The spirituality of a fey person may be quite anarchic and entirely
private, having no basis in any organised religion. So it can be a
secret spirituality that informs the fey type and this may be
largely experiential. It has often been perceived as a threat by
people who like ideas to be tied down and under control, and by the
organisations that such people have created. Meanwhile, in much of
today's world, fey people have been thoroughly marginalized. In
this book, Rae Beth suggests ways in which we might understand
Otherworldly realities without abandoning commonsense. Drawing upon
her knowledge of traditional faerie lore, she shows how fey
perceptions and psychic skills can serve and enhance life.
Life can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be.
Today’s fast-paced world leaves many of us struggling with extreme
emotional highs and lows caused by chemical imbalances in our brains,
brought on by the pressures of modern life and constant digital
connectivity.
In The DOSE Effect, Neuroscientist TJ Power shares how you can reset
and balance your brain chemistry with simple, everyday habits to lead a
happier, healthier, and more productive life.
Unlock your brain’s four key chemicals and discover the powers of:
- DOPAMINE to get motivated and stay driven
- OXYTOCIN to build deeper connections with others
- SEROTONIN to boost your energy and mood
- ENDORPHINS to destress and find calm
TJ’s practical approach and straightforward solutions will guide you on
an exciting, action-based journey to optimise your brain chemistry and
transform your mental health.

This book is an immersive experience into the delights of foraging in
Spring, written by one of Britain's most respected foragers. Forage In
Spring celebrates the top fifteen edible and medicinal wild plants
found in March, April and May. It's a comprehensive exploration of
their past and present uses as food and medicine. An invaluable
addition to any forager, herbalist, gardener, horticulturist or
naturalist's library, providing plant-lovers with a much-needed
resource to understanding nature's most useful wild plants. Inside,
you'll discover the forgotten story of Alexanders, Brooklime, Cleavers
(Goosegrass), Dandelion, Garlic Mustard, Ground Elder, Ground Ivy,
Plantain, Primrose, Ramsons (Wild Garlic), Sea Beet, Sorrel,
Sowthistle, Stinging Nettle and Violet. Plants have stories that
reconnect us to the Land and the rest of Nature. As our society becomes
ever more disconnected, there is a revivalist movement flourishing like
a rhizome. This ancient path of the forager reconnects us to the vital,
to wildness, to creation, to what is in effect the very pulse of life
itself. One of the most direct ways to experience this is to consume
this wildness. Take it into our bodies, where like a sleeper agent, it
lies dormant until you have eaten enough to change the structure of
your blood, thereby changing your brain and how you relate to the
non-human world. For it is this simple act. The act of taking wild food
and medicine into our body, that in time becomes so transformative.
Forage In Spring is not a harking back to some naive, romantic vision
of how we might once have lived. Instead, these plants' stories are a
way to help you sense into the future and understand our ecological
function (as a species) within the world.
Learn to forage in the hedgerows like the herbalists of the past As
many of us look for ways to live a more planet-friendly lifestyle,
the sustainable and ethical art of foraging offers us a way to
connect with the world around us. It is a practice rich in
tradition and steeped in history, and one that links us to our past
and our future. This foraging companion is designed to be taken
with you on your adventures into the hedgerows, forests and
woodland all year round. Helpfully arranged by season, this book
includes clear photographs to aid plant identification, ideas on
how best to prepare and preserve your finds, fascinating foraging
and plant folklore, and handy pages to make your own notes and
drawings. Additional features: Paperback and lightweight (approx.
330g) design, to allow you to take the book with you while foraging
A month-by-month foraging calendar Advice on foraging etiquette and
tips for creating a forager's toolkit This is the essential guide
to enjoying the bountiful delights of the hedgerows.
In spiritual teacher Osho's Aspects of Meditation Book 3:
Awareness, the Key you'll discover a deeper understanding of
meditation through an investigation into the subtle workings of the
mind--transforming the unconscious through awareness. The West has
taken to meditation with great enthusiasm. We contemplate. We
concentrate. We embrace mindfulness techniques and a multitude of
mantras. We have undertaken to "do" meditation. The Aspects of
Meditation series is comprised of brief, precious texts in which
Osho shows us the core of meditation is not about sitting silently
or chanting a mantra. It is, instead, a question of understanding
the subtle workings of the mind. In Book 3, Osho explores different
states of unconsciousness and the ways in which they can transform
awareness of the here and now.
Covers forty eight wild edible and medicinal plants of Britain and
Ireland.
Includes multiple full-colour photographs of each plant to help make
identification easy.
