Working in healthcare can be stressful even in the best of times. Mindfulness is needed now more than ever, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a proven method of improving resilience and wellbeing.

Developed by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction is the core program of the Mindfulness Center. MBSR classes include instruction in mindfulness meditation, mindful movement, and other mindfulness practices. This mindfulness program includes these elements and has been adapted specifically for healthcare professionals.

There is no cost for any UVA Health Employee (including the School of Medicine, School of Nursing, Medical Center, Health System Library, and University Physicians Group).

Register via the Event Link above.

Note that an addition to the Wednesday in person classes, there will be a Silent Retreat on Saturday, October 11, 2025, from 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
