Download or read book Navigating the Rapids and the Waves of Life written by Mavis Mazhura and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our emotions influence our responses and subsequent reactions to change or to life's experiences. For a lot of us, our formal and informal education systems did not provide the skills to navigate the changes and challenges we encounter in life. The good thing, though, is that we can still learn it along the way, at whatever stage we are in life. I experienced this kind of learning on the Nile River--rafting without prior knowledge but with willingness to learn, change the status quo, practice, become better, and be flexible enough to let adventure in. I was a mediocre paddler, and I didn't know how to swim--but I was willing to learn. It is out of that adventure that I am able to reflect on the metaphor of a river as our daily life. The key lessons I took from the river raft that I have seen as key in learning and applying emotional intelligence in our lives for overall success are: Know your course. Stay present. Don't give power to external conditions. Adapt purposely. Have some tools and options. Team with people who are creating the results that you want. Don't flow back on yourself: Get out of obstructions as soon as possible--your whole life still awaits you! Recharge. Flow on purpose and live. Celebrate the unsung hero inside you.

Download or read book A River Worth Riding written by Lynn Sager and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-21 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A humorous, compelling, and practical collection of life lessons that inspire and empower personal transformation, A River Worth Riding: Fourteen Rules for Navigating Life is a must read for anyone craving personal change, tired of crashing into disagreements, or looking for satisfaction. Not your typical self help book, it examines fourteen "rules of the river;" rules that we all have learned regarding attraction, positive focus, compensation, causality, reflection, least effort, responsibility, communication, allocating resources, influence, process, belief, entropy, and strategy--fourteen rules too often misunderstood. Author Lynn Marie Sager takes a twist to these rules and turns them on their head, demanding that we stop trying to change the river, and learn to change ourselves.
Download or read book Thinking Like a River written by Franz Krause and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kemi River is the major watercourse in the Finnish province of Lapland and the »stream of life« for the inhabitants of its banks. Franz Krause examines fishing, transport and hydropower on the Kemi River and analyses the profoundly rhythmic patterns in the river dwellers' activities and the river's dynamics. The course of the seasons and weekly and daily rhythms of discharge, temperature, work and other patterns make the river dwellers' world an ever-transforming phenomenon. The flows of life and the frictions of everyday encounters continually remake the river and its inhabitants, negotiating national strategies, economic power, people's ingenuity, and the currents of the Kemi River.
Download or read book STEP BY STEP WELLNESS BLUEPRINT written by Pramod Sharma and published by Shashwat Publication. This book was released on 2023-04-19 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: STEP -BY-STEP WELLNESS BLUEPRINT Do you occasionally find yourself dragged into the never-ending whirlpool of interrogations and become stuck constantly? Do you always hear the following sounds playing in your head? Why are we here? Why should we coexist peacefully? Why is letting go of the past baggage important? How can waiting until later decrease the power of our dreams? How does gratitude work its magic? How does nature nourish? How do relationships become toxic, and how do they get back on track? How has parenting changed in this digitally advanced era, and how can the strength and enthusiasm of young people be harnessed? Why does this only occur to me? If so, you have made the right buddy and are at the perfect place. The difficulties that arise from all areas of life and ultimately drive us into the depths of stress, anxiety, and fear—the modern-day demons—tend to be solved step-by-step in this book. We all experience stress now that we have adopted a modern lifestyle, but we are not even aware of it. A harmonious state seems far away, and any disturbance to the body and mind's equilibrium causes stress. Career, life, relationship, marriage, wealth creation, etc., if all these things fall into place, life becomes meaningful, but if there is an incongruity between our current state and the desired state, it undoubtedly gives birth to stress. This book gives readers insight into how crucial it is to manage stress lest it wreck our lives and turn us into psychologically and emotionally ill individuals. This book not only outlines some very straightforward yet effective techniques and suggests some small adjustments to daily routines that one should make in order to reduce stress and make life itself meaningful, but it also divulges the key to transformational radiance and energy. This book seeks to address the HOW and WHY of our existence, to put it briefly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning journalist Zak Podmore brings to life the magnificent terrain and complex politics of the Colorado River, its dying reservoirs—and the surprising revelation that the inevitable loss of Lake Powell could be a turning point for more a sustainable future. “A chronicle of ecological redemption.” —KEVIN FEDARKO After decades of drought, the American West is stretched to the breaking point. A changing climate and design flaws in the Glen Canyon Dam have pushed the once-massive Lake Powell reservoir to the brink of collapse—putting at risk millions of people who depend on the Colorado River for water, agriculture, and electricity. Now, as Glen Canyon reemerges, its surprising ecological rebirth reminds us that nature’s capacity to heal may well outpace our own imaginations. Environmental journalist Zak Podmore explores the complex challenges ahead and reframes the inevitable loss of Lake Powell as a turning point for a more sustainable future. Through an arresting mix of science and storytelling, Life After Dead Pool debunks the notion that the West’s water challenges are unsolvable and invites us to secure a future where the Colorado River once again runs free.

Download or read book Flying Off Everest written by Dave Costello and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-05-06 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perched impossibly on a ridge overlooking a 10,000-foot drop into Tibet, Sano Babu Sunuwar and Lakpa Tsheri Sherpa wait. Heel to toe, connected at the waist by a pair of carabineers that’s connected to nothing else, they stare down the North Face of Mount Everest, a red and white nylon tandem paragliding wing fluttering behind them. They know that jumping off the top of the world marks only the beginning of a longer, more audacious journey. And they know that the two-mile ride down Everest will be the easiest part. If the jump doesn’t kill them. In April 2011 the two unsponsored Nepalis set out on an unprecedented expedition to climb Everest, paraglide from its peak, and paddle nearly 400 miles to the ocean. Little problems wouldn’t stop them. Like the fact that Babu had no technical climbing experience. And that Lakpa had never been kayaking—or swimming. But after summiting, surviving their flight off the world’s tallest mountain, and being arrested, robbed, and nearly drowned—repeatedly—the two friends discovered their adventure had only just begun.
