Mindfulness is a life skill that supports well-being, resilience, concentration and empathy. It is our ability to attend to the present movement, with curiosity and without judgement. Studies show that practicing mindfulness can reduce stress and change our brains to affect focus, memory and regulation of emotion.
Participants will:
- Learn strategies for establishing a personal mindfulness practice
- Learn self care practices for managing stress, avoiding burnout, and having self-compassion
- Explore how mindfulness practices can enhance your work in the classroom
- Enhance your repertoire of strategies to building meaningful relationships with students.
Presenter Sara Rudell Beach is founder and Executive Director of Brilliant Mindfulness, LLC. She is trained in the Mindful Schools K-12 Curriculum and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. A teacher with 17 years of classroom experience, she has taught mindfulness to children, teachers and administrators.
