About mindfulness-based supervision
Alison has been instrumental in developing the theory, research, practice and community around mindfulness-based supervision (MBS). MBS is a vital part of the training to become a mindfulness teacher and ongoing good practice for all those working within the mindfulness field. It includes exploring a range of themes and experiences such as: teaching skills, responding to individuals, holding the group process, developing and sustaining a personal mindfulness practice, exploring the links between practice and mindfulness-based work, understanding the underpinning theories, and holding all of this within different contexts and taking care to include and welcome everyone. The main process of supervision is via a relational inquiry process. Alison and colleagues have developed a specific framework for MBS. For a detailed description of the framework and how use it, see the NEW book, Mindfulness-Based Supervision and Mentoring: Using an Embodied Dialogue to Support Learning and Reflection, written by Alison and her colleague Pamela Duckerin.
