                                              This eight week, 9 session                    MBSR course is based on systematic and intensive training in                    mindfulness, meditation, and mindful hatha yoga.                     Developed in the Stress Reduction Clinic, at the University of                    Massachusetts Medical School, in 1979, this program is                    designed to teach program participants how to integrate and                    apply mindfulness in their everyday lives and to the range of                    challenges arising from life stresses.   Based on the foundations of                    Mind Body and Integrated Medicine,  MBSR  focuses on                    development of mindfulness.  During this class you will                    have the opportunity to participate in "formal" and "informal"                    mindfulness practices.  These practices may promote                    healthy ways to cope with stress and life challenges.                     MBSR may help you access strengths you already have and                    enhance your well being through the development and refinement                    of your own resilience.                                         Where:   Mass                    General/North Shore Center for Outpatient Care                    102 Endicott Street, Danvers
