Mindfulness Teacher Training returning to Delray Beach in August

Open house July 16 and July 21 for people interested in exploring the training

Boca Raton, FL – The Way Mindfulness Education LLC (The Way) is offering its second Mindfulness Teacher Training course of 2019 in Delray Beach beginning in August. Successful participants will earn a Mindfulness Teacher Training certificate of completion.
Around the country, businesses, schools, sports teams, and other organizations are implementing mindfulness programs to improve performance, reduce stress, and support personal health and wellness. As the demand for mindfulness in south Florida increases, more qualified teachers are needed to lead classes and retreats.
The Mindfulness Teacher Training course offered by The Way is for three groups:
  1. People who want to work as mindfulness teachers;
  2. People in the helping professions who want to integrate mindfulness into their work, e.g., doctors, nurses, counselors, social workers, teachers, coaches, or ministers;
  3. People who simply want to deepen their mindfulness practice in community and collaboration with others.
Pablo del Real, Director of Education with The Way, is a member of the International Mindfulness Teachers Association and received the Five Mindfulness Trainings from Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh in 2009. “Most of the time, our bodies and our minds are not in the same place,” says del Real. “The separation of mind and body is stressful. Mindfulness brings the mind home to the body in the present moment, free from regret and worry.”
The Way’s teacher training consists of 100 hours of education, including 50 hours of classwork and 50 hours of independent study and practice. The course is scheduled to run from August through November 2019, meeting on three Tuesdays and one Sunday each month.
For anyone who would like to ask questions, meet the teachers, or register for the course, Mindfulness Teacher Training open house is scheduled for Tuesday, July 16, 6:00-9:00 p.m. and Sunday, July 21, 4:00-7:00 p.m. The open house and the training take place at Delray Beach Historical Society, 5 NE 1st Street, Delray Beach, FL 33444.
