This book provides background, strategies, and tips for higher education faculty and instructors interested in incorporating meditation in their classrooms.

Readers will learn how to develop their own meditation practice as an academic, to set the stage of introducing practice to students, to create ideal conditions for meditation in the classroom, specific, classroom-friendly meditation methods, ways to advance meditation practice with students and keep it interesting, and how to spread the culture of meditation across campus. A detailed script is provided.
