The activities are fun, engaging and are appropriate for both traditional and online lessons. In order for this book to be beneficial to you at its best, I have included a few personal stories as well as links to other resources which could be used as follow-up exercises.

I have decided to share five of my students’ favourite mindful lesson plans. “101 activities to teach English mindfully” is dedicated to all my students who showed me their vulnerability, anxiety and emotional pain. I’m truly grateful to them for allowing me to use my meditations, visualisations and other mindful techniques in our lessons.
