Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Every one of us experience issues of mental health at some point. Stress, anxiety, and depression are common states that affect our minds. By selfenquiry we can realize that there is only one universal consciousness, called the Self. We are able to tap into states of higher consciousness and move… toward healing and wholeness. From a wealth of experience, both spiritual and practical, Dr. Akshya Vasudev offers a very relatable framework for understanding our true nature and offers methods of being centered in the Self. Meditation exercises and breath work are included as ways to relieve stress and anxiety and increase awareness of the universal Truth, allowing healing and restoration of mental health. Through self-enquiry, regular reflection and a contemplation practice, we can get glimpses of our true nature, which is existence, awareness, and bliss.Rooted in Hindu religion, or Sanatana Dharma, this book blends knowledge of ancient Vedanta with modern cognitive behaviour therapy. Using this combination of Eastern traditions and Western practices, we have immense potential to be healed, not by something or someone, but by our own Self, our own Divine nature.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In a world where the Supernatural exists, you'd think bullies and homophobes would be the least of my problems. But when you lived in the quiet, beachside town of Ryterville, South Carolina, anything was possible. Everything there was routine, picturesque, and simple. Made to fit the mold seventy… years ago and never changed. So, naturally, when a new family who didn't fit the mold moved in, it didn't take long for everyone to know. I met Sebastian Hwang after getting embarrassingly beaten up by my bully, Rachel. He asked if I was okay and ended up being in two of my classes. He sat with me at lunch the first day he arrived, and things went on from there. If only I knew how involved our lives would get. How entangled and destined our fates were. I played classical piano, and he was a ballet dancer. My high school put on an annual talent competition where you combine two or more of the performing arts, and I asked him to perform with me. Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake. In the dizzying whirlwind of romance, secrets, a talent competition, and the Supernatural; there was no way to predict what would happen next. Let's just hope it wasn't death. (It was almost death). .

She certainly wasn't looking for epiphanies or personal transformation, but when her husband suddenly announces that he's leaving her for another woman-one able to give him the child that she could not-she can't help but start re-evaluating her entire life. She doesn't like what she sees. So, after a cathartic awakening leaves her energized and present in her own body, in ways she's never experienced before, she leaves everything behind to start a new life, in a new place, with no expectations or obligations beyond simply being true to herself-whatever that might look like. Settling down in Saskatoon, Mavis soon finds herself opening up to the world around her in novel ways as she begins to explore both her new home and her own heart. Then something inside of her shifts. People she's never even met are drawn to her and start volunteering their stories, seeming to somehow sense they can trust both their secrets and their precious possessions to her safekeeping. Before long, her life is full to overflowing with rich emotions and poignant memories-none of them her own. As her collection of stories and entrusted treasures grows and starts to take on a life of its own, in ways no one could have predicted, Mavis finds herself torn between the desire to remain open and receptive to other people-and the need to protect herself.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The Next Chapter proposes that our lifestyles, homes, and escapes are not places, things, or events but rather mindsets shaped by expectations and priorities we have set for ourselves and our futures. And then The Next Chapter gets right down to providing tools to help mid-life people change thos…e mindsets to create the future they truly want.Through their long careers as realtors, working with clients at important crossroads in their lives, the authors have witnessed the regenerative potential a midlife crisis can bring and discovered that there's a 'reboot' option to create a better future. Practical, inspirational, and highly readable, The Next Chapter tackles wide-ranging issues common to those of us in midlife such as: adjusting positively to unexpected financial reverses, identifying personal priorities, coping with loss, creating a 'bucket list,' choosing a retirement lifestyle, buying a new home, and even keeping one's assets out of the hands of self-serving lawyers in the unfortunate event of a divorce.Through an examination of the foundational building blocks that shape our belief systems, they have devised a system to help you navigate what's ahead on your life's journey. Warm, wise, and empathetic, the authors use 'case studies' of people's mid-life stories and a well-constructed system of deep questions and practical steps to help you determine the future you really want and steer your way to it.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Her whole life, Lai was told that she'd only live to see eighteen years. In the seemingly utopian community she grew up in, scientists calculated residents' life expectancies at birth, and that number defined their place within their society. When Lai was given the number eighteen in a community…where numbers over one hundred are the norm, her life was considered all but meaningless. As her eighteenth birthday approached, Lai became determined not to be defined by her death date, and then everything started to unravel. After escaping the only life she'd ever known, in a community that she had been taught was all that was left of humanity, Lai is now faced with something even more terrifying: the truth. The Silent Spaces picks up where The Quiet Limit left off, following Lai as she navigates past losses, present confusion, and future uncertainties. She must find a way to survive, all while refusing to give up on those she left behind.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The 1960s was a period of radical social change. Many young people rejected the politics and values of the day and decided to 'drop out' and migrate to the country. The desire for an independent rural life on the land took many of them to the province of Nova Scotia. To the 'back-to-the-landers,'… its 'far-out' location, unspoiled countryside, cheap land and helpful neighbours provided the opportunity to build a self-sufficient life. Inexperienced and unprepared, many eventually left, but some were able to adjust and build satisfying lives while contributing to their communities. Like most immigrants they brought with them new ideas and practices such as alternative energy, organic gardening, health foods, environmentalism, creative arts and crafts and new enterprises. In return their neighbors shared their traditional culture, history and knowledge.Author and sociologist Chris Murphy uses personal experience, oral history and the photography and art of his brother Peter Murphy and partner Anna Syperek to write this missing chapter of Nova Scotian history. This unusual migration story is a timely one for today's new generation of rural migrants and homesteaders and serves as a nostalgic re ection for those who lived through the transformative 'Sixties'.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In the spring of 1750, cellist Carl Barth, a music student at Leipzig's St. Thomas, is assigned to assist the school's aging cantor, Johann Sebastian Bach. Though initially uncertain of his new role, Barth's confidence and musicianship blossom under Bach's tutelage. With each musical revelation,…among them his accidental discovery of the missing manuscript of Bach's cello suites, the young man becomes increasingly enamored of his master's genius. But the arrival of a haughty English surgeon will irrevocably alter the existence of both teacher and student. When Bach dies after a supposedly routine operation intended to remedy his failing eyesight, Barth's life trajectory is recast. Bereft of his musical mentor and haunted by events past, he sets out on a journey to confront the man he holds responsible for his master's untimely passing, all the while persevering to honor Bach's musical legacy.In this gripping novel, cellist and author Marc Moskovitz transports the reader into the milieu of 18th-century Europe-its cobblestone streets, music-filled churches, and a vividly imagined Bach household-a world where the practice of medicine was often rudimentary, travel was arduous, and the works of J. S. Bach had yet to be universally discovered. Based on true events and rich in musical and historical detail, The Eyes of Bach is a sweeping tale of one man's unrelenting search for truth.

Dedhar (1900-1978), an entrepreneur in Eldoret, Kenya. After migrating from Zanzibar to Eldoret in search of a better life and opportunities, Hassanali marries and opens a small shop…. This modest life is only the beginning of a grander adventure. Composed from interviews, research, and personal anecdotes, this biography details the social and cultural histories of Eldoret, the Ismaili community, and one extensive family from India to East Africa to Canada.The book is a beautiful blend of research, interviews, and memories. Many of the recollections, facts, and historical background are poignant and continue to be relevant. Including first- and second-hand accounts contextualizes the history of the times and places discussed. It also shows the consequences of history for real people.The history is also layered. Sometimes, the focus is political and societal, other times it's familial and sociological. The specific details and descriptions of daily life, customs, and cultures engages readers.The pictures are beautiful and bring the stories alive. Like the specific descriptions, these have an immersive element to them. These also give the reader a sense that because many of these images are from personal, familial collections, they wouldn't be able to see these pictures elsewhere unless they read the book.

But technology is shifting quickly, and the new radar-directed armaments aboard US ships might just be the key to turning the tide.So, when the Japanese make their move on Pearl Harbor and… America is thrust to the frontline, there is only one man for the job: Lieutenant Scott Ellsworth, a young naval academy graduate eager for sea duty, whose unique training with the new technology makes him the ideal candidate for introducing it to his peers. But Scott has a secret: he prefers the company of men.Both a thoughtful imagining of what life was like for a gay man serving in World War II and a thorough bringing-to-life of the Navy's innovations in radar technology at the time, Proceedings of the Gun Club is a one-of-a-kind work of historical fiction. Thrown into sea duty aboard USS Washington, one of the first American battleships equipped with radar-directed fire control, Scott must contend with the condescension and dismissiveness of his superiors and peers being introduced to radar, as well as all the regular politicking required of a naval servicemember. Along the way, intrigue ensues with the mysterious overboard disappearance of the ship's admiral, and all the while, Scott must find a way to obscure his sexual orientation-though his introduction, when on assignment, to a handsome British officer might complicate things.Full of mystery, romance, and incredible historical detail, The Proceedings of the Gun Club: Atlantic Overture is sure to make a thrilling addition to the bookshelves of readers of all kinds, including World War II afficionados and lovers of gay romance alike.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Earth is facing a coming ice age. Humanity has marshalled its technology and resources in an attempt to delay the great cold; a diversion necessary to maintain hope for the people. But some few know the truth. There is little hope left on Earth. But there may still be hope in the stars. Michael,…ward of the church since childhood is summoned for humanity's most ambitious and secret undertaking. Shepard the human race to a new home. Finished construction, 240 million kilometres from the sun is the Ark. The ship designed to carry one half million souls in suspended animation to a new world. But the mission of the Ark is more than simply saving the human species. Its creator, the New Unified Church must save the human spirit and accomplish what humanity never attempted; bring together the religions of the world and expunge the ancient hatreds that dominate doctrine. But the cost to the church will be its very existence. In order to unify, all agree that the Ark must not carry the symbols, books or even the knowledge of any of the old religions. To survive, humanity must lose God and have faith that God will find them in the stars.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In 1860, Cary Castle was built by George Hunter Cary in Victoria, the bustling Gold Rush capital of Vancouver Island. Cary was the brilliant 'Boy Attorney-General,' unethical, unpopular and mentally disturbed-one of the colony's vi…vid early characters.In 1865 Governor Arthur Kennedy forced the parsimonious Legislative Assembly to purchase the mansion as Vancouver Island's Government House. After 1871, it became the vice-regal residence of the new province of British Columbia which it remained until it burned down in 1899.Defectively built and uncomfortable to live in, prone to drafts, fires and water leakage, it nevertheless reflected the character and heritage of Victoria and played an important role in the history of the province and Canada. The venue of elegant social events, as well as personal dramas, the mansion hosted British royalty, governors general, naval officers and local political leaders, and could have become a Canadian historic site.Cary Castle was also a family home for vice-regal couples where babies were born, boys slid down the bannister in the main hall, nasty diseases were endured and the Chinese 'help' was indispensable.Based on personal memoirs and letters, government documents, newspaper articles, photographs and plans, this book recreates how that idiosyncratic mansion looked and even smelled. Professor Martin Segger described Dr. Taylor's earlier study, The Birdcages. British Columbia's First Legislative Buildings (Friesen, 2020), as 'a significant contribution, [with] fascinating detail, [and] a highly readable writing style.' (Ormsby Review, April 22, 2020) Between Heaven and Balmoral expands the picture of colonial Victoria developed in The Birdcages and will appeal to readers interested in Victoria's history, especially its early social and architectural development. 180 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book of poems conveys experiences in the life of the poet, with occasional conjuring through the eyes of other beings. The poems range from the intimate to the universal. Wonder, grief and humor intertwine throughout the book, someti…mes all in a single piece. The pilgrimage of the title refers to both specific rambles and the long journey through this precious world. The poet hopes the reader finds recognition, surprise and pleasure in these pages.Tom McKoy's poetry is derived from what William Carlos Williams called the American Grain, and he shares with Williams a sense of wonder at the quotidian world as well as a kind of writing that is lucid and unaffected. The language is clear, direct, honest, with no pretentions, no false moves, no grand rhetorical gestures. The poems in the book are arranged and sequenced beautifully and the voicing of each poem is nigh perfect. Simply put, these poems are a pleasure.Joseph Stroud, author of Of This World 96 pp. Englisch.
