Mindfulness and Meditation

Action Plan

I will schedule mindfulness and/or meditation classes, and talk to the guide about how those practices fit into the culture of Vietnam and Cambodia.

Pre-Departure Preparation

I teach about mindfulness and meditation, and would like to learn more about how those things are practiced in Vietnam and Cambodia, tying in religious elements from Buddhism, and bring that into the classroom. I also help children learn about and appreciate other cultures through stories and pictures. Finally, I work with older students on social action projects, and would like to learn more about the ways that G Adventures partners with agencies in-country to help children in need.

Preparation During Travel

Reading and researching the culture of Vietnam and Cambodia.
