Megan's Vader Wordt Ziek: Een Spirituele Gids, Een Geesttijger en Een Erg Angstaanjagende Moeder! (De paranormale Megan-reeks #10)
by Owen JonesMegan's Vader Wordt Ziek Een Spirituele Gids Een Geesttijger en Een Erg Angstaanjagende Moeder Megan is een dertien jaar oud meisje, dat beseft dat ze psychische krachten bezit die anderen niet hebben. Aanvankelijk probeerde ze er met haar moeder over te praten, maar met rampzalige gevolgen, dus heeft ze geleerd om erover te zwijgen. Sommige mensen hebben echter hulp aangeboden en een dier betoonde een special vriendschap, maar zij ‘leefden’ niet in de normale zin van het woord. Zij waren overleden. Megan heeft drie zulke vrienden: Wacinhinsha, haar spirituele gids, die in zijn laatste leven op aarde Sioux was geweest, haar grootvader langs moeder’s kant, Opa en een enorme Siberische tijger die Grrr heet. Wacinhinsha heeft een buitengewone kennis over alle spirituele, psychische en paranormale dingen; haar grootvader is een beginnende ‘dode persoon’ en Grrr kan enkel Tijger spreken, zoals je je kan voorstellen en het meeste daarvan is natuurlijk onverstaanbaar voor mensen. In ‘Megan’s Vader Wordt Ziek’ is Megan bezorgd voor de gezondheid van haar vader, want ze heeft hem nog nooit eerder zo ziek gezien, dus besluit ze te proberen om haar psychische krachten te gebruiken om hem te genezen. Uiteindelijk gebruikt ze een combinatie van haar gaven en het Internet om manieren te ontdekken om hem te laten herstellen. Wacinhinsha geeft haar een lezing over geneeskunde en zijn toepassing, vooral vanuit het Spiritialistische oogpunt.

by Owen JonesMegans skolprov En andeguide, en spöktiger och en skrämmande mamma! Megan är en trettonårig tonårsflicka som upptäcker och inser att hon har psykiska krafter som andra inte har. Först försökte hon prata med sin mamma om dem, men med katastrofala konsekvenser, så hon lärde sig att hålla tyst om dem. Vissa erbjuder dock sin hjälp och ett djur visade en speciell vänskap, men de levde inte i ordets rätta mening. De hade ju avlidit. Megan har tre sådana vänner: Wacinhinsha, hennes andliga guid, som hade varit Sioux i sitt senaste liv på jorden; hennes farfar, Gramps och en enorm sibirisk tiger som heter Grrr. Wacinhinsha är extremt kunnig i allt andligt, psykiskt och paranormalt.

I 'Megans skolprov' är Megan oroad över sina prov eftersom de är de första riktiga prov som hon någonsin gjort. Hon oroar sig bokstavligen sjuk, men Wacinhinsha, hennes andliga Guid, ger henne ett pep-talk och får Megan att klara sig igenom detta..
Meisner and Mindfulness: Authentic and Truthful Solutions for the Challenges of Modern Acting
by Royce SparksMeisner and Mindfulness: Authentic and Truthful Solutions for the Challenges of Modern Acting is the first book that reveals how Meisner and mindfulness can be united to create strong results for actors and help them navigate the challenges of the digital age. The twenty-first century has created an entirely new set of demands and pressures on the working actor, including an acceleration of the digital age and the complications of COVID-19, which have led to auditions, rehearsals, and even whole performances happening entirely in isolation. This book combines a modern rethinking of the Meisner technique with a complementary set of tools from mindfulness meditation to offer profound solutions to these growing challenges, addressing the demands of a post-coronavirus industry as well as the pressures of acting in the digital era. In this ground-breaking expansion of the technique, readers will discover how it is possible to train some of the deepest values of living truthfully under a given set of circumstances, both with other actors and whilst alone. Since the 1950s the Meisner technique has aided the actor in navigating the demands unique to their time. This book is a powerful reminder that, even in the midst of so many changes and challenges, the truthfulness that has defined outstanding performances across generations is still within reach. Full of easily accessible mindfulness and Meisner exercises and principles for practice-based support, Meisner and Mindfulness will be illuminating to working actors, directors, students and instructors of acting, and practitioners of the Meisner technique looking to develop the authenticity, immediateness, and closeness essential to great acting. The book also includes access to an online supplement featuring additional exercises and concepts, including new ways to incorporate Meisner exercises into training sessions, suggestions for how Meisner-oriented companies can use exercises such as repetition in rehearsals, and discussions for how to set up a facilitated Meisner group.

by EckhartThis introduction to the writing and preaching of the greatest medieval European mystic contains selections from his sermons, treatises, and sayings, as well as Table Talk, the records of his informal advice to his spiritual children.
Meister Eckhart: A Mystic-Warrior for Our Times
by Matthew FoxThough he lived in the thirteenth century, Meister Eckhart’s deeply ecumenical teachings were in many ways modern. He taught about what we call ecology, championed artistic creativity, and advocated for social, economic, and gender justice. All these elements have inspired spiritual maverick Matthew Fox and influenced his Creation Spirituality. Here, Fox creates metaphorical meetings between Eckhart and Teilhard de Chardin, Thich Nhat Hanh, Carl Jung, Black Elk, Rumi, Adrienne Rich, and other radical thinkers. The result is profoundly insightful, substantive, and inspiring.
Mejorando en dominadas – ¡De DÉBIL a MAZADO en cuestión de SEMANAS!
by Rahul MookerjeeSi estás leyendo esto, existen buenas posibilidades de que sepas lo que es no ser capaz de hacer ni UNA dominada en este momento. De hecho, hay posibilidades de que colgar de una barra de dominadas durante un tiempo razonable sea un ejercicio inútil para ti. Puedo entenderlo. La persona promedio hoy día casi no puede sostenerse de una barra más allá de unos segundos antes de soltarla, ni mucho menos hacer varias repeticiones perfectas de la muy temida y admirada DOMINADA (ya sea prona o supina). Y sin hablar de las personas promedio, la mayoría de la gente que va al gimnasio en el día de hoy es incapaz de bombear dominadas con la forma y ritmo correctos. El tipo con los abultados dorsales puede ser capaz de mover grandes kilajes en la máquina de jalones, pero si lo pones en una estación de dominadas, probablemente no pueda hacer ni una sola repetición. ¿Ves a aquel tipo con biceps enormes que hace montones de repeticiones de curls con mancuernas? Si lo llevas a la estación de dominadas, es probable que no sea capaz de ni siquiera colgar de la barra durante un tiempo considerable. Mucho menos hacer dominadas a altas repes. Y te puedes olvidar de que pueda hacer variantes SUPER DURAS como las que hago abajo. Las dominadas son el ejercicio que todos quieren hacer, pero la mayoría NO PUEDEN, y aquellos que las hacen, con frecuencia utilizan una forma terrible. Las dominadas son el ejercicio, junto con las flexiones haciendo el pino, que inspiran ASOMBRO a los que miran, especialmente cuando haces repeticiones con tanta suavidad y apenas sin que la respiración se altere. Pero ¿quién puede hacerlas así? Las dominadas son un ejercicio que te hará sentir como un HOMBRE - ¡Un verdadero HOMBRE! Y las dominadas, amigo mío, es el PRIMER paso en la escalera de un torso y tronco sobrehumanos, rivalizado por pocos. Las dominadas también te hacen sentir FUERTE (alias “MAZADO”) de una forma que pocos ot
Melancholy, Medicine and Religion in Early Modern England
by Mary Ann LundThe Anatomy of Melancholy, first published in 1621, is one of the greatest works of early modern English prose writing, yet it has received little substantial literary criticism in recent years. This study situates Robert Burton's complex work within three related contexts: religious, medical and literary/rhetorical. Analysing Burton's claim that his text should have curative effects on his melancholic readership, it examines the authorial construction of the reading process in the context of other early modern writing, both canonical and non-canonical, providing a new approach towards the emerging field of the history of reading. Lund responds to Burton's assertion that melancholy is an affliction of body and soul which requires both a spiritual and a corporal cure, exploring the theological complexion of Burton's writing in relation to English religious discourse of the early seventeenth century, and the status of his work as a medical text.

Memories and Monsters: Psychology, Trauma, and Narrative (Relational Perspectives Book Series)
by Eric R. Severson David M. GoodmanMemories and Monsters explores the nature of the monstrous or uncanny, and the way psychological trauma relates to memory and narration. This interdisciplinary book works on the borderland between psychology and philosophy, drawing from scholars in both fields who have helped mould the bourgeoning field of relational psychoanalysis and phenomenological and existential psychology. The editors have sought out contributions to this field that speak to the pressing question: how are we to attend to and contend with our monsters? The authors in this volume examine the ways in which we might best relate to our monsters, and how the legacies of ancient traumas and anxieties continue to affect our current stories, memories and everyday practices. Covering such manifestations of the monstrous as racism, crimes against humanity, trauma as portrayed in music and art, and the Holocaust, this book explores the impact the uncanny has on our individual and collective psyches. By focusing on a very specific theme, and one that excites the imagination, Memories and Monsters stokes the flames of an important current movement in relational psychoanalysis. It will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists, as well as professionals in psychology and graduate school students and tutors in the fields of both psychology and philosophy.
Memories in Dragonflies: Simple Lessons for Mindful Dying
by Lannette Cornell BloomLife—and death—may be hard; but joy is simple. Lannette Cornell Bloom, a typical, overworked nurse, wife, and mom of two, was forty-three when her mother was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis. She quit her job and dove headlong into the familiar role of caretaking. This choice—to slow down and be present for the hardest year of her life—resulted in an awakening. In unexpected moments, as childhood memories flooded into the present, Lannette glimpsed bits of magic that existed just beyond the pain. Without knowing it, she was experiencing a mindful dying process with her mother—and it was a journey that would change the way she lived the rest of her life. A touching and soulful memoir that gracefully uncovers the beauty that is often lost within the dying process, Memories in Dragonflies is a beautiful portrait of what it means to be human and a gentle reminder to enjoy every moment, because even the simplest ones bring lasting joy.
Memories of Heaven: Children's Astounding Recollections Of The Time Before They Came To Earth
by Wayne W. Dyer Dee GarnesPoet William Wordsworth expressed the idea that we gradually lose our intimate knowledge of heaven as we grow up, observing that "our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting" of our previous existence in Spirit.Dr. Wayne W. Dyer and co-author Dee Garnes had often talked about how the ones who know the most about God are those who have just recently been wrapped in the arms of the Divine: our infants and toddlers. In fact, Dee had an interaction with her own young son that convinced her of his acquaintance with our Source of being. Curious about this phenomenon, Wayne and Dee decided to issue an invitation to parents all over the globe to share their experiences. The overwhelming response they received prompted them to put together this book, which includes the most interesting and illuminating of these stories in which boys and girls speak about their remembrances from the time before they were born.Children share their dialogues with God, talk about long-deceased family members they knew while in the dimension of Spirit, verify past-life recollections, give evidence that they themselves had a hand in picking their own parents and the timing of their sojourn to Earth, and speak eloquently and accurately of a kind of Divine love that exists beyond this physical realm.This fascinating book encourages all of us, not just parents, to take a much more active role in communicating with our planet’s new arrivals . . . and to realize that there is far more to this earthly experience than what we perceive with our five senses.
