A practical and inspiring self-help guide to encourage anyone feeling apprehensive or uncomfortable about starting a conversation to step into their power, talk about their mental health and help them to support themselves as well as others in the same situation.
Let's be honest, it can be really awkward talking about your mental health. In this hugely relatable practical and inspiring self-help guide, Michelle Morgan, Ambassador for Mental Health First Aid England provides a roadmap to encourage anyone feeling apprehensive or uncomfortable about starting a conversation about how they feel to step into their power, talk about their mental health to support themselves as well as others in the same situation.
Blending a much sought-after balance of information and inspiration with the personal and practical Own Your Awkward elegantly marries the lived experience with expert advice around the topic of mental health in an accessible and approachable tone.
Michelle introduces the reader to her highly successful tried and tested frameworks, BRAVE - being brave and having the courage to ask for help, and SENSE - using common sense and sensitivity to offer help, which she uses with her clients around the world. Michelle will show you step-by-step how to use the different techniques outlined as well as sharing her self-care M-Plan. By owning her awkward, she'll help you to own yours, so that others can own theirs, and together we'll get comfortable feeling uncomfortable and smash the stigma of talking about our mental health.
This book will show you not only how to transform panic into your greatest power and help others to do the same, but also how to turn awkward into your greatest asset yet.

The landscape of higher education (HE) has dramatically altered in
the past 30 years and it continues to evolve and change. More
students are entering HE and attending university or college on a
global scale than ever before. Supporting and enhancing the
undergraduate student experience across the student lifecycle, from
first contact through to alumni, is a critical activity in higher
education today not only to aid retention and progression but in a
highly competitive HE market, the quality of the student experience
is pivotal to an institution's ability to attract students. The
student experience encompasses all aspects of student life, i.e.
academic, social, welfare, with the academic imperative at the
heart of it. However, the increasing costs of delivering HE, a
reduction in government/ state funding and constraints on resources
means delivering a quality student experience has never been more
challenging for those working in HE. Staff at all levels, and
across all areas within an institution, are developing and
implementing initiatives to improve and enhance the student
experience whether they are at the coal face or on the periphery
thus making them a 'Practitioner' in the student experience. This
could include the admissions administrator improving the
information available for potential applicants; the academic
improving his/her feedback to students or central welfare
departments ensuring that their services are being advertised and
supported within a student's home unit
(faculty/department/school/course). In this book, the Editor,
Michelle Morgan describes how her new student experience
'Practitioner Model' provides an organised and more detailed
structure; guiding Practitioners in the identification of what they
have to deliver, who they need to deliver it to and when they need
to deliver it across her six key stages of the student lifecycle: *
First Contact and Admissions; * Pre-arrival; * Arrival and
Orientation; * Induction to Study; * Reorientation and Reinduction
(Returners' Induction) * Outduction (preparation for life after
undergraduate study). The Practioner Model offers a new way of
thinking in terms of delivering 'interlinked' academic, welfare and
support activities at the home unit and university level to support
the student in their university journey. This book also provides
working solutions to real problems in the form of exemplar case
studies from the UK and internationally, including chapters from
Liz Thomas, Di Nutt, Marcia Ody, Chris Keenan(UK), Mary Stuart
Hunter, (USA), Kerri-Lee Krause and Duncan Nulty (Australia). Good
practice must be adaptable and transferable because one size does
not fit all. It must also be cost effective. And here the authors
shows how practitioners can adapt and customise the 40 case studies
presented to help them not only improve and enhance the experience
of their undergraduate students in their own institution (both full
and part-time) but also to support their students' progression and
retention.

Early Modern Metaphysical Literature illuminates now-obscured aspects of cultural negotiation and denaturalization germane to numerous Metaphysical texts. Examining poetry and prose by Donne, Marvell, Lanyer, Crashaw, and Edward Herbert, this book challenges readers to recognize the provocative strangeness of these writings both in their original contexts and today.
'England? It seemed to be raining the whole time . . . Or maybe it
was me' MARILYN MONROE In July 1956, Marilyn Monroe arrived in
London, on honeymoon with her husband Arthur Miller, to make The
Sleeping Prince (later released as The Prince and the Showgirl)
with Laurence Olivier. When the couple arrived at London Airport,
they were looking forward to a peaceful stay. Marilyn would work
during the day at Pinewood Studios, while Arthur would write. Then,
in the evening, the couple would be able to relax together in their
private English country cottage. It didn't quite turn out that way.
The 'cottage' was actually a mansion, which belonged to Lord
Drogheda, the managing director of the Financial Times. Raised in
tiny hotel rooms and apartments, Marilyn felt herself being
watched. She was, by Lord Drogheda's servants, who were selling
stories to the papers. When filming began, it was a disaster.
Director Joshua Logan had written to Olivier, offering advice on
how to handle Marilyn as an actress, but Olivier ignored him.
Instead, he condescended to her in his introduction to the cast,
pooh-poohed her views on acting, and dismissed her stage-fright as
an inconvenience. Marilyn grew to hate Olivier with a passion; the
feeling was mutual. Marilyn found herself torn between settling
into married life, being a curiosity for the frequently hostile
British press, and her work on The Prince and the Showgirl. She
took solace in small acts of kindness from members of the public,
and a new fascination with Queen Elizabeth. Marilyn made a point of
adopting some of the Queen's favourite brands, buying gloves from
Cornelia James, perfume from Floris, and switching from Chanel No.
5 to Yardley's Lavender. Marilyn made a point of asking the film's
PR manager to add a royal meeting to her schedule, but each day
Olivier would delete the request. Michelle Morgan describes
Marilyn's trip to late-1950s' Britain in evocative detail,
exploring the making of the film alongside the film star's troubled
private life and her quest to meet the Queen.
