Description
The MBSR course is an 8-week course that uses meditation and yoga to reduce stress and improve mental health, supported by robust clinical research.
The course is designed for people who wish to transform some area of their life, whether this is simply to have time to pause and relax, or to reduce anxiety, depression or other mental health challenges. Mindful Surrey offer the latest version of the well-established 8-week MBSR course, taught all over the world. The course includes eight weekly, two-hour sessions, a 5-hour retreat day, all course materials, pre-course telephone interview, optional online drop-in sessions and supporting calls/emails for the duration of the course.
Each class has a different focus, and includes meditations (seated in a chair or lying down), simple yoga-style movements, and discussion. Home practice is set each week, which includes practising the meditations and other short exercises. To get the most from the MBSR course, it is important to be able to devote 20-30 minutes to daily practice.
We run the MBSR course online as well as in-person, in Surrey and Sussex.
Mindfulness meditation, through techniques such as focused breathing and exploring sensations in the body, has been clinically shown to reduce anxiety by up to 30%, enhance emotional resilience and improve sleep, according to recent studies (eg, Smith et al., 2023).
