It is time for this special book to come into the world and YOU and ANY teacher you care about are invited!
Misha would love for you to not only witness and partake in this exciting moment but also enjoy the benefits of her offerings during this event.
Her book, A Teacher’s Companion: How to Center Empathy and Emotional Intelligence for Yourself and Your Students, is centered on bringing peace and joy to our amazing teachers. This helps their impact to be filled with love, compassion, and empathy for themselves and their students resulting in students feeling cared for, nurtured, and eager to learn. The launch party will be set up in a similar way.
We will…
start with a playful low-stress ice breaker
enjoy a moment of silence together to acknowledge all people around the world suffering from physical ailments, injustice, mental health, and loss
participate in an intention setting activity
hear a few sections from the book read by Misha
journal our reflections and offer a brave space, for those who wish, to share aloud or in the zoom chat
pledge to support the book by sharing the book link and/or purchase the book for themselves or others
Teacher appreciation Week is May 8-12th so you have plenty of time to purchase this book for all your teachers! But, please do not buy the book until April 30th! Thank you!
