Contemporary Applications of Mindfulness, Mindfulness Meditation and Mindfulness-Based Interventions

Description

Trace the historical and contemporary development of mindfulness meditation (MM) as it has developed into scientific protocols for the purposes of clinical application and research methodologies. Learn about how these early protocols have been adapted and transformed into applications for education and the corporate world as Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBI’s).  MBI’s are employed by practitioners and researchers as research-based methodological approaches to cultivating an optimal mind. Depending on the MBI, the intent is to enhance one’s health, wellness, resiliency, learning, and potential. This course briefly surveys and explores the spectrum of contemporary MBI’s and their practices, while helping learners to further target and train in MBI protocols. The spectrum of MBI’s covered may include MBSR, MBCT, DBT, ACT, Insight Dialogue, the burgeoning compassion models, as well as mindfulness based curriculums in education and the workplace.
