Day 2 Session 5A: Using Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction for Teens & Young Adults

Session Summary


Join in on the latest in understanding how best to connect and serve today's stressed teen through the technique of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). The goal of MBSR is to help people develop the ability to focus their attention and awareness in the present moment, rather than dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. This can lead to a reduction in stress and an improvement in overall well-being. MBSR is typically taught in an eight-week group format but can also be done in an individual format.

In this learning session, you will learn the several potential benefits of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) for teens. Some of the most well-established benefits include:

  • Stress reduction:

  • Improved emotional regulation

  • Improved attention and concentration

  • Improved coping skills

  • Improved self-esteem.
