1. Transform how you react to stress
An adventure story, love story, travelogue, naturalist memoir, and
spiritual guide, Craig Foster's Amphibious Soul is a scientist and
adventurer’s perspective on “rewilding”―developing a deep connection to
our animal selves that can reinvigorate our lives. Told in Craig’s warm
and passionate voice, this extraordinary book will change not only the
way we interact with the natural world, but the way we fundamentally
see ourselves.
Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and stuck in a
cycle of low energy, anxiety, and fear? There is a powerful, often
overlooked solution to these challenges: the hidden power within your
heart.
How can we reclaim the soul-deepening wildness that grounds us and energizes us when so much of the modern world seems designed to tame us? In this thrilling memoir of a life spent exploring the most incredible places on Earth—from the Great African Seaforest to the crocodile lairs of the Okavango Delta—Craig Foster reveals how we can attend to the earthly beauty around us and deepen our love for all living things, whether we make our homes in the country, the city, or anywhere in between. Foster explores his struggles to remain present to life when a disconnection from nature and the demands of his professional life begin to deaden his senses. And his own reliance on nature’s rejuvenating spiritual power is put to the test when catastrophe strikes close to home. Foster’s lyrical, riveting Amphibious Soul draws on his decades of daily ocean dives, wisdom from Indigenous teachers, and leading-edge science.
Are you sleepwalking through life, overwhelmed by an unending stream of
desires, duties and demands?
Martial arts legend and international movie star Jet Li distils 10 powerful insights from his iconic career, his personal life and philosophies, and his 30-year Buddhist practice. Jet Li’s story defies legend. Born into extreme hardship, he fought his way to become the youngest national martial arts champion in Chinese history at 12 years old, dominating opponents twice his size. He then became one of the first internationally renowned movie stars from China with films including Once Upon a Time in China, Hero and Fearless. These films redefined martial arts for the modern world, making him a household name. But behind the glory lay a deeper battle: a search for meaning beyond fame, fortune and physical skill. After a near-death encounter in the 2004 tsunami, Li turned inwards, deepening his study of Tibetan Buddhism and dedicating his life to philanthropy, though he was at the height of his Hollywood career. For the very first time, Li shares the ten insights that have guided his life, in which anyone can find wisdom, guidance, and power, including:
Li invites readers to share his interior life, to hear untold stories from his martial arts and film career, and to meditate with him on the nature of spiritual awakening. If you look deeply, you can see Li’s life philosophy in many of his movies, and in Beyond Life and Death he fully links his own story and spiritual journey with 10 actionable insights that anyone can apply to live a healthy and happy life.
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of How to Change Your Mind, a panoptic exploration of consciousness--what it is, who has it, and why--and a meditation on the essence of our humanity. When it comes to the phenomenon that is consciousness, there is one point on which scientists, philosophers, and artists all agree: that it feels like something to be us. Yet the fact we have subjective experience of the world remains one of nature's greatest mysteries. How is it that our mental operations are accompanied by feelings, thoughts, and a sense of self? What would a scientific investigation of our inner life look like, considering we have as little distance and perspective on it as fish do of the sea? In A World Appears, Michael Pollan traces the unmapped continent that is consciousness, bringing radically different perspectives--scientific, philosophical, literary, spiritual and psychedelic--to see what each can teach us about this central fact of life. When neuroscientists began studying consciousness in the early 1990s, they sought to explain how and why three pounds of spongy grey matter could generate a subjective point of view--assuming that the brain is the source of our felt reality. Pollan takes us to the cutting edge of the field, where scientists are entertaining more radical (and less materialist) theories of consciousness. He introduces us to "plant neurobiologists" searching for the first flicker of consciousness in plants; scientists striving to engineer feelings into AI, and psychologists and novelists seeking to capture the felt experience of our slippery stream of consciousness. In Pollan's dazzling exploration of consciousness, he discovers a world far deeper and stranger than our everyday reality. Eye-opening and mind-expanding, A World Appears takes us into the laboratories of our own minds, ultimately showing us how we might make better use of the gift of awareness to more meaningfully connect with our deepest selves.

What if Africa’s knowledge traditions could guide our way through today’s planetary crisis? This is the true story of how Africa’s Ngoma traditions helped shape the sustainable transition strategies of some of the continent’s largest organisations. For generations, Indigenous Knowledge Systems have cultivated resilience, foresight, and adaptability. This book explores how these time-tested ways of training and knowing are being called upon again to meet the uncertainty of disruption. Nicola Robins’ journey started two decades ago when she heard the voice of the spirits while auditing a diamond mine in Australia. Returning home to South Africa, her scientific mind spiralled out of control, forcing a choice between the methods of modern medicine and the call of traditional Africa. Her choice took her into a world where mountains do speak. Her cure carried an obligation to bring what she learnt back to the world of business. When things are uncertain, we can’t predict the future. As the shift to farming brought new risks and uncertainties, traditional African communities used divination, spirits, and ritual to find a way forward. It kept their progress just and within the bounds of nature. This book explores how these ancient cognitive technologies can help organisations navigate change that defies orthodox strategies. Diviner Mind invites readers into a world grappling with disruption, rekindling our natural capacity for sense-making. It offers a compelling view on the challenge of our time: how to navigate uncertainty while bringing Earth’s social, ecological, and cultural systems into renewed balance.
