The next 8-week MBSR/MBCTMindfulness Course will be based in Knocklyon and will start on first Monday in October 2017, 7.30pm - 9.30pm. Course FULL.
This eight week course is based on the widely researched international curriculum that represents the gold standard in mindfulness training for stress reduction. Each session involves a mixture of mindfulness meditation practice, short presentations on the theme for that week by the facilitator as well as some group discussion. (Please note that only courses of 8 weeks duration and at least 2 hours per class are recognised as MBSR or MBCT). This course is facilitated by Graham who holds a Masters of Science in Mindfulness Based Interventions awarded by University College Dublin (UCD).
While mindfulness does not claim to be a cure for anything, a growing amount of research indicates that it can be very beneficial in supporting people experiencing stress, low mood or chronic pain conditions. For those who practice mindfulness regularly, it provides a toolkit to skilfully manage life's inevitable stresses as well as promoting insights that encourage better self care.
These MBSR/MBCT programmes are run to the highest standards by a rigorously trained mindfulness teacher committed to a strong personal practice and adheres to the Good Practice Guidelines of the Mindfulness Teachers Network of Ireland. Further information about MBSR/MBCT programmes.
A commitment to the 8 weeks and daily home practice for the duration is necessary to fully benefit. A pre-course questionnaire and/or telephone interview will form part of admission onto the programme. The programme is not therapy, although there may be therapeutic benefits for anyone that participates.
