NUNM Mental Health Conference - The Healing Power of Mindfulness in Clinical Practice
National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) - Integrative Mental Health Conference
Mindfulness has recently become very popular as a tool for reducing stress and increasing relaxation. We, as naturopaths, certainly understand the importance of stress reduction in the treatment of illness and disease. This alone makes Mindfulness a potentially powerful therapeutic technique to consider when it comes to treating our patients. Yet Mindfulness has actual healing properties that extend far beyond this well-known benefit. As curiosity and interest in Mindfulness continues to rise, it offers a powerful tool that can be integrated into the clinical treatment of physical and mental health challenges.
This presentation will provide an in-depth understanding of Mindfulness (what it is and how it is practiced), its benefits in health, wellness and healing (for patient, doctor and the therapeutic relationship) and provide specific direction for its application and integration into Naturopathic Clinical Care. Drawing from over 30 years of using Mindfulness in my own Naturopathic practice, case studies will be shared that illustrate its effectiveness in the clinical treatment of a variety of conditions.
