This seminar will explore the way our lives can be seen through the lens of Interpersonal Neurobiology.
In the process of change, we can harness the power of neuroplasticity, the focus of attention, and the immediacy of empathic relationships to transform our lives to a more integrated, harmonious state of being.

This session will bring mindfulness to the experience of transitions, large and small, opening space for acceptance of present moment reality. It can be a time in which we can open more deeply to paradox, playfulness, and insight.

Instructor, Naropa University Co-Editor, Brilliant Sanity
In this presentation, we will draw upon traditional Buddhist teachings and guided contemplations to explore the cultivation of loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy and equanimity, four Foundational practices for awakening our own and our clients’ hearts.
Professor, Naropa University Author, The Courage to be Present Author, How to Be a Help Instead of a Nuisance
As we awaken our hearts and continue to practice mindfulness, we discover that we are interconnected with all beings, including our therapy clients. “Radical Empathy” or “exchange,” our direct experience of our connection with others, is often overlooked or misunderstood, but it can be a rich resource in the therapeutic encounter, too.
Mindfulness practices are being harnessed to treat everything from anxiety and depression to substance abuse and family conflict. But they’re not a one-size-fits-all remedy.
We will explore how mindfulness practices can be useful in treating a wide range of disorders, and how to find the right fit between particular practices and clients.
Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychology, Harvard Medical School Author, The Mindfulness Solution (Guildford Press)
We will learn mindfulness techniques suited to treating specific problems, such as anxiety, depression, and stress-related medical disorders. We will examine how and when to vary these practices based on our clients’ level of distress and capacity to be with their experience.
Author, The Wise Heart Founder, Director, Spirit Rock Meditation Center
This is a psychology of compassion & inner transformation. We will work with the fundamental principles for the alleviation of suffering, the range of mindfulness trainings, the recognition of multiple levels of consciousness, positive mental health, shift of identity, human potential and tools for emotional healing & awakening.
In this session we will use case studies, storytelling and direct exercises to illustrate the power of mindfulness & presence in psychotherapy practice.
In this session through cases, practical examples and our own direct practice we will explore ways to cultivate the art of forgiveness, and awaken to the qualities of the benevolent heart.
Breathing in, we quiet the mind & open the heart. Breathing out, we bring our gifts to the world.
In this session, we learn how to empower ourselves, our clients and patients to embody the power of mindfulness, so that our circle of connectedness and love widens to embrace the healing of the earth and benefit all that lives.
This workshop will give participants the opportunity to experience Contemplative Psychotherapy’s unique mindfulness-based group clinical supervision practice called “Body-Speech-Mind”. Body-Speech-Mind utilizes the group members’ experience in the here-and-now to explore the therapist-client relationship being presented and highlights the phenomenon of “radical empathy” or “exchange.”
