It is about the teacher/student relationship ... and how sometimes these roles get reversed. Join Eduardo on his journey, as he deals with the best and worst of administrators and the most centered and most troubled of students, to discover if he even wants to be a teacher and, if so, how to become a better one.

Download or read book Dare to Feel written by Alexandra Roxo and published by Sounds True. This book was released on 2024-01-16 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore the language of feeling as a spiritual practice, reclaim your full self, and expand in ways you haven’t known before. “Most of us weren’t taught how to feel. In fact, we were taught not to feel,” says Alexandra Roxo. Though we have been taught to deny, repress, and lock away our feelings to get by in our emotionally illiterate culture, our bodies and hearts long to be open and free. With Dare to Feel, Alexandra shares a powerful resource for reclaiming the lost parts of yourself and rediscovering the full richness of your human experience in all its breathless passion, tender vulnerability, and boundless love. Dare to Feel is a guide on the “transformational path of the heart,” a spiritual practice for connecting more deeply with yourself, others, and the world by accessing the power of your emotions, sensations, and intuition. Through personal stories, poems, rituals, and reflective exercises, Alexandra invites you to explore: • Why we’ve learned not to feel—the social and internal reasons we retreat from emotions • Courage and curiosity—guidance for navigating intense feelings in a safe and loving way • The body’s wisdom—how to awaken your heart’s capabilities through somatic exercises • The openhearted way—daily practices and steps for becoming more open, joyous, and present to your miraculous life It takes courage to shed our armor—to stop checking out, overthinking, grabbing for phones, or running for the door. Yet the effort is worth it. “It is when you dare to feel, even when it hurts, that you open the heart and soul,” says Alexandra. “You become the sculptor of your reality and free yourself to experience all your life can be.”
