Center for Mind Body Medicine, we offer small groups and workshops designed to heal trauma, manage stress and build resilience.

About the CMBM Model

The Center for Mind-Body Medicine creates communities of hope and healing. It is the world’s largest, most effective evidence-based program for healing population-wide psychological trauma and stress. Bringing together a variety of techniques drawn from the world’s healing traditions as well as modern medicine, the model teaches whole populations to heal themselves.

Our goal is to equip children and adults in the north state to:

Understand the role of stress and trauma and how they impact physical and emotional health.
Utilize evidence-based self-care techniques to improve health and wellbeing.
Normalize honest, open communication that respects all participants and welcomes the healthy expression of emotion.

Mind-Body Skills Groups

Our Mind-Body Skills Groups provide a remarkable opportunity to relieve stress, heal trauma, and build resilience.

Groups and workshops are available on site and online. Let us know you’re interested by clicking the link below and we will connect you with an opportunity. If you are interested in bringing a workshop or group to your workplace or organization, you can let us know that, too. We are passionate about bringing these skills into our communities.

Participant Testimonials

“I wish I had learned these skills thirty years ago.”

“There were moments of panic, moments of intense emotions and self-limiting fears, but leaving here, I feel lighter, more open, freer. Able to let go of some of that past, trauma, drama, and baggage.”

“My experience in the group has given me tools that have transformed the way I process stressful situations.”

“The group has changed my life. I see the world with different eyes and I know the future will be much better.”

“This program was perfect for me! Self-exploration can be a daunting task–doing it with others in a non-judgmental, supportive way helps me become more aware and compassionate.”
