Recenzii

"This is a book about mindfulness that could make a real difference to the way in which teachers and students experience life in the classroom. "
- Leslie J Francis, Professor of Religions and Education, University of Warwick
"I totally endorse and support inspiration for children about which Billie writes, which is so needed in this world with so many machines that children are attracted to."
- Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa, teacher of Kundalini Yoga and a pioneer in the field of pre-natal yoga
"This book is a treasure box of ideas about the person, about education, and it generously shares with us dozens of meditation exercises that can help us and our children learn about ourselves and develop the empathy our world so desperately needs."
- Karem Roitman, lecturer, international development consultant and Director of Thinkers Meet Up
"This magnificent teachers handbook that instructs young people how to "BE" rather than how to "DO" is revolutionary to the educational system."
- Elizabeth B. Jenkins, writer, spiritual teacher and author of ‘Return of the Inka’
