TEACHING MINDFULNESS SUMMIT CE COURSE Homestudy Online
Course description
This 10-hour CE course will give participants a deeper understanding of mindfulness, its neuroscientific underpinnings, and its implications for neuroplasticity. The course will discuss the most up-to-date research around integrating mindfulness into clinical practice, and describe multiple mindfulness-based approaches and their impacts.
Participants will learn about the following techniques: Neuro-somatic Mindfulness, Mindful Self-Compassion, EcoMeditation, and the Cornerstone Process. Throughout the course, participants will learn about the connections between mindfulness, habit-formation, and stress-resistance. The course includes discussions of how to navigate the balance of intuitive and empirical data in meditation, and provides participants with a justice-based framework for mindfulness that can help them to better notice and respond to social inequality.
Participants will gain greater understanding and confidence both for integrating mindfulness into their clinical practice with clients and for making use of mindfulness practices for good practitioner self-care. Teachings are appropriate for healthcare professionals as well as the general public. Healthcare professionals will be able to incorporate the tools and practices offered in this program in ways beneficial to clients or patients.
