Vivere attraverso il cuore
by NirmalaPer secoli, gli insegnamenti spirituali ci hanno indicato il Cuore come fonte di saggezza, verità, pace e amore. Lo chiamiamo il Cuore perché queste realtà più profonde sono sperimentate più intensamente nella zona del cuore fisico. Comunque il Cuore spirituale non è limitato ad una posizione nel vostro corpo. Il Cuore è la totalità della vostra connessione con le qualità essenziali e le dimensioni più grandi della vostra vera natura di Esseri senza limiti. Qualunque esplorazione completa della più ampia verità del vostro Essere deve includere una scoperta delle capacità e qualità di questo tenero, amorevole e saggio aspetto della vostra vera natura. Vivere attraverso il Cuore è suddiviso in tre parti collegate che esplorano il vivere attraverso il Cuore spirituale. La prima parte, Attraverso il Cuore, offre modi semplici per far cadere la vostra consapevolezza nel Cuore e quindi passare ad una prospettiva più aperta e permissiva, e di sperimentare in maniera più completa il mondo e la vostra vera natura di spazio consapevole. L’esplorazione prosegue facendo cadere la consapevolezza nella pancia, e infine nel più ampio Cuore spirituale che comprende la mente, il cuore e la pancia. Questi semplici cambiamenti di prospettiva possono modificare profondamente la vostra esperienza della vita e delle sue sfide. Viene fuori che non importa ciò che sperimentate, quello che importa è da dove lo sperimentate. La seconda parte, La saggezza del Cuore, spiega come il Cuore sia una guida saggia e attenta verso la verità. La verità è qualunque cosa apra il vostro Cuore e metta a tacere la vostra mente. Questa semplice definizione elimina qualunque idea o convinzione confusa sulla via che porta alla fonte diretta della saggezza e della guida, disponibile nel vostro Cuore. La terza parte, L’Amore è per dare, indica il vostro Cuore come vera sorgente dell’amore. L’essenza dell’amore è la spaziosa ed aperta attenzione della no

Vivir para volar
by IshaIsha demuestra en este libro que pese los problemas globales, podemos vivir en plenitud. De Isha, la autora bestseller de Aiko y el diamante perdido y La vibración del amor. Libro recomendado por la revista People en español. Deja de pensar que lo que pasa en el mundo no tiene nada que ver contigo, ¡empieza por creer en ti mismo para creer que puedes cambiar la realidad! La inseguridad de los modelos económicos y los cambios globales tan radicales nos hacen pensar que las estructuras tradicionales se derrumban, haciéndonos sentir vulnerables y desprotegidos. Nos sentimos pequeños e indefensos ante eventos sobre los cuales no tenemos control, ya sean económicos, naturales o sociales. Pero ¿qué pasaría si pudiéramos cambiar nuestra perspectiva? Si cambiamos nuestra percepción del mundo por una más ligera y lúdica. Isha escribió este magnífico libro para compartir cómo se dio cuenta de que las cosas no son tan malas como parecen; que, de hecho, son más maravillosas de lo que jamás imaginamos. De discípulo a creador es una invitación a dejar de preocuparnos y empezar a ocuparnos, una invitación a crear cosas por las que valga la pena vivir; Isha sostiene que el cambio empieza con nosotros mismos y que de nuestro entusiasmo y deseos depende que desarrollemos las mejores herramientas para vivir en plenitud.

Vodou Love Magic: A Practical Guide to Love, Sex, and Relationships
by Kenaz FilanA working guide on how to find love and sexual fulfillment by working with the lwa, the spirits of Haitian Vodou • The first book on wanga (love magic) by an actual Vodou initiate • Provides spells and spirit work for many different problems associated with affairs of the heart • Spells included are detailed and easy to follow Haitian Vodou, like other folk traditions, is an eminently practical craft. Vodou practitioners see their relationship with the lwa--the spirits honored in Haitian Vodou--as mutually beneficial rather than one-sided. In return for sincere offerings, the lwa are happy to provide protection and support in dealing with life’s problems--which more often than not concern love. In Vodou Love Magic, Kenaz Filan details the myriad aspects of love and sex governed by the different lwa and explains what services each can provide in attaining fulfilling relationships--and who will likely offer the best wisdom for your needs. If you are having trouble meeting people, Legba’s Opening the Door spell can resolve this difficulty. If you wish more fire in a relationship, then you should work with the warrior spirit Papa Ogou. Filan presents easy-to-follow instructions for numerous love spells and also reveals how the lwa offer counsel for dealing with ending relationships, toxic behavior patterns like codependency, or romantic triangles. Vodou Love Magic does not provide a magic genie who will fulfill every wish, but it does offer access to a team of spirits who can help transform dreams into realities.

In Vodou Money Magic, Kenaz Filan offers a path to long-lasting and pervasive changes in your financial situation. Filan describes the lwa who govern financial matters and explains what services each can provide in attaining wealth or finding a fulfilling career--and who will likely offer the best wisdom for your needs.

Voice Lessons: How a Couple of Ninja Turtles, Pinky, and an Animaniac Saved My Life
by Rob PaulsenRob Paulsen is one of Hollywood’s busiest, most talented, and most passionate performers. If you don’t know him by name, you will know him by the many characters he has brought to life: Pinky from Pinky and the Brain, Yakko from Animaniacs, the tough but loveable Raphael from the original animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and many more. So you can imagine how terrifying it must have been when Rob was diagnosed with throat cancer, putting his entire livelihood in jeopardy and threatening to rob the world of all his loveable characters that filled our youths and adulthoods with humor and delight. Voice Lessons tells the heartwarming and life-affirming story of Rob’s experience with an aggressive cancer treatment and recovery regimen, which luckily led to a full recovery. Rob quickly returned to doing what he loves most, but with a much deeper appreciation of what he came so close to losing. His new lease on life inspired him to rededicate himself to his fans, particularly the new friends he made along the way: hundreds of sick children and their families. Rob said it best himself: “I can not only continue to make a living, but make a difference, and I can’t wait to use that on the biggest scale that I can.”

Voices in the Band: A Doctor, Her Patients, and How the Outlook on AIDS Care Changed from Doomed to Hopeful
by Susan C. Ball"I am an AIDS doctor. When I began that work in 1992, we knew what caused AIDS, how it spread, and how to avoid getting it, but we didn't know how to treat it or how to prevent our patients' seemingly inevitable progression toward death. The stigma that surrounded AIDS patients from the very beginning of the epidemic in the early 1980s continued to be harsh and isolating. People looked askance at me: What was it like to work in that kind of environment with those kinds of people? My patients are 'those kinds of people.’ They are an array and a combination of brave, depraved, strong, entitled, admirable, self-centered, amazing, strange, funny, daring, gifted, exasperating, wonderful, and sad. And more. At my clinic most of the patients are indigent and few have had an education beyond high school, if that. Many are gay men and many of the patients use or have used drugs. They all have HIV, and in the early days far too many of them died. Every day they brought us the stories of their lives. We listened to them and we took care of them as best we could."—from the Introduction In 1992, Dr. Susan C. Ball began her medical career taking care of patients with HIV in the Center for Special Studies, a designated AIDS care center at a large academic medical center in New York City. Her unsentimental but moving memoir of her experiences bridges two distinct periods in the history of the epidemic: the terrifying early years in which a diagnosis was a death sentence and ignorance too often eclipsed compassion, and the introduction of antiviral therapies that transformed AIDS into a chronic, though potentially manageable, disease. Voices in the Band also provides a new perspective on how we understand disease and its treatment within the context of teamwork among medical personnel, government agencies and other sources of support, and patients. Deftly bringing back both the fear and confusion that surrounded the disease in the early 1990s and the guarded hope that emerged at the end of the decade, Dr. Ball effectively portrays the grief and isolation felt by both the patients and those who cared for them using a sharp eye for detail and sensitivity to each patient’s story. She also recounts the friendships, humor, and camaraderie that she and her colleagues shared working together to provide the best care possible, despite repeated frustrations and setbacks. As Dr. Ball and the team at CSS struggled to care for an underserved population even after game-changing medication was available, it became clear to them that medicine alone could not ensure a transition from illness to health when patients were suffering from terrible circumstances as well as a terrible disease.

Volatile Bodies: Toward A Corporeal Feminism (Theories Of Representation And Difference Ser.)
by Elizabeth GroszVolatile Bodies is based on a risky wager: that all the effects of subjectivity, psychological depth and inferiority can be refigured in terms of bodies and surfaces. It uses, transforms and subverts the work of a number of distinguished male theorists of the body (Freud, Lacan, Merleau-Ponty, Schilder, Nietzsche, Foucault, Lingis and Deleuze) who, while freeing the body from its subordination to the mind, are nonetheless unable to accomodate the specificities of women's bodies. Volatile Bodies explores various dissonances in thinking the relation between mind and body. It investigates issues that resist reduction to these binary terms - psychosis, hypochondria, neurological disturbances, perversions and sexual deviation - and most particularly the enigmatic status of body fluids, and the female body.
