Teacher Training: Foundations in MBSR

Instructors: Kasim Al-Mashat

Thursdays October 6th - December 8th, 2022
4:30 - 8:00 PM PST
On-line via Zoom

This 10-Week Online MBSR Foundations Training is organized by the Centre For Mindfulness Canada, in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.  The successful completion of this MBSR Foundations Training is fully recognized and acknowledged by the Mindfulness Center, School of Public Health, the School Of Professional Studies at Brown University, and by the Global Mindfulness Collaboratives.  

​We use the MBSR teacher training curriculum developed by the Mindfulness Center at Brown University, for which we have a collaborative licensing agreement.

The required concurrent participation in the eight-week MBSR class will allow the participant-trainees to engage in formal MBSR mindfulness meditation practices, as well as investigation of themes of perception, automatic, habitual stress reactivity, mindfulness-mediated stress response and interpersonal communication.   

MBSR Foundations involves meeting twice each week (Wednesdays and Thursday nights) over a 10-week period, in addition to the MBSR All-Day.  If your application for 10-Week Online MBSR Foundations Training is accepted, you will be automatically registered in both the eight-week MBSR program and MBSR Foundations Seminar. 

Some of the goals/learning objectives for MBSR Foundations trainees are:

  • Characterize and articulate the personal and collective key learnings made available through the 8-week MBSR curriculum;

  • Express, through personally honed language, the effects and impact of both formal and informal MBSR practices on oneself as well as others in the program;

  • Identify and analyze the critical nature of the relational field and dialogue and inquiry as it shows up in the MBSR classroom, as a specific strength of the program;

  • Offer short introductory programs based on elements of the MBSR curriculum;

  • Ascertain one’s own strengths, personal patterns and responses, and areas of development as a critical component for skill in teaching.

Tuition: $2,500 CAD (early bird rate)
