The Basic Mindfulness Toolkit

Early bird rate expires Thursday

When doctors made house calls they carried a 'black bag' of a few essential diagnostic and treatment tools. With The Basic Mindfulness Toolkit Dr. Janet Sims presents her version of a black bag-a few tools selected for their broad utility in helping people with the mental, emotional and physical challenges of living.

Basic Mindfulness is a unique reworking of vipassana (mindfulness meditation) specifically designed to use logical categories of experience and strategic approaches to increasing mindfulness in daily life. With this workshop you will learn:

1)  The core mindful awareness focusing skills of the The Basic Mindfulness Toolkit (BMT).

2)  A 2-step process for how to choose a mindfulness technique to address the particular issue or concern that we experience personally or that clients present as treatment goals:
*         Difficult emotions
*         Behavior change
*         Urges
*         Rest and renewal
*         Sense-of-self challenges
*         Self-care and exploration

3) Through case examples and self-practice, participants will experience the application of the BMT, both as a client treatment tool and to further self-care and personal development.
