Course description
Deepen your understanding of the effects of mindfulness on the brain, its impact on anxiety and depression, and how to use mindfulness with patients. It features a mindfulness narrative method, mindfulness for ADHD, and mindfulness for PTSD. Learn how mindfulness calms the limbic system and creates new brain pathways that give clients effective tools for long-term change. This draws upon the work of Peter Whybrow (American Mania), Richard Davidson (Dir. the U. of Wisconsin Center for Affective Neuroscience), Dan Siegel (Parenting from the Inside Out and The Mindful Brain), and Jeffrey Schwartz (Brain Lock and The Mind and the Brain).
