MBCT Class:

Eight weekly, two-hour classes will help the participant:

• become familiar with the workings of one’s own mind
• notice the times when we are at risk of getting caught in old habits of mind that re-activate downward mood spirals
• explore ways of releasing ourselves from those old habits and, if one chooses, to enter a different way of being
• put one in touch with a different way of knowing the self and the world
• notice small beauties and pleasures in the world around us instead of living in our head
• be kind to ourselves instead of wishing things were different all the time, or driving ourselves to meet impossible goals
• find a way not to battle with ourselves all the time
• accept ourselves as we are, rather than judging ourselves all the time

The cost for the course is $500.  The course includes 16 hours of in class instruction provided by seasoned clinicians, who have been trained by one of the founders of MBCT, Zindel Segal, a course manual, 7 CDs with a wide variety of guided meditations, and on-going coaching during and after course.  At this time, we are not working with any insurance companies for reimbursement.  However, we will try to make helpful accommodations for anyone who is truly interested in participating and cannot pay the full tuition.
