Product reviews for The Mindful Teacher's Handbook

The Mindful Teacher's Handbook removes the mystery from mindfulness but leaves the impact on your well-being and the enjoyment to be had from trying this out. This book takes mindfulness directly into your classroom – ideal for busy teachers personally and professionally. Filled with practical examples and clear explanations, you'll find useful information and ideas whether you're new to mindfulness or already have some experience.

If you've ever wondered if mindfulness might have something to offer your own well-being or that of your pupils, this comprehensive but accessible book will guide you to a decision. As a busy teacher you'll appreciate the clear and succinct descriptions of mindfulness, how it can help and why it works, set directly in the context of school/college settings and relevant situations. It's written for teachers by a teacher whose classroom experience shows through on every page.

There are lots of accessible mindful activities for you to try yourself – the book emphasises the primacy of being mindful yourself and paying attention to your own well-being – but there are examples of mindfulness activities to try with learners of all ages too. And if you want to take it further, there is a comprehensive list of resources and relevant training.
