Working with the Emotions of Our Colleagues

Teacher and administrator Meena Srinivasan, an experienced Plum Village practitioner, helps school leaders work with their strong emotions, which she feels has been “transformative” in engendering greater self-compassion and resilience.

In our work with school leaders, a major focus has been around strengthening one’s own inner resources and cultivating resilience to more skillfully navigate the challenges that come with leading a school in a district that has great inequities. Specifically, teaching leaders how to work with strong emotions has been transformative. Through sharing Thay’s teachings on how we are both the crying baby and the mother that can soothe the baby, and how we all have the capacity to embrace ourselves with love and friendliness, many leaders have begun to practice self-compassion throughout the school day.
