Chronic stress and trauma can have devastating effects on children’s development, making it very difficult for them to function well at school. In this new book the author of Mindfulness for Teachers shares classroom-tested, compassionate teaching practices that support students’ healing, build their resilience and create safe places for them to learn.
Patricia (Tish) Jennings, PhD, is an internationally recognized leader in the fields of social and emotional learning (SEL), mindfulness in education, and teacher well-being. A Professor of Education at the University of Virginia’s School of Education and Human Development, her research focuses on promoting well-being in K-12 learning environments. Her work has been recognized by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for supporting school mental health and by the Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL) for supporting adult SEL.
