- Synopsis
- Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), as pioneered by Jon Kabat-Zinn and others, is now being successfully applied in myriad areas of human activity--and most recently, in education. It's no surprise that psychologists and educators have found that mindfulness-based practices improve attention and performance and reduce stress in the classroom and in other school-based activities. This practical guide explains mindfulness and its applications and shows educators how it can be used with students.Topics include * cultivating resilience and managing stress * emotional development * communication and relationships * mindful use of technology * mindfulness for enhancing creativity * mindfulness and sports * teaching with attention * working with resistance * managing personal stress in the classroom * and much more This book is essential reading for teachers, counselors, parents of children high-school-age and above, and college and graduate students.
