1 Identify your goals and needs

Before you seek out mentors, you need to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve and what kind of support you need. Do you want to improve your mindfulness skills, explore new techniques, or deepen your understanding of the theory and research behind mindfulness? Do you need guidance on how to apply mindfulness to your personal or professional life, or how to deal with challenges or ethical issues? Do you prefer one-on-one or group mentoring, online or offline, formal or informal? Having a clear vision of your goals and needs will help you narrow down your search and communicate your expectations.

A human tendency is often to find mentors who validate/confirm/or build on what we think we already know. When diverse mentorship is the goal, it’s helpful to become aware of the particular lens through which we approach our mindfulness work and then seek out new perspectives and information that can complement or round out our base of knowledge, skills & abilities. As they say, “you don’t know what you don’t know.” One way I find mentors is to read and review content from others who practice mindfulness but who may work in other disciplines, or come from other spiritual or cultural backgrounds. When my response is, “That’s an interesting perspective! I’d like to know more,” that becomes a good sign I should connect and explore further.

2 Seek out diverse sources of mentors

There are many ways to find potential mentors in the mindfulness field, depending on your preferences and availability. You can look for mentors within your local community, such as mindfulness teachers, coaches, therapists, or leaders of mindfulness groups or organizations. You can also expand your network by attending mindfulness events, workshops, conferences, or courses, where you can meet people from different backgrounds, locations, and sectors who share your interest in mindfulness. Alternatively, you can use online platforms, such as social media, blogs, podcasts, or forums, to connect with mentors who have a strong online presence and influence in the mindfulness field.

Teniendo en cuenta que existen diversos tipos de prácticas del mindfulness, lo más conveniente es preguntarte por el tipo de práctica que requieres y así buscar el mentor requerido. Por ejémplo, si lo que requieres es fortalecer tus prácticas formales, tales como meditar o practicar una respiración consciente, puedes entonces acudir hacer la búsqueda desde esos criterios. Diferente a darte cuenta que tu necesidad es de mejorar el mantenimiento de la atención en una tarea, en cuyo caso, el experto en el entrenamiento atencional es el indicado.Ello aplica igualmente para cuando requieras ejercicios puntuales como por ejémplo para salir de los automatismos. Estos criterios te ayudan también para la búsqueda de ejercicios en la red.

Mindfulness is about being in the present moment. What we as humans bring to each moment is a lot. Our past, opinions, and worldview just to name a few. Having a mentor who has a different background or simply is different from you can bring so much to the process. You will learn new perspectives and can get deeper into your journey and process.

3 Evaluate the fit and compatibility of mentors

Once you have a list of potential mentors, you need to evaluate how well they fit your goals and needs, and how compatible you are with them. You can do this by checking their credentials, reputation, expertise, and style of mentoring. You can also reach out to them and ask them about their availability, expectations, and approach to mentoring. You want to find mentors who have the knowledge, skills, and experience that match your learning objectives, as well as the personality, values, and communication style that resonate with you.

4 Build a diverse mentorship team

Rather than relying on one mentor, you can benefit from having a diverse mentorship team that can offer you different perspectives, feedback, and opportunities. You can build a diverse mentorship team by choosing mentors who have different backgrounds, roles, specialties, and interests in the mindfulness field. For example, you can have a mentor who is a mindfulness researcher, another who is a mindfulness practitioner, and another who is a mindfulness advocate. You can also have mentors who belong to different cultures, genders, ages, or orientations, and who can help you appreciate the diversity and inclusivity of mindfulness.

Whether it be incorporating individuals with different skin tone or gender/sexual orientation one leads, if you understand true diversity begins with maintaining diverse thought/experience then you will begin to incorporate the latter.

Have you tried to solve an issue without knowing about it a lot? Like living as a dyslexic without talking to anyone who is dyslexic. A truly diverse mentorship team can not only bring new perspectives but also bring out new ideas that wouldn't otherwise be even thought about.

5 Maintain and nurture your mentorship relationships

Once you have established your mentorship team, you need to maintain and nurture your relationships with your mentors. You can do this by setting clear and realistic expectations, communicating regularly and respectfully, giving and receiving feedback, expressing gratitude and appreciation, and seeking and offering support. You also need to respect your mentors' boundaries, time, and privacy, and avoid being too demanding, dependent, or intrusive. You want to build trust, rapport, and mutual respect with your mentors, and show them that you value their input and contribution.

Building and nurturing relationships is very important. This is all the more so in mentoring relationships. And when the topic of mentoring is mindfulness, it becomes super critical. Here are some of the tips and traps for building the best of relationships in mentoring 1. Suspend Judgement: Understand that the mentor has your wellbeing in mind, and do not get into judging their questions or advice. 2. Listen: This cannot be over emphasized. Most of us listen to react. But what is required is listen to understand. 3. Appreciate: As human beings we are excellent at catching people do the wrong thigs and point that out. A mind set change to "catching people do the right things" and appreciating them goes a long way in mentoring.
