Mindfulness training

In collaboration with Radboudumc Center of Expertise for Mindfulness, PV Radboud offers the training Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR).

    General

    Content course  

    Mindfulness means: "to be present with attention in the here and now, without having a judgment about it." Mindfulness teaches you to adopt a more accepting attitude towards your thoughts, feelings and emotions. You learn to reflect more consciously on your experience of the here and now and not condemn it. There may then be room for making other choices. This allows you to deal with stress more effectively. 

    What will you learn? 

    • Pause, be present in the here and now;
    • Insight in (automatic) thinking and behaviour patterns;
    • A friendly attitude towards yourself and others.
