Just Add Buddha!: Quick Buddhist Solutions for Hellish Bosses, Traffic Jams, Stubborn Spouses, and Other Annoyances of Everyday Life
by Franz Metcalf“A diverse and edifying collection of practices to use in annoying and difficult circumstances” from the author of What Would Buddha Do? (Spirituality & Practice).Written for spiritual seekers who deal with unenlightened coworkers and inconsiderate bank tellers more often than Zen masters and Tibetan monks, this book demonstrates the practical side of Buddhism. Author Franz Metcalf shows how to weave simple vows, quick rethinks, instant relaxations, fast visualizations, and many other stripped-down Buddhist practices into every area of life. Individually, Metcalf’s techniques work as quick fixes for specific dilemmas, but woven together, they gradually strengthen one’s spiritual base when one day a habitual way of being has been quietly transformed. While not written to impress pure Buddhists, this book takes Buddhism seriously. Approachable sections on Buddhism’s rich tradition and a sprinkling of quotes from ancient scripture and contemporary teachers connect the book’s practices to the deeper wisdom underlying them. Always, Just Add Buddha! remains squarely focused on daily life, drawing out the most practical aspects of Buddhism.
Just Add Water: My Swimming Life
by Katie LedeckyNew York Times Bestseller A candid and inspiring memoir from Olympic gold medalist, world champion, and one of the best swimmers ever to compete: Katie Ledecky. Katie Ledecky has won more individual Olympic races than any female swimmer in history. She is a three-time Olympian, a seven-time gold medalist, a twenty-one-time world champion, eight-time NCAA Champion, and a world record-holder in individual swimming events. Time and again, the question is posed to her family, her coaches, and to her—what makes her a champion? Now, for the first time, she shares what it takes to compete at an elite level. Again and again, Ledecky has broken records: those of others and, increasingly, her own. She is both consistent and innovative—consistent at setting goals and shattering them, and innovative in the way she approaches her training. A true competitor, she sets her goals by choosing the ones that feel the scariest. But, crucially, she never sacrifices the joy of competition, even in the face of adversity. Her positive mental outlook and a great support system provides the springboard to her success. Just Add Water charts Ledecky&’s life in swimming. It details her start in Bethesda, Maryland, where she played sharks and minnows and first discovered the joy of the pool; her early foray into the Olympics at the tender age of fifteen where, as the youngest member of the American team, she stunned everyone by winning her first gold medal; her time balancing competition and her education at Stanford University; how she developed a champion&’s mindset that has allowed her to persevere through so many meets, even under intense pressure; and how she has maintained her dominance in a sport where success depends on milliseconds. You learn how every element of her life—from the support of her family to the tutelage of her coaches, from her childhood spent in summer league swimming to the bright lights of Olympic pools in London, Rio, and Tokyo—set her up to become the champion she is. In the end, Katie&’s story is about testing yourself against the difficult, and seeing who you become on the other side.

Just Ask Spirit: Free Your Emotions to Energize Intuition and Discover Purpose
by Sherianna BoyleWhen life feels frightening or uncertain . . . Just Ask Spirit! Readers interested in wellness, mindfulness, and developing their own intuitive gifts will discover the profound relationship between mental health and spirituality, and how emotions and Spirit, working together, offer infinite resources for connecting them to higher wisdom, healing, clarity, love, direction, purpose, and more. Emotions and Spirit are inextricably linked. When we block, control, or constrict our emotions, we also block the innate wisdom of Spirit to help and heal us. Instead, imagine a mindful practice, one that could allow us to receive healing, guidance, wisdom, clarity, and reassurance anytime we need it. Imagine that this guidance came from pure source energy, untarnished by restrictive, limited beliefs, judgment, thoughts, or attitudes. Sherianna Boyle, bestselling author of Emotional Detox and host of the popular podcast Just Ask Spirit, knows this is what is possible when we unify emotions and spirit. Just Ask Spirit does what few books can—it humanizes the mystical. It offers gifts that are accessible to all of us—like receiving spiritual direction and communicating with our guides and angels—while showing how this process interconnects with psychology and the science of our emotions, giving readers tools and techniques to apply to all aspects of their lives. Using practices backed by both science and ancient wisdom, Just Ask Spirit, provides an inner roadmap for building resiliency and overcoming obstacles, for developing intuition, spirit connection, and understanding what it means to ask.

Colas’ most evident worry is that she will instantaneously contract a disease from the most minuscule sample of blood. When strangers, including the babysitter of her children, enter her home she becomes obsessed with every possible chance that they may infect her home. Therefore, Colas’ developed a system of checkpoints so she could determine whether or not the bathroom was used, a drawer opened, or anything touched. As the book proceeds the narrator begins to deal with her illness and she struggles to get better. Her marriage fell apart as a result of her disorder and she and her husband divorced. Eventually, after Colas’ married life disintegrated, she decided to take action and get help for her disorder. The narrative covers the stress that her condition placed on her family.
