Teaching - if you do it right - is tough.  Every student is utterly unique, with different learning styles and strengths, interests, experiences and motivations.  Each student places challenges on you that require you to respond with your entire being - body, mind and spirit. No wonder teaching is more a calling than a job, needing as much talent and skill as any art.  No wonder you sometimes feel so depleted, so tired.  

This book of gentle meditations offers sound and realistic advice for taking care of yourself, for bringing out the best in those you teach, for recognising and respecting the power you have to change lives.
