This 8 week Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy Course for Stress & Low Mood was developed by Professors Mark Williams, Zindel Segal and John Teasdale.  They adapted the original Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction course developed by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts Medical Centre in 1979.   Both of these courses have a strong evidence base for assisting participants in managing stress, low mood, depression, anxiety.
