Praise for Mindful Teaching and Teaching Mindfulness: A Guide for Anyone Who Teaches Anything…
"Reflection can become the new basic "R" of education, promoting social and emotional learning while cultivating resilience and resourcefulness in students of all ages. In this wonderful book, the authors have provided a user-friendly guide to developing a teacher's own way of reflecting on the nature of the mind and on becoming open to present experience--of being "mindful"--that can help develop reflection as a way of living and of teaching. Consider this book an invitation to try on a research-proven focus of attention that nurtures emotional balance, promotes bodily health, supports empathic relationships, and even strengthens the brain. What more could we ask for ourselves as teachers and for our students who deserve to be taught in a way the prepares them for life from the inside out?"--Daniel J. Siegel, M.D. author, Mindsight: The New Science of Personal Transformation and The Mindful Brain: Reflection and Attunement in the Cultivation of Well-Being
“Mindfulness is definitely going mainstream. It belongs in the classroom, and parents will hope that their children encounter teachers like Schoeberlein – someone who is fully present and therefore teaches better. And parents themselves will benefit greatly from this book which is a treasure trove of techniques. An apple for this teacher, for sure.”--Mandala
