Fee: $20 per session, or whatever you can afford

Back by popular demand! This introduction to mindfulness training is based on skills from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). DBT was developed by Marsha Linehan, a psychologist, trained spiritual director, and Zen master to help people who struggle to manage difficult emotions and have problems in their relationships. Mindfulness has numerous spiritual, psychological, and health benefits; and these skills are central to most religious practices.

DBT mindfulness skills are specifically designed to be nondenominational and compatible with a wide variety of traditions and beliefs. This class will be especially helpful for people who are struggling with their own spiritual practice, emotional dysregulation, or want to learn more about mindfulness for better health and well-being.

The training will take place on Thursdays at 10:30-12pm at the Spiritual Renewal Center. Space is limited to 8 participants. No one will be turned away for inability to pay. This class is not a substitute for psychotherapy but may compliment your current practice.

Steve Moore is the director of the Spiritual Renewal Center, a trained spiritual director and clinical psychologist. He was intensively trained in DBT and has conducted DBT groups in a variety of settings. If you are interested, please contact the Steve Moore at the Spiritual Renewal Center. We are not able to accommodate walk-ins. Suggested donation is $20 per session.
