In an increasingly hectic world, Plantfulness is a guide to help
you reconnect with nature while reaching for a peaceful and mindful
life. Finding the perfect houseplant for you can be daunting,
particularly for those who feel like they have a black touch rather
than a green thumb, but Plantfulness guides you through 50
houseplants which can give back to you in a symbiotic relationship
which allows you both to thrive. Featuring the practical benefits,
from cleaner air and beautiful scents, to the emotional ones, like
creative inspiration and a daily sense of accomplishment for caring
for them, Plantfulness is the perfect choice for anyone wishing to
improve their wellbeing and enjoy nature from the comfort of their
home. An internationally respected expert on mindfulness and
houseplant enthusiast, Dr Jonathan Kaplan works as a clinical
psychologist in New York City. He lives with his wife, 2 kids, 2
cats, and asparagus fern Rhonda.
'Colour your way to inner peace.' Daily Express This isn't just a
book; rather, it is a magical portal to many wondrous worlds.
Within these pages you'll find tree-top castles, floating islands
and fairytale villages, all waiting to be brought to life in your
colours. Go on an adventure and let your imagination roam from
world to world, discovering enchanted sea turtles, curious cats and
lost song birds along the way. In this new colouring book, Johanna
Basford lends her signature style of inky illustration to a series
of brand new inkscapes and themes, all with a sprinkling of her
much-loved botanicals. Get ready to discover a whole new world of
colours.
Dip in to this pack of 50 illustrated cards to refresh and
revitalize your senses. How much of the world's beauty have we
become indifferent to, caught up in the bustle and rush of
day-to-day life? Take a break from the madness, and from your
smartphone, and rediscover the magic of the world around you.
Surprising, engaging prompts will help you hone in and focus on the
world around you and tune back in to the things that really matter.
Journey on the path of self-discovery through the magic of
crystals. Whether you need the power to help you with your home,
health or happiness, this book contains the guidance, advice and
rituals you need to be in sync with your spirituality. The beauty
and uniqueness of crystals and other stones have long been
recognized for their mystic influence in our day-to-day lives.
Historically, people used them for trade and jewellery and, even in
modern times, we use them to create new and wonderous technologies.
They are the product of natural energy derived from cosmic and
geological forces including stars, the sun and intense heat and
pressure from the Earth, so it makes sense to recycle this
potential. The Magic of Crystals explores how you can unlock this
potent vitality with practical advice on what crystals you will
need to enhance particular characteristics in your home, how to
combine their energy with feng shui to create happiness and
harmony, how to relieve spiritual blockages in your chakras plus
much, much more. There are also quick reference pages that give
advice on how to solve common problems.

As lifelong meditators and mindfulness teachers, we confess we were
almost embarrassed when we stumbled onto a 5-15 second shortcut to
transcendence. This idea ran counter to everything we knew about
meditation before we began our research. But, yes, it is possible.
It only requires accessing the powerful emotion of awe in ordinary,
everyday life. The changes in our lives have been profound, and
after seeing the results repeated again and again in our thousands
of patients, clients, and study participants, we've proven that our
shortcut, coined the A.W.E. Method, works. -from the Preface Think
about the last time you were truly in awe - perhaps on a walk or
whilst watching a musician perform live - maybe you felt goosebumps
or you lost your sense of time? Unbeknownst to you, some pretty
incredible things were happening inside your body. Your
fight-flight-freeze response became less active and activity
decreased in your brain's default mode network, which is associated
with both chronic pain and anxiety. Your interleukin-6 levels
decreased, which can reduce chronic inflammation and lower your
risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and depression. Being in
awe can be beneficial to both your mind and body and now the AWE
method provides a shortcut to all these benefits and is accessible
to anyone, anywhere. ATTENTION (give your full focus to something),
WAIT (take a deep breath and appreciate that thing), EXHALE and
EXPAND (as you exhale slowly, allow your feelings to expand and
grow). 5-15 seconds, two or three times a day - that's all! In this
book you'll learn: - about the surprising and little known science
of awe - how we unwittingly cut ourselves off from feeling awe -
how AWE can enhance traditional mental health therapies -
strategies for using AWE to improve relationships, alleviate
existential anxiety and manage chronic pain - the different types
of awe we can experience (sensorial, conceptual, and
interconnected) - how to recognize and get good at experiencing
each type of awe Learn how to microdose mindfulness through the
power of AWE now.
