Mindfulness is a natural part of being human that involves present moment awareness and can be cultivated through formal and informal exercises. Research on mindfulness interventions point to beneficial effects in social, emotional, physical, and academic domains, and mindfulness is increasingly integrated into academic and clinical settings involving adolescents.

This workshop provides an introduction and overview of mindfulness in interactions and work with adolescents through the format of the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for Teens (MBSR-T) Program. This program was created and developed by Ms. Biegel and has been effective among adolescents in mental health, school and community settings.  The MBSR-T, 8-week program has been demonstrated through research to be an effective and evidenced-based intervention to reduce adolescent stress and the physical and psychological problems that result (Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2009; Psychological Assessment 2011). This workshop will include practical experiential mindfulness practices while weaving through the specific curriculum of the MBSR-T program adapted for work with adolescents.  This hands-on workshop is for those that work and/or interact with adolescents.  This is an opportunity to learn more about working with and approaching teens through the lens of mindfulness.  It is suggested that those who attend already have some familiarity with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and wish to learn more about an adapted version with adolescents. 

Learning Objectives:
•  To demonstrate that the field of mindfulness with adolescents is increasing both in research and practice. 
•  To explain the purpose and necessity of introducing and using mindfulness with teens in today’s society and how to implement these skills with adolescents.
•  To explore the 8-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program for Teens (MBSR-T) via experiential activities and an overview of the curriculum skills, exercises and tools to utilize with teens.
•  The ability to being to use the skills learned so that one may be able to integrate and use these skills in one’s work with teens.
