The Middle Place - Some Additional Items

Hey, Gang.

I thought I'd try to wrangle up some supplemental information and resources for our discussion of The Middle Place.

The YouTube of Kelly reading her essay "Transcending." I was waiting and waiting for this to be in the book, wondering where and how it would fit in.

Kelly's website:

The website she created as a resource for those helping a friend with cancer:

I am hoping to jot down some of my thoughts on and favorite passages from the books soon. I hope you all are getting a chance to read it and that you're enjoying it! (Even if the Edward is not glittery.)

Her website led me to this site that Kelly is involved in. http://greatergood.berkeley.edu/tools.php

It's a parenting tool, and I love the videos she does with the doctor. Some great reminders on raising kiddos!

Thanks for putting all these resources together, Kjirsten.

Wow, good find, Jade. I just read the Emotion Coaching article. Good stuff there. I didn't see the videos, though. I'll keep looking.

Ah...found a video. Praise effort, not the outcome!

Thanks for all the links!! I just hope I have a chance to browse them...

(Thanks too for the "Edward not being glittery" comment... that has been difficult for me to reconcile the two!! hee hee!)
