Fuegos enciende, polvos levanta: Magia popular para la bruja tradicional
by Solitude of AlannaUna guía práctica de magia popular para la bruja tradicional La hechicería popular es el conjunto de prácticas mágicas comunes de un pueblo. Prácticas que, desde tiempos lejanos, han conectado a nuestros antepasados con la naturaleza de su entorno, con sus ancestros y con las fuerzas que movían su mundo. Los tiempos cambian, pero hay cosas que siempre permanecerán inmutables, puesto que son parte de la propia naturaleza humana, de la existencia y de la Otredad. Aunque sea llevada a cabo por nuevas manos, la hechicería popular conforma nuestra identidad cultural, nuestra historia y nuestro patrimonio espiritual, religioso y mágico. Retomar sus prácticas nos devuelve esa conexión con nuestros antepasados y nuestro territorio. Además, la magia popular nos hace ver que no es necesario nada exclusivo, caro o alejado de nuestra cotidianidad para una práctica profundamente significativa. Una que entienda el pasado y aprenda de él para dar sentido al presente. Una manera consciente de utilizar la sabiduría, las herramientas y los recursos de lo tradicional para nuestra práctica personal, adaptada a nuestros tiempos y necesidades propias. Sin embargo, has de saber que esta no es una obra para aquellos que temen indagar en las sombras o transgredir el tabú. La hechicería popular no es inocente ni aséptica; es sucia y astuta, venenosa, insolente y oportunista. Es sangre, hueso y tierra, sexo, espinas clavadas y palabras susurradas en la noche más profunda. Solo abrazando la naturaleza liminal de la hechicería popular podremos desentrañar sus más oscuros maleficios, pero también llegar a abrazar su más sublime luz. Un nuevo libro de Natalia Saldaña, Solitude of Alanna en redes, referente en espiritualidad, brujería y territorio que ya ha conquistado a miles de lectores con En mi bosque interior y Hacia lo salvaje.

Fucking Daphne: Mostly True Stories and Fictions
by Daphne GottliebWhen Daphne Gottlieb first found herself the character in someone else's story she was intrigued; over time, as she appeared in more and more stories, she started to wonder about the implications of what was real and what wasn't. Did it matter that there were published stories of her having sex in bathrooms, vacant parking lots, on the balcony at a party in an old bordello? Did it matter whether or not they were true?This question sparked the idea for Fucking Daphne, a collection that blurs the lines between reality and fiction and begs the question "who is the real Daphne?" A pill-popping wild child? A soft place to fall with a broken heart? A dreadlocked vixen?Contributors include Hanne Blank, Stephen Elliot, Sarah Katherine Lewis, and Ariel Gore, who describe, watch, and engage with a character that is not Daphne Gottlieb; Daphne is a projection, a fantasy, a zeitgeist. We are all a multitude of people in bed. We are all Daphne.Harnessing the playfulness of the hoax, the seductiveness of literature, and the edginess of the avant-garde, Fucking Daphne is unique in a culture hungry for sex, information, and most of all, understanding.

In the crowded medical memoir field, this stands out." -- Publishers Weekly A powerful critique of the failures in our healthcare system and an inquiry into the sinister strains of wellness culture that prey on people&’s vulnerabilities through schemes, scams, and diets.Jacqueline Alnes was a Division One runner during her freshman year of college, but her season was cut short by a series of inexplicable neurological symptoms. What started with a cough, escalated to Alnes collapsing on the track and experiencing months of unremembered episodes that stole her ability to walk and speak. Two years after quitting the team to heal, Alnes&’s symptoms returned with a severity that left her using a wheelchair for a period of months.

Alnes wasn&’t alone. From all over the world, people in pain, doubted or dismissed by medical authorities, or seeking a miracle diet that would relieve them of white, Western expectations placed on their figures, turned to fruit in hopes of releasing themselves from the perceived failings of their bodies.In The Fruit Cure, Jacqueline Alnes takes readers on a spellbinding and unforgettable journey through the world of fruitarianism, interweaving her own powerful narrative with the popularity and problematic history of fruit-based, raw food lifestyles.

Frontiers of Psychedelic Consciousness: Conversations with Albert Hofmann, Stanislav Grof, Rick Strassman, Jeremy Narby, Simon Posford, and Others
by David Jay BrownIn-depth and well-researched interviews with the leading minds in psychedelic science and culture • A curated collection of interviews with 15 accomplished scientists, artists, and thinkers, including Albert Hofmann, Stanislav Grof, Rick Strassman, and Charles Tart • Explores their profound reflections on the intersections between psychedelics and a wide range of topics, including psychology, creativity, music, the near-death experience, DNA, and the future of psychedelic drug medical research After many dark years of zealous repression, there are now more than a dozen government-approved clinical studies with psychedelics taking place around the globe. But what does the future hold for psychedelic research and the expansion of consciousness? In this curated collection of interviews with pioneers in psychedelic thought, David Jay Brown explores the future of mind-altering drugs, hallucinogenic plants, and the evolution of human consciousness. The accomplished scientists, artists, and thinkers interviewed in the book include LSD discoverer Albert Hofmann, psychologist Stanislav Grof, DMT researcher Rick Strassman, anthropologist Jeremy Narby, MAPS founder Rick Doblin, ethnobotanist Dennis McKenna, psychologist Charles Tart, and musician Simon Posford from Shpongle, as well as many others. Demonstrating deep knowledge of his interviewees’ work, Brown elicits profound reflections from them as well as their considered opinions on the future of psychedelic drug medical research, God and the afterlife, LSD and mysticism, DMT research and non-human entity contact, problem-solving and psychedelics, ayahuasca and DNA, psilocybin and the religious experience, MDMA and PTSD, releasing the fear of death, the tryptamine dimension, the therapeutic potential of salvia, and the intersections between psychedelics and creativity, ecology, paranormal phenomena, and alternate realities. In each interview we discover how these influential minds were inspired by their use of entheogens. We see how psychedelics have the potential to help us survive as a species, not only by their therapeutic benefits but also by revealing our sacred connection to the biosphere and by prompting people to begin on the path of spiritual evolution.

From Whispers to Shouts: The Ways We Talk About Cancer
by Elaine SchattnerIt’s hard today to remember how recently cancer was a silent killer, a dreaded disease about which people rarely spoke in public. In hospitals and doctors’ offices, conversations about malignancy were hushed and hope was limited. In this deeply researched book, Elaine Schattner reveals a sea change—from before 1900 to the present day—in how ordinary people talk about cancer.From Whispers to Shouts examines public perception of cancer through stories in newspapers and magazines, social media, and popular culture. It probes the evolving relationship between journalists and medical specialists and illuminates the role of women and charities that distributed medical information. Schattner traces the origins of patient advocacy and activism from the 1920s onward, highlighting how, while doctors have lost control of messages about cancer, survivors have gained visibility and voice.The book’s final section lays out provocative questions facing the cancer community today—including distrust of oncologists, concerns over financial burdens, and disparities in cancer treatments and care. Schattner considers how patients and their loved ones struggle to make decisions amid conflicting information and opinions. She explores the ramifications of so much openness, good and bad, and asks: Has awareness backfired? Instead, Schattner contends, we need greater understanding of cancer’s treatability.
