A Scoping Review of Mindfulness-Based and Arts-Based Parenting Interventions for Adolescent Mothers
Exploring the Benefits of an Arts-Based Mindfulness Group Intervention for Youth Experiencing Challenges in Schooling
Research exploring the benefits of Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBIs) with youth is emerging and promising for the improvement of resiliencies. We developed an arts-based mindfulness intervention to make learning mindfulness accessible for children who had experienced trauma. Arts-based methods are engaging, enjoyable, and developmentally relevant. Previously, we found benefits of participating in this MBI for children aged 8 to 12 years. Her…
A Scoping Review of Arts-Based Mindfulness Interventions for Children and Youth
Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBIs) hold promise for building resilience in children/youth. We were interested in understanding why some MBIs incorporate arts-based methods, and what key findings were identified from the study of these MBIs. We used a scoping review to address our research questions. Scoping reviews can help us better understand how different types of evidence can inform practice, policy, and research. Steps include identifyin…

Yet, these methods are rarely used in sport research. The purpose of the current p…

This paper briefly describes some of these group methods that have been found to be feasible, suitable, and beneficial for children and youth living in foster care for developing aspects of their resilience. Qualitative analysis is presented and illustrates how the young people made sense of spirituality and discussed spiritually…

Christian fundamentalist religious beliefs, expressed by social work students, present a challenge to the social work educator. In this paper we explore the tensions between Fundamentalism, diverse sexual orientation and gender expression and social work pedagogy. Particularly, we focus on how an anti-oppressive pedagogical approach, while important to providing educational equality for students with diverse gender expressions and sexual orientat…

This paper discusses some results of a qualitative study that explored both student and educator viewpoints regarding the inclusion of spirituality in social work pedagogy. A grounded theory research methodology was used to analyze data obtained from semi-structured individual interviews completed with eighteen participants-eight educators and ten students. Data analysis uncovered the following pedagogical issues: delineating between spirituality…
Incorporating Spirituality in Feminist Social Work Perspectives
This article describes a qualitative study of 20 feminist social workers’ conceptualizations of spirituality and spiritually influenced practices. A grounded-theory analysis of the interviews uncovered major convergences among the participants’ values and practices, which encouraged the development of a set of practice principles. One such practice principle, which encompasses the commonalities between feminist social work and spiritual values an…
