Deepen your skills. Participating in this 5-day, online, retreat-like workshop will enable you to advance your teaching skills and energize your clinical work through greater attentiveness, self-awareness, teamwork, and self-monitoring in stressful and demanding clinical situations.
Energize your clinical work and teaching. You will develop greater expertise, self-awareness, deep listening and resilience in your role as clinician and teacher. You will help yourself and your future students find joy, provide compassionate care and navigate stressful and demanding situations that clinicians face daily.
Clarify and focus on your own learning needs. We create a learner-centered environment that helps you define and realize you own learning goals, and we promote a learning community in which you will learn from facilitators and colleagues.
Limited to 24 participants.
A participatory, "virtual," online program, where the actual experience is far from virtual. Rather, the program is dynamic and interactive and participants’ engagement is very tangible and present. We create a learning community using asynchronous multimedia presentations and reflective activities and live (synchronous) interactive large group presentations that combine didactic presentations and practical training in conducting experiential exercises using narratives, appreciative interviews, inquiry-oriented discussions, and contemplative practices such as mindfulness meditation. The online format offers new possibilities for engagement in educational and practice settings and time zones and continents, including opportunities for connections with one another beyond the confines of the course. You will receive guidance in teaching and facilitation skills in large- and small-group settings.
Designed by physicians for medical practitioners (physicians, NPs, PAs) and others involved in medical practice and medical education.
Implement Mindful Practice in Medicine® programs. You will learn how to implement programs in medical education and healthcare institutions.
A world-wide reach. Connect with Mindful Practice facilitators from over 20 countries.
At the conclusion of this workshop, participants will be able to:
Articulate principles of and evidence supporting mindful practice programs.
Demonstrate skills in introducing, guiding, and embodying individual contemplative practices.
Demonstrate skills in introducing and conducting key interpersonal elements of mindful practice programs, including salon, narrative exercises, appreciative interviews, and inquiry.
Demonstrate teaching and facilitation skills in large-group and small-group settings.
