As described in OPRAH Magazine (10/02), Dr. Myra Weiss' Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Course uses techniques popularized by Jon Kabat-Zinn, UMass Medical School (see www.mbsr-nyc.com) Mindfulness-based stress reduction provides deep and broad impacts on your life. To be mindful is to develop skills in attention and moment-to-moment awareness of internal and external events. A higher level of awareness gives you more choice to respond and influence circumstances, as opposed to being carried away by reacting to currents of stress. Anyone can learn to transform stressful situations by going through them in order to get past them. This is accomplished by using awareness of your breath and body to achieve skills of relaxed observing and clarity.
Practicing with the following CD, which includes information from Dr. Weiss's two audio cassettes, is the most essential part of the Course:
The Guided Body Scan helps you enter a deep state of relaxation, as you learn the art of escorting attention to where you want it to be. The Guided Sitting Meditation facilitates moment-to-moment awareness of thoughts, emotions, physical sensations which gives a greater ability to influence life circumstances. The Introduction to Walking Meditation reminds you that mindfulness can be accomplished in any posture and at any moment during the day or night, without people noticing what you're doing for yourself (e.g., while working, conversing, eating, waiting for a bus, on the telephone......)!
You can purchase the Guided Body Scan and the Guided Sitting Meditation as audio cassettes, whereas the Compact Disc includes both the Body Scan, the Sitting Meditation, plus an Introduction to Walking Meditation. Within a few months of consistent use, higher levels of mindfulness occur with rare, or no, use of the CD or audio cassettes.
Dr. Myra Weiss is eminently qualified to guide people in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction. She is a diplomate in Clinical Social Work and has practiced meditation for 25+ years. She has completed the Professional Training for Healthcare Professionals and the Teaching Development Instensive, taught by Jon Kabat-Zinn, Saki Santorelli and senior faculty from UMass Center for Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. Dr. Weiss has also reached the highest rank in teaching and supervising in the field of Family Therapy (Approved Supervisor, American Association for Marriage and Family Therapists - AAMFT).
