What is Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR?)

MBSR is the most studied evidence-based mindfulness program in the world. MBSR is taught by specially trained teachers to maximize benefits such as improving wellbeing, increasing resilience, reducing stress and anxiety, lowering blood pressure, managing chronic pain, and more.
