The concept of Mindfulness is a recently popularised topic in the western society. However it was introduced in the eastern philosophies long time ago including Buddhism, Taoism and Yoga. The basic idea of Mindfulness is to live in this minute and concentrate entirely on what you experience at present. The concept is widely identified among the people as a perfect way to ease your mind, unwind and increase awareness of the self and the outer world. It is also introduced to people who are going through traumatic experiences in life to assist in handling painful thoughts and feelings.
In order to promote the practices of social and emotional learning and mindfulness among the young and old crowds in Thailand and the foreign visitors, Mindfulness and Education Conference is organized in Phuket. The programme is hosted by Thanyapura Phuket and Phuket International Academy along with the experts in the mindfulness in education.
The main purpose of the conference is to offer background knowledge on the field of Mindfulness, training on Mindfulness and the practical methods of introducing Mindfulness in the educational institutions such as schools. Once you attend this conference you are sure to get training with the inspiration and practical tools and manuals for bringing these transformative practices back to your schools to foster calm, compassionate, and creative classrooms.
There are special sessions during the Mindfulness in Education Conference that are designed to suit everyone’s interests. These tailored breakout sessions will be helpful to a variety of interests and curricula, including IB and non-IB teachers. Dan Siegel; Author of The Mindful Brain and Parenting from the Inside Out, will deliver a live online keynote talk and Q&A by VDO conference. Daniel Rechtschaffen will facilitate the conference. Immediately following this conference, Rechtschaffen will lead a Three-Day Intensive Mindfulness in Education Teacher Training.
