It′s chock-full of hard won insights, and there′s love and rigor in every page, practice, and lesson. Given the adversity so many are facing, this is a book that′s made for the moment. -- David Treleaven, PhDThere is much going on in the world in the name of education that has hardly anything to do with education. Much too is going on in the world in the realm of teaching that is all but mindful. The result is the state of the world we are in today. But education is based on the principle of hope and of possibility.Here is how.Written by passionate educators who live out their deep beliefs about education, the role of teachers, and the consequences of mindfulness in teaching, The Mindful Teachers Toolkit fills a yawning gap in the most important mission in the world – teaching. Awareness-based well-being in schools, cultivated mindfully and pursued intentionally, can restore integrity to teaching and help discover meaning in learning.The Mindful Teachers Toolkit combines uplifting vision with practical pathways to guide the process of teaching to make it purposeful and fulfilling both to the giver as well as receiver of the experience called learning.I commend the distinguished writers for their valuable contribution to restoring faith in this most important of public professions by being mindful, teaching mindfully, and teaching mindfulness as the basis of the teachers engagement. -- Thakur S PowdyelAt a time when we are all more distracted than ever, Burke and Hawkins skillfully communicate how the combination of Mindful Awareness Training (MAT) and Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) create the foundation for Awareness-based Wellbeing (ABW). This book is a treasure trove of resources for a whole span of ages--everyone can find a relevant and useful practice and activity in this book. This invaluable resource nurtures the mind as well as the heart. -- Meena SrinivasanAre you motivated to start implementing mindfulness in classrooms, but in need of more ideas before you begin? Kevin Hawkins and Amy Burkes The Mindful Teachers Toolkit is a fantastic resource for educators! Generously packed full of lessons, tips, and resources, and replete with ideas for developmentally appropriate practices, it will be your "go-to" guide. The Toolkit includes motivators, ideas for making mindfulness fun, ways to expand sensory awareness, considerations for healing the planet, and connections to CASELs framework. If you are looking for ways to incorporate mindfulness into academic lessons, how to enhance your school culture, or for international examples of how others are transforming lives through mindfulness, keep this Toolkit close by – you will be inspired. And over time, as you turn to one lesson and then another, you will gain insight and strategies, and your confidence in your mindful teaching will increase as you see the difference it is making for your students - and for yourself. -- Christine Mason, PhDBoth Kevin Hawkins and Amy Burke, authors of The Mindful Teachers Toolkit: Awareness-based Wellbeing in Schools, have worked internationally with children and young people and with teachers in developing awareness-based well-being through mindfulness and social-emotional learning (SEL), so they bring to their book a wealth of experience and deep knowledge of the theory and practice of mindfulness across cultures…There is so much in this book that it is impossible to do it justice in a short review. I recommend that you read and re-read it for its practical advice, its vision and the dreams for the future of our society. -- Helen Cowie Review Quote There is much going on in the world in the name of education that has hardly anything to do with education.
