Seeing the Light: The Social Logic of Personal Discovery
by Thomas DeglomaThe chorus of the Christian hymn "Amazing Grace" reads, "I once was lost, but now am found, / Was blind but now I see. " Composed by a minister who formerly worked as a slave trader, the song expresses his experience of divine intervention that ultimately caused him to see the error of his ways. This theme of personal awakening is a feature of countless stories throughout history, where the "lost" and the "blind" are saved from darkness and despair by suddenly seeing the light. In "Seeing the Light," Thomas DeGloma explores such accounts of personal awakening, in stories that range from the discovery of a religious truth to remembering a childhood trauma to embracing a new sexual orientation. He reveals a common social pattern: When people discover a life-changing truth, they typically ally with a new community. Individuals then use these autobiographical stories to shape their stances on highly controversial issues such as childhood abuse, war and patriotism, political ideology, human sexuality, and religion. Thus, while such stories are seemingly very personal, they also have a distinctly social nature. Tracing a wide variety of narratives through nearly three thousand years of history, "Seeing the Light" uncovers the common threads of such stories and reveals the crucial, little-recognized social logic of personal discovery.

Seeking Serenity
by Amanda EnayatiIn a provocative and practical look at modern stress, Seeking Serenity offers an empowering new message: Stress can serve as a guide to living our happiest and healthiest lives. In Seeking Serenity, stress columnist Amanda Enayati challenges our long-held assumptions about stress, painting a groundbreaking picture that separates myth from reality when it comes to what is commonly referred to as the plague of modern life. Weaving together stories, research from science, history, philosophy and diverse faiths, and everyday exercises, she crafts a fascinating tale that begins with the behind-the-scenes machinations of corporate villains and ends in the power of our stories to shape our realities.We are living in an era of dramatic highs and lows, with lives that move at a pace and intensity impossible at any other time in history. These contradictions throw us off-kilter, out of harmony and balance, creating what we perceive as never-ending and destructive cycles of stress. But life itself has always been--and will always be--a series of fluctuations: the good days, the bad days, the excruciating days. The key to mastering stress lies in the way we experience it.Seeking Serenity presents ten revolutionary principles developed from the emerging science of stress and reinforced by literature, philosophy and age-old spiritual wisdom that help us to differentiate between destructive and constructive stress, and to master stress in the everyday by learning how to:Shift our perceptions to interpret inevitable challenges in a way that serves us better;Embrace a narrative that casts stress as a pathway to adaptation and growth; andCommit to breaks, buffers, and protective practices that will minimize and neutralize the adverse impacts of toxic stress.Drawing on extensive research and remarkable case studies, Seeking Serenity presents a clear and accessible action plan to achieving more joyful and productive lives, stronger communities and a better world.

After the tragic death of his son, Jordan, the author embarked on a journey for ways to communicate with his son across the veil. He discovered not only successful methods to connect with lost loved ones but also profound truths about the afterlife, the illusion of loss, and how pain is integral to our life purpose.McKay recounts techniques he tried in order to connect with his son, including collecting unusual experiences from family and friends, consulting mediums such as Austyn Wells, undergoing past-life and between-life regressions, engaging in a technique called Induced After-Death Communication, and using channeled writing, which he learned with the help of psychologist Ralph Metzner.The culmination of hundreds of channeled conversations with his son, the author presents revelations about the soul&’s life after death, the structure and key events of the afterlife, how karma works, why we incarnate, our future as souls, and how to love in the face of pain. As Jordan reveals, nothing is truly lost. The soul is constant and, while pain seems to damage us, the damage is an illusion. Because, as Jordan says, &“there is no end; the conversation goes on . . . between all the souls who love each other, living and dead.&”

Seen, Secure, Free: How a Life Hidden with Christ Strengthens and Transforms You

But God's Word offers a powerful and freeing counternarrative: true treasure is actually found in the "hidden" life of Christ.Somewhere along the way, we've confused our level of visibility with our value.

What if there's a different way of living altogether?Seen, Secure, Free unpacks the great promise in Colossians 3:3: "Your life is hidden with Christ in God" and reminds us that when God hides us in himself, he provides a non-negotiable, never-ending source of contentment, identity, and worth.Join Bible teacher Allison Allen as she explores the incredible power of hiddenness in nature, history, and Scripture, which will help you:Let go of the pressure to be recognized and praised by others;Release the resentment that comes from feeling unseen or misunderstood;Find contentment in a loving God who knows you deeply;Find security in a powerful God who establishes your identity, worth, and purpose;Reset your motivations and goals to align with his kingdom; andFeel freed to pursue new adventures with Jesus No more striving to be seen or wondering if you matter; no more pressure to perform or be visible to the world. Instead, rest assured that God truly sees, knows, and loves you more than any person ever could. And let him lead you into the freedom, joy, and transformative power of a life hidden in him.

Segregados: como os solteiros são estereotipados, estigmatizados e ignorados e vivem felizes
by Bella DePaulo Gabriel Borges SantosOs solteiros estão mudando a cara dos Estados Unidos. Você sabia que: * Mais de 40 por cento dos adultos do país---mais de 87 milhões de pessoas---são divorciados, viúvos, ou sempre estiveram solteiros? * Existem mais lares formados por solteiros morando sozinhos do que lares de pais casados e seus filhos? * Atualmente, os americanos passam mais tempo da sua vida adulta solteiros, em vez de casados? Muitos dos solteiros da atualidade têm empregos motivadores, casa própria e uma rede de amigos. Não estamos mais em 1950-- os solteiros podem fazer sexo sem se casarem, e podem criar filhos inteligentes, bem-sucedidos e felizes. Deveria ser um ótimo momento para ser solteiro. Porém, não é raro que os solteiros ainda tenham que defender a maneira como vivem contra um bando de críticas de colegas e parentes preocupados. Pessoas proeminentes na política, na imprensa e intelectuais se revezam para disseminar mitos sobre o casamento e a vida de solteiro. Case-se, eles prometem, e você viverá uma vida longa, cheia de saúde e felicidade, e nunca ficará sozinho(a) novamente. Baseando-se em décadas de pesquisas científicas e em uma vasta coleção de histórias sobre diversos tipos de solteiro, Bella DePaulo desmistifica a vida de solteiro---e mostra que praticamente tudo que você já ouviu sobre os benefícios do casamento e sobre os perigos de ficar solteiro é grosseiramente exagerado ou simplesmente errado. Embora os solteiros sejam isolados com um tratamento injusto no trabalho, no mercado de consumo e na estrutura federal tributária, eles não são simplesmente vítimas da solteirofobia. Os solteiros estão vivendo mesmo felizes para sempre. Contando com uma mistura adequada de doses de verdade com uma boa pitada de humor, Singled Out é um livro provacativo e entusiasmante para os solteiros, os casados e todas as outras pessoas em outros tipos de relacionamento e arranjos familiares.

Segunda opinión: 8 enfermedades mortales
by Radha GopalanDescubre cómo combinar la medicina occidental y oriental para aumentar tu salud y bienestar, y cambia así tu percepción dela medicina para siempre La mayoría de la gente estaría de acuerdo en que no se nos enseña mucho acerca del «bienestar». Y aunque parece haber mayor conciencia relacionada con la salud física, a menudo sólo pensamos en salud o médicos cuando estamos enfermos . Lo que queda entre esos dos extremos es una lucha a lo largo de toda la vida para mantenerse saludable y productivo en un mundo de mensajes médicos mixtos.El doctor Gopalan combina su educación y experiencia en la medicina oriental y occidental para ver la salud y el bienestar desde una perspectiva única y poderosa. No sólo ofrece conceptos e ideas que pueden cambiar la forma de pensar sobre la salud y el bienestar, también evalúa las afecciones médicas más comunes que afectan nuestro mundo, desde la obesidad y el cáncer hasta las enfermedades pulmonares, hepáticas, renales y cardiacas. En Segunda opinión, el doctor Gopalan explica: - Cómo la medicina oriental y occidental pueden trabajar en conjunto para lograr salud y bienestar óptimos. - Cómo Tu Poder puede moldear tu personalidad, tus reacciones, tu salud y tu felicidad. - Por qué algunas personas que comen sano, hacen ejercicio y llevan un estilo de vida saludable pueden sufrir un ataque cardiaco. - Cómo estar sano tiene más que ver con quién eres que con qué haces «Al igual que aquellos a quienes les enseño, yo también aprendo y crezco. Reconozco que alcanzar la verdadera felicidad significa ir más allá de una misión de bienestar financiero, que implica una misión de bienestar completo: en la salud y en el bienestar, en el despertar espiritual, la filantropía y el propósito de vida. En pocas palabras, una vida rica.» ROBERT T. KIYOSAKI, autor de Padre Rico, Padre Pobre
Segundo YO
by Antonio AlmasUna autoscopia sobre la realidad de la vida y la asunción de uno mismo. Y así ha llegado el momento del silencio, algún día tendría que venir, porque demasiadas palabras sacuden tu cabeza, demasiada conversación drena tu mente, disuelve tus sentidos y te distrae de lo esencial. Sé que intenté escapar, que no quería aceptar la soledad y la ausencia de ruido. Luché por quedarme con los demás, ser como ellos, muchos amigos, muchas fiestas y mucha alegría, pero no era así. Era un niño callado, silencioso que siempre estaba en su esquina, encerrado en su mundo, silencioso, escondido dentro de su cerebro. Nunca tuve una habilidad especial para la exposición pública, aunque tengo cierta capacidad para la argumentación, cuando experimenté las artes de la política, me sentí incómodo con la mentira, la necesidad de estar constantemente bajo los ojos de las masas, bajo el escrutinio de los demás. Nunca me gustó realmente ser examinado. No sé si por miedo, sí, siempre fui muy miedoso, miedo de no ser capaz, incapacidad de ser tan bueno como los demás. Siempre los otros en un término comparativo, al final así es el mundo, descubriendo diferencias entre unos y otros, compitiendo para superar a los demás en lugar de ayudarse mutuamente. En resumen, un joven con complejos de inferioridad solo puede producir un adulto inseguro que, a pesar de su tenacidad para vivir una vida independiente y pagar sus cuentas, ha dejado de lado algunas debilidades que aparentemente no eran tan obvias, pero igualmente serias, tan serias como aquellos que no pueden gobernarse a sí mismos y construir una vida sólida y estable.
Seiki Jutsu: The Practice of Non-Subtle Energy Medicine
by Bradford Keeney Hillary KeeneyA guide to the ancient Japanese art of working with concentrated life-force energy, seiki, for self-healing, revitalization, and creativity • Explains how to awaken seiki, guiding you through the stages of seiki development • Details how to develop your own daily practice for self-healing and renewal as well as providing exercises to infuse your everyday activities with seiki • Includes many inspiring stories from the authors’ decades of healing work Seiki jutsu is the ancient Japanese shamanic art of working with seiki, concentrated life-force energy, for self-healing, revitalization, creativity, and inspiration. Known in Tantra as kundalini and to the Kalahari Bushmen as n/om, seiki has been called “activated and strengthened chi” and is often described as a “non-subtle” energy because it is strongly felt when awakened. Centering on spontaneity of movement to gather and transmit seiki, the practice of seiki jutsu does not require years of training or endless memorization of forms. Once you have received seiki, your daily practice will teach you to activate the flow of this powerful energy to recharge your body, mind, and spirit and empower you to find your unique destiny. Renowned seiki jutsu masters Bradford and Hillary Keeney detail the history and lineage of seiki jutsu beginning in 8th-century Japan and reveal how this ancient practice was used by the samurai. The authors show how seiki underlies the “flow experience” sought after by artists, musicians, athletes, and performers of all types. They explain how to recognize the awakening of seiki, guiding you through the stages of seiki development with stories of healings they have participated in or witnessed. They reveal how to develop your own daily practice for self-healing and renewal as well as provide active exercises to discover your life’s purpose, infuse your everyday activities with seiki, and motivate yourself to create a fulfilling life. They show that no method of performance, spiritual practice, or philosophy of life can fully awaken unless you are instilled with sufficient seiki. Regarded in Japan as “the fountain of youth,” seiki jutsu provides a way to bring maximum vitality into every aspect of life.
