    Book SynopsisThis isn't a book about BECOMING it's about BEING: noted psychologist Dr. Benjamin Hardy shows how to imagine the person you want to be, then BE that person now. When you do this, your imagined FUTURE directs your behavior, rather than your past. Who is your Future-Self?That question may seem trite. But it's literally the answer to all of your life's questions. It's the answer to what you're going to do today. It's the answer to how motivated you are, and how you feel about yourself. It's the answer to whether you'll distract yourself on social media for hours, whether you'll eat junk food, and what time you get up in the morning.Your imagined Future-Self is the driver of your current reality. It is up to you to develop the ability to imagine better and more expansive visions of your Future-Self.Your current view of your Future-Self is very limited. If you seek learning, growth, and new experiences, you'll be able to imagine a different and betTrade Review"Knowing your Future Self is key to living powerfully and purposefully. Dr. Benjamin Hardy has laid out the groundwork and science so that you can not only know your Future Self intimately, but you can also transform your life." - Tony Robbins, #1 New York Times best-selling author of Life Force

Kaizen will change your habits for good.This beautifully colour illustrated and photographed book offers a way to build good habits and remove bad ones, without being too hard on yourself along the way. The focus is on having patience, shaping solutions for yourself rather than following others and not giving up when things aren’t working. Rather than being critical of your faults, the emphasis is on mindful, positive change. Well-known in the business and sports worlds as a method for mapping incremental goals, Kaizen is also a wonderful tool for slowly improving aspects of your life, without feeling daunted or overwhelmed by the challenge.Kaizen by Sarah Harvey brings you a personalized and flexible approach to change that you can apply to any area of your life (whether it is health, relationships, money, career, habits, new hobbies or general wellbeing).

Unlike a lot of self-improvement guides that make you want to change EVERYTHING NOW! – an approach which inevitably fails – this book is gentle and practical in its advice. Reading it made me feel calmer and at the same time motivated to sort out my cupboards and call my auntie; small tweaks maybe, but these things can make the difference between a good day and a bad one. A really lovely book. -- Marianne Power, author of Help Me!This wonderful book explains the Japanese art of turning small kizuki (realizations) into improvements. A great kaizen on the subject of kaizen itself, it will help anyone interested in lifelong learning, mental and physical health, career success, and happiness to achieve inner harmony. -- Ken Mogi, author of Awakening Your Ikigai

The Emotion Code has already changed many lives around the world, and it is my hope that millions more will be led to use this simple tool to heal themselves and their loved ones.' - Tony RobbinsIn this newly revised and expanded edition of The Emotion Code, renowned holistic physician and lecturer Dr. Bradley Nelson skilfully lays bare the inner workings of the subconscious mind. He reveals how emotionally-charged events from your past can still be haunting you in the form of 'trapped emotions' - emotional energies that literally inhabit your body. These trapped emotions can fester in your life and body, creating pain, malfunction and eventual disease. They can also extract a heavy mental and emotional toll on you, impacting how you think, the choices that you make, and the level of success and abundance you are able to achieve. Perhaps most damaging of all, trapped emotional energies can gather around your heart, cutting off your ability to give and receive love.The Emotion Code is a powerful and simple way to rid yourself of this unseen baggage. Dr. Nelson's method gives you the tools to identify and release the trapped emotions in your life, eliminating your 'emotional baggage', and opening your heart and body to the positive energies of the world. Filled with real-world examples from many years of clinical practice, The Emotion Code is a distinct and authoritative work that has become a classic on self-healing.Trade ReviewI believe that the discoveries in this book can change our understanding of how we store emotional experiences and in so doing, change our lives.

    Book SynopsisRecently, fake news has become real news, making headlines as its consequences become crushingly obvious in political upsets and global turmoil. But it's not new - you've seen it all before. A malicious online rumour costs a company millions. Politically motivated 'fake news' stories are planted and disseminated to influence elections. Some product or celebrity zooms from total obscurity to viral sensation. Anonymous sources and speculation become national conversation. What you don't know is that someone is responsible for all this. Usually, someone like Ryan Holiday: a media manipulator. Holiday wrote this book to explain how media manipulators work, how to spot their fingerprints, how to fight them, and how (if you must) to emulate their tactics. Why is he giving away these secrets? Because he's tired of a world where trolls hijack debates, marketers help write the news, reckless journalists spread lies, and no one is accountable for any of it. He's pulling back the curtain because it's time everyone understands how things really work.Trade ReviewHoliday is part Machiavelli, part Ogilvy, and all results -- Tim Ferriss * The 4-Hour Workweek *Essential reading for anyone concerned with the current health of our digital media. -- Andrew Keen, TechCrunchRyan Holiday's brilliant expose of the unreality of the Internet should be required reading for every thinker in America. -- Edward Jay Epstein, author * The Big Picture *This is an astonishing book. ... Many of these stories are chilling. -- Gillian Tett * Financial Times *Provides valuable food for thought regarding how we receive - and perceive -information. * New York Post *Holiday has written more than a dyspeptic diatribe, as his precise prose and reference to the scholarship of others add weight to his claims. A sharp and disturbing look into the world of online reality. * Kirkus Reviews *His focus is prescient and his schemes compelling. Media students and bloggers would do well to heed Holiday's informative, timely, and provocative advice. * Publishers Weekly *The strategies Ryan created to exploit blogs drove sales of millions of my books and made me an internationally known name. -- Tucker MaxBehind my reputation as a marketing genius there is Ryan Holiday, whom I consult often and has done more for my business than just about anyone. -- Dov Charney, CEO and founder, American ApparelThis book will make online media giants very, very uncomfortable. -- Drew Curtis, founder, Fark.com[Like] Upton Sinclair on the blogosphere. -- Tyler Cowen, MarginalRevolution.com

    Book SynopsisHailed by Tony Robbins as the “definitive breathwork handbook,” Just Breathe will teach you how to harness your breath to reduce stress, increase productivity, balance your health, and find the path to spiritual awakening.Big meeting jitters? Anxiety over a test or taxes? Hard time focusing? What if you could control your outcomes and change results simply by regulating your breath? In this simple and revolutionary guide, world-renowned pioneer of breathwork Dan Brulé shares the Breath Mastery technique that has helped people in more than fifty countries reduce anxiety, improve their health, and tap infinite stores of energy. Just Breathe reveals the truth that elite athletes, champion martial artists, Navy SEAL warriors, first responders, and spiritual yogis have always known—when you regulate your breathing, you can moderate your state of well-being. So if you want to clear and calm your mind and spark peak performance, theTrade Review“This is a timely and essential book for our challenged world. Dan Brulé is a true master and deeply inspiring. Just Breathe is free medicine that will not only bring you optimal health, but also expand your consciousness.” -- Mark Divine, retired navy seal, founder/ceo Sealfit, and New York Times bestselling author of The Way of the Seal and Unbeatable Mind"Dan Brulé’s new book is a fascinating and practical guide to the overlooked importance of the breath for creativity, vitality and healing." -- Barnet Bain, author of The Book of Doing and Being: Rediscovering Creativity in Life, Love and Work and producer of What Dreams May Come“Excellent content and presentation. I will be very happy when more of my students and associates contribute as much as Dan has to the enlightenment and evolution of humanity through breathwork.” -- Leonard Orr, founder of Rebirth International"Dan Brule is one of the world’s great breathwork masters of our time. He weaves together breathing physiology, psychology, and spirituality in uniquely practical ways that most anyone can learn for improving health and performance. His writing style is crisp, clear, personal, easy to read, and even exciting. His book is a “must read” not only for breathworkers, healthcare practitioners, and yoga-meditation fans but also for virtually anyone who suspects that breathing might just be something important in their lives!" -- Peter M. Litchfield, Ph.D., President of the Graduate School of Behavioral Health Sciences"Just Breathe is a needed Gift to humanity! It brings us back to the importance and value of conscious breathing, and the many ways it improves the quality and depth our lives." -- Judith Kravitz, Founder and Director, Transformational Breath® Foundation and Global Trainings; author of Breathe Deep Laugh Loudly: The Joy of Transformational Breathing"Just Breathe will provide you with information about the revolutionary healing and growth that comes from conscious breathing which Dan Brule has accumulated over his many years of teaching and practice. Just Breathe also will provide you with the wisdom of a world traveler who has presented breathwork successfully in more cultures and diverse settings than practically anyone on the planet. Most importantly, Just Breathe will provide you with the inspiration to adapt these life affirming practices and have the confidence to come to inner peace and self love if you just breathe." -- Jim Morningstar, PhD, director of Transformations Breathwork Training Program and author of Breathing in Light and Love and The Complete Breath"I am a skeptic of nearly everything. I’ve trained with the Navy, helped an NFL player get on a team, raced Grand Prix motorcycles… all high stress environments. What works? Train. Eat. Sleep. That’s what works. But wait a second… Enter Dan Brulé and his BREATHWORK. To me THIS technology is the fourth pillar of achievement. It makes a huge difference in performance, and I am all in. Today I might miss a workout, I might miss a meal, but I’ll never miss a breathing session. Welcome to the fourth pillar, and welcome Dan as your coach." -- Oren Klaff, founder of Intersection Capital and author of Pitch Anything“Breath is the ultimate key to your well-being, and if done right, it has the power to transform your entire life—physical, mental, and spiritual. Just Breathe is the definitive breathwork handbook, and Dan Brulé is the master to show you how…I love his coaching and it’s made a huge impact in my life.” -- Tony Robbins, bestselling author and life coach“In Just Breathe, Dan Brule really explains what it means to, as the book says, just breathe. It is a fundamental part of life to breathe, so why not do it correctly? And that is exactly what Dan teaches in this book, how to breathe in a way that lets you be the healthiest you can be, and live your life one amazing breath at a time.” -- David Riklan, founder of SelfGrowth.com"I always start my breathing courses by saying that breathing is simple but it is not easy. Either you JUST let your autonomic nervous system do the job and breathe your life… or you ADJUST your breath and tweak it to its optimal functioning and live the full life you deserve. I love the way Dan gently enters breath mastery through awareness, relaxation and breathing. His 'Wake Up!' 'Let Go!' and 'Take Charge' are the basics of what we all teach, but here in Just Breathe it is so clear and straightforward." -- Dr. David O'Hare, MD, author of 365 Heart Coherence"This book, which embodies Dan’s life work, draws us in, inhales us into a fresh new state of awareness, of seeing how, even in the small moments of each day, we can transform our experiences with conscious breathing. Then it breathes us out into the world with freedom from habits and limitations, with wisdom from ancient traditions and modern science, and with the knowledge that it is quite possible to heal ourselves and others using the power of our breath. Thanks to Dan for this inspirational work!" -- Patricia Gerbarg, MD Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, New York Medical College and coauthor of The Healing Power of the Breath"Most of us have never even considered the gift and value of the breath until something comes in the way of its flow. In Just Breathe, Dan succeeds in sharing a lifetime of experience and wisdom in a way that is accessible and practical but at the same time wakes us up to the magic and mystery of the breath. He makes the simple act of breathing come alive through his passion and deep insight. He guides us to develop a conscious relationship with the breath to optimize every aspect of tour lives. What a gift!" -- Ela Manga, MD, author of My Energy Codes, director of Woodlands Spa and Center for Conscious Living, South Africa"Of all the experts we met during the development of the breathing chair, Dan was one of the most impressive! The breathing techniques and exercises he uses and his approach to breathwork were very new and revolutionary for us. Thanks to Dan, we now understand that breathing not only supplies oxygen to our body and releases C02 but brings our mind, body and soul to an unexpected level. Just Breathe is a guide to not only improving your physical, emotional and psychological health, and your performance, it is also a guide to raising your consciousness.” -- Jean-Louis Portales, inventor of the 02Chair"I have known Dan for many years through the International Breathwork Foundation. I see him as a passionate hunter, having explored, enjoyed and mastered the amazing gift that Life offers us through the breath. That gift, along with all his passion and mastery is what he offers us through Just Breathe. A very practical and inspiring book with a wide range of exercises for our daily life, and also for very specific situations and health issues. Ideal for oneself, but also to use with our peers, clients, patients, pupils and family. Don't resist the temptation to dive into it and let yourself be guided along a life-changing journey!" -- Véronique Batter, MS, Breathwork coach, founder of AlmaNacer, and former President of International Breathwork Foundation

    Book Synopsis**From the bestselling author of THE WALKER''S GUIDE TO OUTDOOR CLUES AND SIGNS and HOW TO READ WATER, The Sunday Times Book Of The Year**Tristan Gooley, author of THE NATURAL NAVIGATOR demonstrates how it is possible to connect profoundly with the lands we travel through, even from the comfort of your living room. In THE NATURAL EXPLORER he combines the work of the some of the most insightful travellers of the past two thousand years with his own experience.The most rewarding travel experiences do not depend on our destination or the length of our journey, but on our levels of awareness. A short walk can compare with an epic journey, when we take the time to focus on the things that dramatically enrich each journey.Exploration is no longer about hardship, long distances, or even venturing beyond the borders of your own home. It is about celebrating the sense of connection and discovery that is possible in all our travels.Trade Review[THE NATURAL EXPLORER] is an essential part of any outdoor/nature-writing library and it's full of wonderful examples of how to read, understand and connect with the landscape. * Country Walking *Using poems, diary entries and letters from nature lovers of ancient Rome to the present day, Gooley has written the perfect book to take out walking - and it would be a crime not to find the time to see, and smell, the roses. * Daily Mail *Discover a whole new world... a journey through the intricate, detailed and often-missed sides of a walk. * Wanderlust *THE NATURAL EXPLORER take us on a multi-sensory, literary journey intent on heightening awareness of our surroundings. An ambitious combination of Gooley's own insights and those of countless other writers, explorer and philosophers, this is serious armchair adventuring. * Prospect Magazine *Gooley returns with a highly readable and engaging work devoted to the temporarily mislaid art of exploration... it's an inspiring account but also a turning point - perhaps a classic in years to come - because its simple aim is to help you recognise what your senses are telling you. It's also an object lesson in how to frame a call to action, because this is a book you can't put down until you absolutely have to get out and start seeing the world as you should. And that's when the adventure really begins... * Countryfile *The Natural Explorer by Tristan Gooley is a call to enrich our travel experiences through connecting with nature - essentially a greater awareness of our surroundings... Chapters include the sky, the earth and time - and as someone who can get around the Tate in about half an hour, I paid particular attention here. * Evening Standard *A charming and intelligent guide to exploring the local landscape. * Financial Times *Celebrated explorer Tristan Gooley gives a fascinating insight into how to connect with nature and heighten the enjoyment of outdoor discoveries, be they grandiose or modest...Are you a traveller or an explorer? This account divorces the two and aims to really open our eyes... * Press Association *The book's key chapter, though, is the first one. Entitled "The Senses", it aims to switch on our powers of perception and, with its thought-provoking discussion of the way we sometimes take touch, taste, smell, hearing and even sight for for granted, it succeeds brilliantly. Did you know, for example, that if you look at a landscape from right to left, rather than from left to right, you will become more observant? * The Scotsman *... Tristan Gooley knows a thing or two about adventure... this is in part a history of exploration, but also a practical guide. * Lonely Planet Magazine *The author's experience is to encourage travellers to be inquisitive about where they are in all its aspects, an intention which I happily endorse. Curiosity is an invaluable trait... this book is particularly relevant to walkers. Walking is the right speed to see, contemplate and learn about landscapes. This book will help you do so. * The Great Outdoors *Gooley shows us how to notice sights, sounds and smells we might have been unaware of, supplementing his own insights with those of travellers, explorers and thinkers of the past. * The Herald *Just as enjoyable for armchair explorers. * Woman's Weekly *
