MINDFULNESS IN EDUCATION

Awareness, exploration, and responsibility of feelings. Reflecting and understanding without blame, judgment (of self and others). Using intention and Trust to manage power relations in the classroom. Deploying the 3 Cs: Embrace Curiosity, build Collaboration, and establish Connection in the classroom and among.

Is it any surprise that a recent survey revealed that teachers’ stress exceeded all other professions in the last year?

Teachers and students have had to adjust, as the entire globe was suddenly thrusted into a pandemic. Pivot became the new buzz word, as unprepared, both parties shifted from the classroom to the world of online learning and back again. “We are building the plane as we fly it”, read the sign in my daughter’s assistant principal’s office. That much was clear.

Teaching and learning under “normal” circumstances is a challenge. Throw a highly politicized pandemic in the mix and the impossible becomes undoable – but YOU are showing up AND doing it.

  • Are you an educator, administrator, or student who is tired of pivoting to the never-ending mercurial forces that are beyond your control? 

  • Are you finding it difficult to remain centered by responding to situations more harshly than you would like?

  • Are you depleted, tired of giving, and finding it difficult to practice self-compassion? 

  • Are you finding it difficult to focus on the positive with respect to the youth you work with when they stir negative emotions within you?

I can help. Pause and acknowledge this THIS IS HARD and you are NOT alone. You are doing the best you can and that is good enough – but you do not have to accept it is ALL you can do.

I will teach you Mindful skills to lean on and into as you navigate this and many other facets of your life. Studies now support the idea that incorporating mindfulness in education calms the mind, reduces stress thus improving focus and students’ behavior.
