One must embody mindfulness in order to teach it well. As mindfulness-based interventions (MBI) grow in popularity, teachers need tools for effective teaching. The Mindfulness Teaching Guide offers a thorough and practical guide for mindfulness teachers and professionals, offering a systematic approach to developing the teaching methods, skills, and competencies needed to become a proficient mindfulness teacher.

Mindfulness has captured public attention like never before. From the classroom to the boardroom, everyone is trying to make present moment awareness a part of daily life. Likewise, more and more professionals are adopting mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) in their work, whether it''s in healthcare, education, counseling, or social services. However, many people lack the resources needed to teach mindfulness well.
In this guide, you''ll learn the three essential skills of being an effective mindfulness teacher: how to guide mindfulness practice, how to explore mindful inquiry, and how to give didactic presentations. Along with teaching underlying theory, this book also offers practical options, suggestions, examples, and even reminder lists so you can swiftly put what you learn to use. The approach in this book is descriptive instead of prescriptive, offering options instead of instructions to help you develop your own style of teaching.
If you want to improve the way you teach mindfulness-no matter what kind of setting you''re in-this book is for you.

Industry Reviews
“This book is elegant, subtle, and spacious, and at the same time, rigorous and honest. Therefore it can be extremely useful to those with serious aspirations to teach and those who already do teach mindfulness in the forms of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), and beyond. You can learn a lot about yourself by incorporating Brandsma’s high-resolution perspective into your own meditation practice and attending carefully to what if offers, both inwardly, and in terms of your own teaching. You will find that it is your own emergent embodied learning from the process that does all the work, only then it is not exactly ‘work,’ or entirely a matter of ‘doing.’”
—Jon Kabat-Zinn, founder of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and author of Full Catastrophe Living and Coming to Our Senses
