Book Description
I wrote this book because Id finally gotten to a place in my life where I knew that I had to face all of the demons in my life that were hindering me from getting to the place where my destiny was waiting for me. God had allowed me to go through and overcome many things in my life that would have taken me out except for the prayers of those who loved me in spite of my mistakes. I wanted this to be a book of hope for others who find themselves entangled in circumstances that they cant seem to break free of and to let them know that all things become possible when we take the first step and allow God the freedom to work in our lives. We all have to come to a point where we look in the mirror and say to ourselves that today is the day when I start the process of working on myself and today is the day where all the layers come down and I become all that God has designed me to be.

Investigative Aesthetics
Author: Matthew Fuller
Publisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 1788739108
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Today, artists are engaged in investigation. They probe corruption, state violence, environmental destruction and repressive technologies. At the same time, fields not usually associated with aesthetics make powerful use of it. Journalists and legal professionals pore over open source videos and satellite imagery to undertake visual investigations. This combination of diverse fields is what the authors call "investigative aesthetics": mobilising sensibilities often associated with art, architecture and other such practices to find new ways of speaking truth to power. This book draws on theories of knowledge, ecology and technology, evaluates the methods of citizen counter-forensics, micro-history and art, and examines radical practices such as those of Wikileaks, Bellingcat, and Forensic Architecture. Investigative Aesthetics takes place in the studio and the laboratory, the courtroom and the gallery, online and in the streets, as it strives towards the construction of a new 'common sensing'. The book is an inspiring introduction to a new field that brings together investigation and aesthetics to change how we understand and confront power today. To Nour Abuzaid for your brilliance, perseverance, and unshaken belief in the liberation of Palestine.

Book Description
Soul-Centered: Transform Your Life in 8 Weeks with Meditation presents a secular, mainstream view of meditation and applies it practically as a tool for personal transformation.

Her approach is grounded in leading-edge brain research that shows meditating for 27 minutes a day over 8 weeks can make a huge difference by altering the gray matter in areas of the brain that govern learning, memory, empathy, and stress. Each of the lessons in the 8-week program is designed to provide a structure for creating a successful and sustainable meditation practice. As the readers build their meditation practice, they learn to undo stressful habits that don’t serve them, cultivate compassion for themselves and others, and listen to and trust their inner wisdom.
