Description¶
An introductory, skills-based mindfulness curriculum developed from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy that sequences four themes across eight sessions and includes daily home practice for general adult learners.
Components¶
- M-FP mindfulness curriculum sequencing four understandings-and-skills themes across eight sessions with daily home practice: The Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Finding Peace in a Frantic World (M-FP) curriculum is an introductory, skills-based training built on mindfulness-based cognitive therapy core elements and designed for improving well-being in the general population. It develops four sequenced themes: recognizing autopilot and bringing mindfulness to everyday present-moment experience; recognizing thoughts, emotions, sensations, and impulses while stabilizing attention; recognizing unhelpful patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting; and learning skills for keeping balanced and responding skillfully when difficulties arise. "The curriculum has eight sessions that work sequentially through these four main themes," with home practices including a daily 20-minute mindfulness practice. (Montero-Marin et al (2021))
