Nous themes: the perspective of mindfulness
Nous has among its aims to explore and develop the unlimited potential of mindfulness training staff of the student-therapist, as the school is based on the assumption that the quality of personal awareness that is central to any therapeutic action.
This enrichment of consciousness is proposed as a key moment in the formation of the pupil, regardless of any future clinical applications of mindfulness protocols to groups of patients.
Mindfulness means "full awareness .
is not easy to render in words a meaning that relates primarily to a direct and personal: "mindfulness" is a mental state that has to do with the particular quality of attention and awareness. A possible description is: "the awareness that emerges through paying attention to the unfolding experience of our lives moment to moment: a) with intent b) in the present c) in a non-judgmental" (Jon Kabat-Zinn).
This state of mind can be cultivated and developed, in particular through the mindfulness meditation.
therapeutic and liberating power of this state of mindfulness is increasingly the focus of scientific interest and research in psychotherapy, medical and psycho-social and educational.
Mindfulness and personal growth of the therapist
in the enlargement of self-awareness through the development and stabilization of mindfulness can be a deeper and more systematic understanding of their mental functioning and above all a direct perception and deentramento from their automatic pattern response body, emotional and cognitive.
This possibility of dis-identification has a profound therapeutic potential and opens the way to the ability to sperimentatre new responses, conscious and deliberate, instead of being to react automatically.
the positive potential of development of mindfulness training as part of a psicotrapeuta involves two aspects.
One, of particular importance, is to stabilize a continuous direct and immediate awareness of their mental functioning , their patterns of emotional reaction, his own psycho-physical structure and energy, and the impact that this more Deep and sophisticated presence to himself by bringing the immediacy of relational unpredictable, nell'accadere here and now interaction with others in psychotherapy. The
second aspect concerns the possibility for those students interested in doing that you will discover the perspective of mindfulness a permanent food of life, personal and professional, then make with mindfulness-based interventions and follow the progress of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy .
Mindfulness and clinical applications of mindfulness
The prospect is having in recent years at international level, a tumultuous crescendo of clinical applications and theoretical developments, as evidenced by a growing number of clinical and neuroscience research, clinical trials, books, dissertations PhD dedicated to this area.
In some areas of the clinic is in place an increasing interpenetration of cognitive and clinical perspective of mindfulness, so that someone speaks - Referring to this integration - the third wave, third wave of cognitive psychology (after the rationalist and constructivist).
More generally, in the dialogue between neuroscience, cognitive science and the prospect of mindfulness, more tight and rich, has opened a horizon of great interest to a broader understanding of the human mind and its potential, especially after the recent discoveries about neuroplasticity and epigenetics.
current stage of development of mindfulness-based Approaches The most systematic and valid is the research and clinical application developed with the MBCT-Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (Cognitive Therapy Mindfulness Based on) developed by Zindel Segal, Mark Williams and John Teasdale. The MBCT
in turn derives from the integration of elements of Cognitive Therapy in the program MBSR Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program.
L ' MBSR is a scientific program, developed in the context of behavioral medicine by Jon Kabat-Zinn and his collaborators University of Massachusetts (USA); is a protocol that has been in the last twenty years, a border area of \u200b\u200bmedical research and psychotherapy called in Anglo-Saxon world integrative medicine or mind-body medicine , which sees the body and mind as a unit that asks to be understood without rigid divisions.
Developed in 30 years (1979), the MBSR has been completed to date over 18,000 people and is offered in more than 400 hospitals in the United States and Europe in the context of integrative medicine.
addition to being recognized as the pioneering experience of psychosocial and clinical applications of mindfulness, is the most studied and validated by the research literature and the richest of new developments. E 'was also included, for its clinical potential preventive and rehabilitative in intervention programs in prisons and schools, organizations to deal with most issues related to stress, that is, the suffering, both physical and psychological.
Finally, the perspective of mindfulness - attuned to the epistemological premises of constructivism - constantly that immediate subjective experience (phenomenology) and leaving aside the first by any model, conceptualization, technique by which we attempt to crystallize the ' experience itself.
