Teaching from the Heart of Mindfulness approaches life as a laboratory for practicing mindfulness as a way of being―from the heart, in presence and as a teacher. When this is magnified for teachers it becomes a mindfulness-based teaching approach. This approach is exemplified in ten real-life classroom vignettes through the lens of a Mindful Teacher Lesson Design. This practical design can be adapted to any subject, curriculum or school setting.

 

Each chapter begins with a mindfulness practice because, above all, mindfulness is heart-centered and Teaching from the Heart of Mindfulness invites teachers into its warm-hearted nature. In the West wisdom is thought to rest in the mind, which is considered to be in the head. While in India, where the author has lived many years, the seat of wisdom is considered to be in the heart rather than the head. In Sanskrit, the word describing the energy of the heart is anahata―literally, “unstuck.” For at the very heart of our lives, including typical teaching days, beyond limiting thoughts and emotions, there is an inner dwelling of the heart. It brings with it a feeling of expansion that is always unstuck, always whole. The practice of mindfulness cultivates this unfolding process. By teaching from the heart of mindfulness, teachers―and, by direct consequence, their students―are welcomed into this spaciousness of heart. In touching our student’s lives from this warm-hearted core of who we are, we become true peacemakers.

A book for every educator By Maid in Vermont Teaching from the Heart of Mindfulness addresses a need in the literature on Mindfulness in Education in two ways: it focuses on the internal world and perceptions of the educator and it focuses on the intention of the educator to re-frame her perception in light of uplifting qualities of heart and mind. Through lived personal examples in classrooms around the world, Dr. Lauren Alderfer offers us a window into the ways in which the intention for goodness and compassion ripples out to individual students and to a whole classroom in order to bring about healing and transformation in the midst of the classroom. This is a great book for all teachers who aspire to greater mindfulness in their teaching practice and in their classrooms. The jewels of wisdom in this book are a source of great inspiration!

A Rich Read for Any Teacher By alvino e. fantini As an educator, I have always kept Kahlil Gibran’s quote close to my heart: “No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.” Alderfer’s work helps to put this quote into practice by offering a variety of ways for educators to enrich themselves while attempting to do the same for students. Alderfer draws her inspiration from a wide variety of educational experiences -- at different levels, in various institutions, and across cultures -- they provide insights and practices that are universally applicable….a rich read for any teacher anywhere. Alvino E. Fantini, PhD, SIT Graduate Institute
