Living with pain or a health condition is challenging. However, much of the suffering caused by ill-health can be overcome. This programme contains the best mindfulness and compassion techniques from 30 years of managing severe chronic pain, and its effectiveness has been demonstrated in a number of scientific trials. This simple 8-week course gives you the tools and skills to live well with your chronic pain or health condition.
The Mindfulness for Health course was developed by Vidyamala Burch, founder of Breathworks, drawing on her personal experience of using mindfulness and meditation to manage her own chronic pain and to enjoy a better quality of life. It was the first Mindfulness-based Pain & Illness Management Programme (MBPM) and is a highly effective combination of mindfulness and compassion practices, meditation, mindful movement, pacing and group work. Since then, the Mindfulness for Health course has reached over 100,000 people from all around the world and Vidyamala was recently awarded an OBE for Services to Wellbeing and Pain Management.
