Journey: From Political Activism to the Work - Softcover

In her quest for genuine wisdom, compassion and service, Janet Rose, a VISTA volunteer, left behind the vestiges of her previous life to pursue a path of renunciation and to apprentice herself to a spiritual teacher. How she made that choice, what that commitment entailed and how it changed every aspect of her life is what this book is about.

Dr Janet Rose is currently a Principal Lecturer and Programme Leader in Early Education at Bath Spa University. A former teacher, she has also worked in a range of early years settings, worked with children at risk and ran sensory integration workshops for 0-3s for many years both in England and abroad. She has worked closely with the National College of Teaching and Learning and led training for a number of Local Authorities and professional organisations around the country. She is the author of various publications, including a co-authored book on The Role of the Adult in Early Years Settings. She is currently developing two research projects (Attachment Aware Schools and Emotion Coaching) which focus on supporting children s behaviour and well-being.
