A Core Guide for Mindfulness Leaders
A Core Guide for Mindfulness Leaders
Description
Book Introduction
With MBSR and MBCT as its two pillars, it provides a balanced understanding of the theory and practice that modern mindfulness leaders must master.
From building relationships with participants, group dynamics, conversation and inquiry skills, self-reflection and supervision, to responding to ethical dilemmas, each chapter is imbued with lived wisdom gleaned from the field.
This book is not just a manual.
This is a record of the insights the authors have personally embodied through long-term practice and education.
It's like a logbook written by a captain who has learned the constellations, currents, and wind patterns with his whole body on a distant sea, and who passes on his experiences to his junior sailors.
