The workshop is aimed at those practitioners who have previously completed our using mindfulness with clients (part one) course. As well as extending the range and scope of therapists’ current knowledge and use of mindfulness, the day will focus on two particular areas of potential business activity for therapists: Running group courses and working with schools. Delegates attending part one and two will receive recognised qualification to teach mindfulness to groups and in schools.

The aim is to add to the knowledge and practice base of therapists in supporting clients who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, worry, self-judgment and a host of other negative belief, thought and behaviour patterns.
