Mind-Body Bridging Program
The Mind-Body Bridging Program (MBBP) is an awareness training program (ATP)to help individuals improve their health condition and attain a state of well-being. Bridging is the primary technique that facilitates the healing process, by bringing one back to the present moment to experience thoughts, emotions and physical sensations. Bridging aims to reduce the impact of negative thought patterns that contribute to stress in the body.
