- Title
Mindfulness Meditation as a Therapeutic Method for Philosophical Counseling.
- Authors
JA-YEON LEE
- Abstract
Psychologists and psychotherapists have contributed to the popularization of mindfulness meditation in non-Buddhist circumstances. In the practice of psychology, mindfulness has been applied as a method, which is expected to yield a certain specific result. Mindfulness practice which is applied in psychotherapy is overwhelmingly focused on a stream of tactile sensations and the cognitive aspect. In such cases, mindfulness practice gets isolated from its original context which is related to intrinsic human capacities as well as ethics. In this workshop I will bring out mindfulness meditation practice in the Buddhist context with a view to understanding an authentic way of practicing mindfulness and bringing possible benefits of mindfulness practice to light.
