The REAL University Challenge: Helping students to become
flourishing life-long learners. As a tutor you want to help
students to flourish not only academically but in all aspects of
their university lives: mentally, emotionally, physically, socially
and spiritually. But with students reporting stress and anxiety at
an all-time high, and academic staff under more pressure than ever
before, you could use some help. In this new, post-pandemic edition
of the classic guide, Fabienne Vailes reveals how you can help your
students develop a 'tool box' of well-being techniques that will
support them through university and beyond, and ensure your own
well-being at the same time. She finishes with thoughts on how
universities can implement systemic changes that support
flourishing at an institutional, not just at an individual, level.
Fabienne Vailes is an expert on emotional and mental well-being
within the education sector. She is on a mission to change the face
of education - embedding well-being into the curriculum to create
an environment where both students and staff flourish and become
empowered lifelong learners to succeed both academically and in the
workplace.

will help you simplify everything, and concentrate on what really
matters. From honouring the rhythm of the seasons to creating a
welcoming home, from reframing failure to ageing with grace, wabi
sabi will teach you to find more joy and inspiration throughout
your perfectly imperfect life. This book is the definitive guide to
applying the principles of wabi sabi to transform every area of
your life, and finding happiness right where you are.

Ampossible is the go-to guide for every amputee from the first day
after limb loss to the day they get their life back. Thousands of
amputations happen each day and millions happen every single year
around the world. Yet, what an amputee actually experiences minutes
after surgery, what's endured through the heart-wrenching recovery,
to the time they get their life back, is rarely addressed in its
complexity. Almost every amputee experiences an onslaught of
emotions filled with confusion, grief, anxiety, depression, and
immense physical pain. AMPOSSIBLE offers a glimpse into the
realities of limb loss for those who experience it and answers the
many questions amputees often have surrounding their very immediate
medical needs as well as the long-term challenges, both physical
and emotional, amputees must face. The book is a no-holds-barred
real-world depiction of life as an amputee. Jeffrey A. Mangus, a
below the knee (BKA) amputee, delivers straightforward information
for both the amputee and his or her family and support network.
Covering the basics of wound care and rehabilitation, he also
addresses the very real emotional needs of living a new reality
without a part of the body intact. Offering hope and guidance,
however, Mangus encourages readers to challenge themselves to
overcome the downsides and live a full and engaged life.
