction that leads to suffering based on what's happening outside of us.
Jon and two of his top teachers, Dr. Saki Santorelli and Florence Meleo-Meyer, created a free audio teaching that can help you bring your practice from the meditation cushion into your life with measurable results.
This is a great opportunity to learn more about integrating your meditation practice into all aspects of your life, including your health and your relationships—for the benefit of us all.

What Is MBSR – Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is a basic human quality, a way of learning to pay attention to whatever is happening in your life that allows you a greater sense of connection to your life—inwardly and outwardly.
More than three decades of scientific research at medical centers all over the world suggests that training in mindfulness and MBSR can positively and often profoundly affect participants’ ability to reduce stress, pain, illness, and medical symptoms while also learning to live life more fully.
Mindfulness is a way of learning to relate directly to whatever is happening in your life, a way of taking charge of your life, a way of consciously and systematically working with your own stress, pain, illness, and the challenges and demands of everyday life.
In contrast, you’ve probably encountered moments of “mindlessness”—a loss of awareness resulting in forgetfulness, separation from self, and a sense of living mechanically.
Restoring within yourself a balanced sense of health and well-being requires increased awareness of all aspects of self, including body and mind, heart and soul. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is intended to ignite this inner capacity and infuse your life with awareness.
Mindfulness is not something that you have to “get” or acquire. It is already within you—a deep internal resource available and patiently waiting to be released and used in the service of learning, growing, and healing. While the practices have been adapted from classical Buddhist meditation and yoga traditions, MBSR is a secular, scientifically informed approach that operates in harmony with any belief system or spiritual background.

Clinically Proven Benefits of MBSR
- Stress Reduction: From work, school, family, finances, illness, aging, grief, uncertainty about the future, and feeling “out of control”
- Decreased Medical Symptoms: Including chronic illness or pain, high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, cancer, heart disease, asthma, GI distress, skin disorders, headaches, and many other conditions
- Health Enhancement: Improved wellness and prevention; learning the “how” of taking good care of yourself and feeling a greater sense of resilience and balance
- Overcome Distress: Enhanced ability to overcome psychological distress such as panic attacks, depression, fatigue, and insomnia
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is highly respected within the medical community. It is not offered as an alternative to traditional medical and psychological treatments but as a complement to these approaches.
Our experiences over nearly three decades suggest that doing what you can for yourself, coupled with what your physician can do for you, can be far more effective than either approach on its own.
