When you've found your way to Return to Life, it's probably because you've experienced some hard times. Perhaps you've lived through a breakup or an illness; or a period of high stress, anxiety, grief or depression. If you've ever had one or more of these brought-you-to-your-knees moments, this book is meant for you. We all experience hardship: none of us is alone in this. But our darkest times often provide the best opportunities to learn, grow, and change our lives for the better. Based on learnings from her fifteen-year journey through illness, divorce, grief, depression and PTSD, Pam Butler shares wisdom that we can all use, no matter the challenge. Each chapter contains guided practices, such as journaling, meditation, yoga and other spiritual techniques, that will help you through difficult times. When you're having trouble finding your way or when you're feeling stuck, there is hope. Pam Butler's inspirational story can be your guide to living a more meaningful and happier life!
The contributors in this collection argue neoliberal discourses are prevalent in higher education and seek to undermine, commodify, and co-opt the radical, transformative work that many gender and women's studies departments, programs, and centers are doing. The contributors discuss the ways in which they respond to these challenges in and out of the classrooms: from mentorship and activism to active allyship, experimental pedagogies, and applying feminist theory. The contributors propose a new wave of feminist consciousness raising, new tools for engaged teaching and activism, new visions of self-care models, slow research and scholarship, unionization, and new advice for leaving tenured or tenure-track positions that serves as doorways to new understandings of productivity and creativity.
