Summary: "Essential Resources for Mindfulness Teachers offers the reader a wealth of knowledge about the explicit and implicit aspects of mindfulness-based teaching. The book focuses on how to develop the craft of teaching mindfulness-based courses and is divided into three parts. Part 1 addresses the explicit elements of mindfulness-based courses, such as how to offer meditation practices and inquiry. Part 2 investigates the subtle but powerful implicit qualities needed within the teacher to convey the essence of mindfulness. Part 3 is a series of chapters on the underpinnings, considerations, and theories surrounding the teaching of mindfulness-based courses, and includes a new framework for reflective practice - the Mindfulness-Based Interventions: Teaching and Learning Companion (the TLC). The book is a core companion text for both trainees and established mindfulness-based teachers, and is a resource you will return to again and again"-- Provided by publisher.
