Rooted in Buddhist meditation techniques, mindfulness is a grounding and compassionate self-help approach and healing practice. This workshop will (1) describe how mindfulness can be used to promote awareness of thought and acceptance of feeling, (2) empower educators to incorporate mindfulness into their classroom and home activities, and (3) connect educators with additional resources, such as useful books and videos to practice mindfulness techniques.
