Overview
A fully revised, evidence-based guide for teaching mindfulness in clinical, healthcare, and educational settings—complete with session-by-session scripts, tools, and training materials.
Mindfulness-based interventions are now widely used to treat stress, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), chronic pain, and substance use disorders. But for many clinicians and facilitators, one question remains: How do you teach mindfulness in a clear, structured, effective way?
A Clinician’s Guide to Teaching Mindfulness provides a practical, step-by-step protocol for delivering mindfulness training across a wide range of settings—from outpatient mental health clinics to hospitals, recovery programs, and classrooms.
Used as the foundation for the VA CALM national mindfulness training program within the US Department of Veterans Affairs, this trusted curriculum has helped train hundreds of clinicians each year and has been implemented globally across diverse populations.
In this updated second edition, you’ll find a comprehensive six-week mindfulness program, along with everything you need to teach it with confidence:
- A complete, session-by-session mindfulness curriculum with clear structure and flow
- Ready-to-use scripts for guided meditations and weekly practices
- Practical guidance on teaching mindfulness using a DEI-informed approach
- Expanded strategies for trauma-informed mindfulness, including working with PTSD, chronic pain, and vulnerable populations
- Best practices for delivering virtual mindfulness sessions and online groups
- Tools for adapting mindfulness across settings, including healthcare, education, and community programs
Grounded in decades of clinical experience and supported by over 100 academic citations, this guide reflects the latest developments in mindfulness research and practice—while remaining accessible and easy to implement for both new and experienced facilitators.
