Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an eight-week, group-based introduction to secular mindfulness practices. Designed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, the course is intended to help participants develop a personal mindfulness practice as a means of cultivating greater self-compassion and capacity for working with the stressful situations and difficult emotions we encounter living in our modern world.
