In challenging times, it is very easy for educators to be distracted from what we value most in our work. In this episode, Roberta Schnorr joins us to discuss how mindfulness practice can help us bring our authentic selves to our classrooms.
Roberta was, until her retirement, one of our colleagues at SUNY Oswego. Her professional career spanned 40 years, including nearly a decade in public schools, over 25 years directing a graduate program in SUNY Oswego’s School of Education, and she has been a mindfulness practitioner for 20 years. She has taught and facilitated mindfulness in community settings, including a prison and a public library.

Bobbi did an amazing job of helping the audience understand about attention and intention. I know mindfulness, and the interviewers, John and Rebecca, asked all the right questions to help the audience understand how to connect to inside mindful teaching. I heard vunerability in Bobbi, but as she said, an authenticity that comes with time and confidence. Thank you for this, as you say, offering. Nice work to all. This podcast is a great way for anyone to begin investigating mindfulness.
