About Simei: Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) - Oct 4 - Nov 22 (Thu)
Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Program, developed by Dr Jon Kabat Zinn at the University of Massachusetts (UMass) Medical School in 1979, consists of eight classes and one all-day class. There are 31 hours of learning and practice hours.
MBSR is a well-defined and systematic patient-centered educational approach which uses relatively intensive training in mindfulness meditation as the core of a program to teach people how to take better care of themselves and live healthier and more adaptive lives. The outcomes are:
- Approach your life with more composure, energy, understanding and enthusiasm
- Develop the ability to cope more effectively with both short-term and long-term stressful situations
- Enhance your ability to manage and reduce pain levels in many instances
- Improve your focus, resilience and capacity to recover more quickly from challenging events
This MBSR course is taught by Eric Lim, a qualified MBSR Teacher and Mindfulness Psychologist at Brahm Centre. He spearheads the curriculum development and research efforts of the mindfulness programmes. He has taught over 3000 individuals through delivery of courses, talks and workshops including Duke-NUS Medical School, National University of Singapore, National Institute of Education, Hwa Chong Institution and more. Eric has also been awarded the merit award for being a young model caregiver at the 2017 Model Caregiver Awards organised by AWWA.
