The Center for Mind-Body Medicine (CMBM) is working toward a more effective and compassionate model of healthcare by training healthcare professionals to combine the precision of modern science with the wisdom of the world’s great healing traditions to help people heal themselves, their clients, families, and communities.

The Center believes that all of us have a great and largely untapped capacity to improve our own health and well-being through mind-body approaches (such as meditation, guided imagery and biofeedback) and self-expression (such as drawing and movement), as well as nutrition, exercise and group support. We offer 4 training programs where professionals learn these skills: Mind-Body Medicine, CancerGuides®, Food As Medicine and Global Trauma Relief.
