Resources for Teaching Mindfulness
“A deep, supportive, and challenging dive into the art of teaching mindfulness, including the science of it, in the form of MBSR and other mindfulness-based interventions. Highly experienced contributors offer a cornucopia of inspiring, instrumental, and non-instrumental perspectives on the multi-dimensional topology of the classroom in vastly different contexts and cultures. Of particular note is the intimacy of one’s own embodied sharing and exploring of the practice with others as the instructor — with the welcome mat for what arrives within us and between us firmly rolled out in not-knowing, coupled with deep listening, creativity, imagination, daring, and caring.” Jon Kabat-Zinn Founder of MBSR Author of Full Catastrophe Living and Coming to Our Senses
“This book is a wonderful and vital contribution to the field of mindfulness training. The editors have brought together a hugely impressive team of experienced trainers from across the world. Together the authors explore both the general demands that such training requires and the specific needs of particular groups and cultures. This book will find itself at the heart of required reading for students, teachers and trainers of mindfulness-based approaches.
