The astonishing, uplifting story of a real-life Indiana Jones and his humanitarian campaign to use education to combat terrorism in the Taliban’s backyard Anyone who despairs of the individual’s power to change lives has to read the story of Greg Mortenson, a homeless mountaineer who, following a 1993 climb of Pakistan’s treacherous K2, was inspired by a chance encounter with impoverished mountain villagers and promised to build them a school. Over the next decade he built fifty-five schools—especially for girls—that offer a balanced education in one of the most isolated and dangerous regions on earth. As it chronicles Mortenson’s quest, which has brought him into conflict with both enraged Islamists and uncomprehending Americans, Three Cups of Tea combines adventure with a celebration of the humanitarian spirit.

It's no wonder, then, that we struggle with our emotions--when we're sometimes shamed and blamed for having them in the first place, it can be difficult to learn how to express them in a healthy way.

Intended for children but suitable for readers of all ages, "A Cup of Tea with Sadness" is a gentle book with a profound message. Perfect for parents and grandparents wishing to have open conversations with their children, it can also help teens, young adults and adults learn to cope with and understand their feelings. It also helps demonstrate how the Internal Family Systems model of therapy can help explore, understand and build a healthy relationship between the Self and our various parts.Emotions are something we all experience every moment of every day, but we don't always know how to handle them. Perhaps, all we need to do is sit down and have a cup of tea with them.
