Que el hambre no te devore
by Susan AlbersDomina tu apetito, mejora tu ánimo y tu relación con la comida.

Que venha o crash!
by Richard Stooker João Campos MonteiroO dólar americano oscila à beira da catástrofe. Pela primeira vez na história, a dívida do governo mais poderoso da Terra, que lidera a maior economia do mundo, foi baixada pela Standard & Poors de um Perfeito Triplo AAA para AA. A arrogância política dos Republicanos e Democratas sobre o teto da dívida, fez com que muitos americanos e outras pessoas à volta do mundo duvidassem da nossa liderança. E muita gente acha que o acordo final não foi tão longe quanto deveria ter ido, na redução dos gastos do governo. A dívida do governo dos EUA é agora igual ao Produto Interno Bruto (PIB). A crise financeira de 2007-2009, parece ter sido o primeiro passo em direção a uma depressão deflacionária, que poderia destruir as economias de três gerações de americanos. Estivemos tecnicamente a "recuperar" desde março de 2009, mas, apesar de todas as ações do governo e do Fed para estimular a economia dos EUA, o desemprego continua teimosamente acima de 9%. É esta a previsão, a não ser que a quantidade maciça de dinheiro injetada pelo governo, desencadeie uma onda de hiperinflação. O dólar dos EUA atingiu recentemente novos mínimos face ao iene japonês e ao franco suíço, apesar das massivas intervenções dos bancos centrais dos dois países. A China alienou 97% das suas participações de títulos do Tesouro dos EUA de curto prazo. Isto aconteceu em março de 2011, muito antes da baixa de notação atual. A China ainda detém muitos bilhões de dólares de títulos do Tesouro de longo prazo dos EU e está claramente preocupada com o futuro. Estão a montar um grande espetáculo de apoio à economia Europeia, para que assim tenham uma alternativa ao dólar norte-americano. O que se está a passar connosco, para que o maior país comunista na Terra tenha que nos dar lições sobre a forma de gerir a nossa moeda? Se esses países começassem a vender dólares norte americanos em vez de

Quem Eu Mereço Ser
by Annie Brown Poliana DantasTendo vivido em diversas comunidades, Annie se tornou hábil (capacitou) em observar e tomar a iniciativa em várias conversas sobre o que as pessoas pensam delas mesmas. Ela observou que existem muitos homens, mulheres, meninos e meninas confiantes; no entanto, existem também muitos indivíduos que sofrem de baixa autoestima, e nunca estão satisfeitos consigo mesmos, não importa o que tenham conquistado. Parece haver uma busca para se tornar o que a sociedade projeta como normas aceitáveis; contudo, tais normas são diferentes de acordo com cada cultura e etnia. Cada indivíduo precisa explorar quem eles são e o que Deus quer que eles sejam enquanto fazem sua jornada pela vida. "Quem Eu Mereço Ser" é sobre a contemplação de quem nós somos, em oposição ao que nós pensamos que precisamos ser. A decisão de quem você será é sua, de modo que você pode levar uma vida feliz e produtiva, e não gastando horas inúteis tentando ser quem você entende que será popular com os outros.

Si tu vida te aburre y no sabes cómo remontarla. Si sientes que vives tu soltería esperando. Si quieres fluir y dejar de programarlo todo. Y necesitas creerte lo que vales y darte el permiso para brillar, comerte el mundo y dejar de esperar a que alguien resurja de las tinieblas, te tienda la mano y te rescate cual princesa encerrada en el torreón del castillo. ¿Empezamos? Cartas, posts y microrrelatos para despertar a la mujer granDiosa que hay en ti.

Question Your Thinking, Change the World
by Byron KatieIn this powerful book of quotations, Byron Katie talks about the most essential issues that face us all—love, sex, and relationships; health, sickness, and death; parents and children; work and money; and self-realization. The profound, lighthearted wisdom embodied within is not theoretical; it is absolutely authentic. Not only will this book help you on many specific issues, but it will point you toward your own wisdom and will encourage you to question your own mind, using the four simple yet incredibly powerful questions of Katie’s process of self-inquiry, called The Work. Katie is a living example of the clear, all-embracing love that is our true identity. Because she has thoroughly questioned her own mind, her words shine with the joy of understanding. "People used to ask me if I was enlightened," she says, "and I would say, ‘I don’t know anything about that. I’m just someone who knows the difference between what hurts and what doesn’t.’ I’m someone who wants only what is. To meet as a friend each concept that arose turned out to be my freedom."
