We live in a world that has been upended by the COVID-19 pandemic. Students around the globe have been besieged by disruptions that threaten not only their academic learning but also their mental, emotional, and interpersonal well-being. In the midst of pressing and mounting challenges, how can schools ensure the total wellness of all their students? Beyond reactive, piecemeal, and short-term measures, how can schools enact mindful education that pays attention to wholeness in every student? Extending the current research on well-being and mindfulness, this book draws insights from Confucian and Christian traditions. These two traditions have been selected as they are widely seen to represent, and have impacted, Eastern and Western civilisations respectively for millennia. Informed and inspired by Confucian and Christian perspectives, this book proposes that mindfulness is an orientation towards wholeness, where one experiences he (harmony) and shalom (peace). Mindful education is realised through: A school community of ren (humanity) and agape (love); A transforming curriculum that centres on dao (way) and imago dei (god?s image); Empathic teachers who are motivated by shu (putting oneself in the other?s place) and the Golden Rule (do to others as you would have them do to you); and Self-directed learners who develop themselves through xiuji (self-cultivation) and spiritual disciplines. Applying ancient wisdom to contemporary settings, this book on promoting student well-being through mindful education is a useful resource for policymakers, educators, researchers, and general readers. . 410 0$aEncounters between East and West, Intercultural Perspectives,$x2364-673X 606 $aEducation$xPhilosophy 606 $aTeaching 606 $aInternational education 606 $aComparative education 606 $aReligion and culture 606 $aEducational Philosophy 606 $aPedagogy 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education 606 $aCross-cultural Studies 615 0$aEducation$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aTeaching. 615 0$aInternational education. 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aReligion and culture. 615 14$aEducational Philosophy. 615 24$aPedagogy. 615 24$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aCross-cultural Studies. 676 $a370.15 700 $aTan$b Charlene$0955421 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910488706803321 996 $aMindful Education$92161910 997 $aUNINA
