The 8-week effective
Mindfulness Program
Are you longing for stress release and more joy in your life?
Our participants have reported in average 62% less stress, 55% better sleep and 79% improvement in overall life quality.
If you truly want a positive change in your life, our Mindfulness Program is a great first step.
About the Program
This 8-week program is based on the world-renowned Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) that has been started in the United States in 1979 by doctor Jon Kabat Zinn with great scientifically proven results.
Our participants join the program:
- to decrease their stress level
- to improve sleep quality
- to improve their concentration and focus
- for personal development
- to improve overall life quality
We are meeting in a group of 10-16 people, once per week for a 2-2.5 hours workshop (in total around 20 hours + home practice), where we learn in an interactive and fun way practicing being more mindful.
Since it takes time to truly embrace new healthy habits, that is why the course lasts 8 weeks, during which you will be gradually incorporating practical tools that will help you improve an overall quality of your life long-term.
