Book excerpt: The World of the Avatar It is fascinating to have the desire to be aware of what is happening in the Universe, our Planet and within the group of souls around us and indeed our very own personal and intimate life. Some individuals have reached this current incarnation and are working their way toward feeling the integration of many levels of illumination. The truth is that we touch all of these areas at a deeper level, and the soul (thoughts and feelings) will determine if we are willing to embrace the experience this time around. In the increasing circles of our growth and awareness, (and I choose to call them circles rather than levels for specific reasons) the very essence of the feeling generated inside of us is calling for a deeper and higher view through our hierarchy of needs as described and recently verified in the Maslow Hierarchy of Needs as he originally taught. No level is lessor or to be belittled and the full integration of these logical categories is completely necessary with both our human and divine natures. None are to be seen as weakness or being lessor but only the next step in our evolution toward a heavenly existence of peace, love, wisdom and self-actualization toward Transcendence to a current Holy Place in our own being. Book Clearly Addresses this thesis: Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs is as follows and a reminder: Transcendence Self-Actualization Esteem Needs Social Needs Safety Needs Physiological Needs

Download or read book Facebook Mentoring and Early Childhood Teachers written by Sharryn Clarke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores concepts of mentoring, leadership and issues faced by early childhood teachers. Foregrounded against inadequate leadership and mentoring training in this sector, this book looks at how mentoring is exercised through Facebook. Mentoring through Facebook provokes a strong sense of freedom in terms of speech and influence. The benefits for using social media in mentoring includes minimizing costs and reaching mass numbers of mentees globally where knowledge can be shared and information gained. Whilst there is also a positive and active approach to mentoring, there is the danger of mentoring that misinforms, disempowers and alienates. This book will help active players in the early childhood sector in understanding the crucial nature of mentoring and its impact when used through Facebook and similar social media sites.
