Mindfulness-Based Cancer Recovery (MBCR)
Mindfulness-Based Cancer Recovery (MBCR) is a structured group program, which teaches individuals the principles of mindfulness and how to apply them to deal more effectively with stress, illness, and the demands of daily life. The program consists of body awareness exercises, meditation, gentle yoga, in conjunction with daily home practice, both formal and informal.
Mindfulness is a way of being more deeply present to your body, your thoughts and your emotions. Practicing mindfulness allows us to “get off autopilot” AND reclaim how we respond to the unavoidable stressors in our lives
*This course is for cancer patients and their caretakers.
