When I Loved Myself Enough is a beautiful collection of wisdom that is startling in its simplicity. By the end of the book the message becomes clear: loving yourself holds the key to loving others and having others love you. By sharing her insights, the author also shows us how to feel the same sense of peace and quiet joy that illuminated her life.
This book began as one woman's gift to the world, hand-made by Kim McMillen and handed out to friends. After Kim's death her daughter Alison continued making the books - and word of mouth turned this into an underground bestseller in America. Today, over two decades later, it brings comfort and inspiration to readers around the world.
Combining the best current medical knowledge with a new approach grounded in integrative medicine, Dr Chopra and Dr Tanzi offer a groundbreaking model of healing and the immune system.
Heal yourself from the inside out
Our immune systems can no longer be taken for granted. Current trends in public healthcare are disturbing: our increased air travel allows newly mutated bacteria and viruses to spread across the globe, antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria outstrip the new drugs that are meant to fight them, deaths due to hospital-acquired infections are increasing, and the childhood vaccinations of our aging population are losing their effectiveness. Now more than ever, our well-being is at a dangerous crossroad.
But there is hope, and the solution lies within ourselves. The Healing Self is the new breakthrough book in self-care by bestselling author and leader in integrative medicine Deepak Chopra and Harvard neuroscientist Rudolph E Tanzi. They argue that the brain possesses its own lymphatic system, meaning it is also tied into the body's general immune system.
Based on this brand new discovery, they offer new ways of increasing the body's immune system by stimulating the brain and our genes, and through this they help us fight off illness and disease. Combined with new facts about the gut microbiome and lifestyle changes, diet and stress reduction, there is no doubt that this ground-breaking work will have an important effect on your immune system.
In Ten Trips neuropsychologist Andy Mitchell takes ten different
psychedelic drugs in ten different settings, puncturing the hype
while providing the fullest picture yet of their limitlessly
fascinating possibilities. Once demonised and still largely
illegal, psychedelic drugs are now officially a 'breakthrough
therapy', used to treat depression, trauma and addiction and to
enhance well-being. But as neuropsychologist Andy Mitchell shows in
this deeply serious yet wildly entertaining investigation, this
approach misses what is so strange and valuable about them: the
psychedelic experience itself. In Ten Trips he takes ten different
compounds, some famous, others obscure, journeying from a
neuroimaging lab in London to the Colombian Amazon via Silicon
Valley and his friend's basement kitchen. His encounters with
scientists and gangsters, venture capitalists and con-men,
psychonauts and shamans provide a panoramic view of psychedelics
today: their capacity for healing but also trauma, for
transcendence and corruption, profundity and hilarity. By removing
psychedelics from their indigenous and underground cultures, we
risk losing the very things we need to harness them. To make them
safe or normal might ultimately destroy what makes them potent.
That potential is indeed great, not as an antidote to mental
illness - none exists - but as a way of changing our whole
perspective on mental health and flourishing. Ten Trips is a
dazzling, perception-shifting odyssey that shows how psychedelics
can re-enchant us with the world.

Anatomy will be an invaluable resource-one that allows you to see

"Christine’s artistry as a yoga teacher is evident on every
page… [Her] voice, enthusiasm, and knowledge here are contagious.
When reading these pages, you’ll feel as though you are
practicing with her. It will be a fun, uplifting, healing, and even

Magazine Discover how to heal both body and mind using only your
breath and your hands. In Healing Breath and Mudras, Christine
Burke shows how you already have all you need to heal both physical
and emotional conditions and improve your overall wellbeing. Breath
awareness has been linked to calming the body and brain, regulating
blood pressure, improving memory and immune function, preventing
heart attacks, and easing chronic pain and asthma. Mudras are known
as ‘yoga for the hands’: they are hand poses and positions that
channel energy and offer a point of focus during meditation.
Christine teaches you a range of breathing techniques and reveals
the background behind mudras and how best to use them, then offers
breath and mudra practices for 36 conditions, divided into body and
mind. Each practice also includes an accompanying ‘jewel
thought’ meditation.
Dit is nie noodwendig maklik om bly te wees nie – maar Johannes de Villiers wys hoe dit ’n haalbare doel is vir enigiemand. Vind in hierdie boek ’n omvattende blik op lewensvreugde; alles van teorieë oor wat presies blydskap behels tot praktiese wenke om dit te bereik, met inligting van spiritueles sowel as sielkundiges. Ware verhale staaf sy voorstelle, soos dié van die man wie se pad na blydskap begin het toe Geheime Polisie hom skiet.
Zarine Roodt besluit om die Camino Portugués te stap as aanloop tot haar sestigste verjaardag. Maar om dít te kan doen, moet sy eers haar lewenslange patroon van fisieke onaktiwiteit takel.
Tot haar ontnugtering is die Camino nie van begin tot einde die salige en spirituele ervaring wat sy in die vooruitsig gestel het nie.
Maar tog… eers na afloop van die Camino besef sy hoe haar staptog vorm aangeneem het en dat dít ’n psigiese rigtingwyser is: "Vir my is daar maar net één pad, en dis die een wat ek self moet vind."
