Testimonial
"As a teacher, there are some things that are beyond our control. There are mandates we have not created and expectations from different sources (administrators, parents, students, and myself). I find that my stress eating has decreased and I am finding that peaceful place through the use of mindfulness techniques."
Sonya Silva, Marjory Stoneman Douglas Elementary, MBSR

“You are the world expert on your life, your body, and your mind, or at least you are in the best position to become that expert if you observe carefully. Part of the adventure of meditation is to use yourself as a laboratory to find out who you are and what you are capable of doing.”
Jon Kabat-Zinn - Full Catastrophe Living.
Mindfulness is a way of learning to relate directly to whatever is unfolding in your life, moment-to-moment, with awareness, compassion, acceptance, and curiosity. This course is a secular, scientifically informed approach that operates in harmony with any belief system or spiritual background and can be practiced by people of all backgrounds. No prior experience is necessary.
Over four decades of scientific research at medical centers all over the world demonstrate that training in mindfulness can positively and profoundly affect participants’ ability to reduce medical symptoms and psychological distress while learning to live life with more enjoyment and balance.
