Although written specifically for educators, this book shares strategies and ways of thinking that are applicable for everyone. Do you tend to ruminate? Do you have a propensity to catastrophize? Do you find yourself possessing a worldview that is contextualized in shame and guilt? This book is designed for individuals hoping to reclaim joy from a realistically optimistic mindset.
