Book excerpt: On the world of Akris, the race called humans are out of control. With their populations growing to horrifying numbers and their disregard for anything save for themselves has caused the other races to become dangerous to any creature. Alliances are sparse and trust near extinct. In the west there is a disturbance in the Argoth Mountains. Here genocide rains rampant over the races of the mountain. No neutral or good race goes untouched by the evil storm that is about to roll across the world, leaving no land untouched by its wickedness. An entity named Darien Albringer leads a party in an attempt to find the lost lands of Reljae, and a way to save Akris, while the rest of the world defends themselves against an all consuming army of evil. As the war wages on, some of the gods of old join the scene as do creatures unknown to Akris. Deadly warriors of Alanon reach Relkin shores and beings worlds away are recruited as the war threatens to eliminate all life on Akris. This would be the first of many worlds which will feel the might of the evil tyrant's touch should it be victorious and loosened upon the universe.

Download or read book In God s Care written by Karen Casey and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-11-10 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: True, lasting recovery requires us to create and maintain inner peace. For many, it springs from a practice of mindfulness, for others from the rituals of religion. But not everyone finds a connection with a Higher Power in those ways. Through daily reflection and meditation, In God’s Care gifts a healing inspiration to our spirit. Steadily, we find spiritual growth. Recovery is an act of faith. An addict is promised healing and self-development through the rigors of counseling, treatment, therapy, and a Twelve Step program. With motivational guidance, addictive behaviors are abandoned, coping skills are learned, and sobriety is lasting. The cycle of addiction is broken by trusting in the process. This is the power of faith: a new way of life. Co-author Karen Casey, who wrote the bestselling recovery classic Each Day a New Beginning, harnesses this power to transform life’s struggles into a devotional outlook. These heartfelt meditations encourage the optimism needed for continuous change. It doesn’t matter what we call the goodness we wish to be and see—God or otherwise. It only matters that we hold it in our hearts and affairs as we create a new life. That is the truest definition of a Higher Power.

Download or read book Exoconsciousness written by Rebecca Hardcastle PhD and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-12-27 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exoconsciousness: Your 21st Century Mind invites readers to advance their consciousness beyond earthly pursuits, beckoning them toward an extraterrestrial identity. Where the mind travels, the body and emotions follow,the author, Rebecca Hardcastle, says. In the 1950s, space exploration prompted many people to contemplate the possibility that humans might well have extraterrestrial origins. From this launching point, Hardcastle conceived Exoconsciousness to describe the extraterrestrial origins, dimensions and abilities of human consciousness. In a short span of fifty years of space exploration, humans are now searching for answers to questions that previously they dared not contemplate, Hardcastle writes. Many questions are obvious, even urgent. Did humans originate off-planet? Are we a seeded race? Who, what and where are our legacies? With whom and how we are connected? Exoconsciousness answers these questions and many more. Hardcastle broadens the definition of consciousness, integrating personal anecdotes and testimony with contemporary brain research. She asks whether the human brain is balancing to become an extraterrestrial-like unified mind.Exoconsciousness is a heightened physical experience. It demands being fully present in the body, on a cellular, DNA and quantum level, in order to transform quickly and easily. Throughout the book, Hardcastle provides easy-to-use exercises to enhance readers exoconsciousness, as well as an extensive glossary for readers to formulate a new vocabulary. Expand your cosmic awareness with this thought-provoking new guide.

Download or read book It s Not Always Depression written by Hilary Jacobs Hendel and published by Random House. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fascinating patient stories and dynamic exercises help you connect to healing emotions, ease anxiety and depression, and discover your authentic self. Sara suffered a debilitating fear of asserting herself. Spencer experienced crippling social anxiety. Bonnie was shut down, disconnected from her feelings. These patients all came to psychotherapist Hilary Jacobs Hendel seeking treatment for depression, but in fact none of them were chemically depressed. Rather, Jacobs Hendel found that they’d all experienced traumas in their youth that caused them to put up emotional defenses that masqueraded as symptoms of depression. Jacobs Hendel led these patients and others toward lives newly capable of joy and fulfillment through an empathic and effective therapeutic approach that draws on the latest science about the healing power of our emotions. Whereas conventional therapy encourages patients to talk through past events that may trigger anxiety and depression, accelerated experiential dynamic psychotherapy (AEDP), the method practiced by Jacobs Hendel and pioneered by Diana Fosha, PhD, teaches us to identify the defenses and inhibitory emotions (shame, guilt, and anxiety) that block core emotions (anger, sadness, fear, disgust, joy, excitement, and sexual excitement). Fully experiencing core emotions allows us to enter an openhearted state where we are calm, curious, connected, compassionate, confident, courageous, and clear. In It’s Not Always Depression, Jacobs Hendel shares a unique and pragmatic tool called the Change Triangle—a guide to carry you from a place of disconnection back to your true self. In these pages, she teaches lay readers and helping professionals alike • why all emotions—even the most painful—have value. • how to identify emotions and the defenses we put up against them. • how to get to the root of anxiety—the most common mental illness of our time. • how to have compassion for the child you were and the adult you are. Jacobs Hendel provides navigational tools, body and thought exercises, candid personal anecdotes, and profound insights gleaned from her patients’ remarkable breakthroughs. She shows us how to work the Change Triangle in our everyday lives and chart a deeply personal, powerful, and hopeful course to psychological well-being and emotional engagement.

Download or read book Stay Close written by Libby Cataldi and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his early teens, Jeff Bratton started using drugs. At first, alcohol and pot, but quickly he spiraled into using cocaine, ketamine, crystal meth and eventually heroin. How could this wonderful son, loving brother, and star athlete lose himself to drugs? How could his parents be so clueless? How could his mother, the long-term head of a private school, be so blind? "Stagli vicino", an Italian recovering addict told the author. "Stay close—never leave him, even when he is most unlovable." This is not a book about saving a child. It is a book about what it means to stay close to a loved one gripped by addiction. It is about one son who came home and one mother who never gave up hope. Stay Close is one mother's tough, honest, and intimate tale that chronicles her son's severe drug addiction, as it corroded all relationships from the inside out. It is a story of deep trauma and deep despair, but also of deep hope—and healing. Here is Libby Cataldi's story about dealing with addiction without withdrawing love, learning to trust again while remaining attuned to lies, and the cautious triumph of staying clean one day at a time. He told her, "Mom, never quit believing." And she didn't.

Download or read book In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts written by Gabor Maté, MD and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2011-06-28 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “thought-provoking and powerful” study that reframes everything you’ve been taught about addiction and recovery—from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Myth of Normal (Bruce Perry, author of The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog). A world-renowned trauma expert combines real-life stories with cutting-edge research to offer a holistic approach to understanding addiction—its origins, its place in society, and the importance of self-compassion in recovery. Based on Gabor Maté’s two decades of experience as a medical doctor and his groundbreaking work with people with addiction on Vancouver’s skid row, this #1 international bestseller radically re-envisions a much misunderstood condition by taking a compassionate approach to substance abuse and addiction recovery. In the same vein as Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts traces the root causes of addiction to childhood trauma and examines the pervasiveness of addiction in society. Dr. Maté presents addiction not as a discrete phenomenon confined to an unfortunate or weak-willed few, but as a continuum that runs throughout—and perhaps underpins—our society. It is not a medical “condition” distinct from the lives it affects but rather the result of a complex interplay among personal history, emotional and neurological development, brain chemistry, and the drugs and behaviors of addiction. Simplifying a wide array of brain and addiction research findings from around the globe, the book avoids glib self-help remedies, instead promoting a thorough and compassionate self-understanding as the first key to healing and wellness. Dr. Maté argues persuasively against contemporary health, social, and criminal justice policies toward addiction and how they perpetuate the War on Drugs. The mix of personal stories—including the author’s candid discussion of his own “high-status” addictive tendencies—and science with positive solutions makes the book equally useful for lay readers and professionals.

Download or read book The Spell of Zalanon written by Johnny Flora and published by . This book was released on 2010-12-20 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As September 22, 2021 approached, the unchecked human overpopulation of Earth threatened our planet's existence, but a grim solution was in the wings. Six thousand years earlier the Egyptian sorcerer Zalanon foresaw this approaching catastrophe for humanity. Seeing no other alternative to save the planet, he cast a gruesome spell to rebalance our population with a strictly feline application of the natural law of survival of the fittest. The cats were now upon us. Packs of hungry feline predators roamed the planet viciously culling our now overgrown herd of humanity. Zalanon's spell had turned every common household cat into a crazed and monstrous predator bent on thinning out the human population before we completely depleted all the resources of our Mother Earth. The great Egyptian Cat Gods -- miniaturized by Zalanon for six millennia -- were also now unleashed by the ancient sorcerer's spell in all their menacing, primordial grandeur to help their feline contemporaries carry out this massive annihilation of mankind. Only Arim -- the first human ever to have revealed to him the secrets of the Scrolls of Zalanon -- had the potential to find some shelter from the ensuing holocaust and to bring safety to the earth's few survivors within the protective Ring of Light -- just as Zalanon had predicted. Unless...
