About this ebook

This book is about Yau Yan Wong’s experiences as a teacher-researcher in practicing, teaching, and researching mindfulness practice in Thailand over the past 13 years.

It also includes many short mindfulness practices and heuristics for teachers and parents to promote their emotional well-being and that of others in their daily lives.
