What does MBSR have to do with mindfulness?

The abbreviation MBSR stands for "Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction", which can be translated as follows: Stress management through mindfulness.

MBSR is an 8-week course developed by Prof. Jon Kabat-Zinn in 1979, the effects of which on mental and physical well-being have been scientifically proven.

The focus of the MBSR week course is on promoting mindfulness. This means being aware of the present moment without getting lost in thoughts, judgments, worries and fears. With regular mindfulness exercises, you can practice consciously dealing with everyday stress, which contributes to a better quality of life. Such mindfulness exercises are also an important part of the MBSR week course.
