I soon realized that with a little work, the material could be useful to people who are not able to attend a live MBSR class, either because of financial or geographical limitations..

There is even a way for people without internet to have access to the course. One of the reasons Palouse Mindfulness can be as effective as a live course is because you are not limited to eight weeks of learning since you can take as long as you like to fully absorb the teachings and practices of each "week", and much more material is available.

Also, a live course, even one taught by a single gifted teacher, will necessarily be limited in range in terms of teaching style and content, but with the Palouse Mindfulness course, you will be taught, through videos and readings, by a variety of world-renowned teachers such as Jon Kabat-Zinn , Thich Nhat Hanh , Pema Chodron , Sylvia Boorstein , Tara Brach , Jack Kornfield , Sharon Salzberg, Kristin Neff , and Shauna Shapiro see the NOTE at the bottom of this page.

UMass Chan Medical School, our academic partner, has been at the epicenter of this progress and the leading provider of mindfulness training programs for decades.
