A Real Education Experience

Barry Boyce has a definite point, whether you're comfortable with the Buddhist tradition and techniques or not. Meditation is beyond religion, it's a contemplative process that involves looking inside yourself at a current point in time and asking questions like, "Why am I feeling this way? Why am I talking this way? And what can I do to change that?" Questions like these can help anyone decipher their emotions, including children. Although, children most likely aren't in a work stress environment, they might be stressed with schoolwork, relationships, or family problems. Early development of those inside questions ("Why am I feeling this way?") can help kids digest issues outside their own space, and possible help them grow into more empathetic and understanding adults. Education is all about cooperation, and understanding another person's point of few is key to a healthy learning career.
