Welcome
Welcome MBSR Practitioners
This website has been developed to share relevant information online, such as poetry, links, utubes and stress physiology. It would be wonderful if you could look at the appropriate page that corresponds with each week from class. Feel free to be in touch with me during the 8 weeks together. I'm available to support you via email, text message or telephone, particularly if you are finding any of the home practices too challenging. It's always a good idea to let me know, so we can discuss the practice together. The course provides us with an 8 week exploration to open to our own experience and really get to know our mind states, body sensations and emotions. I'm really looking forward to sharing this time together and seeing how the practice becomes the teacher.
Best wishes
