MINDFULNESS FOR EDUCATORS, LIBRARIANS, AND OTHERS: SELF-CARE STRATEGIES FOR DIFFICULT TIMES
Part of the LearningRevolution.com 'Survive and Thrive!' Series
With Dr. Mara Linaberger
OVERVIEW:
This has been a difficult year for a lot of people, whether you're a teacher, a librarian, a parent, or a student. It's hard to go through so much change and trauma and feel centered and balanced, or to be optimistic about the future. The practice of mindfulness can be a pathway to greater peace and purpose, and this webinar can either serve as an introduction to mindfulness that you can immediately put to use, or a reminder if you've previously used these techniques.
As a mindful practitioner for over 15 years, Dr. Linaberger teaches graduate coursework for Wilson College, including a 3 credit graduate course on Mindfulness. In this webinar, she will:
- Overview of the mindful movement in education
- Share research highlights to connect to the power of mindfulness for educators and students alike
- Offer several strategies for beginning your own mindful practice
- Share resources for learning more about mindfulness
- Lead you through a "progressive relaxation" technique you can use daily to reduce your stress levels
