Please contact Tim Duerden or Annette Dunn www.mre.re info@mre.re 07411 557573 Mindful Resilience Enhancement Stand-Alone CPD Workshops These workshops are open to anyone who has either completed a recognised mindfulness teacher training programme (e.g. MBSR, MBCT, Breathworks, .bF) or who has attended all 3 Level 1 MRE workshops (the workshops below are also part of the Level 2 training pathway) IntegratedMindfulness Integrate dMindfulnes s Training Cultivating Self-Compassion with Gentleness th th Friday 14 & Saturday 15 October 2016, in South Manchester Inviting participants to move towards difficulty with compassion can lead to emotionally intense moments arising in sessions. While these moments are very significant for the individual's own learning and insight, it is essential that the mindfulness teacher facilitating the session is well resourced and resilient so that they can hold these moments without undue cost to themselves. In particular, it is the teacher's capacity to offer kindness and compassion to themselves in the midst of such intense moments that is so important for the long-term resilient well-being of the teacher. This capacity is also at the heart of teaching from a position of authenticity and implicit compassion. This experiential workshop is primarily focused on exploring how these resources for self-compassion can be cultivated as an ongoing process. There is a particular focus on offering a kind and gentle attitude towards ourselves in that cultivation of self-compassion. To do otherwise is to risk what has been referred to as the “subtle aggression of self-improvement” (Sharples 2003). Teaching the Body Scan Practice Skilfully, Accessibly & Compassionately th th Saturday 11 & Sunday 12 March 2017, in South Manchester Whether you are new to teaching a body scan or very familiar with the standard formats, this workshop offers training in a unique approach that opens the Body Scan to those who struggle with this practice. There are many people who experience their first Body Scan as a torment to be endured, potentially creating such aversion that they might leave the course or need to overcome an understandably distorted view of body based mindfulness practice. The workshop provides a theoretical and practical framework that makes adaptation of the Body Scan to specific needs much easier and more strategic. This framework also makes it so much easier to teach both standard and innovative forms of the Body Scan.
