The Miracle of Mindfulness for Educators and Students | Teaching Channel

Join us for an academic adventure about the power of mindfulness for both educators and students. Learn how to “unleash your inner zen” as you study the science of mindfulness and how it sharpens students’ ability to focus, improves their capacity to make good decisions, and increases academic achievement. Compare and contrast mindfulness with social thinking and learn how to apply its research-based practices to cultivate deeper, more empathetic connections. Understand how moving mindfully, spending time in nature, and being intentional with technology have the transformative power to improve your, and your students’, health and well-being. Investigate the connection between social-emotional learning, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness practices to create a more confident and empowered sense-of-self so both you and your students can thrive in the classroom and beyond.
