What people are saying
The whole experience on this MBCT-L course was amazing. I would say it was a life changing experience. I learned a lot from it and will take them into my daily practice and my life.
Elena
There’s no quick fix to establish lifelong habits, but this 8-week program certainly builds a very strong foundation to create a better everyday. Chris is a wonderful teacher and engages each student into the course with curiosity, patience, and compassion. Each lesson was filled with many different practices, a good mix of both longer meditations as well as practical tools for everyday.

The course can help you increase awareness of taking care yourself and getting connected with your body and feelings. You can also take away kinds of useful skills to help you clean mess of thoughts, transform negative feelings to peace through allowing and raise up awareness to calm down when facing challenges.
