Plagued by an over-anxious brain, the author embarks on a journey towards creativity and wholeness, after hearing her student Zarmina find her vocal freedom and move students to tears in song. As Therese searches for ways to free herself and her students from fragmented learning, restricted voices, and the fight or flight response, she accesses tools to accelerate learning, access creativity, and transcend anxiety in the classroom and in her life. These tools include engaging the heart and gut, slowing down, improvisational comedy, breath work, movement, and more. She shares their journeys, as well as her own--both the stories and the science--in this uplifting and transformative book.

About the Author

Therese Ayla Kravetz is a writer, teacher, and speaker. Before her teaching career, Therese was an actor and a voice coach. Later, she taught English to non-native speakers at a community college in Virginia. She discovered through her acting and teaching career how to "re-wire" her anxious brain and help her students do the same using voice, movement, breathing, drama, mindfulness and more. She noticed these classroom techniques accelerated learning and creativity as students bypassed anxiety. Her books, her blog, and her teaching show others how to transform the fight or flight response and tune into their authentic voice and creativity. She won a sabbatical to pursue her work in this field. She has an M.Ed. from Lesley University, and a B.S. from Georgetown.
