When: 11 Dec 2023 - 13 Dec 2023 This three-day online training course will be taught experientially and we will be developing understanding, confidence and skills in mindfulness-based supervision through a process of mindful exploration and inquiry. Watch a short 5-minute video from our Supervision Lead, Alison Evans: We will explore together the underlying foundations of mindfulness from which come the principles, tasks and functions of mindfulness-based supervision. We will introduce a Mindfulness Supervision Framework that includes a supervisory inquiry process. Discussion and skills practice will help us better understand how the Supervision Framework can be applied in supervision across a spectrum of mindfulness-based approaches, including the supervision of students and teachers, and for those working one to one, and in groups and organisations. Time will be given to practice, reflective time and to exploring together in dialogue in small and large groups as we learn through our individual and collective experience. The intention is to create an open, spacious learning environment that will encourage and support spontaneity and creativity.
