This book was released on 2021 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ABA and most state bar associations have identified a wellness crisis in the legal profession, and called for educating students on how to better cope with the challenges of law school and practice. At the same time, students must learn how to maximize their brain health so that they perform well in law school and on behalf of their clients in practice. The same way musicians would tune their instruments, or chefs would sharpen their knives, law students must sharpen their minds. This book aims to help students "do well" in their ability to learn, and "be well" in the process, by exploring the deep connection between brain health and wellness. Specifically, the book discusses: How to cultivate the ability to deeply focus and deal with the challenges of the 24/7 digital age How stress affects both brain and body How increasing resilience helps deal with challenges and setbacks Why we need exercise for mental, physical, and brain health Why adequate sleep is important and how it can be improved How what we eat affects the brain and one's physical performance Written in a witty, informative, and easy-to-read style, the book is full of suggestions to help students establish healthy and productive habits which will benefit both brain and body. Each chapter ends with a self-reflection exercise to help students take the material and consciously begin implementing its suggestions. This book could be used in orientation programs, academic support and wellness programming, professional development, mindfulness, and other "preparing for practice" courses"--

Download or read book Roll Call written by Bobby Kipper and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2021 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two seasoned law enforcement professionals, Bobby Kipper and Joe St. John, Roll Call is a Christian Spiritual Guide for other law enforcement professionals. Police work is a stressful and often dangerous job that puts a burden on the individual that most people will never understand. It also forces the police officer to see the world in a very real light and that light is not always positive. Kipper and St. John understand the challenges to staying spiritual in an often-harsh world. It is easy to lose focus on a loving and caring God in the midst of turmoil. It is easy to lose hope when a person sees so much hopelessness. Roll Call is as an easy-to-carry book that an officer can read in these troubling times. During a break from all the chaos, the officer can read a quick chapter and refocus on a loving God and the peace of Jesus. Roll Call is a “no-nonsense” book that places the Christian Faith in the forefront of the officers’ lives. In these drastic times of today and with the problems facing law enforcement, there is no better time for the faith community to have a police “Roll Call.”
