Adult Mindfulness Training Manual

The basic aim of this manual is to present the Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) protocol. The programme presented here is mainly based on the original MBCT programme 'Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy for Depression' by Segal, Williams and Teasdale (2002). In addition, some explanations, activities and practices proposed in the subsequent books 'Mindfulness: How to Find Peace in a Frenzied World' by Williams and Penman (2015) and 'Practical Mindfulness Manual: Mindfulness Meditation' by Teasdale, Williams and Segal (2016) were added, which emphasise not only depressive symptoms, but also anxiety and stress symptoms. The protocol was structured over six weeks in order to provide the understanding and skills necessary for the therapist to transmit basic knowledge of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) as well as mindfulness practices to the participants. As such, the format of this manual is intended to support and guide you through the six-week programme based on MBCT. The route to understanding and replicating the programme will be explained in detail in this book.
