Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR)

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is an 8-week educational group for professionals in the entertainment community. This evidence-based program was developed for people in chronic physical pain, and helps people suffering from chronic stress (i.e., isolation, living in uncertainty). MBSR uses meditation, mindful movement and inquiry as a way for people to develop skills enabling them to relate differently to stresses in their lives.

This 8-week educational group uses uses both class time and up to 50-minutes a day of home practice to unpack how meditation and mindful movement can aid in meeting any given moment with less stress. Email pmellen@entertainmentcommunity.org to receive updates on the next cohort.
