Mindfulness Training Course

We start by learning the basics of Mindfulness. and understanding ways in which it can change our life.

This first section includes training in mindfulness meditation. As well as a fully guided audio, we learn how to explore our experience of the meditation by using the bespoke meditation diary.

Section one also introduces us to mindfulness breathing. This includes a fully guided mediation, that focuses on our breathing. We also learn how to use the mindfulness breathing meditation diary. This diary is also designed to record our experience of the meditation, encouraging us to explore our thoughts and physical sensations.

There are also PDFs covering the units below among others which you’re expected to go through in order to optimise your training.

Mindfulness training includes a number of meditations. In section two, we will learn how to bring mindfulness awareness to your experience of the body scan meditation.

We’ll also demonstrate how you can introduce mindfulness training into your daily routine, and start to get maximum benefits, right away. This is learning how to experience the joys of simple awareness. Simple awareness teaches us how we can appreciate everyday experiences in a more mindful way. By doing so, we quickly learn the joys of these simple events, which in turn, help make us happier, healthier people.

In this section we start with mastering the sitting meditation. In the sitting meditation, we learn by way of guided audio, how to concentrate on our breathing as the key object for awareness. We learn to experience how it feels to live in the moment, without judgement.

We then move on to the mindfulness RAIN diary. RAIN stands for, recognise, allowing, investigating and natural awareness.

Going through these stages, we learn to let go of preconceived thoughts, and instead listen in a kind, receptive way to our body, calling on our natural curiosity as we focus inward.

We finish this section by looking at some examples of RAIN diary entries, and see how gentle investigation, can easily open a natural awareness.

In this section we have lots of different Mindfulness exercises for you to try. Some are concerned with Mindfulness therapy and some are designed to develop your awareness, helping you to be in, and with, the present moment. There are lots of tips, techniques and methods that you can employ, in order to:

• Strengthen your self awareness
• Strengthen your ability to focus your attention on the present
• Bring you out of a state of unconsciousness and back to a mindful state

Exercises include, one minute mindfulness, ten second count, mindfulness trigger exercise and the conscious observation exercise.

We finish this section off by learning to use the pleasant events diary. By having an awareness of simple everyday events, we learn to gain joy from such things as the warmth of the sun, smelling flowers, or even experiencing a smile from another person.

This section is designed to help you progress from guided meditation, onto silent, mindful meditation. We've included two audio tracks which are silent, all but for the sound of a gentle bell.

The bell will sound at the beginning of the audio and sound again at the end. This will be either 15 minutes or 30 minutes, depending on the track you have chosen.

The gentle sound of the bell is designed to help build confidence as you learn to pace yourself unguided.

This section also covers the STOP diary. The STOP diary is concerned with learning to stop, to take a breath, to be open, to observe, and finally to proceed.

With the help examples, we use this diary as an exercise to help us in becoming more aware of our personal environment. By practising to stop and observe what is going on for us, we can learn to react positively to situations, bringing us a natural harmony and a more peaceful life.

In this section we have a look at how, with Mindfulness training, we can react differently to emotional and physical pain.

Mindfulness enables us to separate the physical sensations of pain, from the emotional suffering of pain. This can be done by learning how to apply a mindful attitude towards pain.

This is a really powerful technique and with just a little practise, can bring great comfort and tremendous relief.

We then move onto using mindfulness, in order to address emotional pain.

Using the applied techniques, we learn to experience emotional discomfort with a sense of curiosity, rather than with negative judgement. We are encouraged to identify with ourself as the observer of the experience, rather than the experience itself.

This section concludes with the exercise of using the communication diary. This exercise explores our relationship, not only with ourself, but with others and the world.

There are also PDFs covering the units below among others which you’re expected to go through in order to optimise your training.
