The Center for Mind-Body Medicine (CMBM) started with a vision to create "a healing community and a community of healers." Since then, CMBM has nearly doubled in size with 20+ employees and 150+ international faculty members to serve tens of thousands of children and adults as we meet an increasing demand for trauma healing and resilience building throughout the world.
For decades, we have shared our comprehensive program of self-care, mutual support, and community building with clinicians and educators, first responders, clergy, and many other community leaders. This has transformed whole communities that have been devastated by war and conflict, climate-related disasters, mass shootings, poverty, chronic illness, and historical trauma. We are honored to have local and national leaders extend their trust to us- in major U.S. hospital and school systems, on Indian reservations, in communities reeling from hurricanes, wildfires, and the opioid epidemic, and in countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa that are in the midst of or recovering from wars. And we feel deeply appreciative that in the midst of conflict, people who mistrust and fear one another come together to learn from us, begin to appreciate their common humanity, and work together for the common good.
