MBSR/CBT validity?

I did a 10 week Mindful-Cognitive Behaviour Therapy program here in Toronto that is modeled on the MBSR program.

Since I intend to purse the teaching certification and apply for the practicum, should I still do the online MBSR + 5 Day Mindfulness Tools? I wanted to double check since my course wasn’t solely MBSR, but also with the addition of cognitive behavioural therapy.

Many thanks,
Kara

Hello, Kara,

It sounds like you took a modification of the MBSR curriculum. There are many valid, modified mindfulness curricula that people are offering in the world. We ask that people take the MBSR course itself, before embarking on our professional training pathway that leads to teaching MBSR. That would mean either taking the 8-week course locally, or the online MBSR + the 5 Day Mindfulness Tools.

All the best,
Margaret
