Trauma Sensitive Mindfulness University of Salford

Overview

It is increasingly being recognised that, while the cultivation of mindful awareness is helpful across a wide range of professional contexts, specific mindfulness practices can be disturbing or even traumatising if not tailored to individual needs.

This had led to a trauma-sensitive mindfulness movement that aims to ensure mindfulness practices are accessible and appropriate to those who have or are experiencing trauma.

What you will learn

This Trauma Sensitive Mindfulness module at the University of Salford will introduce a theoretical and practice-focused framework of safe methods of teaching mindfulness. The course will explore how you can safely offer appropriate mindfulness practices to people who are more vulnerable.
