Event Navigation
These retreats (also one in Dehradun in October) for Cultivating Mindfulness in Education will focus on bringing practices to educators so that they can use it in their own lives and based on their experience, share it with their students. The workshop will include talks, questions and answers, group discussions, guided meditations, exercises in stress reduction and relaxation, mindful consumption, and practices to restore and maintain good communication. These workshops stand alone, but can also be treated as Part 1 of a certified Teacher’s training programme in Mindfulness.
Some of the areas of focus would be:
Mindfulness in everyday life, Transforming stress and pressure at work, Deep listening and compassionate speech, Reconciling difficult relationships, Cultivating joy and happiness in daily life, helping children deal with strong emotions and mindful songs and games for all ages
We recognize the importance of creating sustainable programmes in schools that support the well-being of teachers, administrators, students and parents; to nourish educational communities that excel in social emotional learning, ethical education and experiential learning. In doing this the classroom and school become a cooperative family environment, enabling participants to lead happy, healthy, and meaningful lives, and successfully addressing behavioral issues. We are dedicated to bringing these benefits to the field of education as a service to the country.
