About the Book

This book focuses both on how educators can cultivate compassion within themselves and lead together to cultivate humanizing school environments. Teachers, librarians, counselors, resource specialists, mental health professionals, and social workers who are working to create conditions for compassion and dignity in schools are all leaders who can impact change. Offering concrete evidence and case studies that showcase the power of compassion to create flourishing school communities and rejuvenate education, the book will help all educators better serve K-12 students with school cultures that promote healing. ● Experiment and engage in meditation practices to strengthen personal capacity for mindfulness and compassion ● Engage in hands-on writing exercises and self-reflection questions educators can ask themselves and then apply their personal growth to influence school policies and climate ● Gain perspective on compassion in schools through a multidisciplinary lens drawing from contemplative practices, psychology, and organizational change theory Creating Compassionate Change in School Communities offers a valuable approach to integrating wellness into schools.

About the Author :
Ashley Seidel Potvin, PhD, is a research associate in the Renée Crown Wellness Institute at the University of Colorado Boulder. William R. Penuel, PhD, is a distinguished professor in the School of Education at the University of Colorado Boulder. Sona Dimidjian, PhD, is director of the Renée Crown Wellness Institute and professor in the Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Colorado Boulder. Thupten Jinpa, PhD, is the founder and chairman of Compassion Institute and the principal author of Compassion Cultivation Training(TM). Thupten Jinpa holds a PhD from Cambridge University and has been the principal English translator to the Dalai Lama for nearly thirty years. He is an adjunct professor at the Faculty of Religious Studies at McGill University and chairman of the Mind and Life Institute, which is dedicated to promoting dialogues and collaborations between the sciences and contemplative knowledge, especially Buddhism. He lives in Montreal with his wife and daughters. A curious mix of fright-night chiller and Edwardian romp, P. J. Morgan is equally at home narrating dark thrillers and lighthearted romantic escapades. They live with their two horses and assorted house pets in Rural Lite (TM) Oregon, alternately enjoying the solitude and craving the connection of story. Narrating keeps them sane in the darkness. As a nonbinary queer storyteller, P. J. certainly knows the value of subtext and how to read between the lines for deeper meaning. The quest for meaningful representation has consumed them for the better part of three decades. P. J. has narrated over 150 titles to date for Penguin Random House, Hachette, Brilliance Audio, Audible Studios, BeeAudio, Pink Flamingo Productions, Findaway Voices, Spoken Realms, Audibly Addicted, Read Me Romance, and many independent authors. They were nominated for a Sultry Listeners Award in 2023 in the contemporary romance category. They have a background in theater, musical ensemble, and opera; several TV and film credits; and a degree in linguistics with emphases on phonetics and the French language. When not in the booth acting as a spiritual medium for the characters that possess them, P. J. spends as much time as possible outside. When the weather renders that unpleasant, they can often be found obsessively rewatching favorite shows (especially Our Flag Means Death, Severance, Killing Eve, and Hannibal), researching their Welsh and Irish heritage, learning to speak Thai, starting new craft projects, or world-building within their sci-fi trilogy WIP.

Review :
"Education has changed drastically in the past five years. This book humanizes the difficulty of the changes and provides tangible steps educators can take to support their students and the people many often overlook, themselves." -- "Autumn Rivera, 2022 Colorado Teacher of the Year and finalist for the 2022 National Teacher of the Year"
