About the Conference Date: 20th and 21st November 2009 Venue: UEL Stratford Campus Medical and psychological research and interventions have been integrating mindfulness tools since the late 1970s and to date there are more than 900 publications supporting the validity and breadth of this healing approach. Thus one could argue that the time is ripe to look at mindfulness interventions in more detail and from a number of different viewpoints. The conference at UEL on 20th and 21st November, 2009 aims to introduce both specialists working in healthcare, psychological and preventative care, as well as interested individuals who wish to inform themselves of cutting edge health interventions, to the field and applications of Mindfulness. http://www.uel.ac.uk/mindfulness/index.htm |
