MIND BODY SKILLS GROUPS
Learn simple yet powerful techniques to soothe your nervous system and to take back control.
Building community, compassion, resilience, and empowerment.
A Mind Body Skills Group is a small, supportive 8 week groups set up to offer
how to use a variety of mind-body based techniques for self-care and stress
management, enhance your resilience, self-awareness, and encourage a sense of calm and wellbeing.
​
Mind-Body Skills Groups are educational, supportive groups built upon developing self-care skills.
Mind-Body Skills Groups have been developed over the last 30 years according to a model created by James S. Gordon, MD, and the Faculty and Staff of The Center for Mind-Body Medicine. Highly experiential and integrative techniques–such as meditation, guided imagery, autogenic training, breath work, movement, self expression and other approaches–are taught in a supportive environment.
An online Mind-Body Skills Group is grounded in self-reflection. Sharing and connecting with others creates a wonderful learning and growth environment that supports individual and collective well-being. Mind-Body Skills Groups support being witness to your own as well as other’s emotions and experiences.
Groups emphasize a sense of community. They are small, with 8-10 people and meet on a set day and time for 8 sessions (usually weekly), with each group lasting 2-hours. This format provides an opportunity to begin to integrate the mind-body skills into your life, in a real and practical way, with the support of the group to help you work through any difficulties along the way

This is not an open or drop-in group. This is not a therapy group!
Instead this is a highly-supportive educational group with a facilitator who is an equal participant.
