  Teachers, this book is a guide for taking care of education's most valuable resource: you. Author Jay Schroder, founder of the popular Teach from Your Best Self Institute, demonstrates why the version of ourselves that we bring to teaching matters and describes how we can rejuvenate ourselves while maximizing student learning. Part I explains why the self that a teacher brings to the classroom is important. Part II explores skills that will help us sustain a best-self state in all manner of situations. Part III delves into those moments when we're provoked beyond our limits and our "hurtspots" come sharply into view. It offers ways to avert a reactive state or recover from it. Lastly, Part IV provides simple approaches for building a more durable, best self for the long term—a best self with deepened capacity to respond rather than react in the pressurized conditions of teaching. With fresh ideas presented throughout, you'll learn how to prioritize your own well-being so you can continue to make a difference for your students.

  Did you know that the biggest territorial expansion in ancient Rome took place during the reign of its first emperor, who also ruled the longest out of all of the rulers prior to the fall of the Western Roman Empire? 
  The Roman Empire reached its zenith within the first two centuries of the fall of the Roman Republic, expanding its territory and spreading its influence well beyond the borders of Europe. During that time, a sort of global peace was achieved, which historians call the Pax Romana. But what exactly is the Pax Romana, and how does one delve into this huge, ever-expanding subject? 
  Like many other segments of Roman history, the Pax Romana is riddled with murky areas, contradictory information from contemporary sources, and fascinating archaeological finds. In this book, you’ll discover what made Rome tick during those roughly two hundred years of relative peace. 
  Throughout the pages of this tome, you’ll get brief glimpses of the reigns of many emperors who made the Pax Romana into what it was. Discover the Pax Romana’s long-term effects and how it managed to cement the Roman Empire as the go-to empire for many later civilizations to try and emulate. 
  Among other things, you’ll gain new knowledge on the following facts:How the empire evolved from the former republic and who the men were that brought about the changes What made the reign of each emperor uniqueWho the best emperors during the Pax Romana were, and which ones were considered the worstWhat role the provinces and territorial expansion played in the growth and development of the empireHow the imperial Romans were stratifiedWhat societal changes came about with the abolition of the republic and the return to a monarchic model

  Cognitive health is often overlooked until it begins to decline. In a world that is rapidly changing, we can easily forget how fragile our brains truly are. From the way we process information to our ability to recall memories, brain health affects every part of our daily lives. Yet, many of us unknowingly engage in habits that can damage our cognitive function over time. These seemingly harmless behaviors can lead to a range of mental health problems, including memory loss, mental fog, and even conditions like dementia. The good news is that by understanding how certain habits affect the brain, we can take steps to protect and improve our cognitive health. 
    
  The human brain is one of the most complex organs in the body. It is responsible for our thoughts, emotions, movements, and even the way we perceive the world around us. Despite its remarkable abilities, the brain is vulnerable to both internal and external factors that can have lasting consequences on its function. The habits we form daily play a crucial role in determining how well our brain performs. Even if we don’t feel immediate effects, bad habits can accumulate over time, leading to irreversible damage. 
    
  In this book, we explore twelve common habits that can harm cognitive health. These behaviors might seem harmless or even routine, but their impact on the brain can be far-reaching. From lack of sleep and chronic stress to poor dietary choices and sedentary living, many of these habits are all too familiar. However, understanding how these habits affect the brain is the first step in taking control of our mental health. Once we recognize the problem, we can implement strategies to protect our brain from further harm.
