MBRC helps people with behavioral or substance misuse to find relief from the stresses and triggers that have them “act out” – as a coping mechanism – and mindfulness is used to reduce relapse. Ongoing mindfulness training programs incorporate both formal and informal practice into everyday activities to generate a higher level of consciousness (focus, awareness, sense of being) to bring awareness, intention, and kindness into the present moment. Issues with stress, fight, flight, and freeze can hijack the brains autoimmune system. With MBRC programs, individuals gain recognition and choice, to enhance happiness, or just cope more effectively with stress and the daily obstacles that we all face every day.
