The Top Ten Lies We Tell Ourselves: And How to Stop Living Them
by Dr Dana MarroccoIf laughter is the best medicine for physical illness, imagine what it might do for spiritual ailments. Educational psychologist and "self-help stand-up comedian" Dana Marrocco explores this idea in her first book, a work inspired by A Course in Miracles. Dr. Dana explains that the ego — the fear-soaked part of our mind — is happiest when we try to do everything it asks, even when it makes little sense. Following in the footsteps of Marianne Williamson, Gerald R. Jampolsky, M.D., and Gabrielle Bernstein, she uses both humor and a solid base of academic and practical knowledge to expose these hidden and harmful messages that, far too often, we blindly accept as true.Recommending a gentle, light hearted "roasting" of our self-deceptions, Dr. Dana tackles ten of the typical ego lies. Each of the ten lies comes with a twenty-four-hour challenge: to refrain from acting on or believing it for one day. With the rare, deft touch of someone who has actually tested her spiritual studies against everyday challenges, Dr. Dana offers a trustworthy, down-to-earth guide to recognizing the typical lies we all tell ourselves—and how to stop believing them."One of the keys to happiness is remembering to laugh, and Dr. Dana reminds us frequently of how to do that in The Top Ten Lies We Tell Ourselves. She's not just joking around, though, because she knows her stuff. She connects the most important principles of A Course in Miracles to her knowledge of psychology and then makes it clear that she's really used both in her own life. After this book, lying to myself won't be such a big deal anymore!" — Maria Felipe, author, Live Your Happy"Dr. Dana Marrocco's beautifully written guide through the ego's biggest lies is a heavenly compass for spiritual progress. Grounded in psychology and academic research, The Top Ten Lies We Tell Ourselves invites the reader to walk through an internal process of compassionate self-awareness to turn our fearful perceptions on their heads and return to a high-voltage perception of love. Dr. Dana's series of exercises takes us beyond the limitations of our conditioning and fear-based mental hooks to a brighter experience of life." — Lyna Rose, author, Enlighten Your Life"The Top Ten Lies We Tell Ourselves is a humorous look at the upside-down, fearful thought system of the ego part of our mind. By exposing our most common but not-so-obvious beliefs, this book will help you shift your mind to a right-side-up way of thinking, thereby freeing your mind from fear and setting you on a path of peace. The exercises throughout facilitate this awakening, and the twenty-four-hour challenges are brilliant!" — Corinne Zupko, EdS, author of From Anxiety to Love"Open this book, begin to read, and see if you can't find the truth, which will make you free. According to A Course in Miracles, we do not perceive our own best interests and need clarity to better understand what those interests are. This is an overall theme in Dr. Dana's conscientiously written book, reinforcing the practice of looking inward with total honesty to experience the happiness we deserve." — Jon Mundy, PhD, author, Living A Course in Miracles"Dr. Dana's voice speaks to me exactly where it helps most. She points to the hidden traps I have fallen into and how I can reverse my addictive beliefs that led me down the rabbit hole. The reader can easily identify with the 'ten lies' we grew up with, mistakes that weakens us, and will persist until we change our mind. I recommend this book to anyone who chooses to see things differently and stop living the mistakes of the past." — H. David Fishman, author, Into Oneness
Total Life Cleanse: A 28-Day Program to Detoxify and Nourish the Body, Mind, and Soul
by Jonathan GlassA comprehensive guide to the integrated detox of body, mind, and spirit • Presents a practical 28-day plant-based program, divided into four cycles, to initiate and maximize physical, mental, and spiritual detoxification • Integrates the ancient wisdom of yoga, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine with naturopathic principles and contemporary nutritional science • Provides plant-based smoothie and meal recipes, tips on liver health and healthy elimination, exercise and yoga practices, breathing and meditation techniques to address toxic thought patterns, and Karma/Forgiveness cleansing rituals Integrating the ancient wisdom of yoga, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine with naturopathic principles and contemporary nutritional science, Jonathan Glass, M.Ac., C.A.T., presents a practical 28-day program, divided into four cycles, designed to initiate and maximize detoxification of your body, mind, and spirit from the harmful effects of the modern lifestyle. Glass reveals the interconnectedness of what we consume, both mentally and nutritionally, emphasizing that cleansing of the body alone will offer only a temporary solution if we do not also apply the same cleansing principles to our thoughts and actions. He provides delicious plant-based smoothie and meal recipes, step-by-step instructions to resolve blockages and stagnation in the physical or emotional body, including tips on liver health and healthy elimination, guidance on how to cleanse the proliferation of toxic thought patterns in the mind, as well as outlining a supportive Karma/Forgiveness cleanse ritual to detoxify the spirit. He explains how the soul is encased in five coverings, known as Koshas, and details how to harmonize all five Koshas through a plant-based diet, exercise, yoga, breathing techniques, and meditation/introspective practices. Citing wisdom from teachers he has revered over the years and sages past and present, as well as teachings from the Vedas and other ancient texts, Glass reinforces that how we eat, think, and live directly impacts our health in body, mind, spirit, and our relationships. He also shows how the principles of the Total Life Cleanse inherently support the environment. By empowering you with a new way of thinking, seeing, and being, the Total Life Cleanse program allows you not only to heal yourself by changing your life patterns but also to heal others, as we foster a deeper connection to the life that surrounds us and ultimately the universe.
Touching the Dragon: And Other Techniques for Surviving Life's Wars
by Christian D'Andrea James HatchFrom former special ops Navy SEAL senior chief; master naval parachutist (four Bronze Stars with Valor, Navy and Marine Corps Medal recipient, etc.); fighter in 150 missions (Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia, Africa); expert military dog trainer and handler whose SEAL dogs were partners and medal winners--a fierce, moving tale of a return from hell, being badly wounded on a special ops mission that ended his two-decades-long military career, his searing recovery, and the struggle to live life off the speeding train of war.In Touching the Dragon, James Hatch, Naval Special Warfare Operator, expert commando, tactical master in deadly operations, twenty-four years in service to his country (he enlisted in the Army National Guard at age seventeen), writes of his years of military service, from joining the Navy at eighteen, becoming a SEAL, to his joining the Naval Special Warfare Development group ("If I died in a gunfight, it would be doing something I loved"). He writes of the harrowing secret missions (Iraq, Bosnia, Africa); and of the fateful final mission (Afghanistan), that left him badly shot (a bullet exploding through his femur and out the back of his leg) as Hatch and his SEAL team crew were attempting to rescue a rogue soldier--Pvt. Bowe Bergdahl, who deserted his post, was captured by Al Qaida and Taliban militants, and was set to be smuggled to a part of the world where Americans could never reach him. Hatch writes of the horrific wound to his leg; of having no choice but to end his military career; of coming home to the country he'd spent his life defending; of the ordeal of getting well physically (eighteen surgeries; twelve months of recovery; learning to walk again); of having to find out who he was as a man apart from the chaotic world of special operations missions; of days and months of despair, alcoholism, the pull toward suicide; and of finally, through love of family, friends, soldiers, and his specially trained military dogs, touching the dragon, of going through the fear of feeling unfit for society, of finding a purpose and a way back to life.

Treating People Well: The Extraordinary Power of Civility at Work and in Life
by Lea Berman Jeremy Bernard'Lea and Jeremy’s stories from the White House are not only fascinating, but reveal lessons about the ways we treat one another that can be applied universally. No matter your beliefs, background or what you do for a living, there are takeaways from this book that will make each of us better human beings. By focusing on the things that unite us – love, kindness and empathy – Treating People Well has the power to change the world for the better.' Karlie Kloss, supermodel and founder of Kode With Klossy 'Treating People Well is an essential guide for getting along and getting ahead in our world today. Authors Lea Berman and Jeremy Bernard show us how people from opposite ends of the political spectrum and all walks of life can build relationships, earn trust, and succeed by treating others with civility and respect. Full of life lessons that are both timely and timeless, this is a book that will be devoured, bookmarked, and read over and over again.' John McCain, United States Senator 'I loved this book! Yes, as promised in the title, it shows you the value of treating people well and gives expert advice, but that is only part of it. The two authors – both former White House Social Secretaries in different administrations – provide fascinating glimpses of what’s behind the scenes at the White House. You’ll learn a lot while being vastly entertained.' Joan Ganz Cooney, founder, Sesame StreetWritten by two former White House Social Secretaries, Treating People Well is a guide to developing social skills in order to build more successful relationships. Using their unique access, the authors describe the behaviours that shape how an individual is perceived. While manners and etiquette may not seem relevant in today’s technology-burdened, politically contentious world, modern life has caused many people to feel disconnected and uncomfortable in their interactions with others. This essential book gives readers the tools to live each day more positively, forging connections based on trust and mutual respect. The authors offer advice such as how to develop confidence, be consistent, use humour, listen carefully, radiate calm, resolve conflicts quickly, be honest but never cruel, cultivate loyalty, own your mistakes, work with difficult people, and attend to details, whether in the office or at home, dealing with friends or colleagues, as a student, a new employee or an experienced executive. Working in the most charged workplace possible, Lea and Jeremy honed these skills over years, striving to apply kindness, empathy and genuine caring to achieve success.
Las tres preguntas: Cómo descubrir y dominar el poder de tu interior
by Don Miguel Ruiz Barbara EmrysEn Los cuatro acuerdos, don Miguel Ruiz introduce a los buscadores en la senda a la iluminación a los principios de la cultura espiritual mesoamericana: los antiguos toltecas. En este libro nos adentra en las prácticas de los nativos americanos, y nos pide que consideremos algunas preguntas esenciales que rigen nuestras vidas y gobiernan nuestro poder espiritual. Tres preguntas eternas pueden guiarnos a descubrir nuestro poder y usarlo juiciosamente:•¿Quién soy?•¿Qué es lo real?•¿Cómo expreso amor?En cada etapa de nuestras vidas debemos hacernos estas preguntas sencillas pero muy profundas. El encontrar las respuestas nos abrirá las puertas a la siguiente etapa en nuestro crecimiento y finalmente nos conducirá a nuestro yo, completo y verdadero. Pero, como aclara don Miguel Ruiz, si no hacemos estas preguntas –o si no prestamos atención a las respuestas– seremos nosotros quienes sufriremos, porque nunca conseguiremos actuar según nuestro poder o lo usaremos para destrucción. Solo cuando el poder esté ligado a nuestra identidad, podrá estar alineado con el universo y ser de verdadero provecho para nosotros y para los demás. Las tres preguntas anteriores proveen un marco práctico que permite a los lectores involucrarse con el mensaje transformador de Ruiz y actuar como un medio para vencer el temor y la ansiedad, y hallar la paz interior. Como una guía fundamental para todos los buscadores que persiguen el autoconocimiento, el entendimiento y la aceptación, este libro es el próximo paso en nuestra metamorfosis espiritual singular.

We create our experiences based on the words we say and the thoughts we think. When we create peace and harmony in our minds and think positive thoughts, we will attract positive experiences and like-minded people to us. In essence, what I'm saying is that what we believe about ourselves and about Life becomes true for us."

Turning the Tide on Plastic: How Humanity (And You) Can Make Our Globe Clean Again
by Lucy SiegleEnough plastic is thrown away every year to circle the world 4 times More than 8 million tonnes of plastic enter the oceans each year 300 million tonnes of new plastic is produced every year An estimated 15-51 trillion pieces of plastic now litter the world's oceans 38.5 million plastic bottles are used every day in the UK A million plastic bottles are used per minute around the world 500 million plastic straws are used per year Without big action, at the current rate, pieces of plastic will outnumber fish in the ocean by 2050. That is the legacy we are leaving our children and grandchildren. Plastic flows into our lives from every direction and most of it is not recycled. Instead it is incinerated or ends up in landfill, where it will sit for hundreds of years, or enters the world's seas where it fragments into tiny pieces to become microplastics - the environmental scourge of our times. Many of us had assumed that governments, brands and waste authorities were dealing with plastic on our behalf. But the impact of shows such as Blue Planet along with national beach cleans and high-profile campaigns have resulted in a collective wake-up call. If there were plans and strategies, they have not worked as we imagined. It would be easy to feel despondent but instead we need to turn our anger and emotion into action, starting by making a big dent in our own enormous consumption. Turning the tide on Plastic is here just in time. Journalist, broadcaster and eco lifestyle expert Lucy Siegle provides a powerful call to arms to end the plastic pandemic along with the tools we need to make decisive change. It is a clear-eyed, authoritative and accessible guide to help us to take decisive and effective personal action. Because this matters. When it comes to single-use plastics, we are habitual users, reaching out for plastic water bottles, disposable coffee cups, plastic straws and carrier bags multiple times a day. If only 12 of us adopt Lucy's 'reduce, rethink, refill, refuse' approach, we could potentially ditch 3K-15K single items of plastic in a year. When we consider our power as influencers - whether at school, the hairdressers, at work or on the bus - we suddenly become part of something significant.

Turning the Tide on Plastic: How Humanity (And You) Can Make Our Globe Clean Again
by Lucy SiegleEnough plastic is thrown away every year to circle the world 4 timesMore than 8 million tonnes of plastic enter the oceans each year300 million tonnes of new plastic is produced every year An estimated 15-51 trillion pieces of plastic now litter the world's oceans 38.5 million plastic bottles are used every day in the UKA million plastic bottles are used per minute around the world500 million plastic straws are used per yearPlastic flows into our lives from every direction and most of it is not recycled. Instead it is incinerated or ends up in landfill, where it will sit for hundreds of years, or enters the world's seas where it fragments into tiny pieces to become microplastics - the environmental scourge of our times. Without big action, at the current rate, pieces of plastic will outnumber fish in the ocean by 2050. That is the legacy we are leaving our children and grandchildren.Turning the tide on Plastic is here just in time. Journalist, broadcaster and eco lifestyle expert Lucy Siegle provides a powerful call to arms to end the plastic pandemic along with the tools we need to make decisive change. It is a clear-eyed, authoritative and accessible guide to help us to take decisive and effective personal action. If only 12 of us adopt Lucy's 'reduce, rethink, refill, refuse' approach, we could potentially ditch 3K-15K single items of plastic in a year. When we consider our power as influencers - whether at school, the hairdressers, at work or on the bus - we suddenly become part of something significant. So now is the time to speak up, take action and demand the change you want to see in the ocean, in the supermarket aisles and on the streets.

Uhrautumisen Voima
by Gabriel AgboUhrautumiset ovat tehokkaita. Erittäin tehokkaita! Rikkain mies, vahvin mies, kaikkein siunatuimmat miehet ja naiset, viisaimmat, mahtavin kuningas, kaikkein vaikutusvaltaisimmat profeetat olivat uhrautuvia miehiä ja naisia. He antoivat kaiken, riskeerasivat kaiken kansansa vuoksi, inhimillisyyden ja Jumalan vuoksi saavuttaakseen tavoitteensa ja urotyönsä, josta jopa ikuisuus olisi ylpeä. Jos haluat tulla mahtavaksi, sinun täytyy ensin tulla uhrautuvaksi mieheksi/naiseksi. Kaikki on mahdollista niille, jotka pystyvät maksamaan hinnan. Tulet huomaamaan näiden hyvin paljastavien lukujen - Uhrautumisen Voima, Uhraa Vain Omasi, Kuljen Egyptin Kautta, Maksan Hinnan, Seuraa Minua! Tulimme Sinun Vuoksi, Minä suojelen Sinua, Keitä Viimeinen Ateria, Pelastamisen Voima, Ylistäminen, Rukous ja Paasto. Emme ole vain keskustelleet Raamatun suurten miesten ja naisten uhrauksista ja kuinka heidän tekonsa tekivät heistä suuria, vaan myös sellaisista ihmisistä kuin Israelin 'Yoni' Netanyahu; nuori israelilainen, joka johti kommandoyksikköä pelastamaan juutalaiset panttivangit, joita pidettiin Entebben lentokentällä heidän koneensa tultua kaapatuksi ja ohjatuksi Ugandaan vuonna 1976. Katselimme myös joitakin meidän sotasankareita, erityisesti Erikoisjoukkojen - kuten SEAL, Delta -yksikkö. Nämä miehet antoivat kaikkensa, riskeerasivat jatkuvasti kaiken, myös elämänsä puolustaakseen kansaansa ja inhimillisyyttä. He uhrasivat elämänsä suojellakseen muita. Jeesus sanoi, että suurin uhraus ihmiselle on, että antaa oman henkensä toisten vuoksi. Me osoitamme kunnioituksemme heille. He opettavat meille mitä uhrautumisen pitäisi olla. Jeesus kertoi, että mikä uhraus on suurempi kuin mies, joka antaa henkensä ystäviensä vuoksi? Me ylistämme heidän rohkeuttaan ja äärimmäistä isänmaallisuutta. Tässä, me opimme uskon uhrauksista, ystävällisyydestä, isänmaallisuudesta, rukouksesta, paastoamisesta ja ylistämisest�

Um presente de família
by Marta GirónEm muitas ocasiões nos acontecem coisas que não sabemos explicar, situações que nos causam dor porque não conseguimos compreendê-las. Muitas vezes, chegamos a colocar a culpa da nossa infelicidade no destino. Mas, o quê aconteceria se tudo não passasse de um "presente" que fosse transmitido de geração a geração para curar alguém além de nossos ancestrais? O quê aconteceria se tudo não passasse de fruto de experiências passadas, de nossa memória transgeracional? O quê aconteceria se as dores físicas trouxessem uma mensagem passível de decodificação? Ou se nos tornássemos conscientes de todas essas experiências e nos curássemos? Nos sentiríamos livres? Recuperaríamos nossa saúde? Retomaríamos nosso caminho com novos objetivos? Este livro está baseado em uma história real, nas experiências da própria autora e circunstâncias da sua vida que ela não conseguia entender, mas sabia que não eram fortuitas. Aqui, será possível acompanhar seus avanços num caminho nunca antes imaginado. Un caminho condicionado pelas influências dos padrões herdados da energia ancestral de seu clã.

Un cadeau de la famille
by Marta GirónLe premier roman qui traite des répercussions de notre héritage énergétique Très souvent il nous arrive des choses que nous ne savons expliquer, des situations qui nous font souffrir parce que nous ne les comprenons pas. Nous en arrivons même à accuser le destin de notre malheur ou notre tristesse, de notre maladie ou celle d'un être cher, de nos carences ou limitations. Mais, que se passerait-il si tout cela était un cadeau qui se transmet de génération en génération pour soigner quelqu'un d'autre pour nos ancêtres ? Que se passerait-il si nos expériences étaient le fruit d'expériences passées, de notre mémoire transgénérationnelle ? Que se passerait-il si les troubles physiques apportaient un message qui peut être biodécodé ? Que se passerait-il si nous devenions conscient de toutes ces expériences et si nous soignions nos problèmes? Nous sentirions-nous libres ? Récupérerions-nous notre santé ? Reconduirions-nous notre chemin et trouverions-nous de nouveaux objectifs ? Ce livre est basé sur une histoire réelle, sur les expériences de l'auteure elle-même par rapport aux circonstances de sa vie qu'elle ne réussissait pas à comprendre mais dont elle savait qu'elles n'étaient pas fortuites. Avec elle, vous pourrez voir comment elle a avancé sur un chemin que jamais elle n'aurait imaginé, entourée et conditionnée par les influences des schémas hérités de l'énergie ancestrale de son clan.
Un-Settling: How to Help Your Kids by Making and Modeling an Amazing Life After Divorce
by Maggie McReynoldsUn-Settling speaks to mothers and their children who have settled enough already to mothers whose marriage they'd settled for no longer worked, who took a big leap and resolved to build something better for their kids. But somewhere along the way, the anxiety over whether the kids are going to be okay has disconnected mothers from the fierce Warrior Mama who made that brave choice. Certified life coach Maggie McReynolds encourages mothers to take heart. Divorce is awful, but its aftermath is one of the richest opportunities mothers can ever be given to redefine themselves, dream big dreams, and make bold, life-defining choices about who they are, how they want to parent, and what they want to model for your kids. With the exhilarating fresh-start boldness of Under the Tuscan Sun and the tender, wry wisdom of Anne Lamott's Operating Instructions, Un-Settling guides mothers how to create the post-divorce life they've been longing for.
Unafraid: Living with Courage and Hope in Uncertain Times (Unafraid Ser.)
by Adam HamiltonFear is a complex emotion. Sometimes it saves us. More often it robs us of the life we want. But we can take our lives back. You'd be hard-pressed to overstate the extent to which fear, anxiety, and worry permeate our lives today. Fear wreaks havoc on our relationships and communities. It leads us into making bad decisions. It holds us back from the very pursuits that promise fulfillment and joy. Making matters worse, not a week goes by when some new threat or calamity isn't dominating the headlines. Why are there so many tragedies? we wonder. What will happen next?As the senior pastor of a large, diverse church in America's heartland, Adam Hamilton has seen the cost of fear up close. When he surveyed his congregation on how fear affects them, 2,400 people responded--and what they said was eye-opening. Eighty percent admitted to living with moderate or significant levels of fear.Unafraid: Living with Courage and Hope in Uncertain Times is Reverend Hamilton's insightful and impassioned response. Drawing on recent research, inspiring real-life examples, and fresh biblical insight, Hamilton shows how to untangle the knots we feel about disappointing others, failure, financial insecurity, loneliness, insignificance, and aging. Then he helps readers understand and counter fears related to such outsize perils as terrorism, death, and the apocalypse.Writing with generosity and intelligence, Hamilton shows how believer and unbeliever alike can develop sustaining spiritual practices and embrace Jesus's recurring counsel: "Do not be afraid." For anyone struggling with fear or wondering how families and communities can thrive in troubled times, Unafraid offers an informed and inspiring message full of practical solutions.
Unbound: Finding Freedom from Unrealistic Expectations of Motherhood
by Jamie SumnerIn UNBOUND, JAMIE SUMNER helps women who are struggling with the pressures of motherhood find comfort, hope and companionship by detailing her own difficult journey and highlighting women of the Bible who triumphed in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.Women, especially Christian women, do not talk enough about the reality of motherhood: the enormous struggles it takes to get there, the loneliness of it, the unspoken or unmet expectations. We are often too afraid, ashamed, or unwilling to share our stories of disillusionment or pain. We quietly absorb the posts of sonograms and happily messy houses on Facebook as we inwardly wonder what's the matter with us. We listen to friends coo about their child's latest success as we watch our own terrorize their sibling or scream for an hour. We struggle to raise kids with special needs, physical disabilities, and social challenges, caught by surprise that this is what motherhood looks like.With honesty and vulnerability, JAMIE SUMNER walks readers through each chapter of her own journey to motherhood through infertility and special needs parenting and pairs it with that of a woman in the Bible so that readers can find comfort, hope, companionship and honesty rooted in biblical truths.The book is broken into four parts: The Wanting, The Waiting, The Getting and The Appreciating. UNBOUND will share the heartbreak of infertility and offer encouragement from someone who has had to wait for the fulfillment of motherhood; detail the specifics of infertility treatments, miscarriage, and raising special needs children through a Christian lens; honestly discuss the expectations versus the reality of being a mother; and highlight specific biblical women in each chapter who did not fit the expectations of their times through verses, scriptural anecdotes and guiding questions.UNBOUND shows you through Scripture how to be thankful for each step wherever it leads. Happiness is found as we release into His hands our own well-laid plans for His better, and more beautiful one, no matter how different it may look from what we first imagined.
Unbroken Faith: Spiritual Recovery for the Special Needs Parent
by Diane Dokko KimWhen a parent hears that their child has a disability, hearts and hopes are often broken. But faith doesn’t have to be. In Unbroken Faith, Dianne Dokko Kim comes alongside you as a fellow special needs parent to help you reconcile the premise of a good God with the devastating realities of raising a disabled child. Kim courageously articulates deep-seated, unspoken doubts and fears you may have but are afraid to voice: Will my child still have a full life? Can I do this? Where is God in all this? As you are adjusting to your new normal, Kim’s biblical-based encouragement will help you understand that you are not alone, that God gets it, and that God’s Word is entirely relevant to the raw and messy yet hallowed spaces of special needs parenting.
Unconditional Love: A Guide to Navigating the Joys and Challenges of Being a Grandparent Today
by Jane IsayA beautiful meditation on the joys of being a grandparent and a practical guide to help you and your adult children make the most of your relationship with a grandchild.For many grandparents, a grandchild offers a second chance to become the parent they didn’t have the time or the energy to be when raising their own children. Being a grandparent, family relationships expert Jane Isay argues, is the opportunity to turn missed opportunities into delight.Drawing on her personal experience, dozens of interviews, and the latest findings in psychology, Isay shows how a grandparent can use his or her unique perspective and experience to create a deep and lasting bond that will echo throughout a grandchild’s life. She explores the realities of today’s multigenerational families, identifying problems and offering solutions to enhance love, trust, and understanding between grandparents, parents, and grandchildren. She also offers a wealth of practical advice, from when to get involved, when to stay away, and how to foster a strong relationship when you’re separated by long distance.Unconditional Love advocates for honest conversation, thinking in the long run and healing breaches in order to be together, understanding that most of us try to do our best and need to be forgiven if we fail. Isay argues that secrets and surprises may tilt the boat but won’t necessarily sink it and that grandparents and their grown children are happier when they give each other the benefit of the doubt. Most importantly, she writes, the advent of grandchildren offers families the opportunity for healing and redemption—if we seize the moment. In lovely prose and through delightful stories, Isay shows us how we can.A great gift for grandparents-to-be and a wonderful resource for all, Unconditional Love is a beautiful and psychologically astute look at what it means to be an engaged grandparent.
Under Construction: Navigating the Detours on the Road to Recovery
by Dug McGuirkThis so called "life" is a journey and it doesn't matter who you are—you are special and unique with something to offer and enjoy, period. The obstacles and detours the roads present are not any easier in one car or another; it just boils down to how you navigate your way through and around them. One of McGuirk's key principles centers on the concept of State, i.e. your state of mind, how you feel. State is the emotional fuel you want to fill up on--the things or experiences that make you feel good. Most people have been fueling up the wrong way their entire life and their state is not what it ought to be. They fill up on poor quality emotions then spend their lives trying to escape important things because they can't find a way to derive pleasure from them. One of the worst things people fill up on is alcohol and drugs—sure it helps temporarily, but it doesn't take long before they're coughing and sputtering on the exit ramp and nothing works for them any more—they're feeling guilty, unfulfilled, empty. Fueling up the right way is what successful people do—they fill up with it first thing in the morning, every day of their lives. They create their own happiness because they know that by feeling great, it will be easier to attain the abundance and success they really want. For the millions of people fueled on desperation, broken down and in need of repair, Under Construction is a shop. It is the place to learn how to give yourself a tune-up. McGuirk provides all the tools you need to keep from struggling on the road, but ultimately, it's your shop—you are the mechanic. If you're ready and willing to turn your world around and start really enjoying your life journey, Under Construction is the perfect guide. Quit pushing your rusting old car around and start taking laps in the winner's circle—with McGuirk navigating, you CAN do it!

Undivided: Coming Out, Becoming Whole, and Living Free from Shame
by Vicky BeechingVicky Beeching, called “arguably the most influential Christian of her generation” in The Guardian, began writing songs for the church in her teens. By the time she reached her early thirties, Vicky was a household name in churches on both sides of the pond. Recording multiple albums and singing in America’s largest megachurches, her music was used weekly around the globe and translated into numerous languages.But this poster girl for evangelical Christianity lived with a debilitating inner battle: she was gay. The tens of thousands of traditional Christians she sang in front of were unanimous in their view – they staunchly opposed same-sex relationships and saw homosexuality as a grievous sin. Vicky knew if she ever spoke up about her identity it would cost her everything.Faced with a major health crisis, at the age of thirty-five she decided to tell the world that she was gay. As a result, all hell broke loose. She lost her music career and livelihood, faced threats and vitriol from traditionalists, developed further health issues from the immense stress, and had to rebuild her life almost from scratch.But despite losing so much she gained far more: she was finally able to live from a place of wholeness, vulnerability, and authenticity. She finally found peace. What’s more, Vicky became a champion for others, fighting for LGBT equality in the church and in the corporate sector. Her courageous work is creating change in the US and the UK, as she urges people to celebrate diversity, live authentically, and become undivided.
Unexpected: Leave Fear Behind, Move Forward in Faith, Embrace the Adventure
by Christine CaineIs it possible to have peace in an uncertain world? To not only expect the unexpected but embrace it?Most of us want to have life under control. But God wants us to anticipate the unexpected with a faith deeply rooted in his goodness. He wants us to know that because he is in control, we don’t have to be.In Unexpected, beloved author Christine Caine helps us walk into the life God has for us—unknowns and all. Using dramatic examples from her own journey, Christine offers real-life strategies and biblical inspiration to help us move from fear and worry about ourselves to hope and trust in God. As we learn new ways to manage disappointment, strengthen our hearts, and build our faith, we can enjoy a new adventure with God that is more fulfilling than any day we spend trying to anticipate what will happen next.Stepping into our God-given destiny means stepping into the unknown, but we can embrace that calling because God knows it already. Nothing in our lives takes God by surprise. So even in the midst of personal upheaval, relational challenges, financial stresses, family transitions, career disappointments, and chaotic world affairs, we can expect God to be good and do good. What other expectation do we need to have? Listen to God’s dare to trust him in every unknown of your life today.

Feeling the red, heart-shaped urgency intensify as the years roll on by? Oh hi! You're in the right place.Over half of Brits aged 25-44 are now single.

Unlocking the 7 Secret Powers of the Heart: A Practical Guide to Living in Trust and Love
by Shai TubaliAn invitation to discover and develop your heart powers and tap into heart energy • Features accessible yet profound wisdom about the power of the heart and approaches for tapping into heart energy • Reveals that the heart, often perceived as our most vulnerable and fragile place, is in fact the source of our greatest potential • Supports individual heart-work by offering simple and practical exercises, meditations, and visualizations proven effective through many years of practice The heart is more often associated with vulnerability than hidden powers. We generally feel the need to protect our heart, building high walls after experiences of emotional pain and hurt. This response is unconscious, and since the modern world teaches us to rely on the brain to guide our life and actions, many of us find it hard to connect to the power and skills within our own hearts. Addressing the fears and feelings of insecurity that can arise and prevent us from opening up to the treasures we hold within, Shai Tubali reveals that the heart, often perceived as our most vulnerable and fragile place, is in fact the source of our greatest potential. Providing practical advice, exercises, meditations, and visualizations proven through his own heart-work practice, he shows how to tap into the heart’s energy field and easily activate its seven secret powers: wisdom, vulnerability, forgiveness, ability to love, infinite energy, transformation, and self-acceptance. He explains how our modern education system develops our mind perception only, focusing on the goal of being successful and urging us constantly to be faster and better. Not only does this not bring happiness and fulfilment, but it may even cause stress and illness. Showing how to transition from mind to heart perception, Tubali helps us understand more about our heart’s skills and how to implement its powers by healing inner energetic and emotional blockages. Calling for a change from one-sided mind perception and behavior, Tubali urges us to get in touch with our core and surrender completely to our heart energy, leaving all misconceptions behind and tearing down protective walls to discover our full potential. Unlocking the seven heart powers will lead to a deep sense of peace, balance, and fulfilment and enable you to approach life from a place of trust and love.

Uno e Unico
by Aimar Rollan Valeria BraganteUno e Unico è un saggio filosofico, una ricerca intellettuale che tenta di dare una risposta alle eterne domande della vita. L’opera consta di circa trenta temi universali, atemporali e che incombono su tutti gli esseri umani, senza considerare età, razza, nazionalità o religione professata. In quest’opera il lettore non troverà grandi affermazioni, né risposte certe. Non troverà dogmi, né dottrine. L’obiettivo di questo libro è far riflettere il lettore, generare in lui un pensiero critico, filosofico, mistico … In definitiva, offrirgli qualcosa che non solo sazi la sua conoscenza, ma che anche gli faccia intraprendere un viaggio interiore per conoscere sé stesso, affinchè trovi, lui stesso, le proprie conclusioni. Quest’opera è il risultato di molti anni di ricerca e riflessione, è una sintesi della conoscenza occidentale(scienza, filosofia, tecnologia …) e della saggezza orientale (yoga, vedanta, meditazione, zen …). "Vivere senza filosofare è, propriamente, avere gli occhi chiusi, senza tentare mai di aprirli". René Descartes.

La vida en tus manos: Superando el síndrome del adulto frágil
by Alejandro De BarbieriUn libro que nos enseña a asumir responsabilidades para poder vivir con libertad y amor. Después de la formidable repercusión de Economía y felicidad y de Educar sin culpa, Alejandro De Barbieri presenta un libro a la vez práctico y profundo, que nos propone salir de la actitud del adulto frágil y tomar la vida en nuestras manos, para convertirnos en los protagonistas de nuestra propia historia. Si Educar sin culpa se centraba en los desafíos que implica la paternidad en la actualidad, en este trabajo el énfasis está puesto en la libertad que debemos asumir como adultos para tomar una actitud activa ante la vida. La invitación es a ser responsables y felices en nuestra pareja, con nuestros hijos, en el trabajo y con el resto de la sociedad. El desafío es vincularnos de una forma saludable y afectiva, que incida positivamente en el mundo que nos rodea. En estas páginas, que fluyen a modo de diálogo directo con el lector, el autor nos plantea un recorrido por la fragilidad de los vínculos hoy: desde la dificultad para convivir en pareja o la debilidad de las relaciones laborales, hasta la necesidad de vivir con inteligencia espiritual, con sentido del humor, aprendiendo a perdonar y agradecer para darle sentido a nuestra existencia y proyectar un recorrido vital del cual somos los únicos responsables. La vida en tus manos es una invitación a decidir sin excusas, a salir de la "queja nuestra de cada día" y hacernos cargo de nuestras acciones para ser adultos sólidos y vencer la fragilidad.

Viva amando su vida: Acepte la aventura de ser dirigido por el Esp¿ritu Santo
by Joyce MeyerComo muchas personas, puede que le sea fácil expresar amor por su familia, su cónyuge, su iglesia, el Señor, o por cosas temporales, como una buena taza de café, su casa o una buena cena en su restaurante favorito. Sin embargo, quizás tenga que esforzarse de verdad por decir: "¡Amo mi vida!"Las rutinas y las responsabilidades pueden convertirse en una monotonía, que lo hagan sentirse amedrentado, en vez de desearlas con ansias. No obstante, usted puede convertirse en un ser optimista y maravillarse de las cosas que Dios puede hacer todos los días.Escrito por la autora número uno del New York Times, Joyce Meyer, este libro es la clave para cambiar su perspectiva, que le permite a su vez disfrutarse cada momento y cada área de la vida. Joyce explica cómo amar la vida completamente, a pesar de los obstáculos, ¡para que pueda experimentar el gozo y la plenitud que Dios tiene para usted!Los capítulos incluyen:Dios tiene un plan asombroso para usted,Niéguese a dejar que el temor determine su destino,Considere cada día como una oportunidad, y¡Sea la persona que Dios creó que fuera!La clave para amar su vida se encuentra en el amor de Dios por usted. Aprenda cómo Dios puede ayudarle a mantener una actitud alegre, haciendo que el amor y la bondad sean las prioridades principales, y que lo que usted regale se le devuelva con creces. Como explica Joyce, Dios ya le ha bendecido con lo que necesita para que VIVA AMANDO SU VIDA. Y este libro le mostrará cómo hacerlo.

Vivene nell'adesso in facili passi
by A. J. Parr Alberto FavaroQuesto libro contiene sette semplici lezioni ed esercizi di base che potete facilmente usare per aiutare a fermare la vostra “mente che chiacchiera” e cominciare a vivere l'Adesso, una pratica che può darvi la pace interiore e la gioia A PARTIRE DA OGGI! Qui imparerete i principi e i metodi base dietro all’antica pratica del Vivere l'Adesso, fondamenti dal valore inestimabile di tutti gli antichi insegnamenti spirituali mondiali, compresi quelli di Gesù, Buddha, Krishna, Lao Tzu, Kabir, e quelli più recenti di Eckhart Tolle, Krishnamurti, Dalai Lama, Ramana Maharshi, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Alan Watts, e innumerevoli altri. Le sette lezioni e gli esercizi che troverete sono basate sulle seguenti antiche premesse: *La sofferenza e l’infelicità umana sono prodotte dalla nostra “mente che chiacchiera”, che senza sosta produce un dialogo interno o chiacchiericcio, impedendoci di vivere pienamente l'Adesso. *C’è un modo per rallentare e fermare la nostra mente che chiacchiera. Una volta imparato come farlo, sarete in grado di rallentare e fermarla quando ne avrete bisogno (in particolare quando avrete veramente bisogno di fermarla e porre fine all'angoscia e alla sofferenza che vi auto infliggete). *Non potete fermare completamente i vostri pensieri, e non è neppure auspicabile. Anche gli esseri illuminati hanno bisogno di vivere e interagire con la società, come tutti gli esseri umani. *In realtà rallentando la vostra mente che chiacchiera, potete far perdere loro la loro forza. Riconoscendole semplicemente come “illusioni”, cioè, come prodotto di un fenomeno psicologico comune tra gli esseri umani e presumibilmente conosciuto in India sin dai tempi della preistoria: il fenomeno dell’illusione mentale causata da quello che da migliaia di anni è conosciuto come “il velo di Maya”. *Solo liberandovi da questo velo mentale potrete a poco a poco svegliarvi e liberarvi dall’illusione p

Logo que aprenda a fazer isso, você também será capaz de abrandar e parar, quando necessário (especialmente quando você precisar mesmo de parar e acabar com sua aflição e sofrimento auto-infligidos). * Você não pode barrar seus pensamentos completamente, nem é desejável.

Voice Lessons for Parents: What to Say, How to Say it, and When to Listen
by Wendy MogelRenowned speaker, parenting expert, and New York Times bestselling author Dr. Wendy Mogel offers an essential guide to the new art of talking to children, showing how a change in tone and demeanor can transform the relationship between parent and child.Most parents are perfectly fine communicators—unless they’re talking to their children. Then, too often, their pitch rises and they come across as pleading, indignant, wounded, outraged. In tone and body language they signal, I can’t handle it when you act like a child. Dr. Wendy Mogel saw this pattern time and again in her clinical practice. In response, she developed a remarkably effective series of “voice lessons,” which she shared with parents who were struggling with their kids. The results were immediate: a shift in vocal style led to children who were calmer, listened more attentively, and communicated with more warmth, respect, and sincerity. In Voice Lessons for Parents, Mogel elaborates on her novel clinical approach, revealing how each age and stage of a child’s life brings new opportunities to connect through language. Drawing from sources as diverse as neuroscience, fairy tales, and anthropology, Mogel offers specific guidance for talking to children across the expanse of childhood and adolescence. She also explains the best ways to talk about your child to partners, exes, and grandparents, as well as to teachers, coaches, and caretakers. Throughout the book, Mogel addresses an obstacle that bedevils even the most seasoned and confident parent: the distraction of digital devices, how they impact our connection with our families, and what we can do about it. Mogel’s now classic book, The Blessing of a Skinned Knee, is a beloved resource for a generation of parents. Voice Lessons for Parents brings her unique brand of practical wisdom to harried parents eager to deepen their relationships with their kids. “Children will lead you on an incredible journey,” writes Mogel, “if they trust you, if you take the time, and if you’re willing to follow.”

WA. La vía japonesa de la armonía
by Laura Messina¿En qué consiste exactamente el espíritu japonés? 72 palabras para entender que la verdadera felicidad es la compartida. Wa significa armonía, pero como todas las palabras japonesas evoca mucho más. Wa es, de hecho, todo lo que es suave, sereno y moderado, pero también hace referencia a todo lo que es japonés. Wa es un prefijo que se aplica tanto a cosas como a conceptos. A través de wa, Japón nos enseña su mejor lección: la belleza, la alegría y el civismo se construyen con grandes dosis de compromiso, mediante el trabajo continuo en uno mismo, ejercitando la paciencia, haciendo las cosas con cuidado y nunca a expensas de otros, porque una felicidad verdaderamente duradera es un proyecto de todos y nunca de uno solo. Laura Imai Messina, autora italiana afincada en Tokio y creadora del blog Japan Mon Amour, realiza en este libro un viaje a través de setenta y dos palabras que simbolizan y encarnan el encancanto y la esencia de Japón, y nos desvela el significado oculto de unos nombres llenos de poesía; como las setenta y dos estaciones del antiguo calendario lunar japonés, que cada cinco días da la oportunidad de renovarse. Las enseñanzas procedentes de Japón son más actuales que nunca, incluso en Occidente. Pero, ¿en qué consiste exactamente el espíritu japonés? El antiguo nombre de Japón era Yamato que, dividido en sus ideogramas, significa «Gran wa», es decir, «Gran Armonía». Y esa armonía, que es una prioridad de la cultura japonesa y domina las palabras y actitudes de su gente, es también un concepto en el camino, un sistema de absorción, elección y adaptación, que le da a Japón ese halo de misterio mágico que fascina al mundo.

Walking with Peety: How An Overweight, Middle-aged Shelter Dog Saved My Overweight, Middle-aged Self
by Mark Dagostino Eric O'GreyEric was 150 pounds overweight, depressed, and sick. After a lifetime of failed diet attempts, and the onset of type 2 diabetes due to his weight, Eric went to a new doctor, who surprisingly prescribed a shelter dog. And that's when Eric met Peety: an overweight, middle-aged, and forgotten dog who, like Eric, had seen better days. The two adopted each other and began an incredible journey together, forming a bond of unconditional love that forever changed their lives. Over the next year, just by going on walks, playing together, and eating plant-based foods, Eric lost 150 pounds, and Peety lost 25. As a result, Eric reversed his diabetes, got off all medication, and became happy and healthy for the first time in his life-eventually reconnecting with and marrying his high school sweetheart. WALKING WITH PEETY is for anyone who is ready to make a change in his or her life, and for everyone who knows the joy, love, and hope that dogs can bring. This is more than a tale of mutual rescue. This is an epic story of friendship and strength.
Wat is jou Nalatenskap? 101 Idees om 'n Nalatenskap te skep en bou
by Anca IoviţăIs jy by ‘n kruispad? Wonder jy wat jy met jou lewe met doen? Sal die lewe makliker wees as jy net bietjie aanwysings kon kry? Selfs al gesels mense nie oor nalatenskappe nie, is hierdie die vrae wat gedurende die stil ure van die nag in amper almal se gedagtes maal. Veral in dié van ons wat sekere mylpale bereik soos volwassenheid, middeljare en aftrede. Het jy al ooit die proses van metamorfose van ‘n skoenlapper opgelet? Om uit die kokon te kom is moeilik en pynlik. Jy mag dink jy doen die skoenlapper ‘n guns as jy die kokon se boonste deel oop knip sodat dit makliker kan uitkom, maar as jy dit doen sal die skoenlapper se vlerke nie behoorlik ontwikkel nie en dit sal kruppel wees vir die res van sy lewe. Stribbeling en uitdagings is nodig vir metamorfose om plaas te vind. Hulle is ook nodig vir die skep en bou van ‘n nalatenskap.
The Way of Abundance: A 60-day Journey Into A Deeply Meaningful Life
by Ann VoskampWhat do you do when you wake up and feel like you're not enough for your life? Or when you look out the kitchen window as dusk falls and wonder how do you live when life keeps breaking your heart? As Ann Voskamp writes, “great grief isn't meant to fit inside your body. It's why your heart breaks.” And each of us holds enough brokenness to overflow—to be given as the greatest story of our lives.In sixty vulnerably soulful stories, The Way of Abundance moves from self-weary brokenness to Christ-focused givenness. Drawing from the critically acclaimed, New York Times bestseller The Broken Way and Ann's online essays, this devotional dares us to embrace brokenness as a gift that moves us to givenness as a way to draw closer to the heart of God. Christ Himself broke like bread, giving Himself to us so we might have a lifelong communion with Him. Could it be that our brokenness is also a gift to the world?This gentle but exquisitely profound book does nothing less than take you on an intimate journey of the soul.As Ann writes, "The wound in His side proves that Jesus is always on the side of the suffering, the wounded, the busted, the broken." Discover how surrendering in unexpected ways is the first step toward receiving what you long for. Discover the good news that your beauty is not in your strength but in your fragility. Discover why your healing shines radiant through your wounds—and how only in brokenness will you ever be whole—and find the way to the abundance you were meant for.

Dyer left the physical plane in 2015, psychic medium Karen Noé began receiving very profound and specific messages from him for his family —and for the world.

Then you must live that identity to the fullest.After understanding and applying these ideas, you will be able to create miracles in your life and the lives of others as well. You’ll learn how to create heaven right here on earth.
