Mindfulness for Compassionate Living: Mindful ways to less stress and more kindness

by Patrizia Collard

Self-compassion is a life-changing way of thinking that is rooted in Mindfulness.

The self-compassion movement has been growing rapidly over the past two years with recent research into the neuroscience of compassion showing that changing our thinking habits makes new neural pathways in the brain - and that compassion can be learned. The benefits of this practice are personal and global, from learning to manage chronic pain to relieving stress, boosting the immune system and circulation, along with improving relationships as we connect more authentically with others.

The Mindfulness Survival Kit

by Thich Nhat Hanh

The Five Mindfulness Trainings (also referred to as "Precepts")—not to kill, steal, commit adultery, lie, or take intoxicants—are the basic statement of ethics and morality in Buddhism. Zen Master and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh argues eloquently for their applicability in our daily lives and on a global scale. Nhat Hanh discusses the value and meaning of each precept, offering insights into the role that it could play in our changing society.Thich Nhat Hanh calls the trainings a "diet for a mindful society." With this book he offers a Buddhist contribution to the current thinking on how we can come together to define secular, moral guidelines that will allow us to explore and sustain a sane, compassionate, and healthy way of living. The Five Mindfulness Trainings offer a path to restoring meaning and value in our world, whether called virtues, ethics, moral conduct, or precepts they are guidelines for living without bringing harm to others.

The Ministry of Thin: How the Pursuit of Perfection Got Out of Control

by Emma Woolf

We're obsessed with weight, we dislike our bodies, we worry about the food we eat, we feel guilty, we diet. Too many of us are locked into a war with our own bodies which we'll never win, and which will never make us happy. The Ministry of Thin takes a controversial, unflinching look at how the modern, international obsession with weight loss, youth, beauty, and perfection has spun out of control. Emma Woolf, author of An Apple a Day, explores how we might all be able to stop hating and start liking our own bodies again. She rallies against the industries of food, health, exercise, beauty, sex, and surgery that seek to create a world that verges on the Orwellian -with the victims of this onslaught trapped and dominated by the societal pressures to conform.And she dares to ask: if losing weight is the answer, what is the question?

by Pilar Ordóñez

Sexo manual para mujeres abiertas. ¡Bienvenidas al tupper sex! «Intentando cambiar las estadísticas y entendiendo que la información es poder me pareció vital que las mujeres conociéramos nuestro cuerpo y nuestra sexualidad, si es que pretendíamos controlar nuestras relaciones. <P><P>Así que hice unas cuantas entrevistas a mujeres de distintos perfiles. Me documenté y llegué a la conclusión de que había que explicar las relaciones sexuales de una manera más didáctica y con mucho humor insistiendo en toda la curva de la sexualidad femenina desde la adolescencia, pasando por la menopausia y más allá. <P><P>Me inventé un sketch cómico que disfracé con un tupper sex (reunión de mujeres para hablar de sexo con venta de juguetes eróticos) y me dediqué a transformar el salón de cualquier casa en una sala alternativa de teatro donde representaba el show con una maleta cargada con cremas de olores, sabores afrodisíacos, vibradores, lencería, ungüentos de masaje... ¿el resultado? MISS tupper SEX». Pilar Ordóñez <P> La actriz Pilar Ordóñez pone a disposición del gran público sus experiencias vividas durante sus tupper y ofrece en MISs tupper SEX testimonios de mujeres que ponen de manifiesto lo que gusta o no al género femenino. Una obra divertida y ágil, una nueva forma de hablar de sexo sin pudor, imprescindible para aquellas que no se acercan a un sex shop, que no se atreven a comprar o que ni siquiera lo comparten con su pareja, relegando su sexualidad al ámbito privado.
