8-Week (MBSR) Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Course - Live & In-Person

Increase Resiliency. Reduce Stress. Transform Your Life.

This 8-week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course teaches the principles and practice of mindfulness, leading to increased focus, self & situational awareness, and emotional regulation, while decreasing stress, improving well-being, and heightening effectiveness in all aspects of life.

Taught by Inseus founder, Ashley Nelson. Ashley has completed rigorous training in neuroscience, mindfulness, and emotional intelligence from UC San Diego’s Mindfulness Based Professional Training Institute in the School of Medicine and the Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute. In addition to being a Certified MBSR Teacher, she is also a former senior leader at a Fortune 500 company, an SIY Certified Teacher, executive coach, and hatha yoga instructor.

The MBSR curriculum was developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center over 30 years ago, and Harvard research shows that eight weeks of MBSR training rewires your neural networks, reduces cortisol levels, improves cognition, memory & executive function, and results in extensive physiological benefits, creating a healthier, more resilient, productive and peaceful you.

This course’s experiential sessions teach the principles of MBSR through mixed modalities, including several types of mindfulness meditation, awareness-building activities, group inquiry and discussion, readings, and mindful movement.

Over the course of our MBSR program, you will acquire a toolkit for integrating mindfulness into your daily life through both formal and informal practices. Learn about the neuroscience and scientific evidence behind mindfulness, stress reactivity and stress response cycles. The evidence-based benefits include:

  • Reduced stress

  • Improved ability to manage life stressors

  • Improved attention

  • Enhanced productivity

  • Improved sleep patterns

  • Better emotional regulation

  • Increased self-awareness

  • Enhanced communication & active listening skills

  • Improved relationships

An intensive, experiential exploration of mindfulness, this MBSR course is especially recommended for those in high-pressure careers, anyone facing a significant life-changing event, care-takers or those struggling with chronic illness, or anyone seeking a more purpose-driven life.

At the end of the course, you will receive a certificate of completion and will be qualified to proceed with MBSR Teacher Certification.
