Essential Resources for Mindfulness Teachers
Essential Resources for Mindfulness Teachers offers the reader a wealth of knowledge about the explicit and implicit aspects of mindfulness-based teaching. The book focuses on how to develop the craft of teaching mindfulness-based courses and is divided into three parts. Part I addresses the explicit elements of mindfulness-based courses, such as how to offer meditation practices and inquiry. Part II investigates the subtle but powerful implicit qualities needed within the teacher to convey the essence of mindfulness. Part III is a series of chapters on the underpinnings, considerations, and theories surrounding the teaching of mindfulness-based courses, and includes a new framework for reflective practice – the Mindfulness-Based Interventions: Teaching and Learning Companion (the TLC). The book is a core companion text for both trainees and established mindfulness-based teachers, and is a resource you will return to again and again.
Achtsamkeit und pädagogische Professionalität in der Lehrer*innenbildung
Achtsamkeit ist als Gesundheitsförderung in Schule und Lehrer*innenbildung angekommen, ihr pädagogisches Potential geht aber weit darüber hinaus. Dieses nimmt Dominik Weghaupt in den Blick und erforscht Achtsamkeit als Übungsform sowie als psychologische Variable in bildungswissenschaftlicher Hinsicht. Er zeigt phänomenologisch die Charakteristika achtsamkeitsbasierter Lehrveranstaltungen auf, analysiert Achtsamkeitsübungen als pädagogische Praxis und diskutiert den personalen Aspekt pädagogischer Professionalität. Ebenfalls Gegenstand der Analyse sind die Prozesse von Selbstregulation und Selbstkenntnis in Verbindung zu Achtsamkeit - wodurch diese als ein moderierender Faktor für gelingendes pädagogisches Handeln hervortritt.

The Development, Conceptualisation and Implementation of Quality in Disability Support Services
Social services for people with disabilities have undergone substantial changes over time, in particular in the past two decades. Whilst lack of affordable and appropriate housing is a barrier to community living for many people with disabilities, it is only one part of the jigsaw. This book traces some of these changes, in particular related to living situation and support available, in a range of different countries and considers the factors that have influenced these changes. This book considers other aspects of what is needed to bring about real change in the lives of all people with disabilities.
Negotiating the Emotional Challenges of Conducting Deeply Personal Research in Health
Public health researchers and clinicians regularly work with people who have suffered physical and mental trauma. Knowing how to conduct a study or treat a patient while navigating deep emotional issues requires special skills and overall awareness of how trauma can impact the process and outcomes of participating in research and/or receiving health care. This book presents a diverse array of case examples from scholars of health-related topics, focusing on biographical narrative as a window into understanding key needs in trauma informed scholarship and medicine. Exploring stories from people of varied backgrounds, experiences, and contexts can help professionals within and beyond the academic research and clinical care spheres create rewarding experiences for patients. Negotiating the Emotional Challenges of Conducting Deeply Personal Research in Health will be of interest to public health practitioners, educators and researchers as well as students.

Infertility can be a lonely journey. One in every six couples will struggle to conceive but, despite this, many don't feel comfortable talking openly about their experiences and sharing what they are going through.
