Ein Kollektiv von Lehrenden und Studierenden engagiert sich in einer immersiven, produktiven Praxis, um das Lehren und Lernen in der Hochschul- und Grundschulbildung an der Pädagogischen Hochschule und darüber hinaus neu zu denken.

Verwurzelt in Neugier, Fürsorge und Achtsamkeit gegenüber vielfältigen Geschichten und Stimmen, bietet das Kollektiv offene Impulse, die jeder anpassen, hinterfragen oder über eine wachsende Konstellation von Bildungszentren hinweg erweitern kann.

Practice: Walking Meditation



Overview:

A short, embodied practice to slow down, steady attention, and bring gratitude into movement. Useful as an opening ritual or a reset during a long seminar.

How to practice:
  1. Find a quiet, safe path where you can walk slowly for 5–10 minutes.
  2. Start standing still, breathe a few times and sense your feet on the ground.
  3. Walk deliberately, matching steps to breath. Aim for two to three steps while breathing in and three to four steps while breathing out.
  4. Keep attention on each step and each inhale or exhale. If the mind wanders, gently return to the rhythm.
  5. Optionally repeat a short pair of phrases silently as you walk, for example: (in) I arrive, (out) I am present. Use words that feel honest for you.
  6. End by pausing, placing a hand on your heart, and noticing how the body and mind have shifted.

Timing:
5–15 minutes scales easily. Use it as a check-in, a transition, or a group grounding.

Contextual sensitivity:
Practice with humility and consent. Acknowledge that mindful walking has many roots across cultures; invite participants to opt in and to adapt language, posture, or pace for accessibility and cultural comfort. Avoid presenting any single form as universally authoritative.
