This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The creation of Dean Mitchell's first book, The Woman Missing in the Mirror, began as a means to bridge the gap between a woman's true physical potential and her ability to actually achieve it. In a deliberate attempt to not offer "just another fitness book" filled with fancy words and concepts that only a highly educated fitness professional would be able to apply, Mitchell's intentions with the book are to provide the reader with the precise tools needed for her success while also discussing a key ingredient that he feels is overlooked in virtually every program offered today, an ingredient that has proved to set his methods apart from the rest. His "Make It Work with What You've Got" motto addresses the idea that you don't need to put your kids and spouse up for adoption or leave your career behind to take up residence at your local fitness center in order to achieve the look you desire. Nor do you need to put yourself on a diet that's so restrictive on calories that it would make Gandhi look as though he's overeating in order to see the changes in the mirror you so badly desire. You can still be a mommy, wife and social butterfly! Mitchell's approach is simple: He teaches you how to solve underlying problems rather than continually treat your symptoms. He will coach you on how to replace a few bad habits with some new alternatives, all while applying his principles to the personal challenges you're faced with. His book is filled with countless stories of the women he has worked with and the challenges they've faced along their journeys, along with how they were able to overcome them. In his first book, Mitchell also shares his own deeply personal story outlining a dark past filled with turmoil and tragedies that most people have only been subjected to through a television screen. He shares an extremely private past that up to this point not even his closest friends knew about. It is through these stories that he is able to illustrate how easy it is to apply his principles to your own life and the challenges you're faced with, regardless of how difficult they might seem. Through more than a decade of training women from all ages, backgrounds and walks of life, he has developed a set of principles found in this book that have been used by countless women to achieve levels of success they never dreamed possible. His unique methods teach you exactly how to work around the hectic schedules and high demands that women face today. Whether you're that busy mother trying to juggle the demands of raising children while maintaining a house and your marriage and you find yourself last on the to-do list. Or perhaps you're that highly ambitious woman spending every waking second and all of your energy on a career and your climb to the top of it. Or maybe you're the woman who's in the later stages of life and you want to live out the rest of your days keeping up with your grandchildren and taking advantage of every opportunity the day offers to make your final memories. Whichever woman you are, this book has within it the tools you need to take back your identity, to find that woman who's been missing in the mirror for far too long. You no longer have to feel helpless, doomed to live out your days wearing a mask that covers the deep depression you struggle with every day of your life from feeling uncomfortable in your own skin. You no longer have to carry with you the feeling of hopelessness because everyone else and their needs come far before your own. Mitchell's hopes for his book The Woman Missing in the Mirror is that it will spread his message to as many woman as possible that you don't have to choose between the woman you deserve to be and the daily responsibilities you face!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rebecca James unveils a chilling modern gothic novel of a family consumed by the shadows and secrets of its past in The Woman in the Mirror. For more than two centuries, Winterbourne Hall has stood atop a bluff overseeing the English countryside of Cornwall and the sea beyond. Enshrouded by fog and enveloped by howling winds, the imposing edifice casts a darkness over the town. In 1947, Londoner Alice Miller accepts a post as governess at Winterbourne, looking after twin children Constance and Edmund for their widower father, Captain Jonathan de Grey. Falling under the de Greys’ spell, Alice believes the family will heal her own past sorrows. But then the twins’ adoration becomes deceitful and taunting. Their father, ever distant, turns spiteful and cruel. The manor itself seems to lash out. Alice finds her surroundings subtly altered, her air slightly chilled. Something malicious resents her presence, something clouding her senses and threatening her very sanity. In present day New York, art gallery curator Rachel Wright has learned she is a descendant of the de Greys and heir to Winterbourne. Adopted as an infant, she never knew her birth parents or her lineage. At long last, Rachel will find answers to questions about her identity that have haunted her entire life. But what she finds in Cornwall is a devastating tragic legacy that has afflicted generations of de Greys. A legacy borne from greed and deceit, twisted by madness, and suffused with unrequited love and unequivocal rage. There is only one true mistress of Winterbourne. She will not tolerate any woman who dares to cross its threshold and call it home. Those who do will only find a reflection of their own wicked sins and an inherited vengeance.

Download or read book Mirror Meditation written by Tara Well and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the power of mirror meditation to help you awaken self-compassion, increase self-awareness, and gain the confidence needed to thrive. Seeing ourselves clearly isn’t always easy—especially in the age of social media. Technology has eroded our capacity for authentic self-reflection. As a result, we feel more anxious and depressed, have shorter attention spans, and have become more estranged from ourselves and each other. We’ve also become more critical of our physical appearance, and this self-criticism can damage our confidence and stand in the way of our happiness. In order to heal, we must come face to face with our true selves—not the images of ourselves that we alter and post online. If you're ready for self-reflection that has nothing to do with selfies, this book will reveal the way. Based in cutting-edge neuroscience, Mirror Meditation offers mindful practices for increasing your self-awareness, managing stress and emotions, developing self-compassion, and increasing your confidence and personal presence. Using the three principles of mindfulness meditation—attention to the present moment, open awareness, and kind intention toward oneself—you’ll realize just how much your self-criticisms are affecting you. Then you’ll have a choice—and a practice—to treat yourself with more self-acceptance. Self-awareness can help you break free from both your inner critic and the external world that stokes the fears and anxieties that we are never good enough, never have enough, and are never safe enough. The simple self-mirroring technique in this unique guide isn’t grounded in technology—just a commitment to be present with yourself.

Download or read book Mom in the Mirror written by Dena Cabrera and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2013-05-08 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mom in the Mirror: Body Image, Beauty, and Life after Pregnancy is for every woman who has ever doubted herself or her self-worth after the birth of a child. Because most women spend much of their lives attempting to change their bodies, it’s not surprising that the weight gain that comes along with pregnancy (and post-pregnancy), coupled with the challenges of parenting, only exacerbate issues with weight, body image, disordered eating, and self-esteem. Drawing on the wisdom of eating disorders expert Dr. Dena Cabrera, as well as the personal experiences of former anorexic Emily Wierenga, Mom in the Mirror is a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual response to a female generation seeking its true identity in an appearance-based world. With chapters that deal with bruises from the past, misconceptions about pregnancy, life before and after children, marriage and motherhood, spiritual and physical nourishment, relationships with friends and family, and the changing role of a mother as her children age, it is a holistic approach to the age-old questions: Who am I, and why am I here? Comprising personal stories, expert advice, reflection questions, and helpful tools, this book is an inspiring read intended for women everywhere who want to restore a positive body image and to overcome the insecurities that arise when pregnancy is over and child-rearing begins.

Download or read book The Mirror and the Palette written by Jennifer Higgie and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dazzlingly original and ambitious book on the history of female self-portraiture by one of today's most well-respected art critics. Her story weaves in and out of time and place. She's Frida Kahlo, Loïs Mailou Jones and Amrita Sher-Gil en route to Mexico City, Paris or Bombay. She's Suzanne Valadon and Gwen John, craving city lights, the sea and solitude; she's Artemisia Gentileschi striding through the streets of Naples and Paula Modersohn-Becker in Worpswede. She's haunting museums in her paint-stained dress, scrutinising how El Greco or Titian or Van Dyck or Cézanne solved the problems that she too is facing. She's railing against her corsets, her chaperones, her husband and her brothers; she's hammering on doors, dreaming in her bedroom, working day and night in her studio. Despite the immense hurdles that have been placed in her way, she sits at her easel, picks up a mirror and paints a self-portrait because, as a subject, she is always available. Until the twentieth century, art history was, in the main, written by white men who tended to write about other white men. The idea that women in the West have always made art was rarely cited as a possibility. Yet they have - and, of course, continue to do so - often against tremendous odds, from laws and religion to the pressures of family and public disapproval. In The Mirror and the Palette, Jennifer Higgie introduces us to a cross-section of women artists who embody the fact that there is more than one way to understand our planet, more than one way to live in it and more than one way to make art about it. Spanning 500 years, biography and cultural history intertwine in a narrative packed with tales of rebellion, adventure, revolution, travel and tragedy enacted by women who turned their back on convention and lived lives of great resilience, creativity and bravery.

Download or read book The Mirror in the Mirror written by Michael Ende and published by hockebooks. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Mirror in the Mirror” – in the E-Book now also with illustrations by his father Edgar Ende, to whom Michael Ende dedicated this book. It is a fantastic story labyrinth of a very special kind. For the author himself, this work was of great importance: in interviews, he liked to call it his “never-ending story for adult readers.” The reader is taken into a mysterious narrative world, full of bizarre situations and mysterious fates, surreal images and philosophical thoughts. Those who open themselves in amazement to these enigmatic visions and allow themselves to be drawn into the fantastic stories will emerge from Michael Ende’s magic labyrinth with a new perspective. The core question is: What is reflected in a mirror that is reflected in a mirror? If two readers read the same book, they are still not reading the same thing. For both people immerse themselves into the reading. The book becomes a mirror in which the reader is reflected. But in the same way, the reader is also a mirror in which the book is reflected: The mirror in the mirror refers the reader back to himself. The FAZ, one of the major newspapers in Germany, writes that Michael Ende shows with the book “how much darkness, wildness and rawness is inherent in dreams. He does not trivialize. His dreams make reference to reality because in dreams, Cicero wrote, ‘the remnants of those objects roll and tumble about in the souls which we have thought and impelled while awake’.”

Download or read book Missing in Action written by Raven Walker and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-02 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Missing in Action was written in one month, on a farm on the Little Nemaha, in the summer of 1981, from notes contemporary with 1979 New York City. The work belongs to the genre established by Joyce, present in American Literature as The Great Gatsby, The Sun Also Rises, and Catcher in the Rye, the contemporary novel written in the time of its setting using the selective stream of consciousness of a first person observer to tell the story. It is the story of frontier inversion, of a famed generation putting itself up for sale in the slaving markets of the Big Apple, of a journey into the regenerations of primitivism, of the return of the West to the spawning grounds of the East, like one joins the French Foreign Legion, to escape and forget, a stray splash from the whirlpools of the dispersion occurring within American society after the Viet Nam War Era.
