A Review by Danny Pettry

Goals of this session included:

·         Identify  at least three evidence d based research outcomes of mindfulness meditation

·         Identify the requirements for meeting basic competencies in order to provide mindfulness mediation as a Recreation Therapy treatment intervention under the supervision and recommendation of an attending physician.

I personally enjoyed this session a lot. I heard a lot of good comments about it as well.

I believe this is the site where he received his training: http://mcleanmeditation.com/
