Article Body:

​Over the last two decades, there has been an expansion and proliferation of mindfulness meditation programmes employed within education, business and healthcare and community settings.  The aim of these programmes is to decrease stress and improve attention and well-being.  A Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) course has been provided for NHSG staff for several years, and is now being offered to council and university partners. It is an experiential course which will teach participants skills to enhance present moment awareness and in turn, effectiveness, communication and satisfaction both in and outside of the workplace.  

The next course is due to run for eight weeks on Wednesday evenings from April – June.  To secure a place, please complete the Staff MBSR Booking Form.docxattached and return along with payment. For more information, email margaret.mclean@nhs.net
