Educators and students alike face many daily challenges, with increasing demands on our time, attention, and health. An environment conducive to student learning starts with educator self-care and the cultivation of mindful presence in educational practice. Mindfulness is a research-based approach for improving attention, self-regulation, mood, and interpersonal relationships. Participants in this workshop will learn and practice several mindfulness strategies for personal, small group, and classroom use to support a mindful learning climate. 

By the conclusion of the workshop, participants will:

  • Demonstrate understanding of the research-based benefits of mindfulness practice related to health, well-being, and education
  • Practice mindful approaches for educator and student well-being
  • Develop a plan for maintaining a personal mindfulness practice
  • Develop a plan to integrate mindfulness-based practices in the school setting
  • Be able to use a variety of mindfulness practices personally

PRESENTER: Greg Lovell
Greg is in his 11th year at Holmen Middle School. He is a former classroom teacher and current behavioral interventionist specializing in social-emotional learning and mindfulness. In addition to his own meditation practice, he teaches mindfulness to children and adults in a variety of settings.

TARGET AUDIENCE: PreK-12 educators, school counselors, social workers, special education teachers, and school psychologists
