Mindfulness Mondays - Pain Management
In today's session, we will discuss various methods of managing our pain with mindfulness practices. The foundation of these practices is grounded in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), which was originally created by Jon Kabatt-Zinn, PhD in 1979 to alleviate suffering in patients with chronic pain at the Stress Reduction Clinic Center at UMass Medical Center.
Whether this is your first mindfulness Monday or you are a returning participant, these sessions are created with the intention of including everyone. There will be time for questions following the practice.
