Mindfulness practice cultivates "‘... a quality of self-focused attention characterized by openness & acceptance of experience that is not articulated in the descriptions of ... other constructs involving self-observation’. This quality of attention could potentially assist learning in social work education.
... in order to equally value the sensory & bodily experience with conceptual knowledge, greater emphasis needs to be given to the phenomenology of experience, and to ‘... the reunion of our mind with our body, emotions, & spirit in teaching & learning’. ... (considered) essential to integrating ‘what one learns & knows with how one acts’."
