In a recent national survey, more than 41% of social workers, psychologists and counselors said they use mindfulness in their work with clients. Yet, "mindfulness" has become such a large umbrella term that it is not meaningful without a thorough exploration of its many aspects and techniques. However, mental health professionals have not had the opportunity to keep pace with the latest developments in brain function and neuroscience. In this seminar recording you will develop an integrated approach to mindfulness and meditation that will strengthen your own practice and enhance your effectiveness with clients. The latest developments in neuroscience and brain plasticity have lead to revolutionary work in the application of mindfulness and meditation for anger, anxiety, depression and other mental health disorders. You will explore the practical, step-by-step strategies to integrate mindfulness into your life and the lives of your clients. Delve deeper into mindfulness as a foundation for nurturing awareness in yourself and your clients. This seminar is designed to provide you with specific resources and tools for working with a broad range of client issues.
