Angebote / Angebote:

Mindfulness has grown in popularity exponentially over the past two decades, and many educators, therapists and other youth professionals are asked to teach mindfulness in a variety of public settings: schools, detention centres and other systems of care. Many of these youths are impacted by trauma. Through practical methods and real-world examples, Sam Himelstein offers a clear conceptual understanding for why mindfulness may help youth impacted by trauma, explanation about when and how to adapt mindfulness meditations, and practical "mini-modules" for presenting and teaching mindfulness via a trauma-informed lens. This book presents specific guidelines about teaching mindfulness within a relationship-based framework for building the therapeutic alliance and aiding other psychotherapy interventions. Case examples illuminate common experiences that arise with trauma-impacted youth and detailed descriptions of exercises and curricula are provided. This book is a must for therapists who wish to share mindfulness with trauma-impacted youth.
