Recenzii

A Mindful Teaching Community is an accessible and inspiring contribution to the literature on mindful and relational teaching. Kelly Hanson and her colleagues introduce educators to mindfulness practices and guide them in inquiry through the self-study of teaching practices. Through their stories of experience, they offer teachers practical approaches to being authentically present in classrooms and in professional learning communities.
Anyone who is interested in how mindfulness is applied in real-life classrooms will find this book a great introduction. For interested researchers as well as practitioners, this book provides specific examples of how teachers have applied mindfulness to their personal growth and teaching interests, such as art and ecology. Hansen links these practices to relevant research literature, which provides a useful introduction for teachers and administrators who may be interested in implementing a mindfulness program in their school.
