Drawing on extensive doctoral 91自拍 and professional practice, this lecture invites participants into an exploration of how practitioners and scholars have deliberately integrated the notion of healing into K-12 curricula and professional education. The evolution of restorative justice, social-emotional learning, mindfulness, and trauma-informed teaching reveals a kind of momentum that situates the emergence of the restorative and healing-centered paradigm in educational discourse, practice and 91自拍. With the many challenges and crises unfolding before us鈥揺cological disequilibrium, political polarization, socio-economic inequality and health disparities鈥損eople who are interested in educating others are challenged with how to take care of themselves, those who they teach and the communities within which they work. Also, the COVID-19 global pandemic has exacerbated the preexisting conditions that communities, especially those who are most vulnerable, have to contend with. This lecture provides a foundation for thinking, 91自拍ing and integrating healing-centered education into one鈥檚 professional teaching philosophy and practice.
