MBSR Workshop
Peter is a Recognized Teacher and Mentor of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR); he is also a certified Teacher-in-Training of Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC). Less formally, Mindfulness roots, deeply influences, and steadies most aspects of his life; that is, in Relationship; in his way of conceiving Psychotherapy; in his way of Martial Moving; and in his profound appreciation for Nature and all that it is to be alive. Lastly, in terms of teaching style, expect from Peter: Enthusiasm; Playfulness, and Deep Respect; Challenge; Experience; and Compassion.

Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction:
Join us for an 8 week commitment, a renewed lifelong intention or a compassionately curious way to learn, explore and integrate the concepts and practice of Mindful Movement and Meditations. Modeled on the program developed by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn at the Stress Reduction Clinic in the University of Massachusetts Medical Centre, learn to focus awareness on sensations, thoughts and emotions while letting go of judgments, attachments, the past or future worries. Embrace the opportunity to explore internal experiences of mind, body and psychological resources while embarking on a path of improved self care and living more fully in the present.
