Book excerpt: What happens when your 'big dreams' get fulfilled? Do you attain an enduring state of fulfilment? Are you then able to live happily ever after? Or, is there something vital missing that you need to address now? "When I pose these questions to the students at IIT, they feel uncomfortable," says Dr. Menon. "The majority are too heavily programmed," he adds. "There appears to be too much at stake in the 'rat race' of life and it takes considerable courage, even just to pause and reflect, especially when one has traveled far and got ahead in the race. There is little in their education to persuade them to think otherwise." "Is this the best our education can offer today?" asks Dr. Menon. "Are we not completely evading certain key issues in life? Are we not leaving the young generations 'magnificently unprepared, for the long littleness of life'?" Drawing inspiration from various spiritual traditions, Dr. Menon guides the reader through nine graded chapters to the full meaning of 'awareness'. He establishes that awakening and continual awareness of one's ego-self not only bring freedom from mind-made suffering, but also enhance the quality of one's work and one's life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hypersuggestibility, also known as somnambulism in the hypnosis community, is a condition resulting from developmental childhood trauma. Sheryl Hill had spent her entire life feeling less than adequate. As a young African American girl growing up in Seattle in the 1960’s, her self esteem and self image was conceived during the racism of the civil rights movement. As she grew from a child to a teenager into adulthood, Hill noticed that she would often drift off into her own dreamworld, not remembering what she had been doing for hours at a time. Either becoming hyper focused on a task, or wandering from room to room accomplishing nothing. She would often lose important documents, tickets and jewelry and have no earthly idea where she might have left them. She was not able to stay awake in movies, at concerts, or while riding in a car. Hill began to feel overwhelmed and over burdened by her own life, which often lead to excessive drinking and eating in order to cope. Over the years she developed several unusual fears and phobias. Antidepressants and antianxiety medications did not work. It was not until she began to practice hypnosis, that she began to unravel the mystery of what had been happening to her all these years. She was a somnambulist! In a perpetual, low grade and often medium-to-deep state of spontaneous hypnosis and needed to be de-hypnotised in order to regain conscious and alert awareness. This book is part autobiography, laced with current science and amusing and informative client studies, offering persons with the same affliction a ray of hope into what is happening with them. It is written for both clinicians and their clients/patients and it explains how we have come to be hypersuggestible
Download or read book Sleepwalking Through History written by Haynes Johnson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2003 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National bestseller: In this brilliantly readable book, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist chronicles the Reagan decade, when America fell from dominant world power to struggling debtor nation and when optimism turned to foreboding. In human terms and living case histories, Haynes Johnson captures the drama and tragedy of an era nurtured by greed and a morality that found virtue in not getting caught."It is morning again in America," Reagan's campaign commercials told us, and for too long we embraced that convenient lie. Indeed, the problems that came to plague us in that decade are with us even more today, as Johnson memorably demonstrates in--his afterword, "Notes on an Era," written especially for this new paperback reissue. This book will remain a signature work of political analysis for years to come.

Book excerpt: Once defined by her career and independence, stay-at-home mom Samantha Friedman realizes her life has become a routine of errands, car pools and suburban gossip. She deals with a husband who shows up for dinner but is too preoccupied for conversation, an increasingly moody daughter who won't talk at all, and wonders, Is this it? Since finding out she was adopted, seventeen-year-old Cammy Friedman has felt like an outsider. Unwilling to reach out to the parents she once adored, she shields herself behind black clothing and begins to drift into dangerous territory with questionable friends and risky behavior. Mother and daughter indulge in their own respective escapism— for Sam, clandestine coffee dates with a handsome stranger, fueled by the desire to feel something; for Cammy, a furtive search for her birth mother punctuated by sex, pills and the need to feel absolutely nothing—until a pivotal moment in an otherwise average day alters their relationships forever.
Download or read book Sleepwalking written by Meg Wolitzer and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The debut novel from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Interestings and The Female Persuasion, a story of three college students’ shared fascination with poetry and death, and how one of them must face difficult truths in order to leave her obsession behind. Published when she was only twenty-three and written while she was a student at Brown, Sleepwalking marks the beginning of Meg Wolitzer’s acclaimed career. Filled with her usual wisdom, compassion and insight, Sleepwalking tells the story of the three notorious “death girls,” so called on the Swarthmore campus because they dress in black and are each absorbed in the work and suicide of a different poet: Sylvia Plath, Anne Sexton, and Wolitzer’s creation Lucy Asher, a gifted writer who drowned herself at twenty-four. At night the death girls gather in a candlelit room to read their heroines’ work aloud. But an affair with Julian, an upperclassman, pushes sensitive , struggling Claire Danziger—she of the Lucy Asher obsession-–to consider to what degree her “death girl” identity is really who she is. As she grapples with her feelings for Julian, her own understanding of herself and her past begins to shift uncomfortably and even disturbingly. Finally, Claire takes drastic measures to confront the facts about herself that she has been avoiding for years.

In its aftermath, Amina's father Thomas rushes his family back to their new home in America. And while at first it seems that the intercontinental flight has taken them out of harm's way, his decision sets off a chain of events that will forever haunt Thomas and his wife Kamala; their intellectually furious son, Akhil and the watchful young Amina. Now, twenty years later, Amina receives a phone call from her mother. Thomas has been acting strangely and Kamala needs her daughter back. Amina returns to the New Mexico of her childhood, where her mother has always filled silences with food, only to discover that getting to the truth is not as easy as going home. Confronted with Thomas's unwillingness to talk, Kamala's Born Again convictions, and the suspicion that not everything is what it seems, Amina finds herself at the centre of a mystery so tangled that to make any headway, she has to excavate her family's painful past.

Book excerpt: “A monumental new volume. . . . Revelatory, even revolutionary. . . . Clark has done a masterful job explaining the inexplicable.” — Boston Globe One of The New York Times Book Review’s 10 Best Books of the Year • Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize (History) Historian Christopher Clark’s riveting account of the explosive beginnings of World War I.

Clark traces the paths to war in a minute-by-minute, action-packed narrative that cuts between the key decision centers in Vienna, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Paris, London, and Belgrade, and examines the decades of history that informed the events of 1914 and details the mutual misunderstandings and unintended signals that drove the crisis forward in a few short weeks.

Download or read book Edgar Huntly Or Memoirs of a Sleep walker written by Charles Brockden Brown and published by Kent State University Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often described as a "gothic novel," this is a classic American tale of mystery and murder with exciting and dramatic plot twists. Charles Brockden Brown is the most frequently studied and republished practitioner of the "early American novel," or the US novel between 1789 and roughly 1820. This volume contains a critical edition of Charles Brockden Brown's Edgar Huntly, the third of his novels to be published in 1799 and the first to deal with the American wilderness. The basis of the text is the first edition, printed and published by Hugh Maxwell in Philadelphia late in the year, but the "Fragment" printed independently in Brown's Monthly Magazine earlier in 1799 supplies some readings in Chapters 17-20. The Historical Essay, which follows the text, covers matters of composition, publication, historical background, and literary evaluation, and the Textual Essay discusses the transmission of the text, choice of copy-text, and editorial policy. A general textual statement for the entire edition appears in Volume I of the series.
Download or read book Sleepwalk written by Dan Chaon and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2022-05-24 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sleepwalk is a high speed and darkly comic road trip through a near future America with a big-hearted mercenary, from beloved and acclaimed award-winning novelist Dan Chaon. “[Chaon] does madcap well and likes his characters, even the killers—especially the killers.”—The New York Times Book Review A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice An NPR “Book of the Day” A USA Today “Must Read” Sleepwalk’s hero, Will Bear, is a man with so many aliases that he simply thinks of himself as the Barely Blur. At fifty years old, he’s been living off the grid for over half his life. He’s never had a real job, never paid taxes, never been in a committed relationship. A good-natured henchman with a complicated and lonely past and a passion for LSD microdosing, he spends his time hopscotching across state lines in his beloved camper van, running sometimes shady often dangerous errands for a powerful and ruthless operation he’s never troubled himself to learn too much about. He has lots of connections, but no true ties. His longest relationships are with an old rescue dog that has post-traumatic stress and a childhood friend as deeply entrenched in the underworld as he is, who, lately, he’s less and less sure he can trust. Out of the blue, one of Will's many burner phones heralds a call from a twenty-year-old woman claiming to be his biological daughter. She says she’s the product of one of his long-ago sperm donations; he’s half certain she’s AI. She needs his help. She’s entrenched in a widespread and nefarious plot involving Will’s employers, and for Will to continue to have any contact with her increasingly fuzzes the line between the people he is working for and the people he’s running from. With his signature blend of haunting emotional realism and fast-paced intrigue, Dan Chaon populates his fractured America with characters who ring all too true. Gazing both back to the past and forward to an inevitable-enough-seeming future, Sleepwalk examines where we’ve been and where we’re going and the connections that bind us, no matter how far we travel to dodge them or how cleverly we hide.

Book excerpt: "For Fifty Years, I Just Thought I Was Just Forgetful...Turns Out, All This Time I Was In Hypnosis!"One woman's story of how environmental hypnosis trapped her, mentally and emotionally for fifty years, and how de-hypnotising her, made all of the difference in her recovery. Sheryl Hill had spent her entire life feeling less than adequate. As a young African American girl growing up in Seattle in the 1960's, her self esteem and self image was conceived during the racism of the civil rights movement. As she grew from a child to a teenager into adulthood, Hill noticed that she would often drift off into her own dreamworld, not remembering what she had been doing for hours at a time. Either becoming hyper focused on a task, or wandering from room to room accomplishing nothing. She would often lose important documents, tickets and jewelry and have no earthly idea where she might have left them. She was not able to stay awake in movies, at concerts, or while riding in a car. Hill began to feel overwhelmed and over burdened by her own life, which often lead to excessive drinking and eating in order to cope. Over the years she developed several unusual fears and phobias. Antidepressants and antianxiety medications rarely worked.Quite by accident, Hill stumbled across the answers to her own conditions after she returned to school to study hypnosis as a means to a secondary source of income, for her retirement years. It was not until she began to practice hypnosis, that she began to unravel the mystery of what had been happening to her all these years. She was a somnambulist! In a perpetual, low grade and often medium-to-deep state of spontaneous hypnosis and needed to be de-hypnotised in order to regain conscious and alert awareness. This book is part autobiography, laced with current science and amusing and informative client studies, offering persons with the same affliction a ray of hope into what is happening with them. It is written for both clinicians and their clients/patients. We all know someone who is a somnambulist.
