RETREATS

Alison has completed the Bodhi College Teacher Training Programme. This extensive three-year programme included study, teacher led talks, peer discussion, peer practice and feedback and regular mentoring with faculty.  As part of the training Alison assisted and co-taught several retreats, particularly for teachers in contemporary mindfulness communities. Alison continues to teach retreats each year in conjunction with training programmes delivered by The Mindfulness Network, University of Oxford Mindfulness Training and Oxford Mindfulness Foundation (12 month teacher training programme) .

This is a retreat day with other supervisors, mentors, and leaders. We will explore mindfulness and compassion-based practices in relation to embodied dialogue when in a supportive role. Exploring these relationships through the lens of practice will open a space to bring the work right into the practice, with the aspiration of taking the practice right into the work.
