As educators, we often find ourselves caught in a whirlwind—lesson plans, assessments, student needs, meetings, responsibilities that never seem to pause. Amidst all this, it’s rare to find a moment to simply breathe. But thanks to Dr. Douglas K, we were given not just a moment—but a meaningful experience.
The session on ” Inner Balance & Mindfulness: Focus and Inner Calm for Growing Minds and Self-Realisation” was exactly what we didn’t know we needed. With his calm presence and deep insight, Dr. Douglas led us gently into a space of self-awareness, helping us reconnect with something we so often neglect—ourselves.
It wasn’t just about mindfulness as a technique—it was about understanding the value of inner balance in a world that constantly demands our attention. His words were not lectures; they were quiet nudges toward clarity. His exercises weren’t routines; they were invitations to pause, breathe, and simply be ourselves.
I walked out of that session not only with tools to help my students but with something more valuable—tools to help myself. A clearer mind. A lighter heart. And a gentle reminder that even in the midst of chaos, peace is possible.
Thank you, Dr. Douglas, for a session that felt like a deep exhale after a long day. You reminded us that mindfulness isn’t something extra to add to our to-do lists—it’s a way of living, teaching, and being. Looking forward to more such soulful sessions!
