Chose a 4 or 8-session block. 

Each session will include the exploration of one culture or region throughout our globe through your senses. 

Whether it be with your palate, eyes or your smell as we enjoy a meal together while reviewing handpicked articles or sharing experiences about the skills we have learned from past sessions.  As we immerse ourselves further through ceramic design in creative play, we will improve the mastery of mindfulness through visual, tactile, postural and in-the-moment awareness. This will be followed by some form of meditative, mindful or CBT technique that is best suited to the culture/ region we have honored for that week. The evening winds down with dessert. Those who choose to linger to work on pottery or share more are welcome. 

This interactive exploratory group methodology will allow for improved cohesion and support among the participants and the building of community that you can take with you to create in other aspects of your life and your profession.

Course Schedule

These activities help address certain relevant blindspots within the clinicians’ clinical, administrative, and personal day-to-day practice. While learning these skills  and practices, they also learn how they can be applied to themselves, their patients and their peers. This is accomplished during group coaching, journal article review discusiions, CBT, meditation, mindfulness skills learning and application discussions. The clinician is prompted to reflect upon how the program applied to their day-to-day. This reflection is reviewed in the following sessions and shared with the group. Feedback on what worked or did not and how to modify the skills to apply them more effectively is discussed for better efficacy going forward. Participants have the opportunity to record all their progress and details in a journal provided at the beginning of the course.
