Audaciously Alive: Choosing to Live Well on Purpose
by Roxanne HarrisIn Audaciously Alive: Choosing to Live Well on Purpose, Roxanne Harris helps readers see where they are in their own struggle with autoimmune or chronic disease—and the pitfalls, confusion, and torment that goes with it—to find the path back to freedom and true living. After a devastating diagnosis of an autoimmune disease, ankylosing spondylitis, just two weeks after the birth of her fourth child, Roxanne Harris refused to submit to life in a wheelchair and began the fight of her life—to create beauty from the ashes of disease, broken relationships, and the crippling of her body. In Audaciously Alive, she shares her pain, the many trials she faced, and her most audacious moments of standing firm and not giving up. She highlights keys to living well and gives insight and wisdom so that you can better see the traps and speed bumps that could derail you in your own path to recovery. Packed with practical tools, Roxanne will help you turn the freight train of your health and life around and get back on track physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. You no longer have to live in panic, confusion, or fear after a diagnosis. Instead, you can choose to be audacious and live on purpose every day.

Aumenta el poder de tu cerebro: reinicia tu mente
by Marcus A. Pfeiffer Guadalupe BuosiTu cerebro y su potencial ¿Alguna vez te has preguntado sobre el potencial desaprovechado de tu cerebro? En promedio, un hombre utiliza solo un 3% del potencial de este órgano milagroso de 1,5 kg (aproximadamente). Este porcentaje representa los mensajes que nuestra conciencia puede recibir y entender. El otro 97% de nuestro poder cerebral está atrapado en nuestro subconsciente. Cada uno de nosotros tiene la capacidad de aprovechar este poder oculto y utilizarlo para enriquecer nuestras vidas y vivir mejor. Más viejo, más sabio también En una época, las personas subestimaban demasiado sus cerebros. Eran lo que eran, un recipiente para nuestras ideas y pensamientos, un depósito para nuestros recuerdos, un aparato que soluciona problemas con el cual nacemos. La gente reconocía que algunas personas parecían haber sido bendecidas con más inteligencia que otras en el mundo en el que vivimos. Muchos sentían que era bastante normal perder una parte del cerebro con el correr de los años. A menudo, este debilitamiento paulatino avanzaba aún más en algunas personas causándoles un deterioro mental.

Aura-Soma: Self-Discovery through Color
by Vicky WallA compelling account of the development of Aura-Soma color therapy by its founder Vicky Wall• Shows how Aura-Soma uses the symbolism, energies, and effect of color to promote growth in consciousness• Explains the nature and use of the dual-colored Equilibrium combinations• Explores the subtle anatomy of the individual to balance the body's chakrasAura-Soma is an innovative approach to soul therapy that relies on bottles of dual-colored liquids that incorporate plant extracts, essential oils, and the energies and extracts of precious and semiprecious stones. The energetic properties found in the liquids interact with the individual's aura to help support equilibrium in the body, mind, and spirit.The practice of Aura-Soma was developed by Vicky Wall, who drew upon the mystical traditions of the Kabbalah and the medicinal and healing qualities of living plants that she learned from her father. Clairvoyant from childhood, she was able to perceive the subtle energies surrounding an individual. As an adult, this clairvoyant ability was amplified as her physical sight diminished and was eventually lost. Having been an apprentice to a pharmacist in an earlier phase of her life, her understanding of the significance of combining substances resurfaced as she created the first dual-colored Equilibrium bottle. At first she did not know the significance of what she had discovered, but it soon became clear that the oils, extracts, and essences contained in these bottles had remarkable qualities to facilitate perception and self remembering.

Austin Osman Spare, revised edition: The Life and Legend of London's Lost Artist
by Phil BakerA revised edition of Phil Baker&’s critically lauded biography of artist and occultist, Austin Osman Spare.London has harbored many curious characters, but few more curious than the artist and visionary Austin Osman Spare (1886–1956). A controversial enfant terrible of the Edwardian art world, the young Spare was hailed as a genius and a new Aubrey Beardsley, while George Bernard Shaw reportedly said &“Spare&’s medicine is too strong for the average man.&” But Spare was never made for worldly success and he went underground, falling out of the gallery system to live in poverty and obscurity south of the river. Absorbed in occultism and sorcery, voyaging into inner dimensions, and surrounding himself with cats and familiar spirits, he continued to produce extraordinary art while developing a magical philosophy of pleasure, obsession, and the subjective nature of reality. Today Spare is both forgotten and famous, a cult figure whose modest life has been much mythologized since his death. This groundbreaking biographical study offers wide-ranging insights into Spare&’s art, mind and world, reconnecting him with the art history that ignored him and exploring his parallel London; a bygone place of pub pianists, wealthy alchemists, and monstrous owls. This richly readable and illuminating biography takes us deep into the strange inner world that this most enigmatic of artists inhabited, shedding new light while allowing just a few shadowy corners to flourish unspoiled. Revised, updated, and with a new afterword by the author, this is the definitive edition of Phil Baker&’s critically lauded Austin Osman Spare: The Life and Legend of London&’s Lost Artist.

Authentic: How to be yourself and why it matters
by Professor Stephen JosephThe hunger for authenticity guides us throughout our lives. People strive for joined-up living, where on the one hand what they say and do reflects what they think and feel, and on the other what they think and feel reflects who they are.Stephen Joseph has pioneered developments in research into authenticity, drawing on the solid science of positive psychology to develop what has become one of the gold-standard tests for assessing authenticity. His and others' findings reveal that when people are in relationships in which they feel accepted, understood and valued, they drop their defences. They naturally begin to examine themselves psychologically, accommodate new information and live more authentically. What's more, the latest studies reveal that it is authenticity that leads to true happiness.In Authentic, Stephen Joseph presents his fresh and inspiring perspective on the psychology of authenticity alongside practical advice and exercises for the reader. Drawing on the wisdom of existential philosophers, the insights and research of psychologists, and case studies from his own and others' clinical experiences, he shows how authenticity is the foundation of human flourishing - as well as how the ideas relate to debates about the importance of happiness.
