Take time for you. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is the name given to the eight-week program, which was developed from the ancient art of mindfulness meditation. It has been scientifically and clinically tested over the past thirty years by Dr Jon Kabat-Zinn and others at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center. Research and development continues for this and other mindfulness related programs in an increasing number of universities around the world, including Bangor and Oxford.

Extensive research has shown that MBSR is beneficial to patients with medical conditions (including chronic illness and pain, high blood pressure, cancer, vascular and respiratory disorders and many others), psychological distress (including anxiety, panic, depression, fatigue, and sleep disturbances) as well as in preventative medicine and wellness programs.  MBSR has become part of a newly recognised field of integrative medicine within behavioural medicine and general health care.

Life Imagined offers the 8 weeks of individual MBSR sessions, which are normally 60 euro per session for the reduced rate of 450 euro (payable in a managed way to suit you, weekly, 2 halves or in full) when you commit to the 8 program. Individuals who require further financial assistance please discuss this with us.
