Seeds of contemplative practices and pedagogies
Intentional pause: Settling in
We would now like to invite you to take a break from your reading. These intentional pause points have been placed throughout the OER, at the end of each section, to create time and space for you to check in with yourself.
Take a moment to…
- Drink some water
- Take a deep breath (or a few!)
- Shift your attention from the screen to a point on the wall or floor, or an object, or simply close your eyes for a few minutes.
Try out a contemplative practice
To conclude the first section on the seeds of contemplative pedagogy, here are some practices focused on orienting yourself to a new space or new material.
