How to Respond with Love to Life’s Difficulties
by Selina Maitreya
InnerTraditions.com
Raise Your Frequency, Transform Your Life is a hands-on guide to cultivating a more conscious and spiritually present life. Selina Maitreya shares a radical process of self-transformation that allows you to discover your highest potential. Drawing on her 25 years of experience as a spiritual teacher, Maitreya explores how to recognize and transform the challenges you experience into tools to raise your consciousness, thus empowering you to use each difficult life experience as a tool to create peace and build the foundation for a truly abundant life. Maitreya shares her own journey, when all her plans for her future ended in the blink of an eye, leading to the creation of this book. Pulled from her car with the “Jaws of Life” following a collision, she was diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury that left her unable to live anything close to a normal life. Her huge physical and intellectual disabilities went on for the next four years, yet she experienced a connection to Oneness that she had never experienced before. In Oneness was the respite she had always sought, and all she had to do was close her eyes and breathe.
Through simple, practical exercises, as well as inspiring transformational goals and action steps, the author emphasizes the importance of accessing and raising your inner vibration. She introduces you to your energetic systems and teaches how to respond to any life difficulty— from a small irritation to a major life tragedy—using the energy of love rather than the energy of fear. By focusing on energy frequencies, rather than thoughts or emotions, she demonstrates how working with the heart frequency can provide ways to understand, work through, and transform challenges that arise—better connecting you to the higher frequency state of your intuition. As your personal vibration rises, you attract the people, situations, and events that align with your unique path toward creating and living an extraordinary life.

THE MAGICAL PLACE WE CALL SCHOOL
Creating a Safe Space For Learning and Happiness in a Challenging World
by Dr. Kathleen Corely

At a time when public school educators face student absenteeism, falling achievement and deteriorating mental health on a daily basis, according to a recent joint investigation by ProPublica and the New Yorker, Dr. Kathleen Corley has figured out how to transform her school into a warm, nurturing community with a passion for learning.
In her new book, The Magical Place We Call School: Creating a Safe Space for Learning and Happiness in a Challenging World, Dr. Corley, a 40-year veteran in elementary education, shares how to overcome current obstacles in education with human interest stories that illuminate a brighter path forward, and how she inspires her students and teachers to want to excel while emphasizing the power of fun. Written with humor, insight and optimism, Dr. Corley reminds readers that despite the problems in schools today — disagreements about what students should or should not be taught, etc. — magic still happens in classrooms. But that magic needs more than wishful thinking; it requires tenacity and good design. In addition, teachers must be backed up and empowered by administrators; administrators must be backed up by district officers; and policy makers must listen to district personnel. Dr. Corley says schools can raise the bar. Extraordinary things still happen in schools across America. The Magical Place We Call School is the primer needed to heal the American education system and build a supportive learning community.
