10 principles for leading your family to True Resilience, from the bestselling author of Spartan Up and the CEO/founder of…
SpartanJoe De Sena has spent his life running toward challenge and discomfort. Why? Because how we react to challenging situations defines us and our families. The only tools we have as humans to survive the many peaks and valleys of a full life are preparedness, health, leadership, and most importantly, resilience. Why do so many parents struggle to finish things we start, delay gratification, and protect our health—and why do our kids continue to struggle in every facet of life? Because we haven’t showed them a path to resilience, and we haven’t fought for it ourselves. In 10 Rules for Resilience Joe De Sena outlines his 10 principles for leading your family to True Resilience, a term he uses for a body and mind that have been carved out of hard work, challenge, and failure. It takes True Resilience to approach overwhelming situations with calm and confidence, to not get rattled, anxious, or angry, and even to embrace failure, setbacks, and redirections.By Surya Das. 1991

Four Agreements takes readers on a mystical Toltec-inspired personal journey, introducing us to a deeper level of spiritual teaching and awareness.In 2002, Don Miguel Ruiz suffered a near fatal heart attack that left him in a nine-weeks-long coma. The spiritual journey he undertook while suspended between this world and the next forms the heart of The Toltec Art of Life and Death, a profound and mystical tale of spiritual struggle. As his body lies unconscious, Ruiz’s spirit encounters the people, ideas, and events that have shaped him, illuminating the eternal struggle between life—unending energy and truth—and death—matter and subjective knowledge—in which we are all called to engage.Over ten years in the making, The Toltec Art of Life and Death invites readers into the mind of a master of spiritual seeking, offering an unparalleled and intimate glimpse into the development of a soul. In this culmination of a lifetime's learning, Ruiz shares with readers the innermost workings of his singular heart and mind, and summons us to grapple with timeless insights, drawn from ancient Toltec wisdom, that are the essence of transformation.By Kelsey Crowe, Emily McDowell. 2017

From Rebecca Campbell, a writer, mystic, devotional creative, and visionary who supports hundreds of thousands of people to connect with their soul and weave the sacred back into their everyday life.It is for those who agreed at soul level to be here at this stage in history to lead this global shift that the mystics of all of the ages have predicted: the return of the mother and the rise of the feminine.Rebecca says: Rise for you, rise for me, when you rise first you rise for She.Many of us have spent much of our working lives &“making it&” in a man&’s world, leaning on patriarchal methods of survival in order to succeed, dulling down our intuition, and ignoring the fierce power of the feminine. We have ignored the cycles of the feminine in order to survive in a patriarchal linear system—but now the world has changed.Here Are Some of the Chapters in Rise, Sister Rise:Part I – Rebecca&’s Story· The Unbinding· The Wise Women· Work Baby· Shakti Rising· Returning to Avalon· Tools for Your RisingPart II – Birthing A New Age· We Were Made for These Times· Shakti Always Rises· The Holy Grail is Within YouPart III – Remembering Our Cyclic Nature· You Are Spirit Earthed· You'll Find Your True Nature in Nature· When Whispers Turn into ShoutsPart IV – Unbinding the Wise, Wild Woman· The Suppression of the Female Voice· The Mystic Always Rises· Finding Mary· The Return of the MagdalenesPart V – Redefining Sisterhood· The Reunion· The Ones Who Came Before Us· When Women Circle· Your Constellation of Sisters· Calling in Your SistersPart VI – Doing the Work· What Is Rising in You?· Rising Feminine Archetypes· New World Rising Birthed by You· Let the Universe Use You· Be a Clear Channel· A Prayer for Times of Remembering· It's Not Your Job to Save the World· Keep on Rising&“I&’m a super-fan of Rebecca Campbell . . .

It is about healing the insecurities, the fears, and the inherited patterns that stop people from trusting the Shakti (power) and wisdom (intuition) that effortlessly flows through them.It's about recognizing all of the ways we have been keeping ourselves contained and restrained in effort to dim to fit into a certain archetype. It&’s about co-creating a whole new archetype—someone who does not keep themself small in order to make others feel more comfortable.Full of activations, spiritual tools, calls to action, contemplative questions, rituals, and confrontational exercises, this inspirational book teaches that it is safe to let Shakti rise, safe to trust your intuition, and safe to take leaps of faith—because in healing ourselves we are healing the world.&“You have an ancient wisdom within you that is waiting for you to remember, hear, and heed it.

strategies and wisdom in a book that&’s been called &“possibly the most inspiring and liberating meditation on love ever written.&”When people and circumstances upset us, how do we deal with them? Often, we feel victimized. We become hurt, angry, and defensive.

He offers resources and additional reading suggestions in the back matter. Hyman uses yogic philosophy, mindfulness teachings, personal anecdotes, and secular wisdom to illuminate each quality and the role it plays in helping us create the life we want.
