The Mindfulness Care Center offers a unique approach that allows an individual to begin feeling whole & safe and more embodied. We see the need for healing unresolved wounding and grief that is based on new models of brain/body integrative regulation. The mind, heart and spirit is one life force not the separate pieces we may often feel and operate from in our life. Change can happen
Mission
The Mindfulness Care Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to offering a unique approach in personal empowerment for individuals to begin feeling whole and safe through healing stressful anxieties that arise daily or from past and/or present day traumatic events. We are developing a community outreach care center that teaches the skills of brain/body reflective awareness in-order to regulate impulsive negative thoughts and discharge neuromuscular energies of fight, flight and freeze syndromes. Our approach is based on combining a variety of accepted modes and new models of healing stress, anxiety and PTSD within the medical, therapeutic and spiritual community.
Vision
To establish and continually develop ongoing workshops, programs and counseling that reweave the mind/body connection towards health and emotional stability. This will be accomplished by way of reflective teachings, various types of mindfulness stress reduction workshops, weekly meditation classes, individual Somatic Experiencing ® therapeutic counseling sessions, spiritual direction and grief workshops along with charitable outreach and scholarship opportunities. Our Advisory Committee will look to support and help serve the expansion of our community service programs.
The Mindfulness Care Center programs, classes and workshops are based on brain/body integrative models. We saw the need for healing unresolved wounding and grief that is based on models of awareness that offer neurological release and discharge of long held highly activated energies and regulation of the autonomic nervous system. Combined with mindful-insight that integrates the thinking mind with the physiological felt sense body, we can begin observing and learning that we have choices and options around our perceptions of the world and ourselves. We do not need to be stuck in repetitive obsolete actions of uncomfortable and suffering behavior patterns.
Our approach is a modern and ageless approach that goes back over 2500 years to the inception of mindful-insight meditation techniques. Adding in present day mind/body classes, reflective workshops and educational components of science; we are learning that neuroscientists are now observing changing patterns of the brain and its plasticity through the use of MRI brain scans.
We have and continue to develop mindfulness stress reduction programs, offering weekly meditation classes, individual Somatic Experiencing ® therapeutic counseling sessions, along with spiritual & grief workshops.
We see this work as a deeper integration towards health and healing of the whole person; versus the trying to fix emotional/psychological sufferings through analytical repetitive talking and numbing. We believe that undue emotionally embodied anxieties can be changed utilizing a brain/body interactive approach that allows the mind and body continuum to become whole, not separate entities of the self.
