True Age: Cutting Edge Research to Help Turn Back the Clock
by Dr Morgan Elyse LevineThe definitive guide to you and your age, showing you how to live your best life healthy and happy.Research suggests that only 10-30% of our lifespan is determined by our genetics. This means that the vast majority of how we age is directly related to choices we make everyday - how and what we eat, exercise and sleep quality, to name a few. So, while ageing itself may be inevitable, what if there were a way to measure our biological age? And what if there were strategies to slow down, or even reverse, the ageing process?In True Age, Dr Morgan Levine gives us an insight into the cutting-edge developments in the science of aging and longevity and teaches us that through understanding our biological age, we can monitor and even control the process of ageing.True Age explores:- The concept of biological age and the methods now available to determine your own.- Types of foods likely to decrease our biological age - and which will age you prematurely.- What types of exercise are most effective for turning back the clock.- How much sleep we need and what other lifestyle patterns are most likely to help slow and reverse ageing.True Age will equip you with the tools you need to develop personal regimes, diets and routines specifically tailored to keep you looking - and feeling - as young as possible. Using her years of expert research in the field, Dr Levine will put you on the path to living a healthier and more proactive life.(P) 2022 Penguin Audio

True North: Choosing God in the Frustrations of Life
by Gary Heim Lisa HiemEvery day we face some kind of frustration: flat tires, flooded basements, wounding words, a broken body, a troubled marriage--trouble comes in all shapes and sizes and can happen when we least expect it. While everyone struggles, few people have learned to struggle well. But it's not impossible!Frustrations arise when we look to people and things of this world to fill our desires, rather than to the only One who can really satisfy us. True North offers a unique, biblical paradigm that gives understanding and help to turn to God in the frustrations of life. Frustration often causes us to "go south" and react in the flesh. We grumble and grasp. God calls us to "go north" and respond to hardship with wisdom and redemptive love. Combining biblical insight with personal stories, practical help, and compelling examples, authors Gary and Lisa Heim encourage readers to turn from self-centered grumbling and grasping to Christ-centered gratitude and giving. As they read stories of hardships and trials, successes and profits, readers will see how frustrations can actually help them grow in their personal lives, in their marriages, in their parenting, and in their ministries.Believing that learning to live for God through all of life's frustration is an intentional activity for every day, the Heims also provide discussion questions at the end of each chapter to help readers apply biblical truths to situations where frustrations loom. Perfect for use in ministry settings or as a handbook for personal growth, Truth North shows readers how to embark on the life-giving adventure of walking with God.

True North Groups
by Bill George Douglas M. BakerAll too often, we find ourselves forced to confront life's challenges on our own. What we need is an intimate group with whom we can examine our beliefs and share our lives. For the past thirty-five years, Bill George and Doug Baker have found the answer in True North Groups--small groups that gather regularly to explore members' greatest challenges. These groups provide opportunities for the honest conversations essential to develop the self-awareness, compassion, emotional intelligence, and authenticity required to be inspired human beings and inspiring leaders. "At various times," George and Baker write, "a True North Group will function as a nurturer, a grounding rod, a truth teller, and a mirror. At other times the group functions as a challenger or an inspirer. When people are wracked with self-doubts, it helps build their courage and ability to cope." Drawing on recent research in psychology and sociology, George and Baker explain why these groups are so critical to our personal and professional success. They cover every detail from choosing members, establishing norms, and dealing with conflicts to evaluating progress and deciding when it's time to restructure. True North Groups provides a wealth of practical resources, including suggested topics for the first twelve meetings advice on facilitating groups, techniques to evaluate group satisfaction, and much more. For the millions of people who are searching for greater meaning and intimacy in their lives, this book will help them to grow as leaders and as people--and to stay on course to their True North.

The book reminds us of our own innate intelligence and goodness, making possible an enduring trust in ourselves and our lives.
