Event Notes:
This three-hour workshop will give participants the opportunity to apply mindfulness theory and practices to their supervisory relationships. The workshop will include an overview of mindfulness concepts, an introduction to a variety of focused meditation practices, and an overview of the essential elements of the supervisory relationship. Most of the workshop will be experiential in nature. Participants are encouraged to bring their challenges in supervision. We will work with the meditation practices and a series of self-reflection questions and will invite participants to apply these tools to their experiences in supervision. This workshop will strengthen participants’ capacity to transform challenging supervisory relationships.
