Breaking Free of Bullying began when my own career as a teacher was threatened after twenty years of loyal service, by a boss who deemed me as an unprofessional teacher and who felt my job performance was unsatisfactory after only two years as principal. I began to feel targeted when I was constantly asked to come into the office for discussions that had to do with "complaints" from parents and staff members. The principal at that time was using me as a scapegoat to further her own agenda of climbing the corporate ladder to the district office. I was an easy target because I was an outspoken educator who fought for injustices as a union representative. Breaking Free of Bullying is an interactive book that is written for children, teenagers, and adults who feel they are being bullied in some way or another. This book will ask emotional questions that are meant to provoke deep reflection. Through the use of mindfulness education (ME), this book will allow you to write out your feelings, ideas, and imaginary details. Likewise, this book will give you an opportunity to express the true emotions you are experiencing with those who are bullying you.
