\ Overview

The course teaches students comprehensive and specialised subjects informed by the empathetic analysis of contemporary scenarios by leaders and educators with enhancement of abilities to foster healing and social change in their fraternities and classrooms. As such, the course responds to the challenges of a diverse global community by delving deep into mindfulness, social-emotional learning and yoga as apt mechanisms of social healing and transformation.

The course is a novel and timely endeavour to empower students to enrich their pedagogical approaches, cultivate a deeper understanding of personal wellness practices, broaden their repertoire in yoga instruction, and enhance their ability to focus on transformations in the domains of education and leadership. This experiential program will inspire and facilitate an ambience that will promote positive behaviours, elevate student performance, and enrich the well-being of the entire sorority. Throughout the duration of the course, students will develop expertise in methods and pedagogical frameworks that will equip them to teach and lead in a manner that is trauma-informed, equitable and accessible. Consequently, students will develop a comprehensive understanding of the transformations that will utilise their proficiency as a healing-centred community builder.
