description | This article describes a course on mindfulness and social work in an Israeli college. During the course, the students dealt with the unpredictable reality of the COVID-19 crisis. As they studied and practiced mindfulness, they experienced new life circumstances, as a living lab, creating a direct encounter with the course concepts. Practicing meditation became particularly significant for them given their coping with the crisis. One of the course requirements was writing a journal. Analysis of the journals suggested a three-stage learning process: (a) ambivalence toward the course, (b) the magic of mindfulness, and (c) reflection and selection. The findings indicate that the students experienced the course as helping them deal with the COVID-19 challenges on personal, professional, and academic levels. |
