Mindfulness Based Relapse Management (MBRM)

Integrating mindfulness across a broad range of client interventions has become an essential part of health and wellbeing services. In addition, many organisations are now investing in mindful approaches to improve staff wellbeing and support those in the helping professions to take better care of both themselves and their clients.

Many studies show mindfulness, or ‘non-judgmental, present moment attention’ training benefits health and wellbeing. Mindfulness and meditation training helps staff to be more efficient, focused and calm and equips people with practices and strategies they can use at any time to help reduce stress and anxiety.

Our introductory training is for those who do not have previous experience of applying mindful concepts to their professional practice or personal development.
