O mundo como o conhecíamos parou durante a noite, com o medo de um vírus mortal se espalhar rapidamente, causando uma pandemia. As pessoas foram forçadas a ficar confinadas em casas por um número imprevisto de semanas. Empresas foram fechadas. As consequências econômicas ainda não foram sentidas, mas as perspectivas eram mais mortais do que as do vírus. Todos começaram a aprender e a se preocupar com a higiene física. Essa reclusão forçada fez com que muitos repensassem suas vidas e o que consideravam normal, e tudo o que consideravam natural. Para muitos, o significado de suas vidas ficou em questão, e o foco começou a mudar para como poderíamos nos preparar para um evento como este ou pior. Tornou-se evidente para muitos que a fraqueza crucial tinha sido uma desnutrição espiritual e negligência; e a higiene espiritual? Este trabalho se concentra em como nos reviver espiritualmente para realizar e cumprir o verdadeiro significado de nossas vidas.

Regifted: An Adoptee's Memoir of True Belonging

A raw, often wry, memoir of mothers, mysteries, and miracles. Surrendered at birth in a closed adoption, Candi Byrne’s biology and ethnicity is a secret. The impending arrival of her first grandchild ignites an urgency to identify potential genetic time bombs and confirm her ancestry. Due to arcane privacy laws, Candi is repeatedly denied access to the one person who could provide that information—her biological mother. After years of failed attempts, she resigns herself to never learning the truth about her roots; that is, until her ninety-year-old Aunt Delores has a vision and insists Candi resume efforts to find her birth family. Candi is gobsmacked when an internet search she’s performed thousands of times before suddenly reveals her birth mother’s identity. Within hours, she ends up on the doorstep of her birth mother—a place she’s sworn never to visit. After a series of guilt-driven interactions with “Those People,” as she refers to her maternal birth family, Candi terminates contact. Although the reunion proves disastrous, it opens her eyes to truths about her relationship with her adoptive mother, Delphine. Though their relationship was difficult and contentious during Delphine’s life, a series of miraculous experiences after her death guides Candi home to herself—where, she learns, she has belonged all along.

La Regla del 1%: Cómo Enamorarte del Proceso y Lograr Tus Más Grandes Sueños

Nuestro sistema actual no está funcionado. Específicamente nuestro sistema para poner metas y mantenerse lo suficientemente motivado, no solo para cumplir las metas sino para constantemente estar subiendo de nivel, logros y satisfacción. Durante los últimos diez años me he dedicado a responder algunas de las preguntas básicas y me he adentrado en un viaje para explorar estas respuestas. Estas preguntas son simples y al mismo tiempo increíblemente complejas. Estas incluyen: ¿Por qué algunas personas alcanzan el éxito en todo lo que hacen mientras que otros no pueden dejar de sabotearse a sí mismos? ¿Qué es lo que separa a aquellos que se emocionan y se inspiran por una temporada, tres meses, un mes, una semana, de los que están inspirados todo el tiempo? ¿Cuáles son los principios base, formas de pensar, hábitos y rituales de los que ejecutan acciones descaradamente, y los de aquellos que se quedan en el borde meditando? Esto me llevó a una búsqueda personal de auto descubrimiento y crecimiento mientras viajaba por el mundo para aprender de los mejores. Invertí cientos de miles de dólares en seminarios, programas, cursos y mentores. Esto me llevó a lanzar mi propia plataforma de contenido, podcast, un negocio de consultoría y coaching, así como también a escribir mi primer libro y dirigir mis propias experiencias. Ahora he puesto todo en el material de La Regla del 1%!

Las consecuencias económicas aún no se sintieron del todo, pero sus perspectivas eran más mortales que las del virus. Todos comenzaron a aprender y a prestar atención a la higiene física. Esta reclusión forzada hizo que muchos volvieran a pensar sus vidas y lo que consideraban normal, y todo lo que habían dado por sentado. Para muchos, el significado de sus vidas fue cuestionado, y el enfoque comenzó a cambiar a cómo podríamos prepararnos para un evento como este o peor. Para muchos se hizo evidente que la debilidad crucial había sido la desnutrición espiritual y la negligencia; ¿Qué pasa con la higiene espiritual? Este trabajo se enfoca en cómo revivirnos espiritualmente para darnos cuenta y cumplir el verdadero significado de nuestras vidas.

Reiki And The Seven Chakras: Your Essential Guide to the First Level

Reiki is a unique system of healing that allows you to harness and transmit energy through your hands, restoring balance and harmony within the body and bringing relief to a wide range of physical and emotional problems. This book, by renowned Reiki teacher Richard Ellis, illustrates all the hand positions used for the first level of Reiki, but it goes much further and shows them in their relation to the seven chakras. Chakras are the main energy points of the body and provide the anatomy of energy healing. These are different for everyone, and so to practise Reiki effectively you need to understand a person's chakras, which will in turn explain the type of person they are and the health problems they are vulnerable to. For example, one person may have an excessive first chakra, making them prone to obesity or digestive problems, and to pessimism, while another may be deficient, making them vulnerable to anorexia and restlessness. You would therefore approach these two people differently. Reiki and the Seven Chakras captures the feeling of wonder that surrounds Reiki, but it is also an immensely practical guide. So many of the current books on Reiki are very dry, following a formula of detailing the history of Reiki healing and then showing you how to do it. This one breaks the mould and is written from a very personal point of view, which makes it incredibly interesting to read and also very accessible – essential if you are to understand the true nature and potential of Reiki.

Reimagining Your Love Story: Biblical and Psychological Practices for Healthy Relationships

We’ve all grown up watching the fairy tales that promise happily ever after with our one true love. Whether we like it or not, whether we think we believe it or not, chances are we’ve internalized that story of love. And despite the technology to find connection with more people than ever before, somehow we are also lonelier than ever before—even when we’re in relationships.Although we were created for loving, intimate relationships, we’ve lost our understanding of how to find and maintain them. Andrea Gurney wants readers to discover more authentic connections that aren’t made of wishes, so she equips us with practices from psychology, biblical truths, and lessons from relationship science. She also helps us examine our developmental history, including how cultural and familial messages take root in our psyches. Together, these tools craft a solid foundation on which lasting love can be built, rather than a pumpkin carriage that disappears when the clock strikes midnight. If you are disillusioned by unattainable societal standards, in need of healing from damaged relationships, or simply want to improve at relating well with others, you’re ready for Reimagining Your Love Story.

Rein In Your Brain

Those in recovery learn to "rein in their brain," ending compulsive behaviors while fostering a more thoughtful lifestyle that ensures long term emotional sobriety.Addiction--whether to mood-altering substances, gambling, sex, or food-- stems in part from an over-reliance on the reward system of a primitive part of the brain that can push us to make poor choices based on an expectation of immediate gratification. Those of us in recovery often struggle with the compulsive thoughts and behaviors that are still programmed in our addictive brains well after the drinking and drugging has stopped. These often play out thoughtlessly in our interactions with others, damaging our relationships and growth as balanced human beings.Rein in Your Brain, by addiction expert Cynthia Moreno Tuohy, offers ten tools for breaking the cycle of impulsivity. These time-tested self-interventions include standing still in the moment, giving up control, not assuming the other person's intent, tolerating differences, accepting emotions without giving them free reign, and differentiating between immediate fear-driven reactions and measured thoughts. By incorporating these tools in your daily interactions, your relationships can move from those of conflict to mutual respect and understanding.
