The Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice (CMRP) at Bangor is the largest and oldest mindfulness teacher training organisation in the UK, and has been training people to teach mindfulness-based courses for the last 15 years. We were the first programme in the world to offer a Masters in mindfulness-based approaches and strive to be the best. Our students often comment about our supportive and experiential learning environment, and develop a close and supportive community of learning as they progress through the course.
The staff at CMRP are active researchers in the field of mindfulness. An example is a seminal paper called “What defines mindfulness-based programmes? The Warp and the Weft.
