"Between stimulus and response there is a space

In that space is our power to choose our response

In our response lies our growth and our freedom"

Viktor Frankl

MBSR stands for Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. It is an 8-week program developed by the American molecular biologist Jon Kabat-Zinn in 1979 at the University Hospital of Massachusetts. Since then, MBSR programs have become very popular and have been used in various settings (e.g. clinical, corporate). Study results show that regularly practicing mindfulness can lead to greater physical and mental well-being.

An MBSR-course aims at strengthening our inherent ability to being mindful. For this purpose, various mindfulness exercises are presented and practiced, such as

• Sitting meditation
• Walking meditation
• Mindful body awareness (Body Scan)
• Mindful body awareness in movement (mindful Hatha Yoga)
• Mindfulness in everyday life (e.g. eating, talking, listening)

"If you struggle with stress, anxiety or any form of depression, I can highly recommend you to Amina’s MBSR course. Her calm voice and relaxed stature immediately brings calmness and relaxation to you, and I felt immediately more grounded during the sessions. The course is very well structured to cater to beginners as well as regular practitioners of mindfulness. After the sessions, I felt that the concept of mindfulness and meditation integrated into my lifestyle, and I didn't get the feeling that the course was just theoretical. I learned not only body scans and breathing but also concepts like mindful yoga, walking and eating. I learned to make short meaningful pauses during the day and connected more with myself. By the time the sessions were over, I had become more aware of myself and my thoughts and environment. Whenever I fell off the meditation routine, Amina provided excellent course material to help me practice the concepts again and get back on track to being more mindful. Being an ex-pat and unable to speak Deutsch very well was a big blocker for me, and I'm happy that Amina prepared everything and conducted the course in English for me. I will recommend this course to anyone and everyone who wants to start or continue their journey into the beautiful world of mindfulness and awareness."
