Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), is a proven method of strategic intervention with both medical and psychiatric clients, based on principles that have been effectively used for thousands of years. Recent clinical research indicates MBSR improves outcomes in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical-behavioral therapy (DBT), and can be integrated into a variety of other treatment approaches.

As insurance companies, benefit providers and corporate medicine specialists seek proven techniques of intervention, those who learn and practice MBSR will have the edge. This course is designed to teach you the skills of medical meditation and to integrate methods of stress reduction into the lives of a variety of clients.

Even the most difficult to treat clients have benefited from MBSR methods. Borderline personality disordered individuals, clients with eating disorders and even self-mutilators and addicts have realized change by using MBSR.

Stress reduction methods can help with pre-surgical preparation and promoting wellness among medical patients. Counselors and therapists working with adult and adolescent behavioral and psychological problems will find these tools a valuable resource for making therapy more effective. MBSR is the leading therapeutic approach in an era of managed care seeking outcome based treatment with proven efficacy. Those who complete this course will posses the foundational and advanced skills required to effectively implement evidenced based therapies in today's competitive environment.

The methods of stress reduction taught in this course are well researched and accepted by the clinical and medical community. Many of these methods have historical origins in a variety of religious experiences and the materials for this course reflect the historical origins of meditation practice. Practitioners and clients of medical meditation techniques and MBSR in particular will learn the foundational exercises that come from these religious traditions and how to apply them in any context, religious or secular. Purchases of this course should be open minded and prepared to learn from new perspectives and ancient wisdom, to fully benefit from these course materials.
