Mindfulness is beyond optional, it's imperative in today's society, be it the culture of business, learning, or personal life. By illuminating ways to apply the intentional use of attention to our active daily lives, Mindful by Design is a guide to well-being, a practical resource, and a creative call-to-action, as Caitlin Krause helps readers to bridge the gap between prioritizing true connection and achieving it. -- Leah Weiss, author of How We Work: Live Your Purpose, Reclaim Your Sanity, and Embrace the Daily Grind; Lecturer, Stanford Graduate School of Business What might make a student more thoughtful about their own thinking, more engaged with the world, and more appreciative of the opportunities to learn from peers? This book offers clear tools and activities to foster mindfulness in the classroom so that students can think for themselves, learn from each other, and teachers can learn from all their students. -- Luz Santana and Dan Rothstein, co-authors, Make Just One Change: Teach Students to Ask Their Own Questions Part meditation, impassioned credo and exhortation, and part practical guide addressed to educators at all levels, Krause's book is urgent and provocative: not only in calling for us to create curricula and classrooms that meet the needs of the Gen Z world and beyond, but in encouraging our personal creativity, in offering sample exercises and resources, and in inviting ongoing collaboration through a companion website. Entering the Krause classroom as fellow teachers, we're engaged as fellow learners and inspired to `wonder.' -- DeWitt Henry, author of Sweet Marjoram: Notes and Essays; Founding Editor of Ploughshares Mindfulness is key to effective learning, whether it's a classroom of students or a workplace full of adult learners. Caitlin Krause shares valuable strategies that will help any educator, coach, manager, or learning professional bring out the best in those they serve. -- Dorie Clark, Adjunct Professor at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business; author of Entrepreneurial You and Stand Out In a world that seems more turbulent, more distraction-filled by the day, students and teachers need the restorative power of breathing and mindfulness as never before. Caitlin Krause's Mindful by Design is a valuable and inspiring guide, offering generous insights and practical advice for those seeking to center, strengthen, and clarify their efforts both in and outside of the classroom. -- Dinty W.
