Mindfulness & Meditation
Mindfulness and meditation were originally a part of spiritual philosophies and complementary practices imparted to liberate people of the delusions, attachments, and aversions that create suffering. Folx in modern times are often drawn to secular mindfulness and meditation to live healthier more meaningful lives.
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an 8-week, evidence-based program that combines mindfulness activities, dialogue and inquiry, and formal meditation to help individuals manage stress, pain, and illness. Meta-analyses have found that MBSR significantly reduces symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress across clinical and community populations. It’s also been shown to enhance psychological wellbeing, emotional regulation, and quality of life, with moderate effect sizes sustained over time. Dr. Jo’s training in MBSR was provided by The Mindfulness Center at Brown University.
