Your active participation is key to the success of this program. It is essential to be fully present, both online or in-person training, and to interact with care, courtesy, and consideration for others in the group. As discussions may delve into personal domains, it is of utmost importance that you maintain the confidentiality of the course. To respect this, the question-and-answer session will not be recorded (in virtual programs), ensuring the privacy of all participants.
Mindfulness and related skills are not a magic pill, and some people may experience difficulties with previous trauma. It is essential that you identify with an accredited psychologist or psychiatrist whether any mindfulness or meditation techniques are for you. We want to reassure you that we are here to support you throughout this journey. This course is not psychotherapy, and we encourage you to seek professional help if needed. We will do our best to assist you in finding the right resources.
There are many transformative benefits of meditation and mindfulness, and the skills taught in this course have the potential to enhance your well-being and quality of life significantly. However, these benefits can only be realized through consistent practice. Your commitment and responsibility are crucial. Set aside a minimum of 15 minutes per day to practice, and you will begin to experience the profound effects of these practices in your life.
