Teaching and Leading Mindfulness Practice
I have gained knowledge, skills, attitudes, and practices from my Mindfulness in Education course which have influenced how I will teach and lead mindfulness in the future. At the forefront of all of my mindfulness teachings are four pillars: teacher embodied practice, trauma-sensitive mindfulness, social justice and mindfulness, and mindfulness for the classroom.

2. Intro to Episode (1:10- 4:26)
3. Must-haves: lessons & in-person peace corners (4:29-35:43)
Including redirection to the present moment, brain function, understanding emotions, SEL skills, gratitude practice, worry boxes, and peace corners
4. Teacher embodied practice (35:44-49:37)
How self-care is a prerequisite to efficacy in the classroom, leading to the embodiment of the five SEL competencies
5. Mindfulness for the classroom (49:38-1:03:27)
Creating a welcoming environment, differentiating the learning, managing expectations, scheduling mindfulness, and the importance of the invitation
