Administrators Gillian Florence Posted July 24, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hi everyone! I just watched the replay of this week's Q&A and realized there are some questions lingering about the self-assessment rubric, perhaps certificate requirements as well. This thread will be dedicated to asking and answering any questions related to curriculum & certification. Also - you can now find a helpful FAQ document on the Certification Requisites page! https://teach.mindfulnessexercises.com/mindfulness-meditation-teacher-certification/ You are also free to email me or send a private message if you prefer.

Alan Cantor Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Hi, On page 10 of the workbook there is mention of an appendix which has exercises on Eating Mindfully and an Eating Meditation. Where are these located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Gillian Florence Posted September 13, 2021 Author Administrators Share Posted September 13, 2021 Hi Alan! Great question. This is a mistake and the names need to be changed in the workbook. I will ask someone on the tech side of things to do this. However, the mindful eating exercises you can explore are located at the link below, starting at pg. 26: https://teach.mindfulnessexercises.com/course/appendix/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Gillian Florence Posted October 12, 2021 Author Administrators Share Posted October 12, 2021 In last Wednesday's call, the question came up about whether or not any practices one leads during the new Tuesday support calls can count towards the certification requirements. It's been decided that one teaching per type of meditation can be led during the support calls. In other words, of the 21 meditations you need to lead before submitting for certification, up to seven can be from the support calls - one per type of meditation. Let me know if you have any questions about this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carole Demarest Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Hi, For the certification, do we need to submit a completed electronic version of the workbook with all of the exercises filled in? I printed out the workbook but wanted to make sure that I complete it electronically if I need to submit it to show the exercises are complete. Thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Gillian Florence Posted January 7 Author Administrators Share Posted January 7 Hi Carole, Great question! Most people have submitted a completed electronic copy of the workbook. However, you can also fill it out by hand, have it scanned (into a single document in the correct order), and send it to us electronically that way. So long as we are able to read the handwriting when it is scanned, this will suffice. I hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carole Demarest Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Great- thank you! That is helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carole Demarest Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Hi, For the daily meditation tracking, are we only allowed to use the meditations linked in the document? Or are we able to use others to count towards our hours? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self-guided mindfulness meditation can be included as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beverly Mazza Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 The 7 meditations that we are required to guide 3 x, are there scripts for these? I thought I saw something at one point but cannot find them anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Beverly, Yes, they are in the appendix - https://teach.mindfulnessexercises.com/course/appendix/ You do not have to be completely on-script for these teachings. When it comes to submitting audio/video for certification, we'd like to see you speaking in your own words rather than strictly from a script. But you can certainly use these to guide you!
