Download or read book Welcome to Your World written by Sarah Williams Goldhagen and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the nation’s chief architecture critics reveals how the environments we build profoundly shape our feelings, memories, and well-being, and argues that we must harness this knowledge to construct a world better suited to human experience Taking us on a fascinating journey through some of the world’s best and worst landscapes, buildings, and cityscapes, Sarah Williams Goldhagen draws from recent research in cognitive neuroscience and psychology to demonstrate how people’s experiences of the places they build are central to their well-being, their physical health, their communal and social lives, and even their very sense of themselves. From this foundation, Goldhagen presents a powerful case that societies must use this knowledge to rethink what and how they build: the world needs better-designed, healthier environments that address the complex range of human individual and social needs. By 2050 America’s population is projected to increase by nearly seventy million people. This will necessitate a vast amount of new construction—almost all in urban areas—that will dramatically transform our existing landscapes, infrastructure, and urban areas. Going forward, we must do everything we can to prevent the construction of exhausting, overstimulating environments and enervating, understimulating ones. Buildings, landscapes, and cities must both contain and spark associations of natural light, greenery, and other ways of being in landscapes that humans have evolved to need and expect. Fancy exteriors and dramatic forms are never enough, and may not even be necessary; authentic textures and surfaces, and careful, well-executed construction details are just as important. Erudite, wise, lucidly written, and beautifully illustrated with more than one hundred color photographs, Welcome to Your World is a vital, eye-opening guide to the spaces we inhabit, physically and mentally, and a clarion call to design for human experience.
Download or read book Welcome to the Christian Faith written by Christopher L. Webber and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A foundational volume for seekers in formation programs and a “refresher” study volume for individuals and congregational study groups. We live in a world increasingly separated from the Christian tradition and the basic understanding of the faith that previous ages might have taken for granted. The voices of faith seem increasingly strident and off-putting to many. There is a need for a calmer, basic introduction to faith that recognizes the value of doubt and the questions raised in a secular society. A systematic introduction to Christianity for newcomers needs to begin with a discussion of faith itself and then move on to a discussion of such Christian basics as God, Trinity, Church, sin, atonement, prayer, and Christian living.
Download or read book Welcome to My Mind written by Abné M. Eisenberg Ph.D. and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-02-04 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the perfect book for an intellectually bored individual. In it, the author shares a serendipitous collection of his thoughts on a wide variety of conventional and unconventional topics. Professor Eisenberg has spent the past six decades challenging his students to think outside the proverbial box. Whenever he would ask them a question, and they answered, I dont know, he would say,I know that you dont know, but what do you think? Using this Socratic Method opened their minds and encouraged them to take risks. Convinced that a good question outweighs a hundred trite answers, the author has included a section of the book in which he asks himself a question and then proceeds to answer it. His favorite question is, What one word best describes your life? His answer was, Creative. The reader should come away from this book with a deeper understanding of why he chose the title, Welcome to my mind. He enthusiastically agrees with the following quotation. Whatever we possess becomes double value when we have the opportunity of sharing it with others. Jean-Nicholas Bouilly (1763-1842)
Download or read book Welcome to My Mind written by Kristy Burt-Hance and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This up-and-coming author has a style all her own. Welcome To My Mind is a collaboration of experience, opinion, humor, fiction, and bluntness rolled into a literary treasure for like-minded people. If you are easily offended, this is probably not the book for you. However, if you can relate to a chick that is a little crazy, kind of funny, has a potty mouth, and tells it like it is entertaining, then step right up and have a peek into her mind. She has no filter but a huge imagination, and weird is a side effect of awesome. Welcome!
Download or read book Welcome to Your Child s Brain written by Sandra Aamodt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-09-20 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How children think is one of the most enduring mysteries--and difficulties--of parenthood. The marketplace is full of gadgets and tools that claim to make your child smarter, happier, or learn languages faster, all built on the premise that manufacturers know something about your child's brain that you don't. These products are easy to sell, because good information about how children's minds really work is hard to come by. In their new book, neuroscientists Sandra Aamodt and Sam Wang separate fact from fiction about the inner workings of young minds. Martialing results from new studies and classic research, Aamodt and Wang provide the most complete answers out there on this subject. It liberates readers from superstitions and speculation, such as Freud's idea that all relationships are modeled on one's mother, or that it's not safe to eat sushi while pregnant. And it will reveal new truths about everything from how to make your baby sleep, to why we love to snuggle, to how children learn, forget, play, talk, walk, and feel. Welcome to Your Child's Brain is eye-opening and necessary, soon to become a staple for parents and children alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever looked at the same sculpture or work of art as someone else, but you each see something entirely different? If the cancer and recovery experience were a pair of eyeglasses that had to be shared, the patient-survivor and caregiver would be looking through two totally different lenses. Even though struggling through that abyss together, the experiences are quite different. Written in a dual narrative style, Welcome to the Other Side! will serve as your guide if you find yourself in the midst of a struggle with illness, providing takeaways from both uniquely different perspectives. This book does not shy away from the seldom discussed topics and obstacles you will face in survivorship, which often leave you feeling lost and alone. Topics such as intimacy and sex, socializing with others again, overcoming triggers that create paralyzing fear and anxiety, regaining independence from science and medicine, survivors’ guilt, or simply the the search for normalcy, are explored. Though these issues may not seem a priority during treatment, they will rapidly move to the forefront as you seek to find your new normal. Welcome to the Other Side! is filled with straight talk and humor, emotion and grace and provides a compassionate guide to crossing the stormy sea of recovery. The authors are blunt in sharing common experiences encountered by patient-survivors and caregivers. Whether read individually or with loved ones, you will find both perspectives engaging and enlightening all in this one literary work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How you can become better at solving real-world problems by learning creative puzzle-solving skills We solve countless problems—big and small—every day. With so much practice, why do we often have trouble making simple decisions—much less arriving at optimal solutions to important questions? Are we doomed to this muddle—or is there a practical way to learn to think more effectively and creatively? In this enlightening, entertaining, and inspiring book, Edward Burger shows how we can become far better at solving real-world problems by learning creative puzzle-solving skills using simple, effective thinking techniques. Making Up Your Own Mind teaches these techniques—including how to ask good questions, fail and try again, and change your mind—and then helps you practice them with fun verbal and visual puzzles. The goal is not to quickly solve each challenge but to come up with as many different ways of thinking about it as possible. As you see the puzzles in ever-greater depth, your mind will change, helping you become a more imaginative and creative thinker in daily life. And learning how to be a better thinker pays off in incalculable ways for anyone—including students, businesspeople, professionals, athletes, artists, leaders, and lifelong learners. A book about changing your mind and creating an even better version of yourself through mental play, Making Up Your Own Mind will delight and reward anyone who wants to learn how to find better solutions to life’s innumerable puzzles. And the puzzles extend to the thought-provoking format of the book itself because one of the later short chapters is printed upside down while another is printed in mirror image, further challenging the reader to see the world through different perspectives and make new meaning.

Download or read book Abandon Racism and Welcome Our Fellow Extraterrestrials written by Juanita de Guzman Gutierrez BSED MSED and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we stop the old and ancient, self-limiting, racial thinking of one another? Just think that we are all extraterrestrials. We came from the galaxies of stars. Even the Indigo children know this truth. It is the time of disclosures. Humanity had been enslaved. It is time to regain our divinity back and our power back. We do not need to be saved and do not need to worship any gods. We are all pieces of a prime creator source. Therefore, we are all gods and goddesses. We have the power, and we will evolve. We are all immortals. If you know that you will be a rock or a Buddhist or a paraplegic and when you come back to reincarnate, you will understand one another. This book will also give you the knowledge of breaking your soul contract. Breaking your soul contract and healing your energy field is a healing modality that came from our fellow Arcturian family. According to the Arcturians, this healing strategy is the most powerful healing modality given to humans at this time. It will be discussed here in this book as well. Why do we keep on hurting one another by calling one another names? Why do we judge a person by the color of their skin? We are one human race. We came from the HU. The HU is the ancient name of God. We came from the outer interstellar space. We did not originate on this earth. Therefore, we HUmans are all extraterrestrials. And our fellow extraterrestrials are coming out in the open soon to introduce themselves. They are already here—actually, ever since our Mama Gaia or Mother Earth existed. Forget the wrong indoctrinations we learned from schools. And what I taught, as a teacher, then, was wrong too. It is because I was not awakened yet then. I began my awakening this October of the year 2017. This book attempts to solve, give solutions, or suggest ideas that will make us realize that all people on this planet earth is of one race. And that is the whole HUman race. From the HU, god race. We are all extraterrestrials! This is disclosure in the first degree. We, HUmans, need to wake up. We are not alone. The ETs or extraterrestrials, as we know it in movies, are real. And they are going to reveal themselves very soon, even maybe before or after this book is published. They all come from other stars in the intergalactic outer space, just as we do. Believe it or not. There is no need to brand someone as the brown race, black race, white race, yellow race, and so on and so forth. HUmans are not limited by their skins’ pigments, nothing to be brushed off. Just keep an open mind. Our prime creator is of 221 energy frequency, and when that huge energy blew up, it took many forms, according to Dolores Cannon. It is time to awaken to the reality that the prime creator of all made us all one. The divine father and divine mother gods had made the human beings’ race to be the same persons. We all have the same lives to live, the same air to breathe, one planet earth to live on, one body to live. We are going to even ascend to the stars where we came from. We better believe this. There is a saying that “a house divided on its own cannot stand.” How true and fitting this is for humanity. If we have to survive as a human specie who are all magnificent, we better change our consciousness or thinking. We, as wonderful human beings, all belong to the great human race. We all are extraterrestrials. This is disclosure written by a Pleiadian from a previous life existence. This book will make you realize how important it is to stop the limiting and discriminating descriptions we have described one another. We all need to learn. Reject what is bad and take what is only good. Leave the limiting and ancient profiling of one another behind, never to come back. Welcome the new consciousness in—our higher selves. We are all powerful extraterrestrials.
