However, the quality of the training and the skills that BMC\u00ae graduates acquire through their process can be of enormous personal and professional enhancement, very often recognized and appreciated both in public and private work fields. All BMC\u00ae graduates are recommended to join the Body-Mind Centering\u00ae Association, BMCA, as Professional Members. This allows them to the use of the registered trademark in their promotional materials. The BMCA guarantees professional standards, code of ethics and more education opportunities for its members.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1320","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lebensnetz.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1320","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lebensnetz.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lebensnetz.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lebensnetz.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lebensnetz.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1320"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.lebensnetz.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1320\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4144,"href":"https:\/\/www.lebensnetz.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1320\/revisions\/4144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lebensnetz.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1320"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
