What is Mind-Body Medicine?

Mind-Body Medicine (MBM) is…

  • NOT therapy or counseling or religion or medicine as we know it. It’s life skills that help you become fully aware of yourself, your needs, your wants — so you can make your life, your way!
  • A powerful way in which you can hear and heal yourself.
  • Tried and true techniques — some ancient, some modern, all backed by research — are utilized to help you access your inner knowing, calm yourself, and see how your beliefs, emotions, self-talk, habits, and patterns of daily living impact your life.
  • Developing mindfulness around your habits, beliefs, and how you respond to life is the beginning of a transformation.

Here’s what develops in MB groups:

  • Stronger sense of meaning and purpose in life
  • Feel more connected to themselves, their families and communities
  • Better sleep
  • A decrease in depression and anxiety with a heightened sense of well being and engagement in life
  • Better coping skills by learning a dependable range of useful tools for managing pain, chronic stress, anxiety and depression
  • Decreased perception of stress, better able to manage whatever is going on
  • Fewer physical symptoms of illness, lower blood pressure, lower blood sugar
  • Enhanced immune system functioning to help the body mobilize itself against illness
  • Greater self awareness and positive perceptions about their own lives, making it easier to handle stress and illness
  • “It’s not just you”
  • Community of peers
  • Greater connection to self & others
