Greetings, colleagues!

Are you interested in the possibilities of creating a more peaceful environment in your classroom? Do you want to become more present in your own classes? Are you interested in the work of scholars and teachers around the country who are finding ways to use mindful practices with student learning? Do you have mindful practices that you could share with colleagues? If so, become part of a network of educators at CUNY who are exploring uses of mindful practices in teaching.

Join us for our second session of Mindfulness Practices in Classrooms on Tuesday April 24th from 11 am to noon, in Razran 360.

We invite you to read this useful article, “Compassion Practices in Higher Education” by Mirabai Bush so we can discuss it on April 24. You can download the article at: www.contemplativemind.org/resources/MirabaiBush-Handbookpp77-82.pdf
