This collection of original short stories was contributed by a group of seasoned travelers-wisdom keepers-who've walked through the proverbial fire to discover what is possible in life when guided by spirit. The forty-two authors share their favorite miracle stories, along with affirmations, guided meditations, and tools for self-healing. If you've ever wondered what it would be like to step "beyond the veil" to get a glimpse of the other side, or be visited by an angel, or receive a message from a loved one in the afterlife, you will be delighted by the testimonials in this book. You will find stories about astonishing recoveries from life-threatening illness, spontaneous healings, and safe passage through dangerous war zones. Miracles arise as well from a sudden shift in perception-a moment of grace that forever changes one's life. There are stories about the joy of finding spiritual community, true love, reuniting with birth family, and many more. The authors of Everyday Miracles emphasize the importance of listening to our inner voice for guidance. They also show how important it is to pay attention to outward signs and events, and to listen to the body's wisdom to guide the healing process and make choices in life. You will see convincing evidence in many of these stories of the power of positive thinking and the law of attraction to create the life we desire. Everyday Miracles, Moments of Healing and Transformation will inspire you to be a miracle worker in your own life.

Law schools are failing both their staff and students by requiring them to prize reason and rationality and to suppress or ignore emotions. Despite innovations in terms of both content and teaching techniques, there is little evidence that emotions are effectively acknowledged or utilised within legal education. Instead law schools are clinging to an out-dated and erroneous perception of emotions as at best, irrational, and at worst dangerous. In contrast to this, educational and scientific developments have demonstrated that emotions are a fundamental, inescapable part of learning, teaching and skills development. Harnessing these emotions will therefore have a transformative effect on legal education and enable it to adapt to the needs and demands of the twenty-first century. This book provides a theoretical overview of the role played by emotions in all aspects of the life of the law school. It explores the relationship emotions have with key traditional and contemporary approaches to legal education, the ways in which emotions can be conceptualised, their interaction with the politics and policies of legal education and their role within teaching and learning. The book also considers the importance of emotional wellbeing for both law students and legal academics Overall, this book argues for a more holistic form of legal education in which emotions play a valuable (and valued) role. This requires a new vision for law schools, in which emotions are acknowledged and embedded at all levels, institutional and personal.
