MINDFULNESS PROFESSIONAL LEARNING SESSIONS FOR EDUCATORS
The past few years have seen a convergence of evidence supporting the effectiveness of programs that utilize mindfulness skill training in reducing stress and promoting mental health. Studies have shown that those parents, child and youth support professionals, and educators who received mindfulness training had reductions in stress and anxiety and had significant increases in self-compassion, mindfulness and personal growth. In addition, improvements in relational competence, empathic concern, forgiveness and caregiving competence were found.
Mindfulness is a foundation for education; mindfulness training provides the optimal conditions for learning and teaching and also supports all pedagogical approaches.

Mindfulness Everyday has been delivering mindfulness workshops in education for since 2009. Mindfulness Professional Development Training for Educators is designed to improve health and well-being, providing essential self-care tools. Educators can achieve immediate benefits for themselves and also receive support in the implementation of mindfulness skills in their professional life. The programs are customized to fit the timetables of the participants involved.
Through lecture, demonstration, and experiential guided instruction in basic mindfulness practices, our workshops examine how mindfulness practice can be applied by those working with children, youth and their families: educators, social workers, youth workers, guidance counselors, and child support service professionals.
