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