Professional Trainings

As the wide ranging benefits of Mindfulness-Based Childbirth and Parenting (MBCP) Education on the health and well-being of expectant and new families becomes increasingly known, perinatal health professionals are looking for experience and training in this way of teaching and in exploring how they might bring this powerful skill to those they serve.  In our workshops, retreats and trainings health professionals will be able to begin or deepen their understanding of mindfulness for their own lives, experience first-hand the mindfulness practices as taught in the Mindfulness-Based Childbirth and Parenting Education Program, and investigate the possibilities for bringing mindfulness into the fields of maternal, child and family health in which they work.
