Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is an eight-week program that has been scientifically shown to be an effective complement to a wide variety of treatments for these conditions.
​
In Imagine's MBSR classes you will learn to actively manage the effects of chronic stress on your life by learning mind and body awareness techniques.
​
Through mindfulness and meditation training we assist you to participate in your own self-care and contribute to your personal growth. Your concentration, creativity, and (self) compassion will bloom along the way.
