Mindfulness Based Addiction Recovery (MBAR) is a memeber of the British Association of Mindfulness-Based Approaches (BAMBA). And is a secular mindfulness-based approach promoting recovery from addiction and working positively with slips and relapses. It was developed by Dr. Paramabandhu Groves in collaboration with Valerie Mason-John. Groves and Mason-John provide the Train the Trainer course for professionals, medical, health and addiction workers, and mindfulness teachers, so that they can deliver the MBAR 8 Week Course.
