Research shows that mindfulness can enhance recovery in both OT and physiotherapy.

What previous attendees have said:
“Great CPD thank you. I liked the specific links to my profession. I learnt a lot in the 2 hours and it worked really well online. I would defiantly recommend my colleagues go on this training. Great introduction to Mindfulness and prospective applications to professions such as Physiotherapy”. (Aicha), Physiotherapist
"Really helpful, thank you. I liked the theory and links to OT including the use of activities of daily living. I think perfectly good for an initial 2 hour training. I had initially thought mindfulness was much more complicated to apply in practice". (Victoria), Senior OT
