"THINK WITH LOVE. Open-mindedness - spirituality - is the practice
of thinking with love. First, we refer to our heart's mind for the
best way to proceed. Then we recruit the mental mind to support the
heart. This is what it means to have our priorities straight." This
is one of seventy-two cards in How to Be Loving: The Deck: For
Resilience, Kindness, and All Kinds of Idealism - from bestselling
author Danielle LaPorte. A companion deck for her book and journal
of the same title, this collection is substance with a side of
playful. Some cards are short paragraphs of deep teachings. Others
are poignant one-liners that people will be posting everywhere:
"Embrace your contradictions." "Use your mind for holy purposes."
"Ask your heart what it wants to tell your mind." There are
beautiful questions that can be used as conversation starters or
journaling prompts, like, "If you were to look at yourself with a
loving gaze, what would shift?" Danielle has also sprinkled in
textual art cards that are ready for framing or tucking into love
notes. These nourishing words and sweet inquiries are antidotes to
the fear-based, limiting scripts we've had on repeat for years. As
daily writing motivation, oracle cards, date-night cue cards, or
on-the-spot inspiration, How to Be Loving: The Deck is for deep
thinkers and for people just stepping on the path to healing -
themselves and our world.

Learn how to tackle the hardest parts of taking a test-stress,
anxiety, self-doubt-with Beyond the Content. In this quick read,
you'll learn how mindfulness can help you conquer the voices in
your head, study better, and approach the test with confidence.
Most test prep books, textbooks, and classes miss the mark by only
focusing on strategy and content. This essential guide tackles the
other half of test prep: mindfulness and your mental performance.
Mindfulness is widely embraced in the business and athletic
communities as a valuable technique to optimize performance. Author
Logan Thompson, an expert in both test prep and mindfulness, says
that it's about time the test prep community embraces it as well.
In the book, Thompson explains, "The other half of test prep is the
world of fleeting thoughts and emotions, always flickering, always
murmuring inside your head, usually going unnoticed and unremarked
upon. They shape our perceptions and perspectives. And, they
dictate our performance on tests. The other half of test prep is
happening all the time, whether we like it or not. Your mental and
emotional state, your surfacing memories, your underlying beliefs
are always there. The good news is that, by acknowledging the other
half of test prep, exploring it, and working with it, you can gain
access to your full potential."

Two leading researchers into ancient wisdom demonstrate that the
earth's dimensions were accurately known prior to 3000 BC. These
astonishing findings, available for the first time, include a
system of surveying and measure based on simple numerical and
geometrical rules documents that remnants of this science still
existed in medieval times when it became lost. It appears that the
system was applied world-wide.
Build an integrated, deeply personal practice to cultivate transformation, self-trust, and awakening with insights and techniques from beloved teacher Sarah Powers.
More than just physical poses on a mat, yoga can be a profound path of self-realization. Lit from Within encourages readers to pursue yoga in its fullness, examining conscious and unconscious habits, connecting to our inner landscapes, and freeing us to relate to ourselves and our world with a sacred outlook.
Sarah Powers helps readers relate to five levels of our human experience--physical, energetic, emotional, mental, and interpersonal. Each section offers an opportunity for self-inquiry and practices to fuel our growth, including yin yoga, meditation, emotional intelligence exercises like creating connection with an inner critic, and interpersonal dynamics drawn from the Internal Family Systems approach. Learning to recognize, reflect on, and at times re-direct these different levels of experience adds a vital dimension to the practice. The book draws on Sarah's many years of practice and teaching, influenced by the rich tapestries of yin yoga, Buddhism, Taoism, and psychology.
In these challenging times, Lit from Within offers a path to health, wholeness, and connection--from the inside out.

This book covers the three pathways of awareness that are built
into our bodies, and that can help us to improve the beneficial
aspects of our breathing. It is suitable for all body workers, yoga
teachers, other movement facilitators and anyone who works with
chronic pain. The scientific literature on attachment, Polyvagal
Theory, interoception, autonomic feedback loops and heart rate
variability, point to the crucial importance of the breath. These
pathways can be characterized as 1) the Breathing Bodymap of the
Fingers; 2) the Breathing Interrelationships of our Functional
Diaphragms; and 3) Skin Breathing, or bringing blood to our
capillary beds in precise locations throughout the body.The
benefits of learning these approaches are as follows:* Accessing
these pathways can greatly increase our options as we work to
improve the functioning of our bodies.* These approaches also
deepen our understanding of the inherent wisdom of ancient body
awareness systems such as mudras, yoga and chi kung, and how these
systems can have such profound affects on our physiologies.* They
offer immediate solutions to inefficient and dysfunctional movement
patterns and can be immediately brought into use by professional
musicians and athletes as they perform.* By breathing deliberately,
we can;* interrupt the upsurge of our sympathetic nervous systems;
* interact with our parasympathetic nervous systems to take
ourselves out of a state of "runaway mind" to relax or put
ourselves to sleep; * re-route or repattern pre-existing breathing
patterns and fixations in the respiratory diaphragm itself that
have not served us well; * bring extra blood to areas of chronic
discomfort, helping us to endure adverse circumstances.This book
includes links to voice recordings of three meditations on the
three pathways, as well as a video on breathing and the autonomic
nervous system.
One value of yoga therapy is its ability to bring us to our
senses-figuratively and literally. Inner body sensing and the
knowing it evokes is a large part of how we become aware of what we
need to attend to and work on in our growth as individuals. In
Spanda (R) Yoga Movement Therapy-the yoga therapy method from which
this work arises-embodiment practices are as vital to the process
of self-understanding as they are to understanding anatomy,
anatomical concepts, and physiological processes. This book shares
a host of somatic practices that can readily be used in teaching,
therapy, yoga practice and other avenues of personal exploration at
the physical, energetic, mental, emotional, and spiritual levels. A
wealth of illustrated step-by-step directions are given for somatic
practice at each koshic level. The practices shared have been in
use in clinical yoga therapy, in workshops and in classes for the
past thirty years. They've resulted in greater knowledge, insight,
and awareness of the body and the wisdom it can reveal.
Somatic psychology and bodymind therapy (the simultaneous study of
the mind and body) are challenging contemporary understandings of
the psyche, of what it means to be human and how to heal human
suffering. This book discusses these areas of study.
The reader's regular perusal, and intelligent contemplation of the
spiritual 'Plums' that are strewn about in these books, promises to
help the spiritualising process in all serious students of esoteric
lore, as well as all seekers of God, to become ever more firmly
rooted (mind and heart) in the Divine.
