Some questions to help you decide
Ask yourself the following questions to decide which course is right for you.

If so, please find out more on our ‘Train to teach MBCT and MBSR’ page. - Do you want to train to teach brief and/or adapted mindfulness-based interventions?
If so, please find out more on the Train to teach adapted mindfulness-based interventions page. - Do want to improve your skills in offering mindfulness as part of another intervention/therapy?
If so, please go to the Train to teach adapted mindfulness-based interventions page. - Do you want to train to teach an intervention that includes compassion practices?
If so, please visit Train to teach Mindful Self-Compassion. - Do you work in an NHS Talking Therapies (formerly IAPT) service and want to train to teach Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)?
If so, please visit the MBCT in NHS Talking Therapies page.
