Teaching MBSR

What to Expect


This teacher training intensive is highly interactive. Throughout the days trainees will move back and forth from experiencing the sessions of MBSR and working in small groups to begin practicing teaching the various components of the MBSR program under the supervision and guidance of the teacher trainers. Inherent in this teacher training is the necessity of a personal mindfulness practice as a platform from which to teach.


The Delivery of MBSR


The delivery of MBSR requires the teacher to teach from a personal integration of what it means to embody a non-judgmental present moment focus with an understanding of how this supports and strengthens such mind states as kindness, compassion and equanimity. This training will provide the opportunity to strengthen these teacher competences.

Didactic and Experiential


This teacher training intensive will integrate didactic and experiential teaching modules. The curriculum includes both large and small group learning, with opportunity for role-play and simulated patient-practitioner encounters. There is daily meditation practice yoga/mindful movement, and periods of silence. The ethical underpinnings of teaching MBSR will be discussed.






Objectives






Participant Guidelines and Prerequisites

It is our experience that successful delivery of MBSR requires facilitators to have a commitment to an ongoing, daily mindfulness meditation practice. To this end we have created recommendations for acceptance to this MBSR training.



Advanced degree or equivalent experience and training, or clinicians in training;
A Participation in an 8-week MBSR program (May be an online program taught by a live teacher)
Experience facilitating group process;
Personal daily meditation practice and/or a movement practice (yoga, qigong, tai chi);
5-Day predominantly silent meditation retreat, which is teacher-led, and primarily involves a variety of formal mindfulness practice (sitting, walking, chi-kung, yoga, etc). Retreats that are predominantly yoga-based or involve a great deal of other activity aside from formal mindfulness practice are not acceptable. This Retreat fullfils one of the prerequisites.
You must have completed MBSR at least one year prior to the start of the TTI, although we will accept a shorter period of as little as six months if they can demonstrate a greater than two year practice of formal mindfulness meditation with specific formal training. We will offer soon an MBSR Course.


Will I be qualified to teach MBSR after taking this training?

Feeling ready to teach MBSR raises a number of important questions.



We see this training as the first step in your development as an MBSR teacher
As a result of participating in this training you will leave with basic MBSR teaching skills. However, this retreat training is not an endorsement for teaching the MBSR program. Rather, we believe that preparing to become an MBSR teacher requires additional training elements in order to develop competency and best practices skills.
As a result the MBPTI at UCSD has developed the MBSR Certification Program.
This training consists of two phases: being granted “Qualified Teacher” status is the first phase, which then moves into the second phase which culminates with being granted full certification as an MBSR teacher. For further information, please visit our MBSR teacher certification pages.
It is our mission at the MBPTI that our MBSR trainees are not only being trained to become competent MBSR teachers
but are also being invited to embark on a journey of supporting a particular kind of awareness that demonstrates an inner and outer listening along with a compassionate stance that incorporates a willingness to expand their understanding of what it means to be engaged in offering mindfulness-based programs.
Deepening Teaching and Refining Our Means
This portion may include attention to languaging, intention, methods and theory, but equally likely is that it will lead to self-exploration, possibly looking at deeper issues that may inform our teaching of various aspects of the program. Beyond specific practices and teachings, we will explore holding our seat while in our own “full catastrophe”, working with challenging participants, reflecting with our own expectations around home practice and attachment to specific outcomes.
