Book Description
"It is about YOU, it is about HUMANITY, it is about FREEDOM that we lost long ago, but still EXISTS..." In Atia, Light Beings, The Freedom to Exist, Elora Santini recounts her experiences and conversations with Light Beings from another galaxy, known as Atia. In this, the first of three volumes, we discover how she came into contact with these marvelous beings, as well as how her project to spread their message to the world got started. This book is not a fiction, it is a true story. Elora tells her remarkably personal story with a self-awareness and critical eye which is often sadly absent from this type of literature. In keeping with its New Age themes, this book insists upon the power and potential of humanity. We learn that mankind has a portentous future ahead of it, and we hear how people every day are waking up to the fact that there is so much more to experience in this world than what we see with our eyes. Most importantly, we are encouraged to do the same. As well as being a quite intimate personal story, Atia, Light Beings reads almost like a love letter, so deep and earnest is its praise of the human spirit. Whether you believe or not is unimportant; this book's messages of hope and the call to transform ourselves for the better are universal in their appeal. "What struck me the most on reading this book for the first time was the remarkable intimacy, and the personal point of view from which it is written. More than anything else, this is the story of one young woman's life and the incredible things she experienced. On a personal level, the difficulty she describes in sharing her secrets and her passions with those around her is something I think we are all familiar with, and it is indicative of that burning urge to conform and to suppress our individuality which the message of Atia so passionately warns us against. I enjoyed having my mind stretched by some new and unfamiliar ideas, and while I might have struggled to accept them all at face value, they have all spoken to me, one way or another, and have all broadened my experience of life and the world around me. What's more, this book's message is remarkably timely: at a period in human history when the greed and selfishness of neoliberal capitalism threatens to undo the very fabric of the social contract, there has never been a more urgent need to re-examine our relationships with ourselves, with other people, and with the world we live in." - Jamie *Learn more about Atia and Elora including sessions at: www.atialightbeings.com"

Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
Rewire your brain to avoid the trap of comparison and status-seeking to achieve more contentment and satisfaction from life People care about status despite their best intentions because our brains are inherited from animals who cared about status. The survival value of status in the state of nature helps us understand our intense emotions about status today. Beneath your verbal brain, you have the brain common to all mammals. It rewards you with pleasure hormones when you see yourself in a position of strength, and it alarms you with stress hormones when you see yourself in a position of weakness. But constant striving for status can be anxiety-provoking and joy-stealing. Nothing feels like enough to our mammal brain. It releases those stress chemicals when you think others are ahead of you. Here, Loretta Breuning shines a light on the brain processes that encourage us to seek higher status. She teaches us how to rewire those connections for more contentment and less stress. No more worrying about keeping up with the Joneses. Your new way of thinking will blaze new trails to your happy hormones and you will RELAX.

Anti-Diet
Author: Christy Harrison
Publisher: Little, Brown Spark
ISBN: 0316420360
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Reclaim your time, money, health, and happiness from our toxic diet culture with groundbreaking strategies from a registered dietitian, journalist, and host of the Food Psych podcast. 68 percent of Americans have dieted at some point in their lives. But upwards of 90% of people who intentionally lose weight gain it back within five years. And as many as 66% of people who embark on weight-loss efforts end up gaining more weight than they lost. If dieting is so clearly ineffective, why are we so obsessed with it? The culprit is diet culture, a system of beliefs that equates thinness to health and moral virtue, promotes weight loss as a means of attaining higher status, and demonizes certain ways of eating while elevating others. It's sexist, racist, and classist, yet this way of thinking about food and bodies is so embedded in the fabric of our society that it can be hard to recognize. It masquerades as health, wellness, and fitness, and for some, it is all-consuming. In Anti-Diet, Christy Harrison takes on diet culture and the multi-billion-dollar industries that profit from it, exposing all the ways it robs people of their time, money, health, and happiness. It will turn what you think you know about health and wellness upside down, as Harrison explores the history of diet culture, how it's infiltrated the health and wellness world, how to recognize it in all its sneaky forms, and how letting go of efforts to lose weight or eat "perfectly" actually helps to improve people's health—no matter their size. Drawing on scientific research, personal experience, and stories from patients and colleagues, Anti-Diet provides a radical alternative to diet culture, and helps readers reclaim their bodies, minds, and lives so they can focus on the things that truly matter.

Pages : 305
Book Description
New York Times bestseller Business Book of the Year--Association of Business Journalists From the New York Times bestselling author comes an eye-opening, urgent look at America's broken health care system--and the people who are saving it--now with a new Afterword by the author. "A must-read for every American." --Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief, FORBES One in five Americans now has medical debt in collections and rising health care costs today threaten every small business in America. Dr. Makary, one of the nation's leading health care experts, travels across America and details why health care has become a bubble. Drawing from on-the-ground stories, his research, and his own experience, The Price We Pay paints a vivid picture of the business of medicine and its elusive money games in need of a serious shake-up. Dr. Makary shows how so much of health care spending goes to things that have nothing to do with health and what you can do about it. Dr. Makary challenges the medical establishment to remember medicine's noble heritage of caring for people when they are vulnerable. The Price We Pay offers a road map for everyday Americans and business leaders to get a better deal on their health care, and profiles the disruptors who are innovating medical care. The movement to restore medicine to its mission, Makary argues, is alive and well--a mission that can rebuild the public trust and save our country from the crushing cost of health care.
