Along with teaching underlying theory, this book also offers practical options, suggestions, examples, and even reminder lists so you can swiftly put what you learn to use. The approach in this book is descriptive instead of prescriptive, offering options instead of instructions to help you develop your own style of teaching.

This book is elegant subtle and spacious and at the same time rigorous and - photo 1

This book is elegant, subtle, and spacious, and at the same time, rigorous and honest. Therefore it can be extremely useful to those with serious aspirations to teach and those who already do teach mindfulness in the forms of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), and beyond. You can learn a lot about yourself by incorporating Brandsmas high-resolution perspective into your own meditation practice and attending carefully to what if offers, both inwardly, and in terms of your own teaching. You will find that it is your own emergent embodied learning from the process that does all the work, only then it is not exactly work, or entirely a matter of doing.

Jon Kabat-Zinn, founder of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and author of FullCatastropheLiving and ComingtoOurSenses

This is a must-have book for anyone interested in teaching mindfulness! Brandsma shares his considerable knowledge of the ins and outs of teaching in a way that is incredibly helpful, including lots of concrete examples of esoteric practices like inquiry which make the process of teaching mindfulness much easier and straightforward. I wish Id had this book when I was first learning to teach.

Kristin Neff, PhD, associate professor in the department of educational psychology at The University of Texas at Austin, and author of Self-Compassion

This is an outstanding and welcome book! With clarity and insight based in extensive personal practice, and considerable experience teaching mindfulness, Rob Brandsma identifies essential skills and competencies, and provides in-depth examples, including scripts, citations, and historical context, to help the aspiring or experienced teacher grow, enrich, and deepen their mindfulness work with others.

Jeffrey Brantley, MD, founder and director of the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction program at Duke Integrative Medicine, author of CalmingYourAngryMind, and coauthor of DailyMeditationsforCalmingYourAnxiousMind

Mindfulness transforms lives. Robs warm but practical book will help you do this ever more effectively.

DannyPenman, PhD, coauthor of the international bestseller, Mindfulness

As someone who has been involved in the teaching of mindfulness since it was first brought to the United States, I found myself continually applauding TheMindfulnessTeachingGuide for its accuracy (not easily attained), depth, and usefulness. It will carry forward the fields of mindfulness studies and application.

Sharon Salzberg, cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society and author of Lovingkindness and RealHappiness

Teaching mindfulness is as much an art as a science. It requires a firm understanding of how mindfulness can serve to reduce stress and alleviate suffering as much as the ability to make this understanding come alive, intuitively and intellectually, for others. This book is a wonderful gift. It goes far beyond what any manual can offer, and opens the readers perspective to what might be referred to as the hidden curriculum. It serves as a companion and wise teacher, providing answers and insights from the minute details of teaching to the broader view on the inner journey of becoming a teacher. Few people are as exceptionally well placed to serve as a guide on this journey as Rob Brandsma is, having taught and supported hundreds of teachers at his center in Amsterdam, Netherlands. This book will be treasured by anyone who is passionate about teaching mindfulness.

ThorstenBarnhofer, PhD, associate professor at the University of Exeter, and coauthor of MindfulnessandtheTransformationofDespair

This how-to guide to teaching MBSR fills an important gap, and does so with great skill, discernment, and heart. Rob Brandsmas wealth of experience shines through as he explains the artistry and practical skills of MBSR teaching. He tackles some of the most important questions inviting teachers to be the very best teachers they can be in the service of their clients, but never losing sight of the heart as the compass for this work. It is a beautifully rich and practical contribution.

Willem Kuyken, professor of clinical psychology in the department of psychiatry at the University of Oxford

This book is the most comprehensive guide to teaching mindfulness to date. Rob Brandsma, who has taught mindfulness for many years, including at the Dutch Parliament, systematically unpacks and addresses the subtle details of the art. No question is left unanswered. Both seasoned and novice mindfulness teachers will want this book as a reference for years to come.

Christopher Germer, PhD, clinical instructor at Harvard Medical School, and author of TheMindfulPathtoSelf-Compassion

This lovely book is full of the sort of wisdom and insight that comes from long and thoughtful experience. The author obviously teaches a lot, and pays attention to exactly whats happening. He understands the limits of words, yet offers clear explanations and nice examples of helpful ways to phrase things. Highly recommended.

Ruth Baer, author of ThePracticingHappinessWorkbook

This book is a great contribution. The subtleties and nuances of the subject come alive in the writing. It very beautifully articulates the essence of the mindfulness-based teaching process, and will be a great support to developing teachers (all of us!).

Rebecca Crane, PhD, director at the Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice at Bangor University in the United Kingdom

Rob is a dear colleague of mine and I have greatly enjoyed teaching together. I warmly recommend his book for both mindfulness teachers to be, and experienced mindfulness teachers. May it not only enhance their own mindfulness skills, but also that of their participants!

Anne Speckens, professor of psychiatry, and founder and director of the Radboud University Medical Centre for Mindfulness in Nijmegen, Netherlands

As mindfulness training becomes ever more popular, more and more people are drawn to share their experience of it. Sadly, not all of these have taken the time to train appropriately. Rob Brandsma has a deep understanding of MBSR and other mindfulness-based approaches, and the wisdom he shares in this book will be a great help to anyone setting out on the path of teaching mindfulness to others.

Michael Chaskalson, author of MindfulnessinEightWeeks

Based on years of experience, Rob Brandsma offers mindfulness teachers clear, step-by-step guidance for leading students through the often-challenging adventure of learning mindfulness practices. Filled with detailed, real-world examples, this book offers us a caring, balanced, seasoned mentor at our side as we strive to help our students live richer, more awakened lives.

Ronald D. Siegel, PsyD, part-time assistant professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School, and author of TheMindfulnessSolution
