By Nancy Colier. 2017
Our reliance on technology is rapidly changing how each of us experiences life. We’re facing new issues and difficulties, we’re…
encountering new emotional triggers, and we’re relating to each other in new ways. As Dr. Nancy Colier writes, "How we spend our time, what motivates us, and what we want are all are on a radical course of transformation." The promise of technology is that it will make our lives easier; yet to realize that promise, we cannot be passive users—we must bring awareness and mindfulness to our relationships with our devices. "The compulsion to constantly check our devices plays on primal instincts," teaches Colier. "Even people with strong spiritual practices or those who have never had other addiction issues now find themselves caught in the subtle trap of these miraculous tools we’ve created." Through The Power of Off, she offers us a path for making use of the virtual world while still feeling good, having healthy relationships, and staying connected with what is genuinely meaningful in life. You’ll explore: How and why today’s devices push our buttons so effectively, and what you can do to take back control of your life • Tips for navigating the increasingly complex ways in which technology is affecting our relationships—with ourselves, others, and our devices themselves • Self-evaluation tools for bringing greater awareness to your use of technology • Mindfulness practices for helping you interact with your devices in more conscious ways • A 30-day digital detox program to kick-start a new healthier relationship with technology With The Power of Off, Colier sounds the call for wakefulness, reminding us that we can use technology in a way that promotes, rather than detracts from, our well-being. This book provides an essential resource for anyone wanting to create a more empowered relationship with technology in the digital age.Drugged: The Science And Culture Behind Psychotropic Drugs
By Richard J. Miller. 2015
"Morphine," writes Richard J. Miller, "is the most significant chemical substance mankind has ever encountered." So ancient that remains of…
poppies have been found in Neolithic tombs, it is the most effective drug ever discovered for treating pain. "Whatever advances are made in medicine," Miller adds, "nothing could really be more important than that." And yet, when it comes to mind-altering substances, morphine is only a cc or two in a vast river that flows through human civilization, ranging LSD to a morning cup of tea. In DRUGGED, Miller takes readers on an eye-opening tour of psychotropic drugs, describing the various kinds, how they were discovered and developed, and how they have played multiple roles in virtually every culture. The vast scope of chemicals that cross the blood-brain barrier boggle the very brain they reach: cannabis and cocaine, antipsychotics and antidepressants, alcohol, amphetamines, and Ecstasy-and much more. Literate and wide-ranging, Miller weaves together science and history, telling the story of the undercover theft of 20,000 tea plants from China by a British spy, for example, the European discovery of coffee and chocolate, and how James Wolfgang von Goethe, the famous man of letters, first isolated the alkaloid we now know as caffeine. Miller explains what scientists know-and don't-about the impact of each drug on the brain, down to the details of neurotransmitters and their receptors. He clarifies the differences between morphine and heroin, mescaline and LSD, and other similar substances. Drugged brims with surprises, revealing the fact that antidepressant drugs evolved from the rocket fuel that shot V2 rockets into London during World War II, highlighting the role of hallucinogens in the history of religion, and asking whether Prozac can help depressed cats. Entertaining and authoritative, Drugged is a truly fascinating book.The Calling: 3 Fundamental Shifts to Stay True, Get Paid, and Do Good

By Paul Rodney Turner. 2020
Direttore internazionale di Food for Life Global www.ffl.org, la più grande rete mondiale di progetti di aiuto alimentare a base vegetale,…
Paul Rodney Turner ha pubblicato un nuovo libro nel settore dell’auto-aiuto chiamato Il Potere dellAnima – Cinque Nobili Verità per una Vita di Successo che scaturisce dai suoi 35 anni di esperienza come praticante del Bhagavad-gita. Questo è il seguito del suo precedente libro, FOOD YOGA – Nourishing Body, Mind & Soul, valutato con 5 stelle, con il quale è diventato famoso in tutto il mondo come lo yogi del cibo. “Una sera a New York, mentre sedevo al tavolo con la penna in mano e mi sentivo un po’ scoraggiato, mi sono fatto una semplice domanda: cosa c’è di speciale in me? Ho lasciato che la mia penna scorresse senza pensare troppo alle risposte, e con mia sorpresa ho finito per scrivere cinque affermazioni che per coincidenza iniziano tutte con la lettera P. Facili da ricordare e, come vedrai, toccano il nucleo più vero della nostra esistenza. Così sono nate quelle che io chiamo le Cinque Grandi Verità che oggi mi servono da guida nella vita: Io sono Potente; io sono Protetto; Io sono Perfetto; Io sono Prasadam; Io sono Prospero;” spiega. La speranza di Turner è che queste affermazioni diano alle persone la determinazione, la forza e la saggezza di cui hanno bisogno per avere successo nella vita così come gli ricordino di quanto siano eccezionali in quanto anime spirituali. Approfondendo il significato di ciascuna affermazione, Turner ha attinto agli insegnamenti di numerose tradizioni esoteriche e spirituali, con una preferenza speciale per le scritture vediche. “Essenzialmente, stavo scrivendo questo libro per me stesso,” dice. “E mentre digitavo ogni parola, assumevo il ruolo di un amico empatico che offre il proprio incoraggiamento.

simple lifestyle change with such enormous health benefits that, if it was turned into a drug, would be the most valuable drug in the world? The answer is movement and the good news is that it's free, easy and available to everyone. Four in ten British adults, and 80% of children, are so sedentary they don&’t meet even the minimum recommended levels for movement. What&’s going on? The answer is simple: activity became exercise. What for centuries was universal and everyday has become the fetishised pursuit of a minority, whether the superhuman feats of elite athletes, or a chore slotted into busy schedules. Yes, most people know physical activity is good for us. And yet 1.5 billion people around the world are so inactive they are at greater risk of everything from heart disease to diabetes, cancer, arthritis and depression, even dementia. Sedentary living now kills more people than obesity, despite receiving much less attention, and is causing a pandemic of chronic ill health many experts predict could soon bankrupt the NHS. How did we get here? Daily, constant exertion was an integral part of humanity for millennia, but in just a few decades movement was virtually designed out of people&’s lives through transformed workplaces, the dominance of the car, and a built environment which encourages people to be static. In a world now also infiltrated by ubiquitous screens, app-summoned taxis and shopping delivered to your door, it can be shocking to realise exactly how sedentary many of us are. A recent study found almost half of middle-aged English people don&’t walk continuously for ten minutes or more in an average month. At current trends, scientists forecast, the average US adult will expend little more energy in an average week than someone who spent all their time in bed. This book is a chronicle of this very modern and largely unexplored catastrophe, and the story of the people trying to turn it around. Through interviews with experts in various fields - doctors, scientists, architects and politicians - Peter Walker explores how to bring more movement into the modern world and, most importantly, into your life. Forget the gym, introducing quick and easy lifestyle changes can slow down the ageing process and even reverse many illnesses and increase mental wellbeing.My Intense Emotions Handbook: Manage Your Emotions and Connect Better with Others
