Book Description
The Way of the Mindful Warrior provides a fresh, authentic, and structured path to using mindfulness to embrace living in awareness and reconnecting with our innermost nature of peace, wisdom, and compassion. Mindfulness is a 2,500-year-old Buddhist meditation practice that involves focusing awareness on the present moment, the only place where an individual can truly embrace and experience life. In recent decades, mindfulness has gained popularity amongst scientists, healthcare practitioners, and the public more generally. An abundance of popular books has subsequently emerged providing different interpretations of how to practice mindfulness and apply it in daily-living contexts. However, most current approaches to mindfulness have removed it from its traditional spiritual context or overlook important scientific insights from research into this ancient contemplative technique. The Way of Mindful Warrior addresses this oversight and integrates the traditional Buddhist teachings on mindfulness with emerging insights from the scientific study of mindfulness, wellbeing and the human mind. This book is timely and presents a fresh, easily digestible, and structured path to using mindfulness not only as a tool for coping with the stresses and strains of contemporary living, but also as a means to cultivating unconditional wellbeing and for flourishing as a human being.

Book Description
Our brains are hardwired for empathy so you would expect that we would encounter it often in our day-to-day interactions--but we don't! In Empathy Warriors, an interactive journal workbook for everyone ages twelve to adult, educator Tedi Ware explains why giving and receiving empathy happens so infrequently and what we need to do to access and use our innate capacity for it. She then goes on to teach her readers, in concrete and easy to follow ways, exactly how to practice empathy, teach it to others, and make it the foundation of all their relationships. Tedi Ware shares her own story of a painful adolescence when empathy was missing from her life and how she developed a compulsive eating disorder as a means of coping with her loneliness and isolation. Tedi Ware provides her readers with life-enriching techniques that show them how to empower and protect themselves as they build their own empathy-based communities that nurture and sustain all members. Tedi lovingly accompanies her readers on their journeys of becoming happy, confident Empathy Warriors.

Book Description
Adolescents face unique pressures and worries. Will they pass high school? Should they go to college? Will they find love? And what ways do they want to act in the world? The uncertainty surrounding the future can be overwhelming. Sadly, and all too often, if things don’t go smoothly, adolescents will begin labeling themselves as losers, unpopular, unattractive, weird, or dumb. And, let’s not forget the ubiquitous ‘not good enough’ story that often begins during these formative years. These labels are often carried forward throughout life. So what can you do, now, to help lighten this lifelong burden? The Thriving Adolescent offers teachers, counselors, and mental health professionals powerful techniques for working with adolescents. Based in proven- effective acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), the skills and tips outlined in this book will help adolescents and teens manage difficult emotions, connect with their values, achieve mindfulness and vitality, and develop positive relationships with friends and family. The evidence-based practices in this book focus on developing a strong sense of self, and will give adolescents the confidence they need to make that difficult transition into adulthood. Whether it’s school, family, or friend related, adolescents experience a profound level of stress, and often they lack the psychological tools to deal with stress in productive ways. The skills we impart to them now will help set the stage for a happy, healthy adulthood. If you work with adolescents or teens, this is a must-have addition to your professional library.

Book Description
Noble warrior values offer insight for every day. In this exquisite book the spiritual nature of a Japanese warrior's philosophy reveals how we, too, can use these beliefs as a guide in our own lives. The warrior travels on his journey, and his experiences are recounted as if from master experiences are recounted as if from master to pupil to offer us guidance and support for the challenges of everyday life. Each morning, simply open the book and choose one of the thirty-six readings at random to discover the message the warrior brings you for that day. Path of the Warrior is illustrated with stunning Japanese art, and each image has been carefully chosen to express the sentiments of the warrior's words.
