The Practice of Teaching Mindfulness - For Educators and Facilitators

The Practice of Teaching Mindfulness offers a curriculum for bringing mindfulness into teaching, learning, and everyday life. Blending theory, research, and practical application, it explores how mindfulness can cultivate presence, emotional awareness, resilience, compassion, and connection. Across five modules, the book includes guided meditations, reflections, activities, inquiry questions, teaching applications, and practical tools for working skillfully with emotions, thoughts, stress, and relationships. Throughout the book, leading teachers in the field share insights drawn from their own teaching and practice. Refined and abridged from Mindfulness for Young Adults, this curriculum broadens the original program beyond young adults to support mindfulness teaching across ages and contexts. It can be used independently, within teacher training programs, or as a resource for integrating mindfulness and well-being into educational and professional settings.
