The Importance of Living
by Lin YutangThe Importance of Living is a wry, witty antidote to the dizzying pace of the modern world. Lin Yutang's prescription is the classic Chinese philosophy of life: Revere inaction as much as action, invoke humor to maintain a healthy attitude, and never forget that there will always be plenty of fools around who are willing-indeed, eager-to be busy, to make themselves useful, and to exercise power while you bask in the simple joy of existence. At a time when we're overwhelmed with wake-up calls, here is a refreshing, playful reminder to savor life's simple pleasures.
La importancia de no hacer nada
by Celeste HeadleeLibérate del trabajo en exceso y vive mejor Hemos perdido la capacidad de otorgarnos tiempo y genuina atención a nosotros mismos, creemos que todo debe ser hecho en función de algo más. Esto nos ha llevado a un callejón sin salida: mientras más competentes somos, nos llenamos de más actividades y mayor estrés. ¿No debería de suceder lo contrario? Por si fuera poco, cada vez nos sentimos más aislados, deprimidos y ansiosos. Sin importar que hayamos alcanzado metas cada vez más ambiciosas de productividad, parece que nunca nada es suficiente. ¿Por qué no podemos simplemente parar y tomarnos un descanso? Hoy que la pandemia ha borrado las fronteras entre casa y oficina, un libro como éste es más que necesario. Celeste Headlee nos lleva a un paseo por la historia, las neurociencias, la psicología, la economía e incluso por la paleontología para poner en duda nuestro culto a la productividad y eficiencia. A la par nos enseña con sencillos y prácticos consejos cómo revertir esta tendencia y dejar atrás la insatisfacción crónica. Es hora de aprender a descansar y a medir el tiempo no en términos de producción, sino de significado y autorrealización. ¿Te atreves?

Impossible People
by Julia WertzIn her keenly observed graphic memoir, Impossible People, celebrated cartoonist Julia Wertz chronicles her haphazard attempts at sobriety and the relentlessly challenging, surprisingly funny, and occasionally absurd cycle of addiction and recovery.Opening at the culmination of a disastrous trip to Puerto Rico, the first page of Impossible People finds Julia standing stupefied in the middle of the jungle beside a rental jeep she's just crashed. From this moment, the story flashes back to the beginning of her five-year journey towards sobriety that includes group therapy sessions, relapses, an ill-fated relationship, terrible dates, and an unceremonious eviction from her New York City apartment. Far from the typical addiction narrative that follows an upward trajectory from rock bottom to rehab to recovery, Impossible People portrays the lesser told but more common story: That the road to recover is not always linear. With unflinching honesty and a healthy dose of humor, Wertz details the arduous, frustrating, and hilarious story of trying and failing and trying again.
The Impossible Prize: A Theology of Addiction
by Donavon Riley"The Impossible Prize" is a lantern in the darkness, casting light on the theological underpinnings of addiction and recovery. In this book, the reader will confront the raw truth, that the struggle against addiction is not merely a battle of willpower or a psychological chess match; it's a spiritual warfare, a clash between the forces of hopelessness and the redemptive grace of a higher power. The Impossible Prize, therefore, invites readers into a profound dialogue with their own vulnerabilities, urging them to relinquish the futile pursuit of self-made solutions and instead turn their gaze toward the divine.

Imposter No More: Overcome Self-doubt and Imposterism to Cultivate a Successful Career
by Jill A. StoddardA personal and professional guide to the latest research on imposterism and psychological flexibility, Imposter No More is the professional's handbook to combatting 'impostor syndrome' and overcoming self-doubt to achieve career success. Dr Jill Stoddard is a recovered imposter. For years, she was convinced that the only reason she was accepted into a competitive grad school programme was because her father knew the programme director. Dr Stoddard isn't alone in this: deep down, the majority of successful people question their professional legitimacy a good amount of the time. Why do we do this, and how can we stop? Although she's in recovery, Dr Stoddard still struggles with feelings of imposterism. She works through them with psychological flexibility, the ability to be present with all thoughts, emotions, physical sensations and urges, fully and without defence, while making conscious, deliberate choices based on what deeply matters to a person. Essentially, we're not attempting to change the substance of the thoughts and feelings that naturally occur to us; instead, we change the way we relate to those thoughts and feelings, so we aren't caught up in constant battle to control them. Throughout Imposter No More, Dr Stoddard lays the groundwork for understanding the imposter phenomenon; she outlines the traps professionals often fall into regarding their imposter feelings, and provides actionable steps for cultivating psychological flexibility to be able to choose bold career moves despite self-doubt and imposterism.
