The MBSR course is an 8-week group program, with weekly group sessions and exercises to practice at home. Everyone is welcome: teenagers, adolescents and the elderly. For young people and children, we provide separate courses. You can read more about that below.

The standard price for the sessions is €340. However, you may have the option to get a partial reimbursement from your health insurance company. Check this yourself. Staff members of the VUB (and their family members) can get a compensation for the sessions in the BRUCC through Van Breda. For more info click here. For some courses a more beneficial price is offered, contact our center for more information.  

You can choose between online and live mindfulness courses. The latter always take place in a beautiful place in nature.
