Mindfulness was brought to western society by Jon Kabat-Zinn in the form of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) therapy. A few years later Professor Mark Williams et al developed Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), derived from the therapies of MBSR and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). MBCT is now established as the clinically recognised form of mindfulness training and is used widely in healthcare as an intervention for recurrent depression. Be Mindful is the world's only online MBCT program; produced with the approval of the originators of MBCT, it is accessible by anyone, anywhere and widely used in healthcare and enterprise. MBCT, and therefore the Be Mindful program does not contain anything of a religious nature. You will not be asked to accept anything, except what you experience for yourself.

By the end of the online program, you'll be naturally practising mindfulness in your daily life, helping you to be present and not caught up in negative thoughts, to be more aware and respond more skilfully to events, and to reduce and maintain low levels of stress, depression and anxiety.
