The assessment can be used as a pre-test to discover participants mindful state before training, and then used again as a post-test at the end of training to see the effects of the training. The purpose of this assessment (and any quick assessments throughout the chapters) is not to categorize people, but to allow them to explore various elements that are critical for success in developing mindfulness. This workbook contains self-assessments and not tests. Traditional tests measure knowledge and elicit either right or wrong responses. These assessments ask only for opinions or attitudes about topics related to a variety of coping skills and abilities. In addition to the assessments, each chapter includes a set of guided self-exploration activities to help participants learn how to develop mindfulness in their daily lives. The activities assist participants in self-reflection and the practice of mindfulness techniques. These brief, easy-to-use self-reflection tools are designed to promote insight and self-growth. Many different types of guided self-exploration activities are provided, so you may pick and choose the activities most needed by and most appealing to your participants. Many of the guided self-exploration activities include a journaling component that allows participants to gain insights into themselves and more effective ways of living their lives. The guided self-exploration activities are reproducible, you may photocopy as many pages as you wish for your participants or download the free PDFs for ease of printing.
