Download or read book The Humane Gardener written by Nancy Lawson and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Read Feeling-Intention Therapy to Discover— • FIT Incorporates REBT & CBT to Go Beyond Both Master Your Intentions & Feelings • Master Your thoughts & Responses 17 Diagrams & 8 Tables Make It Easy • Master Your Heart & Mind New Comprehensive Therapy System • This book presents the most comprehensive model available for understanding human feelings, intentions, thoughts, and responses. • This book presents a new therapeutic system to advance the counseling profession. • However, anyone familiar with Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) or Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) will find it comparatively easy to understand because FIT subsumes and builds upon those two models. • We have made this book accessible for professional practitioners and those seeking personal improvement, self-help, and self-knowledge. Do you dare face your inner demons? • Do you intend to overcome your inner demons? Then this book is for you. • Do you dare to prioritize the intention to be awake, aware, and alive? Then this book is for you. Want to Finally Map and Understand Your Mind? • Are you consumed by a desire to fully understand the workings of your mind? Then this book is for you. • This book will help you to discover a revolutionary psychological approach for both self-help and professional help. 5 or 12 Factors Controlling Human Responses • Feeling-Intention Therapy (FIT) will teach you the twelve main factors controlling, influencing, and motivating human behavior. • However, you only need to focus on five to make your life better. • When you know and understand why you do what you do, you will also learn why other people do what they do. • When you understand why you did what you did, you can more effectively and efficiently improve what you do next time. • When you know how to change the factors controlling your behavior, you can help others change their behavior by teaching them to change the same factors. • When others see you living a centered and meaningful life, then they will want what you have. Advanced & Exhaustive Psychology • Psychology has never been so complete or as clear and precise as it is in Feeling-Intention Therapy (FIT) because the order of psychological events is fully delineated. • While being a major advance in psychological understanding and application, FIT does not claim to work on biological or sociological issues except insofar as they are secondary issues and side effects of what FIT does address. • However, FIT is more than willing to work using a team approach wherein a group of professionals work together when helping a client, each one focusing on a different issue, communicating with and assisting each other as needed. FIT provides the map. You provide the territory. • Your counseling practice provides the experience. • Your experience of receiving FIT counseling provides the evidence. • Your contribution provides the needed help for both the theory and others.

Download or read book One Grand Noise written by Jerrilyn McGregory and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2021-07-29 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many, December 26 is more than the day after Christmas. Boxing Day is one of the world’s most celebrated cultural holidays. As a legacy of British colonialism, Boxing Day is observed throughout Africa and parts of the African diaspora, but, unlike Trinidadian Carnival and Mardi Gras, fewer know of Bermuda’s Gombey dancers, Bahamian Junkanoo, Dangriga’s Jankunú and Charikanari, St. Croix’s Crucian Christmas Festival, and St. Kitts’s Sugar Mas. One Grand Noise: Boxing Day in the Anglicized Caribbean World delivers a highly detailed, thought-provoking examination of the use of spectacular vernacular to metaphorically dramatize such tropes as “one grand noise,” “foreday morning,” and from “back o’ town.” In cultural solidarity and an obvious critique of Western values and norms, revelers engage in celebratory sounds, often donning masks, cross-dressing, and dancing with abandon along thoroughfares usually deemed anathema to them. Folklorist Jerrilyn McGregory demonstrates how the cultural producers in various island locations ritualize Boxing Day as a part of their struggles over identity, class, and gender relations in accordance with time and space. Based on ethnographic study undertaken by McGregory, One Grand Noise explores Boxing Day as part of a creolization process from slavery into the twenty-first century. McGregory traces the holiday from its Egyptian origins to today and includes chapters on the Gombey dancers of Bermuda, the evolution of Junkanoo/Jankunú in The Bahamas and Belize, and J'ouvert traditions in St. Croix and St. Kitts. Through her exploration of the holiday, McGregory negotiates the ways in which Boxing Day has expanded from small communal traditions into a common history of colonialism that keeps alive a collective spirit of resistance.
