MBCT-R starts soon - “R" is for Resilience
Resilience is the ability to respond to adversity, something we all need in these challenging times.
Check out this workshop offered by the Mindfulness Center of the Cambridge Health Alliance, a teaching hospital of the Harvard Medical School.
Starts Wednesday, April 21, 5:30 PM EDT - 8-Week Workshop
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is an evidence-based educational program shown to prevent depressive relapse and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. MBCT combines the practice of mindfulness with practical tools from cognitive therapy.
In MBCT-R, you will learn skills for responding to the anxiety and emotional challenges arising from our current situation. Through the practice of mindfulness you will learn to engage the body, mind and heart to relate differently to challenging thoughts and emotional distress, and to help you to care for yourself and cultivate resilience.
This live online program allows participants to engage with the teacher and with each other.
Participant Testimonials
“I wanted to express my deep, deep gratitude for this fantastic class. I have gotten so much out of the past 8 weeks, and I know I owe that to your thoughtful presence and compassionate leadership. Class gave me the scaffolding to do some really transformative work which I hope to continue for years to come.”
"The group has helped me to accept and let go."
"I would not miss this group. I loved it. It helped me feel less judgmental towards myself and others."
“The class has been helpful in reframing my thoughts and has given me ways to redirect my energy to much more
enjoyable things.”
“Thanks again for the guidance and compassion that you and Kiera offered during the workshop. it was an invaluable experience that has already helped in a variety of situations and I’m grateful to have acquired these tools. I have been most amazed by my ability to be in the moment, not an easy thing for me. .... I never imagined being able to slow myself down long enough to choose how to think and feel about a given situation instead of staying trapped in the “default settings” of mental and physical panic. Or that certain patterns of thought and feeling weren’t personal failings but simply the best way I knew how to manage. These realizations seem so basic and simple, but were anything but. Thank you for helping me get out of my own way.”
