Mindfulness (10 days)
Mindfulness is the ability to cultivate direct, open-hearted awareness to what is going on inside and around you in the present moment, without judging or getting carried away by the pressures of everyday life.
Description
The objective of learning the practice of Mindfulness is to provide the necessary tools which you can gradually incorporate naturally into your everyday life, helping you to know yourself better, to live a fuller life, to increase creativity and concentration and to live with a more attentive attitude to your present life.
As teachers, Mindfulness is an outstanding tool to help your students cultivate being present: presence of mind, presence of heart, and presence in the body, qualities that we don’t usually cultivate intentionally. Inner calm and mindfulness are needed in order to improve students' performance and, as teachers or professors, to be able to teach well.
Learning objectives

- Develop their pedagogical and communication skills.
- Process information better, improve students’ attention and concentration, teach them to manage their emotions, reduce anxiety and fatigue, reinforce their self-esteem and social skills, boost empathy and improve their academic skills.
- Learn to process information with a calmer mind, do less multi-tasking so as to actually enjoy living the present moment with a more curious mind.
- Improve the perspectives and development opportunities of each student.
