Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Joy of Moaning turns on its head the notion that moaning is undesirable behaviour, something to be avoided and scorned. It delves into the detail of why we moan and most importantly provides a guide for doing it better. Moaning is no different from all the other pleasures that make us feel good. In moderation it’s enjoyable and beneficial but taken to excess it provides a short-term thrill followed by long-term problems. There have never been more things to complain about, more people anxious to join the moaning frenzy and more channels to express our displeasure. When you understand its intricacies, you are in control and with control comes a sense of empowerment. And we all want to be empowered. By mastering the exquisite art of moaning you will discover the perfect antidote to gloom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What kind of life would you live if you didn’t allow your fears to hold you back? The Courage Habit offers a powerful program to help you conquer your inner critic, work toward your highest aspirations, and build a courageous community. Are your fears preventing you from living the life you truly want? Do you ever wish that you had a better job, lived in a different city, or had more authentic and nurturing relationships? Many people believe that they would do more, accomplish more, and feel more fulfilled if only they could rid themselves of that fearful inner voice that constantly whispers, “you can’t do it.” In The Courage Habit, certified life coach Kate Swoboda offers a unique program based in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help you act courageously in spite of fear. By identifying your fear triggers, releasing yourself from your past experiences, and acting on what you truly value, you can make courage a daily habit. Using a practical four-part program, you’ll learn to understand the emotions that arise when fears are triggered, and to pause and evaluate your emotional state before you act. You’ll discover how to listen without attachment to the self-defeating messages of your inner critic, understand the critic’s function, and implement respectful boundaries so that your inner voice no longer controls your behavior. You’ll reframe self-limiting life narratives that can—without conscious awareness—dictate your day-to-day decisions. And finally, you’ll nurture more authentic connections with family, friends, and community in order to find support and reinforce the life changes you’re making. If you feel like something is holding you back from landing your dream job, moving to a new city, having a satisfying love relationship, or simply taking advantage of all life has to offer—and if you have a sneaking suspicion that that something is you—then this one-of-a-kind guide will show you how to finally break free from self-doubt and start living your best life.

Book excerpt: “A hilarious, sad . . . all too true novel about the rough underside of a college love affair.”—John Knowles, author of A Separate Peace When eighteen-year-old Jerry Payne first meets Pookie Adams at the Friarsburg, Oklahoma, bus depot, he is hardly aware that this moment marks the beginning of the most memorable love affair of his life. Overwhelmed (and yet secretly enchanted) by her zany, rambling monologue, Jerry is relieved to leave her in St. Louis as he continues to New York. Thinking he’s seen the last of her, he heads off to college, only to be pursued by seventeen lengthy letters, and before he knows it he’s involved with a seemingly crazy, startlingly honest girl who adores him. During the next two years, Pookie helps Jerry leave behind the fun-seeking, beer-blasted fraternity man he has become, as she teaches him to open his heart to her. Then, almost as suddenly as she appeared in his life, she disappears from it, leaving in her wake an eternal trail of love and wonder.

Download or read book Asylum written by The Project and published by The Addicted Project. This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asylum, Volume One, is for the newcomer to recovery and the family members of the newcomer. We, at The Addicted Project, have attempted to describe our experience, strength, and hope in a non-conventional way yet with a very real voice. With profanity permitted and authenticity embraced, we take you through personal experiences expressed through the writing and poetry of those who are often considered the "low-bottom alcoholics and addicts."There are no "drug of choice" boundaries in this issue or, for that matter, in any issue of Asylum. There are no topics or stories that are taboo; pulling toilet-water into a syringe at a Greyhound station, drinking to a BAC level of .512 while on Antabuse, and observing an adolescent overdose on heroin are just a few of the scenarios we "ordinary" addicts experience. Our stories are not those seen on Dr. Phil. We are not the celebrities able to achieve the sobriety goal televised for the masses. We are individuals. We are ordinary. We are the truth of addiction. And there is nothing typical about recovery as the flashy, glamorous, Hollywood productions might lead you to believe.Asylum documents and produces the truth about addiction-its effects on alcoholics, addicts, and their family members. We have set aside our philosophical and political differences to embrace the concept of recovery in its rawest, most unfiltered form. The message of recovery can be found even in these messy, dark, and complicated stories; the reader will find love, respect, hope, and ultimate freedom in their purest forms. Asylum pushes the boundaries to have the voices of addicts, alcoholics and their families heard with the goal of making an impact that will not be forgotten.
Download or read book Scab Vendor written by Jonathan Shaw and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jonathan Shaw’s Scab Vendor: Confessions of a Tattoo Artist is a surreal, multi-generational roller coaster ride through the underbelly of modern culture, charting the course of a life measured by extremes, and all the people, places, and events that shaped that life into a survivor’s tale of epic proportions. In its pages, Shaw takes the reader deep, not only into the recesses of his extraordinary mind and adventures, but also into the strange and magical process of memoir-writing itself. If truth is indeed stranger than fiction, then, as Shaw’s friend and literary mentor Charles Bukowski once told him, much of this book would have to be lived before it could be written. In that sense, Scab Vendor: Confessions of a Tattoo Artist is much more than a fascinating chronicle of a popular outlaw artist's creative evolution. It is a multicolored, cinematic, modern-day Odyssey, written in blood, ink, and tears—a kaleidoscopic, visionary roadmap to the journey of the human soul.
