  6. MINDFULNESS Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgementally. (JON KABAT-ZINN)

  7. DEEP LISTENING • Involves listening, from a deep, receptive, and caring place in oneself, to deeper and often subtler levels of meaning and intention in the other person. • It is listening that is generous, empathic, supportive, accurate, and trusting. • Trust in this case does not imply agreement, but the trust that whatever others say, regardless of how well or poorly it is said, comes from something true in their experience. • Deep Listening is an ongoing practice of suspending self-oriented, reactive thinking and opening one’s awareness to the unknown and unexpected. http://www.mindful.org/in-love-and-relationships/relating-to-others/deep-listening

  10. The Automatic Pilot • Not being present in the moment – “miles away” • Thoughts, feelings and sensations triggered without awareness can result in unhelpful responses • Awareness gives us greater freedom and choice

  11. PRACTICING MINDFULNESS Will assist you as a tutor/lecturer: • To better understand yourself • To become more self-aware of not only your own feelings and thoughts but how to manage difficult situations that can and do emerge in a classroom or tutorial situation. • Develop the ability to integrate thinking, feeling and behaviour to achieve social tasks and outcomes in the classroom, tutorials or lecture situations.

  12. How Meditation can help in the Classroom/Lecture Theatre/Personal

  13. ‘Visiting Country’ Sitting meditation that will be guided by the facilitator

  14. How can Breathing assist in the Classroom? Stress Response: • Sympathetic nervous system mediates response to perceived danger: • Alarm (perceiving the danger); • (fight/flight cost lot of energy); rest and recovery (lower energy). • Parasympathetic nervous system mediates the Relaxation Response: • Decreasing the heart rate; slowing and deepening the breath; relaxing the muscles. • Becoming more relaxed allows us to think more clearly and have less reactive responses

  15. STOP TECHNIQUE Stop whatever you are doing Take a breath Observe your thoughts/feelings/body Proceed

  16. Activity Participants to practice STOP technique Feedback to group

  17. Self-CareIdentifying Supports for Tutors Group Discussion In groups discuss what supports you think you will need and that can assist you as a tutor to take care of yourself in delivering the Indigenous curriculum.
