LEVEL 1: FUNDAMENTALS

The fundamentals bundle covers the essential knowledge of meditation-related challenges, and  includes a 1 hour introduction , a 3-part research overview, and 2 survivor stories.

The 3-part workshops contains an hour each on:

  1. types of meditation-related adverse effects (MRAEs) (phenomenology),

  2. psychological and neurobiological mechanisms and

  3. mitigation and management strategies, including trauma-informed modifications.

The workshop is oriented toward difficulties that occur in the context of mindfulness-based programs, because this is the starting point for many therapists and meditation teachers. Level 2 will cover meditation-challenges in a wider range of contexts and experiences.

The module is accompanied by live discussion/Q+A sessions with faculty, and combined session with both survivors. The faculty Q+A and discussion sessions are scheduled periodically.
