Learn about the applications of mindfulness and mindfulness-based programs (MBPs) in contemporary society.<\/p>\n

This 9-hour training is for professionals to learn about the use of mindfulness in healthcare, social services, education, and the community.<\/p>\n

It emphasizes the two core MBPs \u2013 Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) – and serves as the first training module for the Centre\u2019s certificate training pathways. It also covers Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) and surveys the many other applications including how mindfulness is used as a tool for personal and professional resilience.<\/p>\n

This workshop moves between didactic and experiential practices to cover the historical, theoretical, and scientific underpinnings of mindfulness. It includes an introduction to the three most common Mindfulness-Based Programs: Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC), as well as other clinical applications of mindfulness.<\/p>\n

The experiential workshop explores how mindfulness is increasingly used to address stress, depression, anxiety, and other challenges in contemporary society.<\/p>\n

Participants are given the opportunity to lead a short mindfulness practice in smaller groups with feedback from the teacher.<\/p>\n
