Basic Principles of Mindfulness

This 5-week training combines simple mindfulness meditation techniques and scientific psychological insights into dealing with stress, negative emotions, worrying and health complaints. Mindfulness means being present and attentive to what is going on in the present moment, in a non-judgmental, non-reactive way. In various attention and movement exercises (including light yoga) and self-observation, you learn to remain internally balanced, to be gentler and more caring towards yourself and to be generally more conscious in life. Scientific studies of this mindfulness-based intervention confirm a beneficial effect on quality of life and well-being for complaints such as stress, anxiety, worrying, gloomy thoughts, sleep problems, chronic fatigue and pain.

The training is held by two clinical psychologists. Marisa Hoslet is a clinical psychologist and certified Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Trainer at the Center for Mindfulness, USA. She is the founder of the Center for Mindful Living and the center's multidisciplinary practice. The training is accompanied by a first-line psychologist within BRUCC.
