Deeper Mindfulness is a new eight-week course designed for those who have already completed a mindfulness-based program, such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) or Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and who want to explore mindfulness more deeply. This course was developed by Professor Mark Williams and colleagues at Oxford Mindfulness in the UK.
A central theme of the course is feeling tone ('vedana' in Pali language) — the moment-by-moment sense of whether an experience feels pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral. This ongoing “read-out” shapes how the body allocates its resources as it gears up for real or imagined action. While this process can help us respond effectively, it can also quietly drive stress and exhaustion when left unnoticed.
Over the eight weeks, you will learn how to recognize the early tipping points of distress and exhaustion before they gather momentum and find practical ways to respond with greater clarity and care. In doing so, you will begin to restore balance, replenish your energy, and rediscover a sense of choice and freedom— even in the midst of difficulty.
We at the UW Health Mindfulness Program are very excited to be offering this course as an added resource for some of the thousands of participants in MBSR courses over the past 33 years. We are one of a small number of centers in the US currently offering this course.
