Christina Congleton: Getting Over Ourselves, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

PRAISE FOR GETTING OVER OURSELVES
"A timely and thorough exploration of how we can let go of societal expectations and connect to our true self through humility, embodiment and rediscovering a sense of awe and wonder in the world around us."
--LODRO RINZLER, author of books including The Buddha Walks into a Bar, The Buddha Walks into the Office and Take Back Your Mind: Buddhist Advice for Anxious Times, and co-founder of MNDFL meditation studios
"Congleton's touching stories, research base, and practical nudges offer an elegantly written invitation to embrace the interdependence of self and system, eschewing what has become a norm of self-striving. She gives us hope that our warm embrace will result in good company on the journey of learning, unlearning, growth, and ultimately rebuilding a thriving society for all."
--ELISE FOSTER, executive coach and co-author, The Multiplier Effect and Beautiful Questions in the Classroom
"In a world of disquiet and disconnection, this book provides a critical lens on how to focus inward so we can connect with others in more meaningful ways. Christina Congleton provides a rich tapestry of scholarship, woven together in an accessible way, with actionable guideposts, so that we can become the heroes of belonging we desperately need and yearn for. If the next generations of leaders are going to effectively navigate the challenges we will all inevitably face, we need accessible resources to support our learning, growth, and development. In Getting Over Ourselves, Christina Congleton provides one such text. As a result of her vision for and commitment to a better world, we now have a brilliant book that illuminates why change is necessary and how we each might strategically transform ourselves to be more meaningfully connected inward--and outward."
