USING MINDFULNESS-based COMPASSIONATE COMMUNICATION IN COUNSELING
TBA
Contact: Adcare@AdcareME.org
Mindfulness-based Compassionate Communication is a style of communication that is before blame
and instead is interested in meeting everyone needs. The foundation of this language is based on
Mindfulness, the study of what our experience is right here, right now and sharing that in a way that
feels authentic and can easily be heard and understood by another.
Using this in everyday life as well as in work, especially as a counselor is a technique highly valued.

Come to the coast of Maine where you will be met on the dock for a trip by boat trip Whitehead Island where the sky is dark and where you can see stars that few can still see because there is little light pollution here. We will sharpen our mindfulness skills to enjoy the fresh air, dark skies, take early morning boat trips, learn constellations, listen to talks by astronomy educators who will have their telescopes for viewing on clear dark sky nights, feast on lobster, and stay in classy historically renovated rooms in the lighthouse keepers home and be served delicious home cooked meals using local ingredients.
