I work for the Omega Institute and we are producing a workshop in California at the moment.  (Our campus is in New York, so they flew me out here!  Whoo Hoo!)

This workshop is by Jon Kabat-Zinn and Saki Santorelli and is called the “Mindfulness based stress reduction clinic for professionals”.

These two men are pretty amazing.  They set up clinical trials at the University of Mass. Medical center and over almost three decades they've amassed enough clinical proof to the positive physical aspects of stress reduction that they are a huge reason for the change in thinking to the medical community.  so…. they take doctors, nurses, social workers, psychologists and they put them through the same program they do their patients and also add a tremendous amount of clinical information to the mix.

It is an amazing offering and I love watching people transform themselves.

I do not believe that Tulsa has been a place Omega has been to.  There is a site in Austin called “the crossings” and they offer some workshops.
