This book focuses on the way academics understand, embrace and
enact the concepts of mindfulness in approaching their work in
demanding and dynamic contemporary higher education environments.
It examines how they implement formal and informal mindfulness
practices that increase the capacity to transform mind and body
states by drawing on concepts such as compassion, kindness,
gratitude, curiosity, self-awareness and non-judgemental stances.
The book provides insights into and highlights the struggles of
scholars through their experiences and perspectives in relation to
their identities, practices and job enactment. Each chapter author
explains their mindfulness practices and their motivations for
implementing them, and explores how mindful ways of researching,
writing, learning and teaching, leading, and engaging with others
leads us to self-awareness and engagement in the present.
