Quick, easy and simple techniques to help you navigate through the
stresses and strains of living in the 21st century. This book
provides a series of `HELPFULNESS TECHNIQUES' for dealing with a
whole series of common issues that people experience. Monica says:
"I wrote this Little Book when I realised most of the excellent
self help books that are available on the market, seem to go into
great detail and explanation on how to control anxiety, stress,
building confidence and self-esteem, helping with a fear or a
phobia, teaching relaxation techniques, the list goes on and on,
but it seemed to me the techniques/exercises in these books were
rather convoluted and lengthy. Just reading them made me stressed!
"Because we are a "NOW" society I wanted to put these
techniques/exercises, which I use in clinic with my clients on a
daily basis, into a simple quick to understand and do format
enabling the reader to get to grips with the techniques/exercises
easily, effortlessly and quickly thereby benefiting them in every
day life and situations."
Change is inevitable and for everything there is a season, a time
for every activity under the heaven. A time to be born and a time
to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. A time to kill and a
time to heal. There is a time and season for everything the writer
says. When nations, societies, communities, friendships, marriages,
clubs, churches, countries, nations, and towns and even businesses
lose their sense of purpose and refuse to change or align
themselves to the changes that are occurring, then confusion,
frustration, discouragement, disillusionment settles in. You must
realize that for growth to take place proportionate change must be
embrace. Sometimes it is not the change that is happening but how
to handle such change will determine your next level. In this book
MANAGING CHANGE IN LIFE, I have taken a biblical character, studied
his life and changes that occurred and how he handled it and have
fashioned it into this book. It contains life principles and keys
to help anyone who is experiencing change or would like to survive
any change whenever they occur. I encourage you to be open minded
and see how it will transform your life, marriage, ministry and
business as a whole.
'We often can't find the right words to express the unique depth
and complicated beauty of what friendship really is because we've
spent so much time heroising romantic love. This book is an attempt
to fill that gap.' Growing up, Elizabeth wanted to make everyone
like her. Lacking friends at school, she grew up to believe that
quantity equalled quality. Having lots of friends meant you were
loved, popular and safe. She was determined to become a Good
Friend. And, in many ways, she did. But in adulthood she slowly
realised that it was often to the detriment of her own boundaries
and mental health. Then, when a global pandemic hit in 2020, she
was one of thousands of people forced to reassess what friendship
really meant to them - with the crisis came a dawning realisation:
her truest friends were not the ones she had been spending most
time with. Why was this? Could she rebalance it? Was there such
thing as...too many friends? And was she the friend she thought she
was? In Friendaholic, Elizabeth unpacks the significance and
evolution of friendship. From exploring her own personal
friendships and the distinct importance of each of them in her
life, to the unique and powerful insights of others across the
globe, Elizabeth asks why there isn't a language that can express
its crucial influence on our world. From ghosting to frenemies, to
social media and communication styles, to the impact of seismic
life events, Elizabeth leaves no stone unturned. Friendaholic is
the book you buy for the people you love but it's also the book you
read to become a better friend to yourself.

Do you eat when you're not hungry? Or when you're angry and upset? Do you eat to control your feelings?
Allen Carr's Easyway is the most successful self-help stop-smoking method of all time. It has helped millions of smokers all over the world to quit, and has since been used to treat other addictions such as drinking and gambling. Allen Carr's Easyway method works by unravelling the brainwashing that leads us to desire the very thing that is harming us, meaning that we are freed from the addiction rather than merely restricting our behaviour.
The Easyway method has now been applied to the problem of emotional eating. With Allen Carr's Easyway method, you can eat as much of your favourite foods as you want, whenever you want, as often as you want, and be the exact weight you want to be, without dieting, special exercise, using willpower or feeling deprived.

The Cottage Life reflects our collective desire to escape the chaos
of modern existence; to live with more purpose, more compassion and
more joy. Â The Cottage Life is an essential guide to slow
and simple living, inspired by the magical world of cottagecore. To
follow the cottagecore aesthetic is to wear secondhand clothes that
tell their own stories; to bake fresh bread and cakes, no matter
how wonky the outcome; to spend time in nature, to observe and draw
the plants, to breathe freshair and to connect with species beyond
our own. It is taking the time to notice the seasons change, or to
turn off your screen mindfully and pick up an old novel instead. It
is lighting a fire on the first cool night of autumn and sipping a
fresh cup of tea by the fireplace, or watching the first spring
leaves unfurl after the long, dark winter. Celebrating the small
joys in life, from the first birdsong of the morning to the taste
of ripe plums on a summer afternoon. And, above all else, it is
learning to slow down, connect with the world around you and be a
more compassionate, conscientious citizen of the earth. Â
Each chapter explores different ways of embracing the cottagecore
lifestyle, such as interacting with nature, eating seasonally and
getting creative. Inherently low-impact and green, cottagecore
embraces reuse and recycling and celebrates an old-fashioned
no-waste ethic. Fortunately for most, possession of a country
cottage is not essential to embody the cottagecore spirit. With
guidance on nurturing your home and small touches for interior
decoration, The Cottage Life brings country living ideals to any
space. Â Cottagecore is much more than a fashion trend or
social media bandwagon. It is a peaceful protest against the darker
elements of modern life—The Cottage Life is a gentle embrace with
the past, encouraging you to truly enjoy the present and nurture a
brighter future. Â Â
Join Julia Bradbury as she leads you through the walk of our
lifetimes. There's a lot of talk about how we all must connect more
with nature. But what does that mean? How do you do it? And what
does it do for you in return? Can something as simple as going for
a walk really improve your life? The simple answer is: YES. Walk
Yourself Happy will explain the elemental link between our own
health - both physical and mental - and the natural world. Julia
knows first-hand the profound impact of nature: it has helped her
survive breast cancer, overcome infertility and continue through
failed IVF treatments; it balances the soul and acts as a
confidante and therapist. Through science-backed information,
practical tips and Julia's own story, Walk Yourself Happy will
explore how nature can soothe anxiety and stress, how a mountain or
a tree can keep you company in times of grief, and the importance
of building nature into your everyday life, so you eat well, sleep
better and move more. Walking, one of the most accessible
activities for most of us, is the fastest and easiest way to embed
yourself in nature. You don't need expertise or equipment; you just
need to put one foot in front of another. You don't need an epic
landscape either, you can walk down the street or in your local
green space. Though, as you will learn from this book, a walk in
the park is rarely just that. We all have shocks and surprises that
stop us in our tracks, make us question who we are and why we are
here. In walking, we have the power to change our pace. And when we
do that, we can find union with nature, camaraderie with friends
and a form of intimacy with self. We can walk ourselves happy and
we can walk ourselves healthy, and we can rekindle the innate
bonds, all-but extinguished by modern living, that we have always
had to our natural environment. We can start today.
