Words From MBSR Graduates<br />
“. . . complete change in my understanding of how I can participate in my<br />
own wellness. I have specific, tangible methods for coping with stress<br />
and challenges now, which I’ve never had before . . . . It was so very helpful<br />
to me that I would recommend it unconditionally.”<br />
“I learned how to be more compassionate with myself.<br />
To note a thought as just a thought, an emotion just an emotion &#8211;<br />
I do not need to act or react to them.”<br />
