Are you sleepwalking through life, overwhelmed by an unending stream of desires, duties and demands?

In this groundbreaking guide, Deepak Chopra reveals how you can connect with your true self and break free from the limitations of the ego. Building on decades of spiritual teachings, Chopra takes you through 40 sutras – statements that capture the essence of a profound truth – and shows you how to move from a state of simply surviving to one where you can access deeper intuition and insights.

Featuring practical exercises, meditations and personal stories from Chopra's own spiritual journey, Awakening will shake you from the nightmare of a limited self and invite you to embrace a new way of being – one marked by inner peace, purpose and boundless possibility, where miracles become everyday occurrences.

On the other side of the life you are trying to keep together, on the other side of the pain you think will never dissolve into peace, on the other side of everything you are forcing - is the life that is waiting.

The life where you are not pushed by your fears, but moved by your vision. The life where the right things arrive, and remain, and you do not have to contort your truth to make them so. The life where you are actually living, not just waiting to begin. The life that is really yours. The life you arrive to the end of with tired eyes and a full heart. The life that you are proud of. The life that you actually want. The life that is gently asking you to let go, and see it.

The life that's been waiting, all this time, for you to arrive.

An unexpected diagnosis.
A breakup.
A redundancy.

When life throws a curveball, this book helps us through.

After an incident in her own life left her reeling, pioneering cognitive scientist Maya Shankar managed the uncertainty by dedicating herself to researching the mind. Now, her powerful book invites us to rethink our relationship with change altogether.

Sharing the riveting stories of others who have also gone through remarkable disruption, Maya unpicks scientific insights to illuminate the universal lessons hidden within them. Exploring our complex reactions to all kinds of change, from denial and guilt to rumination and stagnation, we’re offered tools and strategies to unlock our full potential in the face of upheaval.

Change isn't something to just endure. It doesn't have to leave us feeling stuck, hopeless or broken. Approached in the right way, it can lead us to uncover new abilities, perspectives and values, transforming us in extraordinary ways.

Whether you're processing a past change, grappling with a present one, or bracing for a future one, discover who you can become on the other side of change.

This beautiful pocket self-help book teaches us to notice three-second glimmers of joy every day, to build resilience and deal with difficult times.

In difficult times it's easy to get lost in the darkness – but this beautiful pocket self-help book gives us the tools to find three-second glimmers of joy every day, to build our resilience and keep us going.

Did you just taste something delicious? That was a glimmer. Notice the way the light slanted in through the window? That was a glimmer.

Glimmers are easy to miss as they’re so brief and fleeting, but they can help your mood shift, and lift. Finding them – uncovering them on the commute, or while doing the same-old daily routine – is an art and a skill. Looking for glimmers is a recognized mental health practice to enable you to deal with the darkest days.

In this book, 12 thematic chapters each hold 30 or 31 beautiful glimmers plus two aligned alternatives, amounting to one entry for every day of the year – and more than 1,000 glimmers. Learn to notice micro-moments of joy such as putting on a pair of new socks, stroking a purring cat, popping a cork, walking up a hill and looking back at how far you've come, finishing a jar, watching a rainbow brighten, sinking your hands into earth, being told "no rush", reviving a dying fire, and hundreds more.

With beautiful line-drawn illustrations, exercises to help you uncover more joy, and reflections on the history and effects of glimmers, this fun, fresh book is small enough to pop in your bag – but big enough to expand your life.

Every day we're bombarded with methods, mantras and life hacks that promise us wellness and prosperity - while time and talent remain some of our most squandered resources. The average full-time worker will spend 80,000 hours at their job: are you making the most of them? Do you truly believe in what you do, day in, day out?

What if you want to do something more with your limited time on the planet?

Internationally bestselling author Rutger Bregman shows us that with moral ambition - the will to make the world a wildly better place - we can be both idealistic and successful, and change the world along the way. Uncovering the qualities that made the great change-makers of history so effective, he shows how we too can lend our talents to the biggest challenges of our time, from climate change to inequality to the next pandemic. With moral ambition, we can do more than be on the right side of history: we can make history itself.

This book won't make your life easier, but it should make it more meaningful. The question is: what will you do with it?

Self-doubt. It’s the silent force that undermines potential, eats away at confidence and traps even the most capable in overthinking. You can’t outperform it, but you can rewire it.

Drawing on leading research, over a decade of work with Fortune 500 companies, and experience educating millions of professionals worldwide, Dr Shadé Zahrai reveals a proven system for breaking the cycle of self-doubt and building deep, unshakable self-trust. In Big Trust she shares her proven framework – the Four A’s: Acceptance, Agency, Autonomy and Adaptability – and shows you how to take control of your inner world so you can thrive in the outer one.

With insights from her self-diagnostic quiz and actionable exercises throughout, you’ll learn to:

• Reframe the beliefs that hold you back
• Break free from people-pleasing and perfectionism
• Quiet comparison and imposter thoughts
• Stretch your comfort zone and reclaim your power
• Channel emotion into clarity and conviction

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the author of the international mega-bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck comes a counterintuitive guide to the problems of hope. We live in an interesting time. Materially, everything is the best it's ever been-we are freer, healthier and wealthier than any people in human history. Yet, somehow everything seems to be irreparably and horribly f*cked-the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter. At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education and communication our ancestors couldn't even dream of, so many of us come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness. What's going on? If anyone can put a name to our current malaise and help fix it, it's Mark Manson. In 2016, Manson published The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck, a book that brilliantly gave shape to the ever-present, low-level hum of anxiety that permeates modern living. He showed us that technology had made it too easy to care about the wrong things, that our culture had convinced us that the world owed us something when it didn't-and worst of all, that our modern and maddening urge to always find happiness only served to make us unhappier. Instead, the "subtle art" of that title turned out to be a bold challenge: to choose your struggle; to narrow and focus and find the pain you want to sustain. The result was a book that became an international phenomenon, selling millions of copies worldwide while becoming the #1 bestseller in 13 different countries. Now, in Everthing Is F*cked, Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us. Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another. He looks at our relationships with money, entertainment and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat us alive. He openly defies our definitions of faith, happiness, freedom-and even of hope itself. With his usual mix of erudition and where-the-f*ck-did-that-come-from humor, Manson takes us by the collar and challenges us to be more honest with ourselves and connected with the world in ways we probably haven't considered before. It's another counterintuitive romp through the pain in our hearts and the stress of our soul. One of the great modern writers has produced another book that will set the agenda for years to come.

Amidst a current tidal wave of negativity, Raising Champions emerges as a powerful and timely antidote for our country. Drawing from the personal journeys of three of South Africa’s most celebrated sports figures, Olympic gold medallist Chad le Clos, Bafana Bafana legend Shaun Bartlett, and 2007 Rugby World Cup winner CJ van der Linde, Raising Champions reveals how discipline, character, faith and having the right values can elevate ordinary youth into extraordinary leaders.

Written by life coach and author Myan Subrayan, the book serves as a motivational road map for parents, teachers, coaches and young people navigating today’s broken world. It delivers practical insights and powerful testimonies that prove our youth are not doomed to be another statistic. With the right mentorship and guidance, they can rise above their circumstances and become champions not just in sport, but in life.

This book is also a valuable resource for business leaders and organisations looking to inspire their teams with the timeless principles of commitment, perseverance and character. It challenges leaders to lead by example and equips them with insights that can ignite a culture of excellence and purpose within the workplace.

Raising Champions is a clarion call to a nation: it’s time to rebuild, one value-driven young person at a time.

The #1 SUNDAY TIMES bestselling authors and award-winning podcasters Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach, and Amanda Doyle created We Can Do Hard Things the guidebook for being alive — to help fellow travelers find their way through life.

When you travel through a new country, you need a guidebook.

When you travel through love, heartbreak, joy, parenting, friendship, uncertainty, aging, grief, new beginnings – life – you need a guidebook, too.

We Can Do Hard Things is the guidebook for being alive.

Every day, Glennon Doyle spirals around the same questions: Why am I like this? How do I figure out what I want? How do I know what to do? Why can’t I be happy? Am I doing this right?

The harder life gets, the less likely she is to remember the answers she’s spent her life learning. She wonders: I’m almost fifty years old. I’ve overcome a hell of a lot. Why do I wake up every day having forgotten everything I know?

Glennon’s compasses are her sister, Amanda, and her wife, Abby. Recently, in the span of a single year, Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia, Amanda was diagnosed with breast cancer, and Abby’s beloved brother died. For the first time, they were all lost at the same time. So they turned toward the only thing that’s ever helped them find their way: deep, honest conversations with other brave, kind, wise people.

They asked each other, their dearest friends, and 118 of the world’s most brilliant wayfinders: As you’ve traveled these roads —marriage, parenting, work, recovery, heartbreak, aging, new beginnings—have you collected any wisdom that might help us find our way?

As Glennon, Abby, and Amanda wrote down every life-saving answer, they discovered two things:

• No matter what road we are walking down, someone else has traveled the same terrain.
• The wisdom of our fellow travelers will light our way.

I know exactly what it's like to put others first, to settle for less than you deserve and to navigate relationships while trying to balance your independence and goals. But we are worth more than this.

Having embarked on my self-love journey, I found that women often lacked clarity on what self-love really means and how to achieve it and this needs to change. I've packed Buy Yourself the Damn Flowers with lessons and methods I've learnt so that no woman is left accepting what life throws at her, but rather can use every moment as a tool to craft her dream self and reality. Whether you're single, taken, heartbroken, healing or trying to level up into the best version of yourself, this book is for you.

Buy Yourself the Damn Flowers is an in-depth, comprehensive guide for all things self-love, including actionable homework, transformative tools and reassuring information that will help every woman learn to:

- set boundaries
- escape external validation
- build confidence
- transform pain into power
- maintain loving yourself whilst loving others, and so much more.

Every woman deserves to cultivate a lasting love for the person who matters most: you. It's finally time to buy yourself the damn flowers.

A book that changes everything - from the legendary Dr Gabor Maté.

Western countries invest billions in healthcare, yet mental illness and chronic diseases are on a seemingly unstoppable rise. Nearly 70% of Americans are now on prescription drugs. So what is 'normal' when it comes to health?

Over four decades of clinical experience, renowned physician and addiction expert Dr Gabor Maté has seen how health systems neglect the role that trauma exerts on our bodies and our minds. Medicine often fails to treat the whole person, ignoring how today's culture stresses our bodies, burdens our immune systems and undermines emotional balance.

Now, in his most ambitious and urgent book yet, Dr Maté connects the dots between our personal suffering and the pressures of modern-day living - with disease as a natural reflection of a life spent growing further and further apart from our true selves. But, with deep compassion, he also shows us a pathway to health and healing.

Filled with stories of people in the grip of illness or in the triumphant wake of recovery, this life-affirming book, co-written with his son Daniel, proves true health is possible - if we are willing to reconnect with each other and our authentic selves.
