Book excerpt: These 37 essays are rooted in the inspiration I experience in working with my patients and with participants at the Opening the Heart Workshop. Though they are all very different in tone and content, they are all about love in the small places, off center stage. They may have been about lifting a hosta leaf and findinding a spider's web in diamonds of morning dew, or about watching new grass grow, holding a weeping patient in my office, watching a man outside my office drag his leg behind as he carries groceries home. They are all, I think, small love stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revised and expanded edition of Your Spacious Self. Author and space-clearing expert Stephanie Bennett Vogt invites readers to clear their homes and restore their spirits by releasing the clutter that prevents them from experiencing who they really are. It's a jungle...in here! Behind our stress, clutter, and confusion is an infinitely spacious place one might call stillness or joy. This is our natural state of being, but we usually don't experience it, because we are caught in a web of material possessions, desires, and fears. Our clutter, writes Vogt, a longtime space clearing expert, "becomes like another member of the family that we feed, house, and lug around." She shows us that it's not our stuff, but the holding on to it that creates a force field of "stuck-ness" that clouds our perceptions and paralyzes our lives. Clutter is not just the junk spilling out of the closet. It is any thing or thought that prevents us from experiencing who we truly are. Clearing is not a tedious exercise of throwing away, but a gentle journey of letting go - one small step, drawer, or moment at a time. With all-new nourishing lessons in slowing down, simplifying, and self-care, Your Spacious Self shows you how to clear your home, quiet the mind, and restore your spirit, in ways that feel good and last a lifetime. Included are daily tips and meditations, a weekly worksheet, and guidelines for starting and maintaining a clearing support group--perfect for book groups and support groups. This updated and 10th anniversary edition replaces the previously published edition (9780981877181).

Download or read book Heart Circles written by Tej Steiner and published by I-Media Publishing. This book was released on 2006-02 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heart Circles are small, self-facilitated support groups for people wanting to become more creative, joyful, intuitive, heart-directed and responsive to the uncertain times in which we live. When people sit in circle with each other to explore what they truly want to create in their lives and world, they connect quickly and deeply. A new kind of community can emerge from this connection. The community holds space for individuals to live life directed by what they truly want instead of what they should or shouldn?t do. Those individuals then offer back to the community the vitality and creativity of their passion and clarity of purpose. This strengthens the community which in turn creates an even more nurturing environment for the individuals within it. And on and on it goes. These kinds of self-organized circles are not only joyful and effective, but they also may be crucial in building sustainable communities to take us safely through this period of global transition from competition and fear to cooperation and love.? This life affirming work by Tej Steiner is not only inspirational but it also provides a totally unique and innovative tool that can be actively used to transform our individual lives and our world.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Provocative and illuminating essays from women at the forefront of the climate movement who are harnessing truth, courage, and solutions to lead humanity forward. “A powerful read that fills one with, dare I say . . . hope?”—The New York Times NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY SMITHSONIAN MAGAZINE There is a renaissance blooming in the climate movement: leadership that is more characteristically feminine and more faithfully feminist, rooted in compassion, connection, creativity, and collaboration. While it’s clear that women and girls are vital voices and agents of change for this planet, they are too often missing from the proverbial table. More than a problem of bias, it’s a dynamic that sets us up for failure. To change everything, we need everyone. All We Can Save illuminates the expertise and insights of dozens of diverse women leading on climate in the United States—scientists, journalists, farmers, lawyers, teachers, activists, innovators, wonks, and designers, across generations, geographies, and race—and aims to advance a more representative, nuanced, and solution-oriented public conversation on the climate crisis. These women offer a spectrum of ideas and insights for how we can rapidly, radically reshape society. Intermixing essays with poetry and art, this book is both a balm and a guide for knowing and holding what has been done to the world, while bolstering our resolve never to give up on one another or our collective future. We must summon truth, courage, and solutions to turn away from the brink and toward life-giving possibility. Curated by two climate leaders, the book is a collection and celebration of visionaries who are leading us on a path toward all we can save.

Download or read book Lean In written by Sheryl Sandberg and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2013-03-11 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • “A landmark manifesto" (The New York Times) that's a revelatory, inspiring call to action and a blueprint for individual growth that will empower women around the world to achieve their full potential. In her famed TED talk, Sheryl Sandberg described how women unintentionally hold themselves back in their careers. Her talk, which has been viewed more than eleven million times, encouraged women to “sit at the table,” seek challenges, take risks, and pursue their goals with gusto. Lean In continues that conversation, combining personal anecdotes, hard data, and compelling research to change the conversation from what women can’t do to what they can. Sandberg, COO of Meta (previously called Facebook) from 2008-2022, provides practical advice on negotiation techniques, mentorship, and building a satisfying career. She describes specific steps women can take to combine professional achievement with personal fulfillment, and demonstrates how men can benefit by supporting women both in the workplace and at home.
Download or read book Using the Circle Technique to Build Classroom Relationships written by Rufus Lott III and published by National Professional Resources Inc. This book was released on 2023-05-01 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building and sustaining strong teacher-student relationships is key to students feeling connected to school, which is directly related to their overall success. Research collected by the National Center on Safe Supportive Learning Environments shows that students who feel connected have better school attendance, grades, test scores, and stay in school longer. Furthermore, when students have strong relationships with their teachers, their engagement, motivation, and emotional well-being improve. Put simply, optimal outcomes for students cannot occur without the foundation of meaningful relationships. It is therefore crucial for teachers to know how to build effective, long-lasting, and authentic relationships with students. This guide describes The Circle technique, a powerful and systematic way of engaging with students and building authentic relationships with and among them. It includes step-by-step instructions for conducting various types of Circles, sample questions to use with students in grades K-12, guidance on what to look for during Circles, and How to use information shared in the Circle to develop individualized supports for students.
