Named for Waldorf educator and anthroposophic physician Eugen Kolisko, the Kolisko conferences seek to bring together the pedagogical and therapeutic tools found within Waldorf education. In 2006, for the first time, there were nine such conferences held worldwide. This compilation arose from the 2006 Kolisko conference lectures, spanning topics that include meditation for teachers, projective geometry, children's exposure to technology, how to approach sex education, physiology and its connection to education, and more.
