FRIENDS

People and practices we value.

Therapeutic Mindfulness does not exist in isolation. We learn from teachers, practitioners, communities and bodies of work beyond our own programs.

This page is a place to acknowledge some of those relationships and influences.

A NOTE ABOUT FRIENDS

Independent, unless we explicitly state otherwise.

Friends remain independent of Therapeutic Mindfulness unless we explicitly state otherwise; inclusion acknowledges work or a relationship we value, without implying team membership, clinical provision, partnership, endorsement or that their offerings are Therapeutic Mindfulness services.
