Mindful Teacher's Handbook - How to step out of busyness and find peace

Kamalagita Hughes

Sinossi

Written by Kamalagita Hughes, The Mindful Teacher's Handbook: How to step out of busyness and find peace is a practical guide to mindfulness that will empower teachers and school staff to take better care of their well-being and find calm in the day-to-day hustle and bustle of the school setting.
When we're on an aeroplane, the on-board safety instructions tell us that in the event of an emergency we should put on our own oxygen mask first - and only then help those around us. The same is true for well-being: we need to look after ourselves in order to be a resource for others. This is especially the case in busy, high-pressure environments such as our classrooms and schools, where burnout is a real concern for teachers and leaders, who all too often relegate their own self-care to the bottom of the to-do list.
The Mindful Teacher's Handbook is a practical and engaging resource to help everyone in schools bring mindfulness into their lives in a meaningful way. Mindfulness practice offers simple, straightforward strategies for finding peace and regaining perspective, and has a solid body of evidence that attests to its efficacy. In this book, Kamalagita Hughes provides a lively and engaging blend of top tips, research evidence, case studies, guided meditations and suggested exercises for all - both for those new to mindfulness and for those who want to refresh their practice.
Providing a thorough, grounded understanding of mindfulness and its benefits for the school community, the book explores the links between well-being and education and sets out how improved staff and student well-being can cultivate a better teaching and learning environment for all. Kamalagita offers practical strategies that school staff can put into practice straight away - both for their own well-being and that of their pupils - including insightful case studies on how best to bring mindfulness to your school.
Suitable for teachers, teaching assistants and school leaders.

Veerni - A Journey of Female...

Jacqueline de Chollet

The young woman was weaving a shawl. Jacqueline offered to purchase this square of colourful fabric, a few coins jingled on the table. A man immediately appeared and took the money.
In 1993 Jacqueline de Chollet founded The Veerni Project (Veer Ni, 'the brave woman' in Hindi) which strives to uplift women and girls, to break the cycle of poverty and gender inequality, and provide them with essential skills and knowledge through the establishment of a program to attend good secondary schools – universal secondary education being a sustainable goal of the United Nations – as well as training centres and healthcare facilities.
Secondary schooling is often unavailable in many rural settings particularly in the desert area of Rajasthan. By fostering self reliance and promoting women's rights through education, this uplifting story sheds a light on how such endeavours aim to create a sustainable impact on the lives of women, fostering a brighter future for generations to come so that women's voices can be heard in their communities and their countries.
This cultural and sociological adventure takes on a global dimension on the role of women, their struggles, their future and their hopes. These brave women will make the world a better place for all.

Niccolò Machiavelli - The Prince...

Hector Davidson

Niccolò Machiavelli, the Renaissance political thinker and diplomat, remains one of the most influential figures in political philosophy, and his ideas continue to shape modern discussions on leadership, power, and governance. His most famous work, The Prince, has long been recognized as a manual for rulers navigating the complexities of political life, emphasizing pragmatic strategies over idealistic visions of statecraft. In the centuries since its publication, Machiavelli’s work has both captivated and provoked scholars, politicians, and leaders, and his theories remain as relevant today as when they were first written.
At the heart of Machiavelli's philosophy is his focus on the practical realities of political power. Unlike many political theorists who are concerned with how politics should be ideally structured, Machiavelli emphasized how politics actually works. The Prince offers rulers advice on how to secure and maintain power, often advocating methods that defy traditional moral or ethical considerations. His famous assertion that “the ends justify the means” has become synonymous with political maneuvering that prioritizes results over values, positioning him as both a realist and a controversial figure in political thought.
Machiavelli’s impact extends beyond just the realm of politics. His ideas on leadership, human nature, and the strategic use of power have influenced not only political theory but also military strategy, business practices, and even popular culture. His work on statecraft speaks to a deep understanding of human behavior, and his insights into the manipulation of public perception, the nature of fear and loyalty, and the balancing of power dynamics have resonated across various disciplines. Whether used to guide national leadership or inform business strategy, Machiavellian principles are often invoked when discussing tactics for navigating complex, power-driven environments.
