The Wrong Knickers - A Decade of Chaos
by Bryony GordonBryony Gordon survived her adolescence by dreaming about the life she'd have in her twenties: the perfect job; the lovely flat; the amazing boyfriend. The reality was something of a shock. Her Telegraph column was a diary of her daily screw-ups; she lived in a series of squalid shoe boxes; and her most meaningful relationship of the entire decade was with a Marlboro Light.

The truth about picking up a colleague at the STI clinic; sinking into debt to fund a varied diet of wine, crisps and vodka; and how it feels when your dream man turns out to be a one night stand who hands you someone else's knickers in the morning.Bryony's wonderfully ridiculous and ultimately redemptive story is essential reading for everyone whose 'best years' weren't quite what they were expecting...

Xiu Yang: The Ancient Chinese Art of Self-Cultivation for a Healthier, Happier, More Balanced Life
by Mimi Kuo-Deemer"A beautiful and timely gift." — Sifu Matthew Cohen, Founder, Sacred Energy Arts Founder For centuries, Chinese sages, rulers, and spiritual seekers have embraced a simple yet powerful principle that enables them to live in harmony with the source of nature and all life. The art of self-cultivation or xiu yang (pronounced "sheow yaang") is based on the concept that we can nurture our capacity to be fully human and awake, finding balance and peace in our home, life, and community. Author Mimi Kuo-Deemer leads readers through a combination of practices from meditation and mindfulness to yoga and qigong, offering ancient wisdom to help with contemporary challenges. "Exquisite ... for anyone interested in building a sustainable life that is imbued with vibrant healthy, mental and emotional clarity, and the most basic human need of all: happiness." — Donna Farhi, author of Yoga Mind, Body & Spirit "A treasure chest for the heart and mind, a potent tonic for body and breath, and a vibrant life essence for the spirit." — Simon Low, Principal of The Yoga Academy "Kuo-Deemer doesn't simply write about these ancient teachings, she shares the fruits of practicing them, processing timeless truths in her own heart and mind and body, so that we can do so in ours. Xiu Yang gives glimpses of her own transformational self-cultivation, while showing us a path for our own." — Martin Lylward, Co-Founder, The Mindfulness Institute "Profound and powerful." — Norman Blair, author of Brightening Our Inner Skies"Almost lost in China over the past century's onslaught of modernisation, xiu yang is now at the centre of Chinese people's search for values and belief — a tribute to the enduring power of these ancient practices. In this slender but powerful book, Mimi Kuo-Deemer unlocks xiu yang for the modern reader, de-mystifying it without losing the eternal, timeless qualities that have made it one of Chinese people's most potent ways of living a good, honourable, happy, and healthy life." — Ian Johnson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Souls of China: The Return of Religion After Mao

XOXO, Cody: An Opinionated Homosexual's Guide to Self-Love, Relationships, and Tactful Pettiness
by Cody RigsbyThe beloved Peloton instructor chronicles his journey from small-town North Carolina to New York City stardom in an empowering story that reveals his secret to success: not taking yourself—or life—too seriously.&“Reading XOXO, Cody is like hanging out with that friend who makes you laugh and can open up their heart to you.&”—Phoebe Robinson, New York Times bestselling author of Please Don&’t Sit on My Bed in Your Outside ClothesCody Rigsby has a lot of opinions: Kevin is the hottest Backstreet Boy; grape jelly is a crime against nature; if you wear flip-flops in New York City, you do not love yourself. But if there is one opinion—one truth—that he holds above all others, it&’s that we shouldn&’t let the fear of looking stupid or being judged hold us back from living our best lives. Cody didn&’t always feel this way. In XOXO, Cody, he opens up about his journey toward accepting himself, from growing up gay and poor in the South to his migration to New York City, where he went from broke-ass dancer to fitness icon. He intimately details what it was like to lose both his father and best friend to addiction and how he began to repair his relationship with his mom as an adult. He recounts his time working at a nightclub on the Lower East Side and his decision to audition for Peloton on a whim, and dishes about competing against Sporty Spice on Dancing with the Stars.With raw and inspiring stories about learning how to handle the scary sh*t, XOXO, Cody is a bold and heartfelt reminder that sometimes laughing at yourself is the best medicine. Remember: It ain&’t that deep, boo.

¿Y ahora qué hacemos?: Preguntas y respuestas después de una infidelidad
by Alejandra Godoy Haeberle Antonio Godoy Delard¿Y ahora qué hacemos?: Preguntas y respuestas después de una infidelidad
by Alejandra Godoy Haeberle Antonio Godoy Delard¿De qué manera se puede abordar terapéuticamente los episodios de infidelidad en la pareja? ¿Qué entendemos por infidelidad? ¿Han aumentado las infidelidades en el último tiempo? Quien fue infiel ¿lo volverá a ser? ¿Una pareja se puede recuperar después de una infidelidad? Estas y otras preguntas que muchos nos hemos hecho por años respecto de la infidelidad son las que responden los psicólogos Alejandra y Antonio Godoy, especialistas en pareja y sexualidad. A través del análisis de numerosos casos y de una extensa revisión de investigaciones, los autores abordan uno de los temas más complejos que viven algunas parejas: la infidelidad y cómo abordarla para evitar un quiebre. Con una vasta base teórica y a partir del estudio de ejemplos muy actuales, Alejandra y Antonio Godoy ofrecen una nueva mirada, la cual puede servir como guía para parejas, terapeutas, comunicadores y para todos aquellos que quieran orientar a aquellas que estén pasando por esta compleja situación como lo es una crisis pos-infidelidad "Nuestro principal objetivo es entregarles una mirada amplia y desprejuiciada que los ayude a derribar el sinnúmero de mitos que prevalecen al hablar de infidelidad. Para ello procuramos exponerles desde distintos ángulos los hallazgos más relevantes, basándonos tanto en información empírica como en nuestros años de experiencia clínica. Tenemos la esperanza de que ahora estén más dispuestos a dejar de lado sus creencias TAN arraigadas y generen nuevas interpretaciones que los conduzcan no solo a evitar la separación sino también a fortalecer su relación", aseguran los expertos en su libro. Como ellos mismos plantean, la idea es entregar una visión más amplia respecto de la infidelidad y persuadir a quienes la han vivido de que esta problemática no puede ser vista desde categorías como "bueno" y "malo", y de que no existen verdades absolutas en este asunto. Es posible que al final queden más preguntas y cuestionamientos en el aire que respuestas y aseveraciones, lo que puede ser una tremenda oportunidad para enriquecer el diálogo de la pareja.

Yeah, No. Not Happening.: How I Found Happiness Swearing Off Self-Improvement and Saying F*ck It All—and How You Can Too
by Karen KarboThe author of the acclaimed, bestselling In Praise of Difficult Women delivers a hilarious feminist manifesto that encourages us to reject “self-improvement” and instead learn to appreciate and flaunt our complex, and flawed, human selves.Why are we so obsessed with being our so-called best selves? Because our modern culture force feeds women lies designed to heighten their insecurities: “You can do it all—crush it at work, at home, in the bedroom, at PTA and at Pilates—and because you can, you should. We can show you how!” Karen Karbo has had enough. She’s taking a stand against the cultural and societal pressures, marketing, and media influences that push us to spend endless time, energy and money trying to “fix” ourselves—a race that has no finish line and only further increases our send of self-dissatisfaction and loathing. “Yeah, no, not happening,” is her battle cry. In this wickedly smart and entertaining book, Karbo explores how “self-improvery” evolved from the provenance of men to women. Recast as “consumers” in the 1920s, women, it turned out, could be seduced into buying anything that might improve not just their lives, but their sense of self-worth. Today, we smirk at Mad Men-era ads targeting 1950s housewives—even while savvy marketers, aided and abetted by social media “influencers,” peddle skin care “systems,” skinny tea, and regimens that promise to deliver endless happiness. We’re not simply seduced into dropping precious disposable income on empty promises; the underlying message is that we can’t possibly know what’s good for us, what we want, or who we should be. Calling BS, Karbo blows the lid off of this age-old trend and asks women to start embracing their awesomely imperfect selves.There is no one more dangerous than a woman who doesn’t care what anyone thinks of her. Yeah, No, Not Happening is a call to arms to build a posse of dangerous women who swear off self-improvement and its peddlers. A welcome corrective to our inner-critic, Karbo’s manifesto will help women restore their sanity and reclaim their self-worth.
