Logistics

The Mendful Immersion is a nine-month program that consists of:

  • Three five-day in-person meetings in Northern California (three full days — arrive on a Wednesday evening, train Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and leave on Sunday morning. Dates are:

    • October 15-19 2025

    • February 4-8 2026

    • May 20-24 2026

  • Weekly pod meetings with your group of four to practice the skills you learn. These practice sessions will be recorded.

  • Review other peoples’ practice sessions and offer creative alternative interventions — other ways of handling the same situation

  • Use the feedback you receive from others as a way of slowing down your own nervous system, inquiring into what comes up for you in a given situation, and get to integrate and develop more facility with situations you find challenging

  • Optional-but-strongly-encouraged monthly Zoom calls for support, coaching, Q&A

Certification and employment with Mendful

Becoming a practitioner

We want to set you up for success! Therefore, we’ll certify you as eligible to apply for providing mediation on the Mendful app once you’re ready to practice Mendful mediation. Readiness will be determined by agreement of:

  • The practitioner-in-training themselves

  • Their peers

  • The trainer

When you and your community all agree you’re ready, you will receive a certification. If you don’t reach readiness the first year, we’ll work with you in continuing your path to readiness.

 

Please note:

  • Completing the Mendful training is not a guarantee of receiving a job through Mendful — you will still need to apply.

  • Completing the Mendful training is, however, the only way to work as a Mendful mediator.

  • Experienced mediators may be able to assist with the training.

Other Mendful opportunities

Assistantships

We will need two or three assistants for the program. Assistants help primarily with logistics, and also some training tasks. Assistants get compensated by receiving the training free of charge, and may also receive a small stipend. Indicate your interest through the regular application
