Mindfulness is the ability to increase one's capacity to be present. As we become more present, we have a deeper awareness of what is possible. MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) is an evidence based form of mindfulness that focuses on "mind-body approaches to counteract stress, establish greater balance of body and mind, and stimulate well-being and healing".²
What is MBSR?
Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction
MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) is an 8 week experiential and evidence based course created by Jon Kabat-Zinn to help participants feel less pain, less stress, more at ease and present in their lives. During these 8 weeks online, we dive into different topics.³
Week 1: What is mindfulness?
Week 2: Our perceptions and responses
Week 3: The pleasure and power of being present.
Week 4: Stress
Week 5: Making space for choices and responses
Week 6: Difficult situations and communication
Week 7: Day to day life
Week 8: Endings and new beginnings

Some of the benefits of mindfulness...
A lot of research has been done on the effects of Mindfulness. One study over 8 weeks showed that leaders who practiced formally every day for 10 minutes or more, displayed higher scores on agility, empathy, perspective taking and resilience.⁴ Another study showed that participants in the Trier Stress Test, who had some experience meditating, had a faster recovery of their blood pressure. Furthermore, participants who were experienced meditators had lower stress levels, less stress hormones (cortisol) and even quicker recovery time.¹

Greater self awareness
With greater self awareness, one knows that what's at the surface is just a symptom of what's below the surface. This brings forth an increased ability to cope and react more effectively in stressful situations, inner calm and more self confidence.

Presence of mind
More presence and being in the here and now, greater energy and enthusiasm for life and a greater sense of overall well being. You also have increased resilience as one feels calmer, more focused, as you have learned new skills and habits to deal with the daily challenges of life.

Others...
Some other benefits are improved sleep quality, deeper awareness of what's possible, heightened creativity and innovativeness. Lastly, you're healthier as less stress provides less stress on your heart, immune system and less cortisol in the body.
