Mindfulness for Managing Pain

4-Week Online Program
$200

This course introduces you to mindfulness practices that support a different way of relating to acute and chronic pain. Physical pain is not only felt in the body. Thoughts, feelings and reactions can make pain feel worse. Mindfulness can help bring awareness to these reactions, allowing the opportunity to pause, respond with care and reduce anxiety and stress that may intensify the pain. This course helps you develop tools to:

• Respond more skillfully to acute and chronic pain
• Prioritize self-care practices for better pain management
• Reduce the stress related to your experience of pain  

Drawing on practices from the MBSR program, this course can complement other pain management approaches and help you engage more fully in daily life. Our instructors offer guidance in a setting that encourages learning and sharing.
