Alonement: How to be alone and absolutely own it

by Francesca Specter

How to be alone and absolutely own it, by founder of the Alonement blog and podcast, Francesca Specter._______________'A hugely generous and thoughtful book' - ALAIN DE BOTTON'A kind, wise celebration of solo living' - DAISY BUCHANAN'Thoughtful and thought provoking, it made me genuinely excited about spending time in my own company' - FELICITY CLOAKE_______________Being alone has a serious branding issue. We've only ever had negative language to talk about flying solo - but what about when time spent alone is restorative and joyful? What if it's something you crave? What if it's even just an hour you've carved out for yourself in the middle of a hectic week? Enter: Alonement, Francesca Specter's empowering new word to express valuing your own company and dedicating quality time to yourself, whoever you are and whatever your relationship status. Between shared homes, social plans and smartphone addictions, most of us don't know how to be alone - yet our life-long relationship with ourselves is the most important one we'll ever have. A reformed 'extreme extrovert' who struggled to spend even an hour on her own, Francesca made the resolution in January 2019 to improve her solitude skills. A year later, facing months of lockdown as a household-of-one, she valued those skills more than ever - and began sharing her wisdom with others on how to cherish time alone.Packed with practical tips, insights from key experts and lessons from guests of the Alonement podcast - including Alain de Botton, Florence Given, Konnie Huq, Vick Hope and Camilla Thurlow - Francesca reveals how we can all thrive alone, whatever our circumstances, and harness the untapped power of some meaningful time with me, myself and I.

Along the Way

by Hope Edelman Martin Sheen Emilio Estevez

In this remarkable dual memoir, film legend Martin Sheen and accomplished actor/filmmaker Emilio Estevez recount their lives as father and son. In alternating chapters--and in voices that are as eloquent as they are different--they tell stories spanning more than fifty years of family history, and reflect on their journeys into two different kinds of faith. At twenty-one, still a struggling actor living hand to mouth, Martin and his wife, Janet, welcomed their firstborn, Emilio, an experience of profound joy for the young couple, who soon had three more children: Ramon, Charlie, and Renée. As Martin's career moved from stage to screen, the family moved from New York City to Malibu, while traveling together to film locations around the world, from Mexico for Catch-22 to Colorado for Badlands to the Philippines for the legendary Apocalypse Now shoot. As the firstborn, Emilio had a special relationship with Martin: They often mirrored each other's passions and sometimes clashed in their differences. After Martin and Emilio traveled together to India for the movie Gandhi, each felt the beginnings of a spiritual awakening that soon led Martin back to his Catholic roots, and eventually led both men to Spain, from where Martin's father had emigrated to the United States. Along the famed Camino de Santiago pilgrimage path, Emilio directed Martin in their acclaimed film, The Way, bringing three generations of Estevez men together in the region of Spain where Martin's father was born, and near where Emilio's own son had moved to marry and live. With vivid, behind-the-scenes anecdotes of this multitalented father's and son's work with other notable actors and directors, Along the Way is a striking, stirring, funny story--a family saga that readers will recognize as universal in its rebellions and regrets, aspirations and triumphs. Strikingly candid, searchingly honest, this heartfelt portrait reveals two strong-minded, admirable men of many important roles, perhaps the greatest of which are as fathers and sons.

Already Enough: A Path to Self-Acceptance

by Lisa Olivera

Identify, understand, and reframe your life story with this essential guide for self-acceptance from Lisa Olivera, a therapist, writer, and creator of a wildly popular Instagram account.When Lisa Olivera was just a few hours old, her birth mother abandoned her behind a rock near Muir Woods in Northern California. She was found and later adopted. Growing up, Lisa knew she was adopted. She later learned she was abandoned. Like with many adopted children, this led Lisa to wonder: why did her mother leave her behind? Without answers, Lisa came up with her own: something must be wrong with her. Lisa came to believe she was not enough. This story wasn&’t true, but it made sense of a confusing experience. It allowed her to move forward. It felt like the only way. Until, with the help of a therapist, Lisa began to tell herself a better story. If you have ever felt like you didn&’t belong, or like you weren&’t worthy, or like you weren&’t enough, just as you are...it might be time for you to rewrite your story, too. Now a therapist herself, Lisa shows you how. In Already Enough, Lisa explores how our stories affect us—often much more than we realize. She guides us through reframing our stories so we can remember that we are already enough, just as we are. And she invites us to join her on a transformative journey to healing. Tender, hopeful, and inspiring, Already Enough is a powerful reminder that we are the authors of our own stories. The sooner we decide to write a better story, the sooner we can live a more whole, more meaningful, more nourishing life.

Already Enough: A Path to Self-Acceptance

by Lisa Olivera

'Beautiful, meditative, touching and hopeful' Arianna HuffingtonIf you have ever told yourself that you don't belong, or that you aren't worthy or enough, exactly as you are, it might be time to rewrite your story...In Already Enough, therapist Lisa Olivera explores how our 'stories' affect us - the stories we tell ourselves about the person we are because of the things that have happened to us or the way people have treated us - often a lot more than we realise. Drawing on her own extraordinary experience as an adopted child, abandoned by her mother in California woods just hours after birth, she combines memoir with therapeutic exercises to help us reframe the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves.For young people finding their way in life, professionals who doubt their own abilities and parents who struggle to love themselves as much as their families, Already Enough is a manual to healing and self-love. Urging us to believe that we are already enough, just as we are, this is a tender, hopeful and inspiring reminder that we are the authorsof our own stories, deserving of a more nourishing life.

Already Whole: Discovering the Sacred Within

by Helena Hjalmarsson

Many of us have made our lives so noisy, overwhelming, sensory craving and data driven that we have somehow missed the most fundamental part about ourselves and our lives. Learning how to work with every process, every situation, every relationship intuitively; learning to love what is, to let go, to have faith and find stillness; to foster one&’s intuition and become creative in our own lives is something we can all achieve. To illustrate these concepts, Hajlmarsson calls on her decades of experience and work as a psychotherapist. But most significantly, her life as an autism parent, accounted for in her previous books, Finding Lina 2013 and Beyond Autism 2019, which has taught her where to find that elusive freedom and harmony: inside herself. Hjalmarsson believes that the solution to life's chaos, this freedom and harmony—this love—is accessible to all. She writes, "We don&’t earn freedom. We either realize who we are and how we can live free, connected, joyful and expansive lives or we don&’t. We can realize it some of the time and live a little bit connected and a little bit trapped. Or we can learn to realize it most of the time and spend most of our lives fully awake."

by Christopher Schacht

Christopher Schacht comparte sus increíbles experiencias, revelando lo que ha aprendido a lo largo del camino sobre la vida, el amor y Dios, y describe encuentros y percepciones conmovedoras y extrañas que no se encuentran en ninguna guía turística.Christopher Schacht tenía solo diecinueve años y acababa de terminar su formación educativa cuando puso un sueño en marcha.

Alta negra: Fuerza, perseverancia y liderazgo

by Evelina Cabrera

La historia de Evelina Cabrera, la entrenadora y ex jugadora de fútbol que pasó de vivir en la calle y cuidar coches a ser la presidenta de la Asociación Femenina de Fútbol Argentino y disertar en la ONU. Si cuento mi vida es porque tiene algunos hechos extraordinarios que la convirtieron en una existencia más visible que otras. Pero también porque tiene gran parte en común con la de muchas niñas y jóvenes que pueden sentirse identificadas y acompañadas y eso, creo, le da más valor a esta historia. La historia de Evelina Cabrera es una entre millones. Tiene, como ella dice, 70 años comprimidos en sus 33. Pasó de una infancia vulnerable a ser una referente del fútbol femenino, crear la Asociación Femenina de Fútbol Argentino y dar una conferencia en la ONU sobre su trabajo social con las mujeres, a quienes brinda herramientas para empoderarse y cambiar su vida. Hoy es un ejemplo de superación, de búsqueda y de una activa militancia contra toda forma de discriminación. Evelina forma parte de una época en que las mujeres marcan un rumbo diferente, alejado de roles estereotipados, liberadas de mandatos restrictivos, y en este mundo nuevo alza su voz. Una historia que es, y puede ser también, la historia de todas nosotras.

Altamente sensible: El poder de sentir, cuidar y conectar

by Jenn Granneman Andre Sólo

Tu sensibilidad es una fortaleza, aprende a usarla. Un libro eminentemente práctico e inspirador que cambiará, de una vez por todas, nuestra percepción de las personas altamente sensibles y les dará alas. Todo el mundo tiene un lado sensible, pero una de cada tres personas posee una genética que la hace, física y emocionalmente, más sensible que los demás. Piensan antes de hablar y de actuar, perciben detalles sutiles y hacen conexiones que otros pasan por alto; suelen ser inteligentes, de gran corazón y muy creativas; están programadas para profundizar, pero la sociedad las induce a ocultar su sensibilidad. Son las personas altamente sensibles (PAS), y este es el libro que las defiende y empodera. La manera de prosperar como persona altamente sensible no es ocultar la propia sensibilidad, sino abrazarla. Jenn Granneman y Andre Sólo, creadores de la comunidad para PAS más grande del mundo, enseñan cómo desbloquear el potencial de esta fortaleza infravalorada y cómo aprovecharla en las áreas más importantes de la vida: las amistades, las relaciones, el trabajo, el liderazgo, y la crianza de los hijos. Entrelazando consejos prácticos, anécdotas y las últimas investigaciones científicas, los autores muestran la gran ventaja de lo que llaman el «efecto impulsor de la sensibilidad» y brindan las herramientas y los conocimientos necesarios para triunfar como PAS en un mundo ruidoso, rápido y en exceso agitado. La crítica ha dicho:«Este magnífico libro replantea cómo percibir la alta sensibilidad -nuestra o de otra persona- y arroja luz sobre el gran poder inherente a estar tan en sintonía con el mundo».Susan Cain, autora de El poder de los introvertidos, n.º 1 de The New York Times«Granneman y Sólo ofrecen una hábil combinación de informes científicos y consejos, una oportunidad única e imprescindible para aprovechar el enorme poder del individuo sensible en un mundo cada vez más ruidoso».Cal Newport, autor de Digital Minimalism y Deep «Una lectura absolutamente obligada para aquellos que experimentan este mundo con profundos sentimiento, conciencia y empatía».Ellen Hendriksen, autora de How to Be Yourself «El libro de Grannemany Sólo amplía nuestros horizontes. Es una victoria para la humanidad».Rich Karlgaard, autor de Late Bloomers

Altared: A Tale of Renovating a Medieval Church in Tuscany 

by Kyle Tackwell Ball

When Kyle Tackwell Ball’s search for a quaint country home near Florence, Italy, in move-in condition somehow led to the purchase of an abandoned church in a small borgo near Greve-in-Chianti called Le Convertoie, she ended up with much more than a project to overcome her newly contracted “empty nest syndrome.”Ball soon found herself starring in a “Stones and Bones Classic”; the ruin she’d purchased would require years of renovation and an endless amount of money before it would become habitable. But her journey had unexpected rewards, too: she reconnected with some wonderful friends, made new ones, learned the language of her newly adopted home country, and became experienced in the Italian knack of getting around the system. Most importantly, she learned to appreciate Italian culture, food and wine, and how rewarding it is to give new life to a beautiful old building. Ball’s renovation was featured in the March 2010 “Before & After” issue of Architectural Digest, beautifully documented by Kim Sargent of Sargent Architectural Photography.

Altered State?

by Peter H. Reuter Robert J. Maccoun Beau Kilmer Rosalie Liccardo Pacula Jonathan P. Caulkins

Legalizing marijuana in California would lead to a major decline in the pretax price, but the price for consumers will depend heavily on taxes, the regulatory regime structure, and how taxes and regulations are enforced. The lower price and nonprice effects will increase consumption, but it is unclear by how much. There is much uncertainty about the effect on public budgets; even minor changes in assumptions lead to major differences in outcomes.

Alternativa al uso del estrógeno: Terapia hormonal con progesterona natural

by Judi Gerstung Raquel Martin

CADA VEZ MÁS MUJERES DESEAN ENCONTRAR una alternativa natural para la terapia de hormonas sintéticas y sus peligrosos efectos secundarios. Alternativa al uso del estrógeno presenta una de las sustancias naturales más útiles: la progesterona natural. Esta forma de progesterona natural, que se deriva de un ñame silvestre, se puede conseguir en tabletas o en crema. Es idéntica a la progesterona producida por el organismo y por lo tanto, de facil absorción. Muchos de los malestares que sufre la mujer, como los calambres menstruales, los abortos espontáneos, y los síntomas, casi siempre negativos, de la menopausia, pueden ser resultado de una deficiencia de progesterona natural, unido al predominio del estrógeno. A este problema contribuyen el estrés, una dieta deficiente y la cada vez peor calidad de los productos frescos. La medicina moderna suele tratar el desequilibrio hormonal prescribiendo hormonas sintéticas con la intención de volver a conseguir la porporción correcta entre el estrógeno y la progesterona. Pero el organismo de la mujer no asimila eficazmente estas hormonas artificiales, con lo que se provocan una serie de efectos secundarios que pueden ser peores que los malestares que se pretenden evitar. El suplemento de progesterona natural es útil para tratar y prevenir muchas enfermedades: SPM, irregularidad menstrual, infertilidad, depresión, endometriosis, fibromas uterinos y osteoporosis. También es muy eficaz para aliviar bochornos, insomnio, sudor nocturno, sequedad vaginal y otros síntomas de la menopausia. La autora, Raquel Martin, analiza una serie de estudios, muchas veces confusos, sobre la terapia de reemplazo hormonal y guía a las lectoras hacia alternativa naturales. Raquel Martin da consejos acerca de cómo las lectoras pueden colaborar con un médico compresivo a fin de lograr el enfoque adecuado para ellas en particlar.

Alternativas para el Prozac: Remedios naturales para la depresión

by Ran Knishinsky

A principios de la década de 1990, las ventas de Prozac superaban las de todos los demás medicamentos contra la depresión tanto en Estados Unidos como en el mercado mundial.

Todos estos remedios son invaluables para el mejoramiento de la salud mental. Alternativas para el Prozac habla de manera sencilla y directa sobre la depresión.

Altruism: The Power of Compassion to Change Yourself and the World

by Matthieu Ricard

The author of the international bestseller Happiness makes a passionate case for altruism--and why we need it now more than ever.In Happiness, Matthieu Ricard demonstrated that true happiness is not tied to fleeting moments or sensations, but is an enduring state of soul rooted in mindfulness and compassion for others. Now he turns his lens from the personal to the global, with a rousing argument that altruism--genuine concern for the well-being of others--could be the saving grace of the 21st century. It is, he believes, the vital thread that can answer the main challenges of our time: the economy in the short term, life satisfaction in the mid-term, and environment in the long term. Ricard's message has been taken up by major economists and thinkers, including Dennis Snower, Amartya Sen, Joseph Stiglitz, and George Soros.Matthieu Ricard makes a robust and passionate case for cultivating altruistic love and compassion as the best means for simultaneously benefitting ourselves and our society. It's a fresh outlook on an ardent struggle--and one that just might make the world a better place.
