some. Sometimes life happens, and it sucks. So, what do you do? Well, you have two choices. You can either wallow in self-pity and eat a lot of carbs, or you can grab a R.A.F.T. and get back on track. In Noah Had an Ark. You Need a RAFT, author and educator, Dr. Chantrise Sims Holliman draws on research-based strategies, adult learning theory, personal stories, and humor to introduce the concept of R.A.F.T. (Resilience And Flexible Thinking) to anyone who's looking for a way to recover when life doesn't give you lemons but hurls them at your head instead. In this humorous, yet practical, book Dr. Chantrise challenges you to adjust the way you think (and thereby respond), to life's setbacks by giving you tools and sensible advice to remind you that: "Thoughts are the words we speak to ourselves and the words we speak become the house we live in." It's time to let go of the old ways of overcoming obstacles and embrace some new ones. Noah used an ark to get from point A to point B. What YOU need is a RAFT!
