Where: Online Event
Tutors: Ted Meissner, Bethan Roberts
Offering mindfulness in the workplace has the potential to increase wellbeing and resilience; support capacity for creativity and collaboration; and to enhance people’s ability to reduce stress, stay agile and maintain focus in the midst of complexity.
The multitude of different organisational structures, ranging from small charities and start-ups to global corporations and conglomerates means that one style of delivery does not fit all. This specialist training supports those interested in bringing mindfulness into workplaces through the process of developing skills and experience and creating and delivering a plan for implementation.
This training will be of greatest benefit to those who already have a clear route to workplace delivery – either because they are already situated in a workplace context and understand how such an offering might be placed, or because they are freelancers with links to organisations.
Who is it for?
- Those interested in bringing a mindfulness-based approach to workplace contexts by way of holding mindfulness practice sessions, team ‘introduction to mindfulness’ training, mindful coaching, mindful management training, or wider mindfulness for resilience and wellbeing workplace offerings.
- Those who have previously trained to teach a mindfulness-based program curriculum that want to learn how to deliver a more varied offer within the workplace.
- Organisations wanting to implement a holistic and integrated mindfulness-based approach.
Learning Aims:
- Further develop mindfulness teaching skills
- Understand specific considerations for delivering mindfulness in workplace settings.
- Determine effective strategies for introducing and growing mindfulness in different workplace settings
- Learn ways to structure and scale your offerings in a way that is appropriate to your context
- Explore ways of creating a self-sustaining support network.
Pre-requisites for attending:
- Participants need to have been meditating regularly for at least six months using practices that are compatible with mindfulness-based approaches.
- Participation in an eight-week mindfulness-based program would be of benefit and is a requirement for anyone teaching a mindfulness-based program curriculum.
- Attendance at the Mindfulness Network Essentials training or equivalent
Nb. This training is not curriculum based. If you want to teach Mindfulness-based Program curricula as part of this approach, you will also need to complete the relevant Curriculum Specialist (such as MBSR, MBCT).
Participants must commit to the entire online training. Unless there are exceptional circumstances, we are unable to negotiate late arrivals or early leaving. If this is not possible, please contact us to discuss before submitting an application.
Please note this training involves a commitment to interim between session home practice and peer group work.
