Bestselling author of the Wheat Belly franchise brings his next big, game changing idea - the human microbiome and the silent epidemic of SIBO - to the mainstream.
Dr Davis has connected the dots between ''gut health'' and many common, modern ailments and complaints. 1 in 3 people have SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), which causes a long list of health issues and illnesses; it is a silent and profound epidemic created by the absence of microbial species that our ancestors had even 50-100 years ago, which have been erased by the industrialisation of food and medicine.
Super Gut shares a four-week plan to reprogram your microbiome based on research and techniques that not only gets to the root of many diseases but improves levels of oxytocin (the bonding/happy hormone), brain health and promotes anti-aging and weight loss. Dr Davis provides not just the science and case studies but also more than 40 recipes and solutions. In Super Gut, he ensures readers understand the science, diagnose their gut issues, eradicate them and maintain their long-term health.
No one sets out to be a bad boss. But some bosses out there really do
give it all they’ve got. One in four of us feel like we are currently
working for our worst boss ever. That not only has a huge impact on our
enjoyment of the job, but our productivity also plummets, which surely
is no good for anyone!
The problem is, when you are stuck with a job or boss you don’t like,
you are given the same two pieces of advice; either suck it up or go
off and find a new job, which costs you time and a whole lot of
headspace, and costs businesses too!
My Boss is a Moron is all about the third way.
Serial entrepreneur and content creator Ben Askins shows you how to
handle a terrible boss, make the best of a bad situation and still come
out on top.
Taking you through the entire lifecycle of work from job descriptions
and interviews, to pay rises, promotions, annual leave and so much
more, My Boss is a Moron pulls back the curtain on why companies and
bosses make the choices they make, and what you can do to give yourself
the best possible chance of success.
With outrageous real boss stories and Askins’ beloved sarcasm and
humour, My Boss is a Moron is as entertaining as it is helpful and is
designed to help you sidestep silly company policies and terrible
management to ensure that you thrive at work, no matter the
circumstances.
"The average British family spends just 34 minutes a day together
during the week" "4 out of 10 women (over 12 million) feel that
they are about to burn out" "70 million days are lost from work
each year due to mental ill health in the form of anxiety,
depression and stress related conditions". These are just some of
the facts that are glaring at us and for some form a part of our
day-to-day living. Each one of us will at some point in our life
ask ourselves the pertinent question "why am I here or why was I
born?" My greatest belief is that whichever way we look at life we
were all born for a purpose and our purpose is to fine out. Our
quest to find out or live out this purpose is what leads us to the
purposeful life, which creates a Purposeful You. Purposeful You is
a now message about living a life of intention and proactively
doing things that give us a purposeful life. In its simplest form
it shows us that purpose + intention = desired outcome. An outcome
we can altogether influence by: 1. Creating meaningful work 2.
Creating meaningful love 3. Practicing self care 4. Being present
Television has conditioned us to tolerate visually entertaining
material measured out in spoonfuls of time, to the detriment of
rational public discourse and reasoned public affairs. In this
eloquent, persuasive book, Neil Postman alerts us to the real and
present dangers of this state of affairs, and offers compelling
suggestions as to how to withstand the media onslaught. Before we
hand over politics, education, religion, and journalism to the show
business demands of the television age, we must recognize the ways
in which the media shape our lives and the ways we can, in turn,
shape them to serve out highest goals.
An instant "New York Times" bestseller, this powerful book from
transformational expert Marci Shimoff, now in paperback, shows
readers how to live happier and more open-hearted lives by
experiencing more unconditional love.
In "Love for No Reason" Marci Shimoff guides readers towards a life
filled with love--the kind of love that doesn't depend on another
person, situation, or romantic partner.
"Love for No Reason" introduces a new way of thinking about love,
defining it as an inner state of being that anyone can access at
any time, and in any circumstance. To experience what Shimoff calls
"Love for No Reason," one doesn't need to have the right partner,
the perfect body, an ideal child, or a great job. As the book
demonstrates through the examples of those who are living in this
state of unconditional love, when you love for no reason you bring
love to the world around you, rather than expect love from it.
Supported by the latest scientific research on the biochemistry of
love, Shimoff outlines a revolutionary program to develop and
nurture more love from the inside out. She also offers practical
tools and breakthrough methods that will empower readers to bring
unconditional love to every aspect of their lives and introduces
150 Love Luminaries--world-renowned scientists, spiritual leaders,
and psychologists, as well as people who are living in the state of
Love for No Reason--many of whom share their moving personal
stories.
Regardless of the challenges people may face--whether they are
relationship, economic, or business pressures--this book will show
readers how they can become an unshakeable source of love for
themselves and everyone around them.
Here's what Liz Yelling (Double Olympian and Commonwealth Bronze
Medalist) said about it: "If you are new to running this is a basic
beginners guide to getting started. It will cover all your
questions about where to start and how to start. The author Annie
has written this from her heart, enlightening others from her own
experiences as a beginner. Now a regular runner and coach she now
hopes to help others embarking on their own running campaign." The
author Annie Page is a qualified UK Athletics Running Coach, an NLP
Trainer and Master Practitioner and a Coaching Master - who really
enjoys running! She says "I had not run since leaving school, where
I was probably one of the few who actually enjoyed cross country. I
started running again in 2004, with a friend and we started off not
being able to run for more than a couple of minutes and then
needing to walk, which was great because the plan we were following
told us to do just that (there is one at the end of the book). From
there I fell back in love with running, with racing and getting out
in the fresh air and enjoying the countryside. I joined my local
club Ampthill and Flitwick Flyers and have enjoyed the camaraderie
that goes with belonging to a fun, friendly, supportive and social
club. I wanted to give something back to the club and so became a
coach and have attended various UK Athletics run courses over the
years to keep my knowledge up to date." Content includes... Why
