Bringing Heart and Mind into Storytime
Author: Heather McNeil
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1440877181
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
Learn how to use children's books during storytime to approach sensitive topics and increase children's social-emotional wellness-and how to create storytimes that are engaging, participative, and FUN! The emotional challenges many children experience consume the time of teachers, exhaust parents, and sometimes lead children toward behaviors that prohibit social and academic success. Storytime to the rescue! Library storytimes prepare children for kindergarten; storytimes at home and in preschools allow teachers, parents, and children to think and talk about empathy and the importance of honoring your own and others' feelings. In Bringing Heart and Mind into Storytime, Heather McNeil teaches librarians and teachers how to use books to open conversations with children to teach such concepts as patience, tenacity, kindness, and teamwork. McNeil shares research on brain development, social-emotional learning, and the importance of play, but she also emphasizes maintaining the fun of storytime. She recommends songs, action rhymes, games, and crafts that contribute to fun and healthy storytimes. Extensive lists of recommended books will help readers find the right ones for their audience.

Readers will love to follow Bentley and try the poses themselves as he gets buzzing all about yoga in this kid-friendly introduction. Bentley Bee loves to fly around and visit his friends in the garden. One day, he notices all of them in unusual poses. What could it bee? Bentley’s friends teach him several beginning yoga poses including Mountain, Chair, Airplane, Cobra, and more.

Excerpt: Exploring yoga with your child is a wonderful way to connect and exercise together.

In our fast-paced, busy lives, we don’t always realize how our go, go, go lifestyle hinders our general health and hurts our most precious relationships. We tend to survive in a stressed mode of being, just to keep up with the pace. Unfortunately, this is what we end up modeling for our children. It is no wonder that we have rising rates of anxiety and chronic stress amongst even our youngest children.

Heartful Business
Author: Lorraine Flower
Publisher: Austin Macauley Publishers
ISBN: 1398487260
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Heartful Business: Leading with the World in Mind is a provocation to everyone who’s a leader – to step up and join the battle to create a better world for all. And a battle it is. Governments and their leaders throw resources at problems for which they don’t have solutions, problems that keep growing and shapeshifting. The pressing need for a new leadership operating system for the world to survive, let alone thrive, is clear. We must solve the monumental problems facing our planet and humanity, for future generations to thrive. To do so will need a shift in how leaders lead as massive as the one we’re facing in our climate. The future isn’t just down to politicians. The challenge is too big. BUSINESS CAN LEAD THE WAY - by fundamentally committing to help create a better world for all. A handful of leaders get this but not enough. The thing is business leaders are ill-equipped to do what’s needed. WHAT’S NEEDED IS CONSCIOUS LEADERSHIP AND PRACTICAL ACTIONS THAT SET A ‘GREATER GOOD’ AT THE HEART OF THE ORGANISATION’S PURPOSE, VISION, CULTURE AND DAY-IN, DAY-OUT OPERATIONS. It’s about a new form of leadership based on five essential principles of human life expressed through five core qualities. From heartfulness, to greater reflection, to intentionality, to presence, to leading with more feminine qualities (irrespective of gender), Heartful Business: Leading with the World in Mind, sets out the standard and practices for the new era of leadership that’s fit for our times – describing why a new form of leadership is needed, what form it needs to take and, crucially, how to develop the capability to lead in this way. At whatever level you lead, Heartful Business will help you become the legacy-building leader you want to be and, more important, the world needs.

But each day is filled with opportunities to build inner strengths and Dr. Rick Hanson, an acclaimed clinical psychologist, shows what you can do to override the brain’s default pessimism. Hardwiring Happiness lays out a simple method that uses the hidden power of everyday experiences to build new neural structures full of happiness, love, confidence, and peace.
