Learn to overcome Negative Thoughts with the MBSR Online Course

Applying the techniques taught in the MBSR online course will help those suffering from stress to develop a set of tools and strategies to overcome negative thoughts. Consistent application of MBSR techniques will help you to transform your state of mind to one of constant positivities and take control of your life.

MBSR is the abbreviation for Mindfulness-Based Stress Techniques. The MBSR online training provided in this course will teach you how to incorporate these techniques in your day to day life while also giving you an insight into the theory behind MBSR.

Almost everyone suffers from varying degrees of stress and/or anxiety. Stress can be brought on by significant life events and subside as those events are overcome. In other instances, coping with stress is an everyday occurrence that can on occasions; prove to be crippling and almost impossible to overcome.  Regardless of how regularly you are impacted by stress, it is important to understand that if not dealt with stress can develop into a physical condition.

The MBSR online certification course provides students with a thorough insight into Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). The course covers:

• The origins of MBSR

• Practicing mindfulness

• The effectiveness of deep breathing

• Meditation

• The effects of meditation and deep breathing on the mind and body.

Furthermore, the MBSR training online course examines the differences between mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and meditation.  It also explores the benefits to your mind and body of practising both.

Just a Taste of What is on Offer

While negative chemical reactions within the brain are caused by stress and anxiety, the course explains that practising mindfulness and meditation can have the reverse effect.  Students will discover what these changes are, and will learn how to develop meditation and mindfulness habits to improve their state of mind.

The negative impacts of chronic stress can have destructive effects on the body as well as the mind. The MBSR online course investigates these negative impacts while contrasting these to the positive impacts that mindful practice can have. Students will learn how to employ positive practical techniques immediately when they begin to feel the first signs of stress.

To assist with de-stressing more effectively, students are given access to practical yoga techniques that can be combined with mediation techniques. A module dedicated to improved communication will help students to work on eliminating a major stressor in their life – an inability to effectively communicate certain things. This module will assist you in becoming a better communicator and to be able to resolve potential conflicts before they become serious stress causing factors in your life.

At the heart of this MBSR online course is the concept of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT). Accordingly the course incorporates an 8-week programme of MBCT. This focus will help to give students a practical as well as a theoretical understanding of what MBCT entails.

Being able to practice MBSR and turn your life around gives you a unique perspective of mindfulness and stress. This perspective may lead you to consider using your knowledge to help others. With this in mind the course offers students guidance on how to set up their own MBSR practice.

Who would benefit from the MBSR online training course?

This course is aimed at people who are suffering stress, depression and/or anxiety looking for ways to help themselves overcome these ailments in an effective holistic way.

People who are trying to help someone cope with these conditions may find studying this program helpful as a way of supporting them. The course would also prove beneficial for people working in carer type professions.
