Book SynopsisWho are you becoming? That was the question nagging pastor and author John Mark Comer. By outward metrics, everything appeared successful. But inwardly, things weren't pretty. So he turned to a trusted mentor for guidance and heard these words: 'Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life.'

Book SynopsisWe probably went to school for what felt like a very long time. We probably took care with our homework. Along the way we surely learnt intriguing things about equations, the erosion of glaciers, the history of the Middle Ages, and the tenses of foreign languages. But why, despite all the lessons we sat through, were we never taught the really important things that dominate and trouble our lives: who to start a relationship with, how to trust people, how to understand one’s psyche, how to move on from sorrow or betrayal, and how to cope with anxiety and shame? The School of Life is an organisation dedicated to teaching a range of emotional lessons that we need in order to lead fulfilled and happy lives – and that schools routinely forget to teach us. This book is a collection of our most essential lessons, delivered with directness and humanity, covering topics from love to career, childhood trauma to loneliness. To read the book is to be invited to lead kinder, richer and more authentic lives – and to complete an education we began but still badly need to finish. This is homework to help us make the most of the rest of our lives.Trade Review'Brilliant book' * Ayesha Hazarika, Times Radio *'This is a subject I absolutely love' * Jo Good, BBC London *

Book SynopsisIn The Ikigai Journey, authors Hector Garcia and Francesc Miralles take their international bestseller Ikigai: the Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life a step further by showing you how to find your own ikigai through practical exercises, such as employing new habits and stepping outside your comfort zone.Ikigai is the place where our passion (what we love), mission (what we hope to contribute), vocation (the gifts we have to offer the world) and profession (how our passions and talents can become a livelihood) converge, giving us a personal sense of meaning. This book helps you bring together all of these elements so that you can enjoy a balanced life.Our ikigai is very similar to change: it is a constant that transforms depending on which phase of life we are in. Our "reason for being" is not the same at 15 as it is at 70. Through three sections, this book helps you to accept and embrace that—acting as a tool to revolutionize your future by helping you to understand the past, so you can enjoy your present. Section 1: Journey Through the Future: Tokyo (a symbol of modernity and innovation) Section 2: Journey Through the Past: Kyoto (an ancient capital moored in tradition) Section 3: Journey Through the Present: Ise (an ancient shrine that is destroyed and rebuilt every twenty years) Japan has one of the longest life spans in the world, and the greatest number of centenarians—many of whom cite their strong sense of ikigai as the basis for their happiness and longevity. Unlike many "self-care" practices, which require setting aside time in an increasingly busy world, the ikigai method helps you find peace and fulfillment in your busy life.Trade Review"From the authors of Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life comes a sequel that goes beyond the concept of understanding and empowering all aspects of ikigai (one's purpose in life)…Beneficial for readers who find the concept of ikigai intriguing." -- Library Journal"I can HIGHLY recommend getting this book yourself…it's full of in-depth activities and questions that will really make you re-think your life, no matter what stage of self-development you're at." --The Travel Tester blog"Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, The Ikigai Journey is thoroughly 'reader friendly' in tone and narrative style--making it an ideal and enduringly popular addition to community, college, and university library Self-Help/Self-Improvement collections." --Midwest Book Review

Book SynopsisThe concept of self-care is, in fact, thousands of years old. This buzzword is rooted in a 2,500-year old Chinese philosophy. ''Yang sheng'' means to nourish life – fostering your own health and wellbeing by nurturing body, mind and spirit. In this book, Katie Brindle teaches readers how to harness this powerful natural healing system to improve every aspect of their life.Yang Sheng fits and works brilliantly in modern life. Some of the techniques may seem unusual, but they are all simple, quick and effective.

And so, Yang Sheng encourages you to have the green juice and the glass of wine, a full-on day at work and a night out dancing.For people who are overtired and overtaxed, stressed, lacking a sex drive, or who feel anxious or hopeless, the practice of

Book SynopsisIt’s time to take our lives back from a world of narcissism, entitlement, and toxic relationships.“Don’t You Know Who I Am?” has become the mantra of the famous and infamous, the entitled and the insecure. It’s the tagline of the modern narcissist. Health and wellness campaigns preach avoidance of unhealthy foods, sedentary lifestyles, tobacco, drugs, and alcohol, but rarely preach avoidance of unhealthy, difficult or toxic people. Yet the health benefits of removing toxic people from your life may have far greater benefits to both physical and psychological health. We need to learn to be better gatekeepers for our minds, bodies, and souls. Narcissism, entitlement, and incivility have become the new world order, and we are all in trouble. They are not only normalized but also increasingly incentivized. They are manifestations of pathological insecurity—insecurities that are experienced at both the individual and societal level. The paradox is that we value these patterns. We venerate them through social media, mainstream media, and consumerism, and they are endemic in political, corporate, academic, and media leaders. There are few lives untouched by narcissists. These relationships infect those who are in them with self-doubt, despair, confusion, anxiety, depression, and the chronic feeling of being “not enough,” all of which make it so difficult to step away and set boundaries. The illusion of hope and the fantasy of redemption can result in years of second chances, and despondency when change never comes. It’s time for a wake-up call. It’s time to stem the tide of narcissism, entitlement, and antagonism, and take our lives back.

Book SynopsisA 5-step energy detox program from renowned energy healing expert, Oliver Nino that removes the crippling blocks from your energetic field that stand between you and abundance, purpose, and happiness.Renowned energy healer and spiritual activation expert, Oliver Nino shares his 5-step energy reset that eliminates the toxins that hold you back from being in your healthiest state.In this book, Oliver explains how energetic blocks lodge themselves in your system as negative beliefs, emotions, and sometimes even physical conditions. Traumas, ancestral roots, or environmental factors create feelings of fear, guilt, anger, betrayal, uselessness, hurt, and inadequacy that can flow through you like dangerous, free radicals. These create walls in your energetic field, which can cause physical disease, relationship issues, feeling “stuck,” a lack of abundance, a lack of purpose, a lack of confidence, anxiety, depression, or a general feeling of unhappiness.Writes Oliver, "I find that when you cleanse, or remove, the blocks that weigh people down using my healing techniques, it not only detoxes their energetic fields—thus, healing various aspects of wellness—but also allows them to tap into a higher power and activate their own gifts, so that they can pursue their purpose on earth. Every one of us is naturally wired to clear our energy fields. Our souls arrived here in a clear, energetic state, and so it’s possible to return to our natural way of being."

Book Synopsis''I inhaled Do Less and as I finished, I found myself breathing easier. Important book, perfect timing.'' - Glennon Doyle, #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of UntamedThere''s nothing particularly easy about being a working mother... But there are some key things we can do to make it easier. In our culture, the way we work isn''t working. Our addiction to busyness and obsession with always trying to do more leads us to feel like we''re always failing our families, our careers, our spouses, and ourselves. We need to revolutionize the way we work. It''s not acceptable to work ourselves to the brink of exhaustion, to constantly be on-call and checking our work e-mail around the clock. How do we fix the system? The answer isn''t some corporate policy. And it isn''t leaning in. It''s a system within ourselves, in our daily work lives, and in our homes. Because the only way to create a new system is to bTrade Review“In Do Less, Kate uses her signature, crystal clear wisdom to insist that we stop wearing busyness as a badge of honor and begin to claim our time, our peace, our lives. Then she shows us how. I inhaled Do Less and as I finished, I found myself breathing easier. Important book, perfect timing.” — Glennon Doyle, founder of Together Rising and author of #1 New York Times bestseller Love Warrior “If you want off the ‘I’m so busy/I’m so tired’ train while making even more of an impact at work and at home, this is your ticket.” — Melissa Hartwig Urban, Whole30 co-founder and CEO, New York Times best-selling author, and single mom “Do Less had me from the very first page. Its message and method are game changers. Kate Northrup has written the new manifesto for how to claim your birthright of peace, health, and sanity in a world that teaches us just the opposite. This book is a must read for just about everyone.” — Christiane Northrup, M.D., New York Times best-selling author of Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom and Mother Daughter Wisdom “From the moment I opened up Do Less, my heart was put at ease. As a new mother, I am so grateful for the road map Kate lays out to make women more happy and full of joy.” — Vani Hari, New York Times best-selling author and founder of FoodBabe.com “As a recovering doer and as a psychiatrist who has witnessed the grave consequences of a life dictated by masculine principles of achievement, I will go so far as to say this book is essential reading for any woman in the feminine reclamation process.” — Kelly Brogan, M.D., New York Times best-selling author of A Mind of Your Own “Do Less is here to help us honor our cyclical, nonlinear nature and redefine productivity. We’re already wired with power and wisdom; rather than telling us what to do, Kate invites us to choose where to focus and when to rest, why to ask new questions, and how to nourish our intuition in order to arrive at the answers. Thank you, Kate, for this heartfelt, witty, and real map to doing less and loving more.” — Elena Brower, author of Practice You and Art of Attention “Kate Northrup’s new book is a fabulous, paradigm-shifting guide for women who are ready to bring rest and rhythms back into their lives—while thriving creatively and earning a living as well.” — Tara Mohr, author Playing Big: Practical Wisdom for Women Who Want to Speak Up, Create, and Lead “I inhaled this book because it illuminates a language about women and work that I’ve lived by without realizing it. I’ve never felt more validated or less alone in the way I do work as a woman in the world.” — Meggan Watterson, best-selling author of The Divine Feminine Oracle

Book SynopsisExplains how people who are clinically dead can have a transformative experience, illustrating the stories of people who have gone through a Near Death Experience (NDE). This title states that our consciousness does not always coincide with brain functions, and shows that consciousness can even be experienced separate from the body.Trade Review"Dr. Pim van Lommel's Consciousness Beyond Life is an exciting, informative, and thorough overview of near-death experiences. As one of the foremost experts in the field, his work moves us closer to rational comprehension of human kind's deepest mystery- life after death." -- Raymond A. Moody MD,PhD, author of Life After Life "In Consciousness Beyond Life, cardiologist Pim van Lommel constructs a model of consciousness that courageously builds on all we know. The resulting view is... bright and hopeful... and has the redeeming feature of being consistent with scientific data, which in our era makes all the difference." -- Dr. Larry Dossey "Pim van Lommel shows that the symphony of human consciousness does continue... [even] at the portals of death. His evidence is robust, and can no longer be ignored either by the science community, or by society at large." -- Dr. Ervin Laszlo "Most books on NDEs only touch on some of the ideas that are presented, but the distinctive contribution of this book is that it presents and defends a complete theory of consciousness... What a brilliant, erudite and magisterial book. A magnificent achievement, clearly a landmark book. " -- Dr. Kenneth Ring, Professor Emeritus of Psychology, University of Connecticut "Consciousness Beyond Life confronts the apparent enigma of clear thinking, accurate perception, and enhanced memory in people who are clinically dead. This rigorous and provocative book may change our ideas about the mind and how we practice medicine." -- Bruce Greyson, M.D., Carlson Professor of Psychiatry & Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia School of Medicine "I highly recommend Consciousness Beyond Life. Van Lommel is convinced that NDEs are real experiences, not just some sort of brain malfunction. He... has studied NDEs for more than 20 years and this is an authoritative look, with solid medical background. " -- Dr. Charles T. Tart, Ph.D. "There have been several books published which explore consciousness, the near-death experience, or the brain, but van Lommel's book is the most comprehensive... Human beings are something more than physical bodies. There is life after death. Read Consciousness Beyond Life and expand your mind with hope." -- Basil & Spice "The most significant contribution to the field to appear in many years, containing as it does [van Lommel's] mature philosophical reflections on the implications of the findings of his study on near-death experiences in survivors of cardiac arrest." -- David Lorimer, editor of the Network Review

Book Synopsis"A hands-on, real talk guide for navigating the hot-button issues that so many families struggle with" - Reese WitherspoonDo you find yourself taking on the lion's share of all the thankless, invisible but time-consuming work in the home? FAIR PLAY is the first book that shows you that there can be a different way: a way to get more done, with less fuss, in a way that feels more balanced.Eve Rodsky is changing society one relationship at a time, by coming up with a 21st-century solution to an age-old problem: women shouldering the brunt of domestic responsibilities, the mental load, the emotional labour. Everything that is required to keep the fridge full, the children's homework in their bags, and the household running. The unequal division of all this invisible work in relationships is a recipe for disaster, but no one has offered a real solution to this dilemma, until now. Eve Rodsky was tired of always being the one who has to remember to buy loo roll, or to book the family's dentist appointments, or to send the thank you cards - all while working full time. So Eve decided to do what she does every day as an organisational management consultant: Organise. She conducted original research with more than 500 couples to figure out WHAT the invisible work in a family actually is and HOW to get it done effectively and all in a way that makes relationships even stronger. FAIR PLAY identifies the 100 main tasks in any relationship, and then divides those tasks fairly (not necessarily equally) so that both parties contribute their fair share. If we don't learn to rebalance our home life and reclaim some time to develop the skills and passions that keep us unique, then we risk losing our right to be interesting, not just to our partner, but to ourselves. Getting this right isn't a luxury, it's a necessity for a happy, lasting partnership. Part how-to guide for couples, part modern relationship manifesto, FAIR PLAY offers an innovative system with a completely original lexicon to discuss how relationships actually work ... and how we can make them work better.Trade ReviewI'm so impressed with the Fair Play handbook.Not only did Eve break down every taskthat a couple is responsible for, but she managedto create a system where dividing thosetasks is fun, insightful, and gratifying. Herapproach is filled with love, humor, wisdom,and the idea that if we can work togetherand acknowledge each other's strengths andweaknesses, we can build better, stronger,and longer-lasting relationships. -- Reese WitherspoonFair Play is a game-changing guide to reclaimingmore time in our lives by dividingdomestic work in a deceptively simple newway. This system of dealing virtual 'cards' toshare the work it takes to run a household isrevolutionary and can help you succeed andtruly thrive in all aspects of your life! -- Arianna Huffington, founder and CEO Thrive GlobalFair Play gives us permission to create ourown values that introduce equity into ourhouseholds. Imagine what could be differentabout you, your relationships, and the world,if we collectively decided to play fair. -- Alexis Jemal, JD, LCSW, PhD, assistant professor, Silberman School of Social Work, Hunter CollegeThere are three 'people' in every busy relationship:Person A, Person B, and the systemthat governs them. When things feel overwhelming,most people point at themselvesor their partner to explain it, but more oftenthan not the system itself is the problem.This is brilliantly illustrated in Fair Play,where Eve Rodsky makes the existing systemvisible and provides a clear path to builda new one that enables readers to focus onwhat their family values most. -- Greg McKeown, author of EssentialismFair Play is what every busy parent needs toshed resentment, move beyond blame, andreconnect with each other.
