Fans of Untamed, this is your next favorite read." -POPSUGAR "I've fallen in love with Jamie's words and how she so effortlessly can make us feel united with them. She has a true gift of helping us realize that all of our 'human' moments are what make us so special. She is a real light in this world." -Lucy Hale, Award-Winning Actress from Pretty Little Liars, The Hating Game, and more Blending memoir, sharp social insights, and unique practical tools, author Jamie Varon is your guide to radical contentment-a satisfied life outside the bounds of societal expectations. Too many of us are waiting for our lives to begin, putting our happiness on layaway for some future version where it all lines up, when we've accomplished it all, when we have the perfect career, bodies, partners, and when our lives finally feel "good enough." But what is good enough? Who gets to decide? And when do we ever reach it? Jamie takes a sharp, incisive look at the industries that are constantly telling us to do more, be more, and keep striving, pushing, and hustling-and shows you how to radically opt out of societal conditioning. We've learned to be terrified of contentment, thinking it will lead us to complacency. Yet, being content in a world that profits off our dissatisfaction is not complacency. It's revolutionary. Radically Content makes the case for a new framework of living. Exploring themes like guilt, I'll be happy when..., anxiety, settling, control, healing, shame, self-trust, and being our own worst enemies-not only will you unlearn the dogma of that discontent, but learn practical tools to create a more satisfied life for yourself, including: Cultivating real self-trust Defining your own version of "success" Living with intention Rewriting your personal narrative Creating consistent and healing rituals Packed with revelatory insights, Radically Content is an exhale. A respite from the chaos of our current world. A calm place to land when you've had enough with trying to be enough.

Collaboration The Mind's Eye is a collaboration between the artist's emotional response to the poems and the immediacy of the poet's reaction to nature and personal encounters. The Poet Gail Gowers Cotton is a member of the Poetry Society and the British Haiku Society. Her poems have appeared in the Societies' journals as well as in other specialist magazines. She "scatters" her work by leaving poems on buses, in cafes and tucked into library books. The Mind's Eye is her second book. Her inspiration comes from nature and personal encounters including memories of Ireland, Africa, North Wales and visits to Sydenham Hill Woods, Dulwich Picture Gallery and the Horniman Museum in South London, where she now lives. The Artist Pat Keay graduated as a painter at the Edinburgh College of Art in 1971. She has worked as an artist and designer in Scotland, Kenya and London and now lives in Worthing.

’n Stil gemoed verskyn oorspronklik in 1993 in Engels onder die titel Tranquil Mind. Die eerste Afrikaanse uitgawe verskyn in 1997, en die tyd is dus ryp vir ’n heruitgawe. ’n Stil gemoed is ’n eenvoudige inleiding tot die Boeddhisme en meditasie. Die Boeddhisme is wesenlik ’n aantal metodes om met die verstand en gemoed om te gaan. As ons hierdie metodes verstaan en op ons lewens toepas, sal hulle ons inherente vermoe om innerlike vrede, erbarming en wysheid te ervaar laat ontplooi deur die potensiaal van ons gees te ontwikkel. Mediteerders in die Weste ervaar unieke probleme as gevolg van hul kulturele, sosiale en sielkundige agtergrond. Aan die hand van sy uitgebreide akademiese en praktiese ervaring stel die skrywer van hierdie inleiding die onderwerp bekend op ’n manier wat met die invloede rekening hou.
