A FREE Evening Session with  

Dr. Jeffrey Brantley   

Wednesday, May 16, 2012
6:30pm to 8:00pm

We invite you to join Dr. Jeffrey Brantley, Director of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) at Duke Integrative Medicine for an evening of relaxation and serenity.

Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a method of using meditation and yoga to cultivate awareness and reduce stress. It is based on the ancient practice of mindfulness, which is about waking up, being fully alive, and being present in the richness of each moment of our lives.

During this evening session, Dr. Brantley will discuss the powerful ways that mindfulness can address your physical and emotional health by reducing stress.  He will share the most current evidence and research, and he will teach you specific techniques that you can use starting right now to help you:

  • Enhance your ability to cope with day-to-day stress -- related to your family or your job.
  • Reduce common physical symptoms and improve the quality of your life.
  • Learn skills for dealing with anxiety, depression, and other psychological symptoms.
  • Experience greater joy and enthusiasm for life.
 

During the seminar, you will learn more about the approach to healthcare we take at Duke Integrative Medicine, and you will have the opportunity to explore our beautiful facility.

SPACE IS LIMITED, SO RSVP TODAY!
