What you can do, or dream you can begin it; boldness has genius, power, and magic in it... - Goethe

Mindfullybeing offers an Online and In-person adapted Mindfulness-Based Program (MBP) called Kind And Mindful Approach to Living (KAMAL), developed by Dr Avinash Bansode and his team. It is anchored in our core values of 5C’s, which are Care, Connection, Community, Compassion and Collaboration.

Nature of KAMAL Training

The basic foundation Year One program involves 12+ months of active and daily engagement in skilled, creative practice, teaching and embodied learning environments.

Years Two and Three will focus on further Deepening Practices, Buddhist Background and Integrating KAMAL into much wider social and workplace contexts.

KAMAL Training is community-focused, inclusive and supervision-based. It is comprehensive and systematic Training. It is deliberately conducted in small cohorts (10-12 graduates) to enhance the learning experience.

KAMAL’s pathway is progressive, flexible, adaptive and takes account of your existing experience and challenges. We believe ongoing community support, collaboration and continuous supervision are the key ingredients for our growth as skilled practitioners and teachers. We endeavour to offer more than just a standard teacher training program but a lifelong relationship of support and mutual engagement. Some of our aims are to;

• develop knowledge and deep understanding
• enhance skills and professional competencies required to teach
• enrich one’s life, work and relationships
• play our role in healing self and our environment
