Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Course<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Scientific evidence of the health and mental health benefits of mindfulness derive principally from studies of this 8-week MBSR program.

The course entails weekly 2.5-hour virtual sessions, 45 minutes of daily home practices, and a 4-hour virtual silent retreat. The program is based on the template developed by Jon Kabat Zinn of the University of Massachusetts School of Medicine. This course will be co-facilitated by Dr. Seonaigh MacPherson, Professor and Coordinator of the MBTL grad certificate program at UFV and Kulli Yee, workplace mindfulness trainer and administrator with Vancity and graduate student in the MBTL program. Seonaigh has Level 2 certification in MBSR with the Centre for Mindfulness Studies in Toronto and Kulli is completing her Level 1 MBSR certification under supervision with the Centre and the MBTL program.<\/p>\n
