This book has consolidated a great deal of information related to the conceptual underpinnings of contemplative practice, as well as the practical application of this technology, and it offers a welcome addition to the burgeoning literature on how contemplative practices may be used for the benefit of students and those who work in educational contexts.

--Joshua C. Felver, Syracuse University, Canadian Journal of School Psychology

A complete review of the literature on mindfulness and yoga interventions is provided along with detailed steps on how to implement such programs. Training requirements, classroom set-up, trauma-sensitive practices, and existing quality programs are reviewed. Twelve core principles of mindfulness and yoga in schools are woven throughout for the utmost in continuity. As a whole, the book provides tools for enhancing classroom and school practices as well as personal well-being. It is distinguished by its emphasis on research, translation of research into practice, and insight into potential roadblocks when using mindfulness and yoga in schools.
