Full Description

Mindfulness-Based Mind Fitness Training (MMFT) has been tested through rigorous neuroscience and stress physiology research, funded by the U.S. Department of Defense and other foundations. Since 2008, Dr. Elizabeth Stanley and her collaborators have conducted four studies with combat troops preparing to deploy to Iraq and Afghanistan—with strong positive results published in top-tier scientific journals.

Some key benefits supported by the research:  

Improved Cognitive Performance: Greater sustained attention, better working memory capacity, and fewer negative emotions

Better Physiological Self-Regulation and Resilience: more effective stress responses during challenge and faster/more complete recovery afterwards, better-quality sleep, and improved biomarkers of resilience and immune functioning

Better Regulation of Negative Emotions: Greater pain tolerance, better pain regulation, lower perceived stress, less emotional reactivity, and better impulse control

While these benefits were documented among troops preparing for deployment, they are available to everyone! For those of us facing less stressful circumstances than combat, the beneficial outcomes are likely to be even greater. 

To know more about the MMFT Online course and its Ukrainian language translation, and to help support the training of Ukrainian-speaking first responders, health care providers, military veterans, and community and business leaders to bring these life changing tools in their communities, visit https://elizabeth-stanley.com/courses/mmft-in-ukraine/

Extraordinarily helpful to me - one of the best investments of time and money I have made

I just finished telling a friend all about how helpful this course has been to me, and I came here to grab the link so I could share it with her. I was surprised to see the other review!

To me, this course has been incredibly helpful. (I had already read Widen the Window before taking the course.) For almost two decades, I've struggled with a lot of psychological and emotional "problems" that I spent so much time, money, and effort trying to solve. Well, I now know that I was really dealing with a tremendous amount of accumulated stress and trauma. Through this course, I've gained the skills to address that.

I'm not even completely through the course and already feel a thousand times better than I did. Yes, I went through a period where things got worse for a while, but I'm glad I've stuck it out.

The only critique I have of this course is that it could be better informed on behavior change and habits. There's a lot of advice to "go all in" or just stick with things for a certain amount of time. I have not found that to be helpful. I prefer the Tiny Habits approach of BJ Fogg, PhD. I recommend checking out his work in conjunction with doing this course. (You can take his online intro to Tiny Habits for free.) It helped me take the "what to do" that this course teaches around stress and trauma and actually change my behavior in helpful ways.

Book is better

Got a lot more from the book than this course. Not very good value.
