Download or read book OUT OF BODY INTO MIND written by Milo Weston and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2023-11-20 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mind can be a dangerous place. Milo Weston often refers to it as “ground zero.” Out of Body into Mind: An Ultra-Reflective Memoir invites readers to delve into harrowing and destructive divorce-oriented scenes the author himself has experienced during his formative years, as well as neurotic and obsessive-compulsive psychological, spiritual, physiological, and sociological-trickling plagues in hopes of achieving cerebral freeness and mind-actualization through intense and cathartic self-reflection. Being a transformative mental case study, not a single chapter of this memoir offers surface-level content. By way of four chronological mental phases and three wisdom-bundled “Mind Relics” series inspired by Proverbs and Meditations, lessons and some of the deepest levels of current youth’s human experience are explored while being provided grounded, relevant perspectives for everyday use and personal growth in a wide spectrum of connectable areas. It’s nearly impossible to reflect alongside these testaments without adding a new perspective to your mind’s collection, or cementing Milo’s think pieces as true mind relics. In this melancholic, yet triumphant memoir, mental health is prioritized and its utmost importance is elaborated upon in this mirrored space for those seeking thoughtful direction, transformation, clarity, and peace amid life’s burdensome positions.

How did her love of fashion and culture influence the White House? What did she think about Marilyn Monroe? Why did she ever marry Onassis? What made her take a job in publishing when she clearly didn't need one? How did she endure the loss of her babies, the pressure of the Kennedy political machine, the murder of her husband, the never ending paparazzi, and the news of her imminent death? In this powerful, poignant, and sweeping novel, Ruth Francisco tells Jackie's story in Jackie's voice and boldly plunges into the subtext of her public life, reimagining her thoughts and feelings between the lines of recorded history.
