Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queer critique, queer practice: embodied teachings for healing from trauma and social injustice. Jacoby Ballard provides an empowering and affirming guide to embodied healing through yoga and the dharma, grounded in the brilliance, resilience, and lived experiences of queer folks. Part I deconstructs the ways mainstream yoga perpetuates queer- and transphobia and other systemic oppressions, exploring the intersections of yoga, capitalism, cultural appropriation, and sexual violence. Ballard also addresses the trauma--complex, vicarious, historical, and collective--perpetuated against queer communities. In response, he offers tools for self-compassion, tonglen, lovingkindness, and grounding, and helps readers explore questions like: What is trauma? How is it a product of injustice--and how can healing it create justice? The world won't stop being homo- and transphobic, so how do I encounter that in a way that does the least harm? How do we love what is uniquely trans about us? What are affinity groups, and why do we need them? In part II, Ballard offers a queer-centered, fully embodied, and equity-rooted practice with meditations, practices, and sequences for processing and healing from trauma individually and in community. He explains concepts like lovingkindness, letting go, compassion, joy, forgiveness, and equanimity through a queer lens, and pairs each with corresponding meditations, practices, and beautiful line drawings of queer bodies. Enhanced with stories from Ballard's personal practice and professional experience teaching yoga in schools, prisons, conferences, and his weekly Queer and Trans Yoga class, A Queer Dharma is a guidebook, reclamation, and unapologetically queer heart offering for true healing and transformation.

Book Work Pressures

Download or read book Work Pressures written by Dawna Ballard and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work Pressures fills the void of research on the nature of pressures on individuals in the workplace. It offers a broad view of how work pressures can compromise the performance and vitality of individuals and their organizations. The contributions to this volume not only confirm communication’s centrality to the problems work pressures pose, but also open an interdisciplinary conversation about how to learn from and, ultimately, manage them. Specific topics covered include the proliferation of communication technologies, organizational discourse, work overload, and generational differences in the workplace.

Book Reconstructing Modernism

Download or read book Reconstructing Modernism written by Ashley Maher and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-12 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reconstructing Modernism establishes for the first time the centrality of modernist buildings and architectural periodicals to British mid-century literature. Drawing upon a wealth of previously unexplored architectural criticism by British authors, this book reveals how arguments about architecture led to innovations in literature, as well as to redesigns in the concept of modernism itself. While the city has long been a focus of literary modernist studies, architectural modernism has never had its due. Scholars usually characterize architectural modernism as a parallel modernism or even an incompatible modernism to literature. Giving special attention to dystopian classics Brave New World and Nineteen Eighty-Four, this study argues that sustained attention to modern architecture shaped mid-century authors' political and aesthetic commitments. After many writers deemed modernist architects to be agents for communism and other collectivist movements, they squared themselves--and literary modernist detachment and aesthetic autonomy--against the seemingly tyrannical utopianism of modern architecture; literary aesthetic qualities were reclaimed as political qualities. In this way, Reconstructing Modernism redraws the boundaries of literary modernist studies: rather than simply adding to its canon, it argues that the responsibility for defining literary modernism for the mid-century public was shared by an incredible variety of authors--Edwardians, modernists, satirists, and even anti-modernists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Waypoints Along the Book Mountains is an historical glimpse of the Little Book Cliff range in western Colorado extending to Utah as the Book Cliffs. People living along this range enjoy watching the sun cast the alpenglow on the cliffs as the sun sets. Ute people, ranchers, settlers even hermits have occupied the cedar, pinion and oak brush-covered slopes. Old and new coal mines dot the mountain from Palisade to Price . The Ute people leaving Colorado at the time of the Meeker Massacre used most of the state for hunting. They also used the numerous hot springs in the mountains for medicinal purposes. Forced to go to the reservation in Utah they are now trying to bridge the gaps with pow-wows at Meeker and Montrose. Traveling to other reservations for the Bear Dance"--Back cover.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 427 pages

Download or read book Missing Persons 4 written by Leonard Lowe and published by Denk-Verlag.com. This book was released on 2024-08-11 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ★★★★★ Exciting and frightening »Just like the previous three books, I couldn't put it down. ... I certainly hope for a further continuation of the series.« ★★★★★ Captivating and frightening »In the 4th part as well, cases are described that simply leave one stunned. The author's evaluations and theories probably come very close to the truth…« ★★★★★ Mega exciting! »A very exciting and also somewhat eerie book. Good structuring of the individual fates. One can hardly believe how many people simply vanish into thin air. Highly recommended!« These people simply disappear. Very profoundly and very decisively. So much so that even tracking dogs can no longer follow the trail they must have left behind. The question here is: Are the dogs unwilling to follow the trail because they are afraid… or is there simply no trail, perhaps because the trail has vanished with the victim from our timeline, from our causality? Or is there no trail because the victim has disappeared into a parallel reality, leaving their trail there, in this parallel reality…? They are simply gone… as if they were never there… some reappear… under highly mysterious circumstances… these are their stories. In numerous cases, search teams report having seen the victim, who supposedly ran away from them… or they find traces of the victim that are so scattered that it is questionable whether the traces belong to the victim, and if so, how the victim could have been in these various, widely separated locations. Conversely, the victims—if they are found alive and can make a statement—report that they were pursued by 'strange people,' that they were chased through the forest. A woman says that they seemed not to see her… the people were right in front of her, yet they appeared to see 'through' her. Are we talking about the same event here? Do the victims see their rescuers, who are searching for them… but due to a strange confusion of their minds, they do not recognize them and perceive them as a threat, as 'strange people' chasing them through the forest? And do the rescuers not see the victim? Even though the victim is right in front of them… like a ghost…
