MBCPM™ Mindfulness Maintenance is called “Mindfulness Matters” and is a “drop-in” class for alumni of the MBCPM courses and trainings.

The class is open to alumni of MBCPM™ programmes.  Anyone who has done a mindfulness programme elsewhere may also apply with a physician’s referral.

There are currently three ″Chapters” of “Mindfulness Matters” in Ontario, but please note COVID-19 will have cancelled classes where groups were meeting in a facility:

Chapter 1 is hosted by facilitators Annie Hebert RN and Barb Fraser MSW from Noelville and Haliburton respectively, and links with a number of sites via telemedicine including Aurora, Blind River, Bracebridge, Elliot Lake and Newmarket, but please check our table periodically for site updates.  Scripts of themes and guidelines are provided by NNC, to explore through formal practice and discussion.  Classes run on Thursdays from 3:30 to 4:30 pm EDT.

Chapter 2 is hosted by NNC, online, via Zoom interface into participants’ homes, following the NNC themes and guidelines, to be explored through formal practice and discussion each week.  Classes run on Mondays from 7:00 to 8:15 pm EDT by NNC team members Katherine Hall and Debbie Joel.  The first 9 classes are free and thereafter there is a charge of $55 per 9 drop-in classes, or $130 for the year.  There are four to five “sets” of classes per year.  Where there is financial hardship special arrangements can be made by contacting NNC at team@neuronovacentre.com.

Chapter 3 is an onsite self-management group in Kingston, volunteer-coordinated, hosted by another capable MBCPM™ alumni volunteer, Christine Sugrue, again with clear guidelines and theme scripts.
