MBSR-TR is back this July — and it’s here to support those who support us.⁠ ⁠ Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for Trauma Recovery (MBSR-tr) is an evidence-based 8-week course designed specifically for frontline workers and their family members.⁠ ⁠ Whether you’re living with PTSD, navigating stress and burnout, or struggling with anxiety, this program offers practical tools that help regulate the nervous system, build resilience, and reconnect to a sense of calm.⁠ ⁠ Held online with a 3-day retreat in the Northern Territory in August, this is a space for healing — made just for you.⁠ Thanks to generous government funding this course is also heavily subsidised!

Meet, Kate Duncan who is one of our MBSR-tr facilitators. ✨️⁠ ⁠ Kate is an Insight Dharma Teacher, a Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness and Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction teacher, and an E-RYT 500 Yoga Instructor. She facilitates silent meditation retreats and women's retreats and leads mindfulness-based trauma recovery programs for frontline workers. She has been a meditation practitioner for 15 years and has sat (and facilitated) over 40 retreats in the Western Insight tradition of up to 30 days in length.⁠ ⁠ Kate is a former Firefighter Paramedic and Intensive Care Paramedic, so she deeply understands the stress, anxiety, burn out and post-traumatic stress that can accompany a frontline worker's life. She is most interested in exploring how frontline workers can return to a place of safety, ease and well-being in the world, regardless of what they have experienced. Kate has been deeply influenced by the role of mindfulness of the body, yoga and breath in her own recovery journey. She is deeply passionate about sharing these body-based practices.⁠ ⁠ Lisa Brown and Kate adapted and created Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction for Trauma Recovery (MBSR-tr), which, over four years, has consistently shown significant reductions in symptoms of PTSD, Depression, and Anxiety as well as increases in the sense of well-being. Our next course begins July 31st with the retreat held in NT in August. Book your spot by following the link below 🙏🏻 https://frontlineyoga.com.au/courses-and-workshops/ (fb)
