SUMMARY:Teaching from the Inside Out: Contemplative Tools for Strengthening Connection\, Purpose\, and Resilience in Higher Education.
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an engaging session featuring Dr. David Vago as part of the WHEN (Wellbeing in Higher Education Network at The Wellbeing Project) Contemplative Pedagogy Group Webinars. \nTeaching from the Inside Out: Contemplative Tools for Strengthening Connection\, Purpose\, and Resilience in Higher Education. \nJoin Dr. David Vago for an interactive session that promises to explore the evolving landscape of contemplative education—its foundations\, challenges\, and promising future for both primary and higher education. In this interactive session\, Dr. Vago will offer a broad overview of some of the pivotal research in contemplative education and how it both intersects with and differentiates from social-emotional learning (SEL). Drawing from his leadership with the International Society for Contemplative Research (ISCR) and its collaborative academic networks—including the Mind and Life Education Research Network\, Flourishing Academic Network and the Contemplative Education Network—he’ll highlight some of the challenges that have attempted to bridge monastic traditions and modern science with contemporary pedagogy. The session will also provide some of the latest research findings from contemplative neuroscience that illustrate key mechanisms for self-transformation through meditation\, yoga\, and breathwork. With a focus on practical tools\, shared reflection\, and an open exchange of ideas\, this session invites us to reimagine higher education as a pathway to deeper connection\, purpose\, and resilience in these uncertain times. We’ll close with key takeaways and a focus on how these ideas can be applied meaningfully in our work and lives. \nLooking forward to seeing you there! \nRegister here:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86171492633?pwd=pwUCNMG3aMRuCVDva8etw8iolpAaOZ.1
