Mindfulness for long term conditions
Wednesday 19 November 2025, 9:30am to 4pm
Venue: MS Teams
It is widely recognised that a diagnosis of a long-term physical health condition is likely to have a significant impact on a person's mental health.
The application of mindfulness-based interventions to the management of physical health conditions can have profound benefits for the patients, therapists and medical healthcare professionals.
This 1 day workshop aims to describe the theoretical principles of mindfulness and their clinical application to long to health conditions. It will cover how mindfulness can help patients to step out of conditioned mental reactions that exacerbate difficulties, how helpful action and values-based work can increase quality of life for people with long term conditions, and how learning new ways of responding to experiences with acceptance, kindness and compassion can have a positive impact on adjusting to living with a long-term condition.
The workshop is designed to support the practice of mindfulness-based teachers and is free. It will be hold on Microsoft Teams.
