1. What are the differences among the courses?
Clinical Training in Mind/Body Medicine is a comprehensive introduction to the field and is recommended for those without any formal training in mind/body interventions.

One Day in Mind/Body Medicine is an overview for practitioners who want to know what mind/body medicine is and how the treatment of stress applies to illness and patient care.

Mind/Body Training in Positive Psychology is an advanced course in cognitive/behavioral therapy for those with some exposure to that field or to mind/body medicine.

The Spirituality and Healing conferences are less medically-based and bring together thought leaders in medicine and religion to share cutting edge information on optimal health.

The BHI does not have registration records. You may contact Harvard Medical School Department of Continuing Education at 617.384.8600 or hms-cme@hms.harvard.edu.

4. Will I be prepared to teach mind/body interventions?
Each of these courses teaches you practical skills to enhance your patient care. Mind/Body Training in Positive Psychology provides the most emphasis on skill-building.
