The Center for Training was established for health care practitioners who want to learn about the ground-breaking mind body programs developed by the expert staff of the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine.
The Center is the most up-to-date resource for the ever evolving body of knowledge supporting mind body interventions. Participants will gain a working knowledge of mind body medicine and its clinical efficacy based on the latest scientific evidence.
Training is offered to either individual practitioners or groups from clinical practices, hospitals and health care systems. Format varies from one- to two-day trainings to long-term relationships.
A hallmark of our center is flexibility. All attendees complete a needs assessment questionnaire prior to their training. Program content, duration, and location are then determined to provide a “custom fit”.
The Center for Training programs combine didactic presentations, case histories, skill development exercises, and small group interactions.
