"Inquiry and dialogue feels like the place where 'the rubber meets the road' in teaching MBSR, if the rubber is the teacher’s ability to get out of their own way to listen and invite students into their own exploration. How our ego as teachers gets involved is brought center stage in the training, which makes it both scary and potentially liberating. The trainers very skillfully invited us into this “confrontation with ourselves,” and provided kind, direct feedback throughout. I left with a new way to think about inquiry and dialogue, as well as a framework for exploring it anew for myself in the classroom and everyday life."

"The ECM Inquiry Intensive was transformational for me as a teacher. Prior to participating in this training, I struggled to incorporate dialogue and inquiry into my teaching in a way that felt consistently authentic and supportive to participants. Thanks to Rebecca's and Margaret's skillful structuring of this intensive training and their expert guidance and support, I have a newfound confidence in my ability to skillfully offer dialogue and inquiry in the classroom."

"The material was very clear and engaging. There was substantial depth, and it was offered in an inviting, open way. The time management was superior. Feedback was to the point, offered with compassion. The pacing felt spacious, yet no time was wasted. The overall “feel” of the course was focused, light, and loving. Thank you so much!"

"It went fast, and I learned so much at the same time. I appreciated the balance between practice and practical. The size of the class was perfect: we each had time to practice, but it didn't feel like too much practice. I appreciated seeing the different styles of the teachers/students, and gained further appreciation for the variability in teaching styles, and further acceptance that my own style will be my own."
