Product reviews for The Mindful Teacher's Handbook

This is an easy-to-follow, practical and useful handbook for busy teachers, written by someone who clearly understands both mindfulness and the pressures of the classroom and staffroom. It provides a clear and approachable introduction to mindfulness theory and practice which is enough to help a ‘beginner’ get going and enticing enough to lead on those who take to it (and not all teachers will, of course) into further practice and study. What is particularly novel and helpful is the application of mindfulness practice to the everyday and potentially difficult experiences all teachers will know well, such as transitions, the dreaded inspections and meeting with challenging parents and colleagues.
