Our new Mindfulness in Recovery® Course Is Now Available
Taking the Mindfulness in Recovery Facilitator course was an incredibly rewarding experience. I enjoyed how it deepened my understanding of mindfulness and equipped me with the tools to guide others on their recovery journeys. The course struck the perfect balance between theory and practice, offering insightful content and hands-on techniques I can use in facilitating group sessions. I particularly appreciated the emphasis on empathy and creating a supportive, non-judgmental space for participants. This course has not only enhanced my own mindfulness practice but also empowered me to help others cultivate their own path to healing and growth.

The MIR facilitator course exceeded my expectations and also challenged me in important areas of my personal practice. I highly recommend this course for anyone pursuing mindfulness as a lifestyle, practice, and have the ability to train others in this important lifestyle.

I found the MIR Facilitator Certification Course to be of great value, benefit and meaning to me both for my personal growth in my practice, and in preparing me to be a qualified MIR facilitator. The course challenged me on both levels, and through the challenges I’ve learned and grown. I highly recommend the course to anyone interested in bringing MIR others to help facilitate their growth in recovery.
