This is a shortened version of the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program (MBSR) for busy people. MBSR is an evidence-based group program for adults to learn and practice mindfulness-based skills to cope with stress effectively for a wide range of physical and mental health benefits.  

Attendance to all 4 sessions, some readings from the textbook (Wherever You Go There You Are: Mindfulness Meditation In Everyday Life by Jon Kabat-Zinn, about 1 hour weekly), and practice of mindfulness-based skills at home (at least 10 minutes daily) are strongly encouraged to receive the full benefits of this program, such as reduced stress reactions, lowered blood pressure and heart rate, enhanced attention and concentration, management of anxiety, prevention of recurrent depression, and improvement of eating habits.

*No need to purchase the textbook unless you want to keep your personal copy (about $10 in online bookstores). Reading assignment will be accessible via the WKU Blackboard to registered participants prior to each session.
