Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics: A 10% Happier How-to Book
by Carlye Adler Dan Harris Jeffrey WarrenFrom the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling memoir 10% Happier, this book will get you to meditate. Minus the pan flutes. “If you’re like many people, you’re intrigued by the promise of meditation but don’t know how to begin—or you’ve benefited from meditation in the past but need help to get started again. If so, Dan Harris has written the book for you.”—Gretchen Rubin, author of The Four Tendencies and The Happiness Project ABC News anchor Dan Harris used to think that meditation was for people who collect crystals, play Ultimate Frisbee, and use the word “namaste” without irony. After he had a panic attack on live television, he went on a strange and circuitous journey that ultimately led him to become one of meditation’s most vocal public proponents. Here’s what he’s fixated on now: Science suggests that meditation can lower blood pressure, mitigate depression and anxiety, and literally rewire key parts of the brain, among numerous other benefits. And yet there are millions of people who want to meditate but aren’t actually practicing. What’s holding them back? In Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics, Harris and his friend Jeff Warren, a masterful teacher and “Meditation MacGyver,” embark on a cross-country quest to tackle the myths, misconceptions, and self-deceptions that stop people from meditating. They rent a rock-star tour bus (whose previous occupants were Parliament Funkadelic) and travel across eighteen states, talking to scores of would-be meditators—including parents, military cadets, police officers, and even a few celebrities. They create a taxonomy of the most common issues (“I suck at this,” “I don’t have the time,” etc.) and offer up science-based life hacks to help people overcome them. The book is filled with game-changing and deeply practical meditation instructions. You’ll also get access to the 10% Happier app, where you can listen for free to guided audio versions of all the meditations in the book. Amid it all unspools the strange and hilarious story of what happens when a congenitally sarcastic, type-A journalist and a groovy Canadian mystic embark on an epic road trip into America’s neurotic underbelly, as well as their own.
Boys and Their Toys: Understanding Men By Understanding Their Relationship With Gadgets
by Bill AdlerThe key to understanding men is in understanding how they relate to their gadgets. Just because they may seem to show more interest in their computers...or their remote controls...or their fancy watches or their power mowers or their stereos...doesn't mean that their toys are really the most important things in their life. In Boys and Their Toys, bestselling author Bill Adler, Jr. explains how men use toys to assert their independence and freedom, relieve stress, connect to their lost childhood, and even express their nurturing side (without having to admit it). Written in Adler's fun, humorous style, the book reveals how women can: * learn how a man's interest in particular ""toys"" can be used to predict his behavior * know when a guy's passion for gadgets crosses the line into obsession and what to do about it * take advantage of the human-gadget relationship to improve the human-human relationship. Smart and funny, Boys and Their Toys helps readers understand what makes their men tick...and grow closer with them in the process.

La Sanidad Divina Aun Es El Pan De Los Hijos
by Dr Gilbert Adimora DIEGO F. CRUZ G.Uno de los temas que la gente debate y que ha debatido por cientos de años es si la sanidad divina aun se da. Muchas personas se ríen y hablan con cinismo acerca de cualquier reclamo de sanidad divina, dicen que es manipulación por parte de gente astuta que dice ser “un siervo de Dios”. La sanidad divina aun ocurre y soy testigo viviente de que Dios sana a mucha gente de enfermedades que se han diagnosticado como incurables. Quizá por problemas de logística usted no pueda asistir a una cruzada de sanidad organizada por algún hombre de Dios. Aun si logra llegar, quizá no reciba sanidad por razones que solo el Sanador conoce. Pero su Palabra siempre está disponible (Romanos 10:8). Dios ha hecho de su Palabra uno de los mayores, si no el mayor, de los instrumentos para que la sanidad esté a nuestra disposición en todo momento, en todo lugar. Sin embargo, la ignorancia y el desconocimiento han provocado la muerte de algunos cuando no debían morir. Quizá “el diablo, como león rugiente, anda alrededor buscando a quien devorar” (I Pedro 5:8), pero la Palabra de Dios es más que suficiente para cada situación. Conforme avance a través de esta compilación, lo que Dios le pide es que ejercite fe en el poder de Su Palabra y recibirá su sanidad.
Cura Divina
by Dr Gilbert AdimoraUm assunto sobre o qual as pessoas debatem muito, e que vem acontecendo há séculos, é se a cura divina ainda ocorre nos dias de hoje. Muitos chegam a zombar, e se referem, cinicamente, a quaisquer alegações de cura divina como sendo uma manipulação por pessoas espertas que se dizem eleitas de Deus. A cura divina ainda acontece, e eu sou uma testemunha viva de que Deus continua curando doenças, inclusive as consideradas incuráveis. Algumas vezes, você, por causa de problemas logísticos, não consegue participar de uma cruzada de cura organizada por um homem ungido por Deus. E mesmo quando comparece, muitas vezes nem todos os que veem para a cura a recebem; e a razão disso só O DIVINO CURADOR pode revelar. Mas A PALAVRA dele está sempre disponível (Romanos 10: 8). Deus fez de sua palavra um dos mais, se não o mais, acessíveis instrumentos de cura disponível ao homem para que possa ser aplicado a qualquer hora, em qualquer lugar. No entanto, a ignorância, a falta de conhecimento, fizeram com que muitos perecessem quando não deveriam. O diabo caça como um leão – rugindo e procurando a quem devorar; mesmo assim, teme a Palavra de Deus, pois ela é mais do que suficiente para enfrentar qualquer situação. Enquanto você aprecia esta pequena compilação das escrituras direcionadas à cura divina, tenha em mente que o que Deus requer é a de fé na potência da Palavra dele para que a benção desejada aconteça.
Guérir encore le pain des enfants
by Dr Gilbert AdimoraL'un des sujets sur lesquels les gens débattent encore, qui dure depuis des siècles, est de savoir si la guérison divine a toujours lieu. Beaucoup de gens rient et se réfèrent cyniquement à toute revendication de guérison divine comme rien d'autre que de la manipulation par des gens intelligents qui prétendent être des hommes de Dieu. La guérison divine a toujours lieu et je suis un témoin vivant que Dieu guérit encore beaucoup de gens de maladies qui ont même été qualifiées d'incurables. En raison de problèmes logistiques, vous ne pourrez peut-être pas assister à une croisade de guérison organisée par un homme de Dieu oint. Même lorsque vous y arrivez plusieurs fois, tout ce qui est venu pour la guérison ne le reçoit pas pour des raisons mieux connues du guérisseur. Mais sa parole est toujours disponible (Romains 10: 8). Dieu a fait de sa parole l'un des instruments de guérison les plus, sinon les plus portables, dont dispose l'homme pour qu'elle puisse être appliquée à tout moment et en tout lieu. Cependant, l'ignorance et le manque de connaissances ont fait que beaucoup périssent alors qu'ils ne devraient pas. Le diable peut se déplacer comme un lion rugissant à la recherche de qui dévorer, mais il sait toujours que la Parole de Dieu est plus que suffisante pour toute situation. En parcourant cette petite compilation, ce que Dieu exige de vous, c'est d'avoir foi en la puissance de sa parole et vous recevrez votre guérison.

Méditation: Guide de méditation complet sur le bonheur et la recherche de la paix intérieure
by Adidas Wilson et Maximus WilsonSelon Aristote, les gens peuvent choisir d'être heureux. Une nouvelle étude montre qu'il est possible pour vous de développer un cerveau plus heureux physiquement en utilisant des pratiques telles que la méditation. La science a déjà déterminé les hormones qui provoquent des émotions comme le désir ou le plaisir, mais personne n'a été en mesure de dire avec certitude d'où viennent les sentiments de bien-être et de contentement général. Les scientifiques de l'Université de Kyoto ont cherché à obtenir la réponse. Ils ont rassemblé 51 volontaires et ont demandé à chacun d'eux d'évaluer leur propre niveau de bonheur. Ils ont ensuite scanné le cerveau des volontaires pour essayer de voir s'il y avait des différences entre les individus mornes et optimistes. Étonnamment, les personnes les plus heureuses avaient un précunéus plus grand (une zone du cerveau). Cela signifie que vous pouvez travailler le bonheur comme un muscle. Certaines études dans le passé ont montré qu'il est possible de stimuler la matière grise dans votre précunéus avec une méditation régulière. Cela explique pourquoi les méditants éprouvent des sentiments de félicité et même de contentement général. Le scientifique qui a supervisé cette étude a déclaré que les médecins pouvaient désormais mesurer les choses qui augmentent le bonheur chez les gens.
Meditação: Um Guia Completo de Meditação Para a Felicidade, Alívio do Stress, Consciência e Paz Interior
by Adidas Wilson & Maximus WilsonDe acordo com Aristóteles, as pessoas podem escolher serem felizes. Um novo estudo mostra que é possível que você desenvolva um cérebro mais feliz fisicamente utilizando práticas como a meditação. A ciência já determinou as hormonas que dão origem às emoções como o desejo ou o prazer, mas ninguém foi capaz de dizer com certeza de onde vêm os sentimentos de bem-estar e satisfação geral. Cientistas da Universidade de Quioto se propuseram em obter a resposta. Eles reuniram 51 voluntários e pediram a cada um deles que avaliassem os seus próprios níveis de felicidade. Então eles examinaram os cérebros dos voluntários para tentar ver se existiram algumas diferenças entre os indivíduos melancólicos e os otimistas. Surpreendentemente, as pessoas mais felizes tinham um maior precuneus (uma área do cérebro). Isto quer dizer que você pode trabalhar a felicidade como um músculo. Alguns estudos no passado mostraram que é possível aumentar a massa cinzenta no seu precuneus com meditação regular. Isso explica o porquê é que os meditadores experimentam sentimentos de felicidade e até contentamento geral. O cientista que supervisionou este estudo disse que os médicos já podiam medir as coisas que aumentam a felicidade nas pessoas
The Grandfamily Guidebook: Wisdom and Support for Grandparents Raising Grandchildren
by Andrew Adesman Christine AdamecAre you one of nearly 3 million grandparents across North America raising your grandchildren? You may have done all this parenting stuff before, but times have changed since you raised your own kids, and you likely never thought you’d be raising kids again.What has led to all these family issues and the growing need for grandparents to step up? Now more than ever, substance use and addiction have made many birth parents simply unfit for the job, whether the problem is alcohol, opioids, or other drugs. Family dynamics might also be undermined by parents’ mental health or medical problems, incarceration, or a simple lack of preparedness for family responsibilities. Whatever the reason for your new role, you must now help your grandchildren adjust to their extended family as part of their everyday life, through the best care you are able to provide. While your new role means that you will likely have to change the way you live, the kinship care you provide your grandchildren might make all the difference in the world. In The Grandfamily Guidebook—which leading medical experts have called a “must-have” resource for grandparents raising grandchildren—authors Andrew Adesman, MD, and Christine Adamec offer expert medical advice, helpful insights gleaned from other grandparents, and data mined from the 2016 Adesman Grandfamily Study—the broadest and most diverse research study of its kind to date. You’ll also find hands-on tips you’ll be able to reference whenever you need them, including how to cope with difficult birth parents, school issues and social-life challenges, problem behaviors that stem from a difficult past, and your own self-care. Starting with its foreword by the renowned Dr. William Sears, across this book you will find practical, inspiring help as you navigate the financial impacts, legal considerations, and medical issues that commonly arise when grandparents and grandchildren start becoming a grandfamily.
