What is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness and the coach
Using Mindfulness to Deepen Character Strengths
Relational Mindfulness: Measurement of Mindfulness
This applied course will focus on the reflective practice of mindfulness within positive psychology coaching.
You will learn how to incorporate mindfulness practices into various positive psychology
interventions (PPIs) that you can use and teach to your clients. You will also learn how to develop your own coaching skills using mindfulness, and how to undertake a mindfulness-informed coaching session. The integration of mindfulness within the VIA character strengths will also be illustrated.
Since mindfulness as a coaching tool requires the coach to also practice mindfulness, you will be shown how to develop your own coaching-relevant mindfulness practice.
You will also become familiar with several ways to assess mindfulness as a way to
measure acquisition of these skills.
