Book excerpt: You have one life. One life. That's all, at least here on Earth. Every facet of who you are and how you live your life is filtered through your internal sense of self: how worthy you believe you are, the value you place on yourself as a human being. How you feel about yourself is the lens through which you view everything in your life. Your energy, attitude, health, sexuality, resilience, ability to focus, sleep, and every relationship and interaction is impacted by how you feel in your innermost core being. You may not know what your purpose is yet, but we each have one. We all have something to contribute to the grand scheme of things. But first, you must believe in yourself, feel at peace with who you are, stop oppressing your own abilities. Learning to like who you are -- LOVE who you are -- is worth striving for, because it will change your life. Having gone through the process of uncovering, discovering, and recovering my own self-worth, I will walk you through the steps as we move through the sections of A Human Mosaic. Humans are designed to be lifelong learners when we operate at our optimum level. It is never too late to change. Live the healthiest, most fulfilling life possible by knowing that your life matters.

Download or read book Gender Mosaic written by Daphna Joel and published by Little, Brown Spark. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With profound implications for our most foundational assumptions about gender, Gender Mosaic explains why there is no such thing as a male or female brain. For generations, we've been taught that women and men differ in profound and important ways. Women are more sensitive and emotional, whereas men are more aggressive and sexual, because this or that region in the brains of women is smaller or larger than in men, or because they have more or less of this or that hormone. This story seems to provide us with a neat biological explanation for much of what we encounter in day-to-day life. But is it true? According to neuroscientist Daphna Joel, it's not. And in Gender Mosaic, she sets forth a bold and compelling argument that debunks the notion of female and male brains. Drawing on the latest scientific evidence, including the groundbreaking results of her own studies, Dr. Joel explains that every human brain is a unique mixture -- or mosaic -- of "male" and "female" features, and that these mosaics don't map neatly into two categories. With urgent practical implications for the way we understand ourselves and the world around us, Gender Mosaic is a fascinating look at the science of gender, sex and the brain, and at how freeing ourselves from the gender binary can help us all reach our full human potential.

They reveal the mingled joy and pain, hardship and triumph that were and are part of the glowing dream and fearful gamble of a new life in a new land. They offer unique understanding not only of the makeup but of the meaning of America.
