Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a structured group programme that teaches mindfulness meditation to alleviate the suffering associated with stress. The programme, non-religious and non-esoteric, is based upon a step-by-step personal development framework that develops enhanced awareness of our moment-to-moment experience in everyday life.

Whilst research is on-going it has shown health-related benefits derived from the course include: enhanced emotional control and coping regarding the effects of chronic illness and stress, improving self efficacy and control, and developing a more differentiated picture of wellness in which stress and ailments play natural roles but still allow enjoyment of life as full and rich.
