This book combines perspectives from psychology, spiritual
education and digital teaching pedagogies in a transnational
framework to discuss the Education in Human Values Program (EHV)
for child development, with a focus on silent sitting, mindfulness,
meditation and story-telling as tools in the classroom. Through
positive guidance in the early stages of child development using
EHV tools, teachers will be better equipped to handle disciplinary
issues in primary and secondary schools. These practices are also
useful for the higher education community, as teachers and
educators from tertiary institutions may adopt these practices in
their teaching and become reflective practitioners. Topics such as
teacher morale and school climate and its impact on children are
discussed in relation to building resilience, reflective
capacities, and inner strength (shared values) using an intrinsic
and transformational approach. The discussions also include
perspectives from the neurosciences. With contributions from
teachers and educators from the US, South Africa, Malaysia,
Australia, Hong Kong and Mauritius, this edited volume addresses
the challenges, strengths and weaknesses associated with daily
teaching practices in primary and secondary schools and higher
education institutions. The content is relevant to policymakers and
researchers in child development studies, with a particular focus
on the impact of silent sitting, mindful practices, and meditation
on children's self-regulation and resilience. The authors
collectively espouse that silent sitting techniques can help a
child to grow and discover their hidden potential, thus enhancing
their social, emotional, spiritual and physical capacities.
