This 8-week group class combines online and in-person retreat, and offers practical skills help overcome depression, anxiety, and recurrent low-mood or maladaptive coping states (such as burnout, media or substance addiction, chronic panic attacks and fatigue).
The course will meet weekly over the course of 8 weeks in 2-hour online sessions via zoom, with two in-person outdoor sessions on July 16 and August 13 in the Longmont, CO. area. These sessions will involve sitting, standing, lying down, and movement meditation practices as well as reflection and inquiry into our automatic patterns of thinking/reacting, habitual/maladaptive coping, anxiety triggers and traumatic stimuli, and our relationship to present-moment experience.
It is recommended to purchase a meditation cushion or bench, and a yoga mat if you do not already have one, however, they are not necessary for course participation.
MBCT has been tested and proven effective in clinical trials throughout the world. Additionally, there are benefits to meeting in a virtual space, primarily offering you the opportunity to practice responding skillfully to stress and low-mood states within the home environment and in daily life.
Handouts and audio recordings of guided meditations are provided on the website.
***Participants who are currently in a depressive episode should consult with their health care team and work to stabilize prior to engaging in this course.***
