Consider the Lilies: Finding Perfect Peace in the Character of God
by Jonny ArdavanisFind freedom from anxiety as you lift your gaze from the problems and pressures of this world to the changeless and powerful character of your heavenly Father.Is my cancer back? Is my job secure? Will I ever get married? Are my children safe? Our lives are often a chronicle of trouble, pain, and uncertainty--and God's children yearn for peace. Many who wrestle with anxiety and despair know that the Bible calls them to "trust God," but what does that even mean?In Consider the Lilies, pastor, podcaster, and speaker Jonny Ardavanis shows us God's consistent response to those who are worn down by worry and badgered by melancholy: He proclaims His own character. Drawing on that perspective-shifting model, Jonny offers biblical insight on how to ground our thoughts and fix our gaze on who God is.Compassionate, biblical, and timely, Consider the Lilies explores:How dwelling on the character of God is the surest pathway to peaceThe root causes of anxiety and worry in the BibleWhat the Bible says about the integration of our physical and spiritual livesWhy worry grieves God's heart as our Father Consider the Lilies is for those who long for liberation from their anxiety and fear--and desire to deeply know the God they are called and enabled to trust. If you are starved for hope and gasping for peace, consider the character of your heavenly Father, who welcomes all who are anxious, fearful, and melancholy to trust in Him.

Consolation Of Philosophy (Hackett Classics Ser.)
by Boethius Joel C. RelihanEntirely faithful to Boethius' Latin; Relihan's translation makes the philosophy of the Consolation intelligible to readers; it gives equal weight to the poetry--in fact, Relihan's metrical translation of Boethius' metro are themselves contributions of the first moment to Boethian studies. Boethius finally has a translator equal to his prodigious talents and his manifold vision.
Conspirituality: How New Age Conspiracy Theories Became a Health Threat
by Julian Walker Derek Beres Matthew RemskiConspirituality takes a deep dive into the troubling phenomenon of influencers who have curdled New Age spirituality and wellness with the politics of paranoia—peddling vaccine misinformation, tales of child trafficking, and wild conspiracy theories. In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, a disturbing social media trend emerged: a large number of yoga instructors and alt-health influencers were posting stories about a secretive global cabal bent on controlling the world&’s population with a genocidal vaccine. Instagram feeds that had been serving up green smoothie recipes and Mary Oliver poems became firehoses of Fox News links, memes from 4chan, and prophecies of global transformation. Since May 2020, Derek Beres, Matthew Remski and Julian Walker have used their Conspirituality podcast to expose countless facets of the intersection of alt-health practitioners with far-right conspiracy trolls. Now this expansive and revelatory book unpacks the follies, frauds, cons and cults that dominate the New Age and wellness spheres and betray the trust of people who seek genuine relief in this uncertain age. With analytical rigor and irreverent humor, Conspirituality offers an antidote to our times, helping readers recognize wellness grifts, engage with loved ones who've fallen under the influence, and counter lies and distortions with insight and empathy.

Constelaciones familiares para el amor y las parejas
by Ingala RoblEn este libro la doctora Ingala Robl aborda el tema de las constelaciones familiares, ahora con un enfoque especial en la pareja. Éste es un libro sanador y esperanzador, tanto para aquellos que tienen problemas con su pareja, como para aquellos que siguen solos y necesitan saber qué es lo que deben trabajar para encontrar a ese alguien que están buscando. Si en su libro anterior aprendimos a constelar para la prosperidad, en este nuevo libro Ingala Robl nos muestra el camino para constelar por el amor y por el éxito en las relaciones familiares y de pareja. Una vez Bert Hellinger, creador de las constelaciones familiares, dijo lo siguiente acerca de las relaciones de pareja: "Cuando dos personas se enamoran y luego se casan, o viven juntas, en realidad también se unen sus respectivas familias de origen, cada una con una serie de asuntos no resueltos para que la nueva pareja lleve a cabo la tarea de resolverlos". Por eso, muchas veces nuestras relaciones de pareja se ven afectadas por problemas absurdos, sin un motivo aparente, que afectan nuestra relación. Todos esos aspectos que no podemos comprender ni sabemos cómo lidiar, provienen de nuestra familia de origen, y aunque no los hayamos causado nosotros, aunque pertenezcan a generaciones anteriores, siguen ahí y exigen una solución. Éste es un libro sanador y esperanzador, tanto para aquellos que tienen problemas con su pareja, como para aquellos que siguen solos y necesitan saber qué es lo que deben trabajar para encontrar a ese alguien que están buscando.
Constelaciones familiares para la prosperidad y la abundancia
by Ingala RoblEste libro explica lo que es la conciencia de prosperidad y cuáles son sus obstáculos, los adquiridos personalmente y aquellos que nos vienen de la historia familiar. Con ayuda de las constelaciones familiares, Ingala Robl revela aquello que obstaculiza la prosperidad y presenta una solución. Ya sea que se trate de un negocio individual, familiar o una gran empresa, este libro ayuda a relacionar nuestra profesión con nuestra vocación o misión en la vida, a mejorar su calidad para alcanzar el bienestar físico y emocional, y a encontrar la unión entre las dos. El éxito financiero no siempre es resultado de trabajar arduamente. Hay personas capaces de generar prosperidad con un mínimo esfuerzo, mientras que otras nunca lo consiguen. La diferencia es que las primeras tienen conciencia de prosperidad y el trabajo que realizan es la expresión verdadera de sus valores personales y espirituales. Con frecuencia la conciencia de prosperidad se ve bloqueada por nuestra manera de concebir la abundancia material, emocional y espiritual, y enfrentamos obstáculos que responden a intenciones negativas. Muchas creencias limitantes se originan en la infancia, otras vienen de generaciones atrás y están grabadas en la conciencia familiar.

Constellations Systémiques Familiales et Traumatismes: Transformer les expériences traumatisantes de manière guérissante
by Marc BacoSocial Sciences - Relief in traumatic situations Le traumatisme est un événement si grave que la question de l'ordre, des liens et de l'équilibre dans les concessions mutuelles - les trois principaux domaines classiques de la constellation familiale - passe à l'arrière-plan et ne peut généralement être abordée qu'après s'être penché sur le traumatisme. La puissance d'un traumatisme chevauche généralement énergiquement les autres principes de la constellation familiale. L'ignorer et travailler sur l'ordre, par exemple, peut donc s'avérer futile et sans résultat. Dans ce livre, je me réfère au traumatisme en faisant la distinction entre événements ponctuels et événements continuels. Je traite en particulier les traumatismes du développement, même prénatales, qui peuvent affecter toute une vie.
Constructions of Self and Other in Yoga, Travel, and Tourism: A Journey to Elsewhere
by Sonia Sikka Lori G. BeamanThis volume considers the phenomenon of yoga travel as an instance of a broader genre of spiritual travel involving journeys to places elsewhere, which are imagined to offer the possibility of profound personal transformation. These imaginings are tied up in a continued exoticization of the East, but they are not limited to that. Contributors identify various themes such as authenticity, suffering, space, material markers, and the idea of the spiritual, tracing how these ideas manifest in conceptions and fetishizations of elsewhere. To deepen its analysis of this phenomenon, the book incorporates a wide range of disciplines including architecture, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, women s studies, religious studies, and history. While the book s primary focus is yoga and yoga travel, contributors offer up an array of other case studies. Chapters delve into the complex questions of agency and authenticity that accompany the concept of spiritual travel and ideas of elsewhere. "

Constructive Wallowing
by Tina Gilbertson"Constructive wallowing" seems like an oxymoron. Constructive is a good thing, but wallowing is bad.Right?But wait a minute; is it really so terrible to give ourselves a time-out to feel our feelings? Or is it possible that wallowing is an act of loving kindness, right when we need it most?Just about everyone loves the idea of self-compassion -- the notion that maybe in spite of our messy emotions and questionable behavior, we really aren't all that bad. In recent years there's been an explosion of books that encourage readers to stop beating themselves up for being human, which is terrific. Unfortunately, readers who aren't interested in Buddhism or meditation have been left out in the cold. Self-compassion is an everyday habit that everyone can learn, even if they a) aren't particularly spiritual, b) find most books about self-compassion too serious, or else c) have already overdosed on meditation.Constructive Wallowing: How to Beat Bad Feelings by Letting Yourself Have Them is the first book to cut right to the chase, bypassing descriptions of Eastern philosophy and meditation techniques to teach readers exactly how to accept and feel their feelings with self-compassion for greater emotional health and well-being ... while making them laugh from time to time.It seems that the wisdom of "keeping your friends close and your enemies closer" applies to emotions as well as people. It's tempting to turn away from menacing, uncomfortable feelings like anger, grief or regret and treat them like unwanted guests; however, ignoring them just seems to make them stick around. They lurk in the background like punks with switchblades, waiting to pounce as soon as they see an opening.By learning to accept and embrace, rather than suppress, difficult feelings, people can keep their sense of personal power and, better yet, gain greater understanding and ultimately esteem for themselves. Feeling bad can actually lead to feeling better, faster!

Consumed: The Need for Collective Change: Colonialism, Climate Change, and Consumerism
by Aja BarberA call to action for consumers everywhere, Consumed asks us to look at how and why we buy what we buy, how it's created, who it benefits, and how we can solve the problems created by a wasteful system. We live in a world of stuff. We dispose of most of it in as little as six months after we receive it. The byproducts of our quest to consume are creating an environmental crisis. Aja Barber wants to change this--and you can, too. In Consumed, Barber calls for change within an industry that regularly overreaches with abandon, creating real imbalances in the environment and the lives of those who do the work—often in unsafe conditions for very low pay—and the billionaires who receive the most profit. A story told in two parts, Barber exposes the endemic injustices in our consumer industries and the uncomfortable history of the textile industry, one which brokered slavery, racism, and today&’s wealth inequality. Once the layers are peeled back, Barber invites you to participate in unlearning, to understand the truth behind why we consume in the way that we do, to confront the uncomfortable feeling that we are never quite enough and why we fill that void with consumption rather than compassion. Barber challenges us to challenge the system and our role in it. The less you buy into the consumer culture, the more power you have. Consumed will teach you how to be a citizen and not a consumer.
Consumed: The need for collective change; colonialism, climate change & consumerism
by Aja BarberAja Barber wants change. In the 'learning' first half of the book, she will expose you to the endemic injustices in our consumer industries and the uncomfortable history of the textile industry; one which brokered slavery, racism and today's wealth inequality. And how these oppressive systems have bled into the fashion industry and its lack of diversity and equality. She will also reveal how we spend our money and whose pockets it goes into and whose it doesn't (clue: the people who do the actual work) and will tell her story of how she came to learn the truth.In the second 'unlearning' half of the book, she will help you to understand the uncomfortable truth behind why you consume the way you do. She asks you to confront the sense of lack you have, the feeling that you are never quite enough and the reasons why you fill the aching void with consumption rather than compassion. And she makes you challenge this power disparity, and take back ownership of it. The less you buy into the consumer culture the more power you have.CONSUMED will teach you how to be a citizen not a consumer.(p) 2021 Octopus Publishing Group

Consumer Detox: Less Stuff, More Life
by Revd. Mark PowleyConsumerism is everywhere. It shapes the way we eat, shop, rest, think, love and believe. We can’t escape it, but how can we live well in the midst of it? We are daily seduced by a 250 billion dollar marketing machine. But how often do we consider how this might influence us? The current prevailing orthodoxy is that life should be lived to the max. By contrast, Jesus modeled a life of joyful limitation – free to do; free not to do. Consumer Detox, complete with the Detox Diary in the back of the book with suggestions for each chapter, encouraging stories, and space for writing personal reflections, is for those who want to break out of a lifestyle dominated by consumerism and journey toward a richer, simpler, more generous life. Consumer Detox, written out of Mark Powley’s experience of making a change in his own life, is a three part book that will help you break out of the consumer mindset, slow down to enjoy the natural rhythms of life, and live a life of generosity. This book isn’t about living a smaller life but having a bigger vision, which can help you become everything you were made to be.
