Implementing Mindfulness in Therapy:
A training for healthcare providers
Mindfulness has become a popular therapy approach in recent years, and there is a growing need for knowledge and training in mindfulness practice.
The workshop offers an overview of the principles and practices of mindfulness that are based on Buddhist psychology. This includes theory, research and the practice of mindfulness meditation - personal and interpersonal.
Six guidelines for mindful speaking/listening and for staying mindful in relationships will be introduced and practiced in dyads and small groups.
Participants will learn how to remain calm, present, compassionate and attentive in the midst of the tensions and challenges that arise in the therapy process.
A discussion session addressing the implementation of mindfulness in therapy will include identifying clients, diagnoses and conditions suited for this approach, and clarify how to present mindfulness to clients and practice with them.
