Cultivating the heart/mind with mindfulness: a Buddhist approach to anxiety and depression
A series of two day workshops, each with an optional day of meditation, led by Patrick Kearney and Malcolm Huxter. It is designed for clinicians, program leaders or students already familiar with mindfulness and related practices, blending the traditional and contemplative with the contemporary and clinical. The workshop combines theory, practice and clinical utility through an exploration of the psychology and philosophy taught by the Buddha, and includes presentations, interactive discussion and experiential exercises. An optional day of meditation follows the workshop as an opportunity to deepen one’s personal understanding of mindfulness.
