Book A Taste for Trouble  Memories from Another Time

Download or read book A Taste for Trouble Memories from Another Time written by Aniruddha Bahal and published by Context. This book was released on with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AN EASY TO READ, ANECDOTAL ACCOUNT OF THE LIFE OF ONE OF INDIA’S BEST-KNOWN INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISTS. ANIRUDDHA BAHAL has spelt trouble for the Establishment for as long as he can even remember. As a boy of barely fifteen, he ran away from home, all the way from Allahabad to Bombay—returning a week later, chastened and penniless, but with valuable lessons learnt. As a journalist, he transformed the definition and boundaries of reporting with the risks he took and the stories he chased down. And he paid the price for it. As a writer, his first novel won him international recognition— as well as the Bad Sex in Fiction Award, handed to him by no less a personage than Sting. As an entrepreneur, he went against the grain in setting up an investigative news portal at a time when speaking truth to power was no longer on the agenda of media houses. Over the years, this restless, mischievous boy from a village in Uttar Pradesh has come to epitomise the rough and tumble of political journalism in New Delhi. What does such a man see and remember when he looks back? Of people, incidents, turning points, the disappointments and the triumphs, both personal and professional? Some memories, Bahal says, are better left buried, but A Taste for Trouble brings together those that continue to keep him anchored in the present and hopeful about the future.

Book The Complete Idiot s Guide to Past Life Regression

Download or read book The Complete Idiot s Guide to Past Life Regression written by Michael R. Hathaway and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2003 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judging by the more than 2 million web pages dealing with past lives and past life regression (PLR), people aren't only - seeing dead people, - they're interested in finding out whether or not they were some of those dead people in a previous life. Going way beyond a belief in reincarnation and karma, 'regressionists' want to know who they were and what their lives were like - and reputable psychiatrists are using hypnosis to reveal the past life issues that are keeping their patients from living better lives today. In CIG to Past Life Regression, a board-certified past life regression therapist reveals the ins and outs of PLR. Is past life regression for real? Are children really closer to their past lives than adults? Can I be hypnotized - and can I trust the hypnotist and what he/she tells me? What will a session be like? Is one session enough? And what about self-hypnosis? How can knowledge of past lives make my life better today?

Book Anxious Eaters  Anxious Mealtimes

Download or read book Anxious Eaters Anxious Mealtimes written by Marsha Dunn Klein OTR/L MEd FAOTA and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-29 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can grasshoppers help parents and feeding professionals teach anxious eaters about new foods? Marsha Dunn Klein, an internationally-known feeding therapist, provides the answer in this book—highlighting that most anxious eaters do not enjoy the sensations and varibility of new foods. In seeking to help them, she asks what you’d need to do to help yourself try a worrisome new food, such as a grasshopper. Drawing on her own experience trying grasshoppers while learning Spanish in Mexico, she personalizes the struggle of children to find new food enjoyment, providing a goldmine of practical, proven, and compassionate strategies for parents and professionals who work with anxious eaters. Learn how to: • find peace and enjoyment during mealtimes; • find ways to help anxious eaters fearlessly try new foods; • navigate the sensory variations in food smells, tastes, textures looks, sounds: and • help anxious eaters (and their parents) develop a more positive relationship with food. Because parents are absolutely central to mealtime success, the author incorporates parent insights throughout the book. Using encouragement, novelty, and fun, she invites everyone back to the table with a sensitive and pressure-free approach.

Book From a Caterpillar to a Butterfly  the Transformation from Victim to Victorious

Download or read book From a Caterpillar to a Butterfly the Transformation from Victim to Victorious written by Angel Power and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-03-13 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the prequel to “The Darkness & The Light”, also by Angel Power. These are the stories that go with the poetry. It is creatively broken down into metaphorical phases of a young woman’s transformation. Based on a true story, except for one fictitious scene that was written for therapeutic purposes, it begins with the end and ends with the beginning. Candid and raw, it exposes the dark reality of her tragic experiences and shares how she found the resilience to survive and transform. It will take you on a journey through overcoming exploitation, abuse, human trafficking, addictions, poverty, mental health challenges, the loss of a child, and more. It will explain stigma and the corruption of the social systems that claim to protect the most vulnerable. This will enlighten the reader to systemic injustices and the impacts on our vulnerable youth when protection is needed most. There is often prejudice toward high-risk youth and the challenges they face, especially those trying to cope with unmet needs. This book will bring validation to the reader from young adult to the guardians trying to protect them, as well as those who work in the field of trying to help them. It exposes some of the power imbalances and barriers that many women of all ages can face. In these confusing and scary times, exploitation continues to be on the rise and stigma still exists. It is hoped that this book will empower the victimized to find healthy coping mechanisms and natural ways of self-healing. For those who wish to protect them it may also provide some insights into never giving up the good fight that it takes in order to do so.

Book Cyprus and the Politics of Memory

Download or read book Cyprus and the Politics of Memory written by Rebecca Bryant and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-20 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The island of Cyprus has been bitterly divided for more than four decades. One of the most divisive elements of the Cyprus conflict is the writing of its history, a history called on by both communities to justify and explain their own notions of justice. While for Greek Cypriots the history of Cyprus begins with ancient Greece, for the Turkish Cypriot community the history of the island begins with the Ottoman conquest of 1571. The singular narratives both sides often employ to tell the story of the island are, as this volume argues, a means of continuing the battle which has torn the island apart, and an obstacle to resolution. Cyprus and the Politics of Memory re-orientates history-writing on Cyprus from a tool of division to a form of dialogue, and explores a way forward for the future of conflict resolution in the region.

Book Enough Pieces of Crazy to Go Around

Download or read book Enough Pieces of Crazy to Go Around written by Melanie Mills and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enough Pieces of Crazy to Go Around takes the reader on a journey through the life experiences of Melanie Mills as she struggles to identify and heal her trauma by navigating a system that dehumanizes and dismisses her at every turn. Unwinding the seemingly endless spiral down to memories long buried and bringing them to the light of day. Laying bare these horrors to a system more concerned with qualifying its own existence than providing real support, the reader sees how our culture bends to invent realities more suitable for appearance than effectiveness. Those who have experienced the dehumanizing effects of medical institutions – or who know someone who has – will appreciate Mills’ candor and honesty – with a bit of humour – as she documents the various barriers she faced to find treatment and community supports. With a narrative that brings the reader into the mind of someone experiencing Dissociative Identity Disorder, Mills’ self-awareness and knowledge of social systems offers incredible insight that is a must for anyone working or studying in social work, community development or medical fields. One part autobiographical and one part social analysis, Enough Pieces of Crazy provides a necessary and timely critique of a broken system and offers insight to possibilities for improving social supports for people facing mental health disorders. It is an opportunity for each of us to look inside our lives and our minds to see how we balance what is real and what is fantasy. Who we are and who we want to be. “Trauma is trauma, it’s nasty, and it fucks up our lives. But I have learned a great deal and understand more about my life. It is that package I want to share. The trauma I dealt with in therapy.”

For the majority of the players, it was the first time in their lives living in a foreign country; some of the more fortunate made trips to the Caribbean Series. The players' recollections range from their experiences on and off the field, to where they lived, what they ate, the ballparks, other players and irrepressible fans. The stories are often juxtaposed against the backdrop of Latin American political history, adding to the unique international flavor.

Book Sapphire Ice  Christian Romance

Download or read book Sapphire Ice Christian Romance written by Hallee Bridgeman and published by Olivia Kimbrell Press. This book was released on 2013-03-26 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Robin Bartlett, men were nothing more than violent users. After a hair-raising childhood, Robin and her two younger half sisters battled simply to survive. Determined to give her sisters a very different life from that of their mother; to never have to rely on a man for anything, she worked two jobs and put them both through college, while accepting help from no one. Her heart had turned to ice and she had no use for men or God. Antonio “Tony” Viscolli had grown up on the streets, homeless. At seventeen, he entered a downtown church with the intent of casing it, but found himself on his knees at the altar. After being fostered by the youth minister, Tony followed God’s leading and eventually became a very successful and powerful businessman. In a fallen world, he was a gem. When Tony bought the restaurant where Robin bartended, she immediately resented his intrusion into her well ordered, but exhausting, life. She suspected his offering her special attention and constant kindness was merely his way of expecting something from her in return, something she wasn’t willing to give. Tony knew God had led him to Robin. Would she ever allow herself to trust him? Could she ever allow herself to trust God? Or would the winter of their tragic youth rise from the shadows of the past and freeze any chance at happiness? *********** bridgeman, clean, christian, christian drama, christian family drama, christian fiction, christian love story, christian mystery, christian romance, christian romantic mystery, christian romantic suspense, christian romantic thriller, christian suspense, christian thriller, contemporary, contemporary christian, contemporary christian fiction, contemporary christian romance, contemporary christian suspense, contemporary drama, contemporary inspirational fiction, contemporary inspirational romance, contemporary inspirational suspense, contemporary love story, contemporary suspense, drama, dramatic christian, dramatic christian fiction, dramatic christian romance, dramatic christian suspense, dramatic inspirational fiction, dramatic inspirational romance, dramatic inspirational suspense, dramatic love story, dramatic suspense, edgy christian fiction, edgy christian romance, edgy inspirational fiction, edgy inspirational romance, fiction, God, hailey bridgeman, haley bridgeman, halle bridgeman, hallee bridgeman, Holy Spirit, inspirational, inspirational christian fiction, inspirational fiction, inspirational romance, inspirational suspense, Jesus, love, love story, olivia kimbrell press, romance, romantic christian, romantic christian fiction, romantic christian romance, romantic christian suspense, romantic drama, romantic inspirational fiction, romantic inspirational suspense, romantic inspirational thriller, romantic love story, romantic suspense, romantic themes, suspenseful drama, traditional love story, traditional romance, traditional suspense, Jewel Series, Sapphire Ice, Greater Than Rubies, Emerald Fire, Topaz Heat, Christmas Diamond, Christmas Star Sapphire, Religion and; Spirituality, Spirituality, Protestantism, Theology, Worship and; Devotion, Sacred Writings, Gifts, Personal Growth, Women, Music, Creationism, woman, Hebrew Bible (Old Testament), spiritual gift, Conduct of Life, Family, Health, Men's Inspirational, Miracles, Personal Testimonies, Women's Inspirational, Men's Personal Growth, Motivational, Philosophy, Spiritual Healing, Transformational, Women's Personal Growth, Evangelical, Life Application, inspire, inspires, inspiration, christian poetry, Hymns, christians, christianity, creation, spiritual gifts, man, men, personal testimony, relationship, Romantic Heroes, New Adult and; College, humor, Beaches, Second Chances, Wedding, Workplace, General, new adult, spirit, Sports, sport, football, Rich and; Wealthy, billionaire, millionaire, rich, wealthy, second chance, Mystery, Thriller and; Suspense Characters, Mystery, Thriller and; Suspense, Mystery, Thriller and; Suspense Moods, Mystery, Thriller and; Suspense Settings, Crime, Thriller and; Mystery , Female Protagonists, Mystery, Urban, Suspense, Murder, Literary Fiction Themes, Women's Fiction Themes, 21st Century, Childhood, Alcohol and; Drug Abuse, Family Life, Friendship, Love Stories, Marriage, Politics, Religion, School and; College, Career and; Workplace, Parenthood and; Children, Dating and; Relationships, Singlehood, Sisterhood, Weddings, alcohol abuse, drug abuse, religious, spiritual, career, working, parent and children, dating, relationships, single women, sister, Corporations, Romantic, visionary, sprititual, bestselling, best-selling, award winning, acclaimed, readers choice, five star, 5 star, favorite, rags to riches, cinderella story, clean best sellers, clean books for women, clean books for girls, clean books for teens, clean romance books, clean romance novels, clean romance stories, clean romance free, clean romance novella, clean suspense, Christian fiction books, Christian fiction romance, Christian fiction romance best sellers, Christian fiction romance books, Christian fiction mystery and suspense, Christian fiction for women Readers of Francine Rivers Redeeming Love will love this book

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we engage with food through memory and imagination? This expansive volume spans time and space to illustrate how, through food, people have engaged with the past, the future, and their alternative presents. Beth M. Forrest and Greg de St. Maurice have brought together first-class contributions, from both established and up-and-coming scholars, to consider how imagination and memory intertwine and sometimes diverge. Chapters draw on cases around the world-including Iran, Italy, Japan, Kenya, and the US-and include topics such as national identity, food insecurity, and the phenomenon of knowledge. Contributions represent a range of disciplines, including anthropology, history, philosophy, psychology, and sociology. This volume is a veritable feast for the contemporary food studies scholar.
