Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heartbreaking story about a Nigerian poultry farmer who sacrifices everything to win the woman he loves, by Man Booker Finalist and author of The Fishermen, Chigozie Obioma. "It is more than a superb and tragic novel; it's a historical treasure."-Boston Globe Set on the outskirts of Umuahia, Nigeria and narrated by a chi, or guardian spirit, An Orchestra of Minorities tells the story of Chinonso, a young poultry farmer whose soul is ignited when he sees a woman attempting to jump from a highway bridge. Horrified by her recklessness, Chinonso joins her on the roadside and hurls two of his prized chickens into the water below to express the severity of such a fall. The woman, Ndali, is stopped her in her tracks. Bonded by this night on the bridge, Chinonso and Ndali fall in love. But Ndali is from a wealthy family and struggles to imagine a future near a chicken coop. When her family objects to the union because he is uneducated, Chinonso sells most of his possessions to attend a college in Cyprus. But when he arrives he discovers there is no place at the school for him, and that he has been utterly duped by the young Nigerian who has made the arrangements... Penniless, homeless, and furious at a world which continues to relegate him to the sidelines, Chinonso gets further away from his dream, from Ndali and the farm he called home. Spanning continents, traversing the earth and cosmic spaces, and told by a narrator who has lived for hundreds of years, the novel is a contemporary twist of Homer's Odyssey. Written in the mythic style of the Igbo literary tradition, Chigozie Obioma weaves a heart-wrenching epic about destiny and determination.

Download or read book Through Windows of Opportunity written by Marianne Bentzen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has shown that nonspecific factors such as relationship and personality have a stronger correlation to outcome than method. The basic argument of Through Windows of Opportunity is that skilled psychotherapists do similar things while describing them differently, and that psychological healing is created in the context of relationship. This book presents the work of four therapists: Peter Levine from the USA (working with with Somatic Experiencing on trauma states); Jukka Makela from Finland (with Theraplay, working with disorganized attachment); Haldor Ovreeide from Norway (with a therapeutic conversation in a disrupted son-mother dyad); and Eia Asen from the London Marlborough Clinic (with systemic and mentalization-based family therapy working on a dependent attachment pattern). The closing chapters of the book summarize the high points of the discussions among the four therapists about nonspecific but shared aspects of their interventions, moderated by the authors.

Treasure and her mother lost everything when Treasure’s father died. Haggling for scraps in the market, Treasure meets a man who promises to change their fortunes, but his feet are hovering just a few inches above the ground. He’s a spirit, and he promises to bring Treasure’s beloved father back to life if she’ll do one terrible thing for him first. Ozoemena has an itch in the middle of her back. It’s an itch that speaks to her patrilineal destiny, an honor never before bestowed upon a girl, to defend the land and protect its people by becoming a Leopard. Her father impressed upon her what an honor this was before he vanished, but it’s one she couldn’t want less—she has enough to worry about as she tries to fit in at a new boarding school. But as the two girls reckon with their burgeoning wildness and the legacy of their missing fathers, Ozoemena’s fellow students start to vanish. Treasure’s obligations to the spirit escalate, and Ozoemena’s duty of protection as a Leopard grows. Soon the girls’ destinies and choices alike set them on a dangerous collision course. Ultimately, they must ask themselves: in a world that always says no to women, what must two young girls sacrifice to get what is theirs?

It's a journey that stretches from California through Arizona and Texas and on to Memphis. This is not just another story about a woman who loses her way and finds redemption in the end.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human beings are usually motivated towards internal growth by pain and/or pleasure. The timing or catalyst of this readiness for growth varies from individual to individual, depending on one's own characteristics, life experiences, family, religion, and cultural upbringing. In today's modern age of cultural integration, technology, information, and communication, everything is changing so fast it's difficult for individuals, families, and even entire nations to not lose our identity and sense of purpose. We're in need of fast and simple self-growth methodologies that can be used in all cultures and all levels of society. The Power Model System is a breakthrough self-growth methodology that meets this challenge. The cornerstone of The Power Model System is that you are the expert on you and that you have been all along. By using The Power Model System through personal self-discovery, anyone can be at peace with themselves and become self-empowered and balanced internally. This internal balance cannot be permanently achieved unless you work on all human levels emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical. The simple activities in Power Model System allow self-discovery to occur simultaneously in all these areas, while helping you to see what has been holding you back. You'll be spiritually connected to your Higher Power whatever the situation, and you'll have the ability to spiritually connect with others, no matter what their spiritual belief, age, sex, or culture. You'll find yourself feeling, thinking, and behaving differently. You'll feel younger with more abilities at your disposal, and you'll find your walk in life more harmonious than it has ever been. No one need convince you of this; you'll discover this on your own faster than you ever thought possible!
