Add to my calendar 2022-10-25 18:30:00 2022-12-13 21:00:00 8 Week mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) program for health care providers Mindfulness is a way of paying wise attention to whatever is happening in our minds, bodies and relationships with compassionate curiosity. In contrast, especially during multiple interconnected crises, we often become “mindless”— living in past conditioned biases or future anxieties, compelled by reactivity and unaware of the interdependency of our systems. Through practicing mindfulness, we may restore a sense of vitality and agency to act in our collective best interest. We mobilize foundational capacities for inhabiting complexity, together. This evidence-based course schedule consists of 8 weekly 2.5 hour classes and one day-long class on a Saturday. The weekly class will begin Tues, Oct 25th from 6:30 to 9:00 pm and run every Tuesday evening for 8 weeks. The all-day class is on Saturday, Dec 3rd, from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm. Speaker: Rahul Gupta MD, Certified MBSR Teacher Learning objectives: Recognize and respond differently to implicit bias. Better tolerate uncertainty, change and complexity. Perceive self & others with more clarity & compassion. Improve skillful decision making and collaborating. Mitigate symptoms of exhaustion & trauma. Agenda  Session 1: Introduction to mindfulness definition and practice. Session 2: Perception and creative responding – exploring how we see things. Session 3: Introduction to mindfulness of movement practices. Session 4: Understanding the physiology of stress & resilience. Session 5: Exploring open awareness for meeting everyday challenges. Session 6: Bringing mindfulness to stressful communications. The All-Day Retreat: Deepening our effectiveness in the use of MBSR skills. Session 7: Integrating mindfulness practice more fully into daily life. Session 8: Sustaining acquired skills beyond program completion.
