GENERAL INFORMATION

Daily life requirements and years-long cumulated problems can lead to a state of exhaustion, stress that can no longer be overcome with a weekend’s rest, as well as mental disbalance and illness. To address these problems a valuable tool is the mindfulness practice. The basic method of MBSR of focusing attention on body sensations, emotions, fluctuations of thoughts, breathing and sounds helps the practitioner to understand the intimate mechanisms of the mind and to learn how to adjust its functioning for improved wellbeing. 

The benefits of mindfulness are already scientifically recognized, and in the last decade it has spread beyond the medical field, to education, social sciences, personal development, business etc. They are currently used in many top companies such as Google, Apple, Intell, AOL or in the United States Army, European Commission and British Parliament.

Would you like to learn mindfulness, to help you with these issues, but you do not have the time to engage in the standard 8-week MBSR course? We can offer customized mindfulness courses shaped to your needs. The experiential and interactive courses in customized format cover all techniques taught in the standard MBSR course, and allow you to gradually apply them in your life at your own pace. 

At request we can organize customized courses in the following formats:

  • Private 8-week MBSR course > For those of you who prefer to work individually, we also offer private sessions. If you’re looking for a one-on-one class, you’re welcome to book our private online course. This course is based on the 8-week MBSR program, but is adapted to one participant. 
  • 4-week intensive mindfulness course > If you do not feel comfortable in a large group, this particular training is set up for a very small group of 2-5 participants. In this format you can benefit from the group sharing experience.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Who can take this course

Any adult who wants to learn how to better deal with stress, improve their stress resilience abilities and find again the joy of life, regardless of his professional or personal background can attend this course.

This course is not recommended to people dealing with post traumatic stress disorder, drug dependency, acute diagnosed depression, people with suicide risk and other difficult psychiatric diagnosis. 

What is included in the course

  • Formal practice – mindfulness meditation techniques, mindful movements techniques – sitting, lying, standing or moving 
  • Informal practice using examples and situations from real life
  • Sharing experience in the group as well as personal exploration and guidance
  • Course handout to support the class teachings containing:
    • brief description of the mindfulness techniques learned in the class
    • specific teaching tools for learning various situations elements through a mindful perspective
    • information on stress physiology and our reactions to stressful situations
    • reading references and keys to understand various type of situations

What do you need for a successful experience?

  • The course does not request special preliminary knowledge and skills. It is based on the experience and personal observation of the participants both during the sessions, home practice and in daily life.
  • MBSR outcomes are based on mobilising internal resources. Commitment to a daily practice of 45-60 minutes is expected when registering the course. While this requirement may seem difficult to achieve for some, it often proves to be easier than it looks, as the practice itself creates gradually the necessary space in our mind and life for the practice.   
  • A quiet room for the daily practice, as much as possible
  • A yoga mat (or equivalent) for the mindful movements practice
