1 review for Christ Centred Mindfulness

  1. Tim Argall

    The strong affirmation of educators in the Christian schooling world, and the expressed desire to take the material of her book Christ Centred Mindfulness and use it as the basis for a series of focused studies for youth and young adults has given rise to this sought-after resource.
    As the Principal of such a school, I see enormous potential for this booklet to be used extensively as part of our preparation of our students to meet ever more complex secular environments as they look to tertiary studies and their future work places. I unreservedly commend it to all with a deep pastoral care for young people.
