In 1979, Jon Kabat-Zinn founded the Stress Reduction Clinic at the University of Massachusetts to integrate meditation into the medical mainstream. His approach became known as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) - a powerful, effective way to reduce physical and mental suffering while building our capacity for greater health, balance, ease, and peace of mind. The MBSR Home Study Course is a comprehensive immersion in the same well-respected method taught at the UMass Center for Mindfulness.
