Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) are long-standing programmes, both with significant research showing the benefits of learning to cultivate this way of being in the world. More recently developed courses, like Mindfulness & Compassion and Awakening Joy, build on that research and emphasise different aspects of mindfulness training.
The research shows that Mindfulness-Based Courses help us to develop our awareness of our internal experience, moment to moment; to enhance our relationships with others and with the environment; to take better care of our mental and physical health, including finding ways to work with low mood, anxiety and depression.
