Author & Mindfulness Pioneer

Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D. is Professor of Medicine emeritus at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, where he founded its world-renown Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Clinic in 1979, and the Center for Mindfulness in Medicine, Health Care, and Society (CFM), in 1995. Both the MBSR Clinic and the CFM are now part of UMassMemorial Health.

His work and that of a global community of colleagues has contributed to a growing movement of mindfulness into mainstream institutions such as medicine, psychology, health care, neuroscience, schools, higher education, business, social justice, criminal justice, prisons, the law, technology, the military, government, and professional sports. Over 700 hospitals and medical centers around the world now offer MBSR.

Jon Kabat-Zinn’s books, his app and other guided meditation programs, his public and professional talks, and his in-person and online retreats describe and invoke the cultivation of mindfulness in such commonsensical, relevant, and compelling terms that its practice has become a way of life for many hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people around the world.
