America’s Teachers are in a War 4 Kids…this is not a drill. The Sensitive Heart Vision - Revelation One is an underground-to-surface exposure, disclosing a journey one could call Th e Path Forward… a Path of Purpose. Once again, Hannah Hope paints a captivating picture, a Sensitive Heart picture that moves beyond teaching to explore everyday life, demystify the world of education, challenge demeaning stereotypes, and question the smokescreen status quo. Vision reveals impactful snapshots of the spiritual guidance that, artfully glued together onto a revelational backing, make a riveting and powerful collage. With honesty, humor, compelling style, and fluid creativity, The Sensitive Heart Vision is a bright light in the dark setting of America’s underfunded and often ignored public schools. This inspired work features a new voice and takes the reader on a thought-provoking & entertaining journey.

At age fifty, Susan Morris is diagnosed with breast cancer—and she’s floored. Desperate to pinpoint the cause, one night she decides to type a question into her search engine: “What are the risk factors of getting breast cancer?” She’s surprised to discover research showing that long-term exposure to stress and traumatic childhood experiences can both increase the risk of breast cancer. The Sensitive One is a braided memoir that alternates between Morris’s childhood—as a sensitive child and then teenager who shouldered the burden of caring for her younger siblings as her dad’s alcoholism tore at the threads of their home life—and an adult who for a decade-plus has been living a trauma-free life with a caring husband and rewarding career in nursing . . . only to be diagnosed with breast cancer. This is a story of redemption—of a woman who manages to escape harrowing circumstances and start anew—but it’s also a story of how our legacy lives within us, and how healing from the adverse effects of childhood can truly take a lifetime.

It’s a commonly heard phrase: Stop being so sensitive. These words can be frustrating to hear, and if you are an emotionally sensitive person, they often have the opposite of the desired effect. You cannot simply switch off your emotions like you would a TV show or a radio station playing an annoying song. But there are effective techniques that can help you manage these emotions before they take over your life. In The Emotionally Sensitive Person, a psychologist provides proven-effective cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques to help people like you who struggle with intense emotions. In the book, you will learn powerful tools for staying in the present moment, identifying emotional triggers, developing a strong and healthy identity, and experiencing overwhelming or uncomfortable emotions without becoming upset. You’ll also learn how to be more relaxed in your relationships, how your personal values can affect your thoughts and actions, and how to recognize negative thought patterns before you start acting on them. If you are tired of feeling hurt and helpless when it comes to your feelings, this book will provide you with evidence-based strategies for taking charge of your emotions—whether it’s at home, at work, or in your relationships.
