SUMMARY:Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction with Thomas Struebel
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Struebel is a certified MBSR teacher (training at the Institute for Mindfulness with Dr. Linda Lehrhaupt)\nExtensive leadership experience in the public sector and NGOs (including the establishment and management of a center for traumatized asylum seekers)\nCourse instructor in the context of mindfulness and resilience in social-therapeutic institutions and administrations\nMeditation instructor\, meditation since 1979 (Vipassana with S.N. Goenka\, Mother Sayama\, John Coleman; Zen with Ama Samy) \nMindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) was developed in 1979 by Professor Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts Medical School (USA) and is offered with great success in many clinics\, social and educational institutions\, and companies within the USA and increasingly in Europe as well. At the heart of the MBSR program is the cultivation of mindfulness\, i.e.\, the ability to be and remain in contact with the present moment without getting lost in thoughts\, judgments\, worries\, or anxieties. Through the regular practice of mindfulness\, MBSR promotes well-being and a more conscious approach to stress in everyday life. Furthermore\, mindfulness contributes to a higher quality of life and personal development. \nMBSR is generally taught as an 8-week course. Other course formats (e.g.\, weekend courses\, individual coaching) are also possible. The focus is on teaching and practicing various forms of mindfulness exercises. In addition\, there are presentations and group discussions on specific topics. An important element is the participants’ own practice at home between course sessions. \nCore elements of the course include: \nMindful body awareness\nMindful bodywork\nSitting and walking meditation\nMindfulness exercises for everyday life\nMBSR addresses issues of daily life and is open to people of all ages\, regardless of profession or worldview.
