Teaching Mindfulness-Based Programs online: perceived costs and benefits
The field would benefit from further considering best practice concerning nuanced aspects of online MBP delivery, particularly around how embodiment is communicated and safeguarding participants. The challenges and opportunities identified in this study are likely to be applicable to other online learning and therapeutic environments. The apparent lack of diversity amongst MBP teachers could limit the potential for MBPs to impact broad sectors of societies, though it is unknown how representative the current sample is.
