LINKEDIN FOR BEGINNERS

(MAY 20, 2024)

Mindfulness is about being fully awake in our lives. It is about perceiving the exquisite vividness of each moment.

-Jon Kabat-Zinn

Mindfulness allows us to take a step back, reflect, and engage with our professional lives meaningfully and effectively. It is the foundation of professional growth, helps us to focus, innovate, and lead with empathy. To enhance the professional and personal growth opportunities for teachers, a workshop on Linkedin, led by Ms Shella Chauhan, was conducted on May 20, 2024.

The session started by expressing gratitude towards the teaching fraternity through ‘Guru Vandana.’ The workshop aimed at creating a professional profile and building strong networks. For professional growth, the teachers were introduced to ‘Linkedin’ which acts as a network to connect with colleagues and educators worldwide, sharing experiences and best practices. By following educational organizations and thoughtful leaders, teachers can stay informed about the latest trends and developments in education.

Later during the session, the staff members were introduced to the apps from the Vedic Sadhana Foundation ‘Black Lotus’ and ‘Sadhana’, for personal and spiritual growth. The teachers were also enlightened through a video glimpse of Om Shanti (Founder of Black Lotus) who talked about the impact of meditation by highlighting that just like our body, our brain also needs care and attention. The session was both productive and enlightening.
