Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice

Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice The Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice (CMRP) is committed to the promotion of wellbeing through the application of mindfulness-based approaches.

View http://www.bangor.ac.uk/mindfulness for further information. The Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice (CMRP) is a self-funding organisation based in School of Pyschology which is part of Bangor University. The CMRP is committed to the promotion of wellbeing through the application of mindfulness-based approaches. This is achieved by training professionals in the application of mindful

ness based approaches and researching applications of mindfulness. We also offer classes in mindfulness based stress reductions (MBSR) and mindfulness based cognitive therapy (MBCT) to specific populations and the general public both locally and further afield. The Centre is committed to:

Excellence in teaching and research,

Valuing individual learning and development,

Scientific rigour,

Integrity in adherence to the foundational attitudes of mindfulness

We were the first in the UK to establish professional training in the field on mindfulness and we remain one of the leading organisations for the delivery of training programmes. We offer training to professionals through a range of Continuing Professional Development courses (CPD) and through our part-time post-graduate programmes leading to MSc/MA in Mindfulness-based approaches, or MSc/MA in Teaching mindfulness-based courses.

Please share if you can!

Our CMRP team is supervising DClinPsy candidate Jan Feeley on this much-needed research exploring how people with ADHD experience mindfulness courses.

As more people are identifying as neurodivergent and accessing mindfulness programmes, it's so important that we understand what helps, what doesn't, and how we can make these spaces more inclusive.

If you know anyone who might be interested in taking part, we'd be very grateful if you could share this post. Thank you!

Which course is right for you?

Thinking about an online Masters in Mindfulness at Bangor but not sure which path to take? Here's a quick guide:

If you're drawn to the why behind mindfulness- the psychology, the neuroscience, the philosophy; our Contemplative Psychology: Mindfulness and Compassion MA is for you https://www.bangor.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate-taught/contemplative-psychology-mindfulness-and-compassion

If you're focused on the how; applying mindfulness in healthcare, education, or organisational settings; our Applied Contemplative Approaches MA might be the better fit https://www.bangor.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate-taught/applied-contemplative-approaches-mindfulness-and-compassion
