Take Healing into your own hands with

the MMFT Course Live on Zoom Starting September 23rd, 2024

Mindfulness-based Mind Fitness Training® is a trauma-informed training approach to resilience and recovery in high-stress environments and daily life

In the live MMFT course, MMFT Trainers will guide you through the neurobiology of stress, trauma, and resilience—with interactive tools and daily practices to help you recover, heal, and increase your ability to thrive during stress.

We are starting the next live MMFT course on September 23, 2024. You can register here.

What To Expect

8 Live Modules

MMFT®’s 8 Modules taught live (2 hrs each) , including its sequence of trauma-informed exercises that are carefully paced to help move someone from dysregulation to resilience.

Personalized Coaching

Live personalized coaching and tailored exercise guidance to work with individual sensitivities during in-class practice and practice discussions

Individual Practice Interviews

Each participant will get an individual interview with an MMFT Trainer, which allows them to assess the participant’s progress with the exercises and give tailored, personalized instructions regarding any challenges they are facing with mind fitness practice. Participants also have an opportunity to ask questions privately.

4-Hour Intensive Practicum

A 4-hour Intensive Practicum, which allows participants to integrate the practices learned to date through a longer period of continuous practice. In the process, participants can challenge their window of tolerance—and then use course skills to self-regulate and widen their windows.

The live MMFT course is a great choice for individuals who want to learn how to embody this material with active, sustained, and individualized Trainer support. Learning as part of a live group also provides external accountability and support, so that the new habits cultivated in this course can stick!
 
Successfully completing a live MMFT Course, either in person or on Zoom, is also a prerequisite for applying to the MMFT Trainer certification program.

What are MMFT’s Benefits?

The original MMFT course (pronounced “M-fit”) was designed as 20 hours of training offered over 8 weeks. It has been tested through rigorous scientific research with U.S. troops preparing for combat deployment. Some of MMFT’s benefits detailed in peer-reviewed scientific research include:

✺ Better cognitive performance

✺Better regulation of negative
emotions

✺ Better physiological self-
regulation and resilience

✺ Better-quality and longer sleep

While these benefits were documented among troops preparing for deployment, they are available to everyone! You can read more about MMFT’s extensive research record here.
