Download or read book The Corpse Pose written by Erik Campbell and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Corpse Pose by Erik Campbell is a collection of poems that chronicles one man's sometimes messy, simultaneously candid and sardonic (and consequentially human) meanderings from the jungles of Papua, Indonesia to the deserts of Phoenix, Arizona, from a 15-year marriage to infidelity and divorce, from answers to errors in a quasi-narrative that is both redemptive and destructive. In poems that adroitly juxtapose contemporary Western society with historical and literary figures, the evanescent American culture with that of the East, and through scrutinizing personal relationships against the implicit backdrop of modernity, perceived "progress," and commotion. The poems in The Corpse Pose are a refreshing (and increasingly necessary) break from what Tony Hoagland calls, "the skittery poem of the moment," which so often are merely exercises in mere cleverness as a value. Instead, in language that is accessible, allusive, and forthright without being didactic or reductive, Campbell's poetry does not require that the reader don a decoder ring to apprehend it. Even in his most ostensibly self-referential poems Campbell renders his felt experience in ways that are permeable and consequential to the reader. Readers of Claudia Emerson and Stephen Dunn will find a comfort in these poems that don't shy away from "meaning," written in a voice that is trying to speak to the reader crucially"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eight simple and relaxing yoga sequences for fibromyalgia patients looking to manage their pain, alleviate their fatigue, and improve their overall well-being Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread pain in muscles, ligaments, and tendons, as well as fatigue and multiple tender points (places on the body where slight pressure causes pain). Although mainstream medicine has yet to devise a successful plan for treating fibromyalgia, yoga offers sensible strategies for managing—and sometimes overcoming—the pain. Written by a yoga teacher and suitable for both yoga novices and veterans, this book is grounded in simple movements, breathing techniques, and guided visualization and relaxation sessions. Readers learn to reduce stress and manage fibromyalgia through eight sequences: four for pain relief, one to diminish fatigue and improve sleep, and three for maintaining body awareness and general flexibility. The author’s simple, supportive language and mixture of theory, practice, and the latest scientific data offer hope for one of today's most challenging health conditions.

Download or read book Life Reimagined written by Barbara Bradley Hagerty and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-03-15 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dynamic and inspiring exploration of the new science that is redrawing the future for people in their forties, fifties, and sixties for the better—and for good. There’s no such thing as an inevitable midlife crisis, Barbara Bradley Hagerty writes in this provocative, hopeful book. It’s a myth, an illusion. New scientific research explodes the fable that midlife is a time when things start to go downhill for everybody. In fact, midlife can be a great new adventure, when you can embrace fresh possibilities, purposes, and pleasures. In Life Reimagined, Hagerty explains that midlife is about renewal: It’s the time to renegotiate your purpose, refocus your relationships, and transform the way you think about the world and yourself. Drawing from emerging information in neurology, psychology, biology, genetics, and sociology—as well as her own story of midlife transformation—Hagerty redraws the map for people in midlife and plots a new course forward in understanding our health, our relationships, even our futures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yoga’s Ancient Wisdom Can Transform Your Work Life Everyone knows that yoga helps reduce stress and increase the body’s flexibility and strength. But the physical aspects barely scratch the surface of yoga’s transformative powers. The poses are only one part of a larger philosophy offering profound insights for confronting the complexities of daily life. Yoga can help you remain centered, compassionate, positive, and sane every hour of the day—especially those between nine and five. This unprecedented guide shows how practicing the full range of yogic concepts—the traditional “Eight Limbs of Yoga”—leads to a productive, creative, and energizing work environment and features examples from professions like law enforcement, teaching, banking, filmmaking, medicine, and many more. But beyond that, this book is an invitation to use all of yoga’s teachings to cultivate the spark of the divine that dwells within each of us. “Filled with personal insights and stories that carry yoga into the world of daily decision making.... It is wonderful to see the foundations of practice brought to life in such a confident, sincere, and thoughtful way.” —Pandit Rajmani Tuganait, Chairman and spiritual head of the Himalayan Institute “Maren and Jamie show that yoga is not just about poses—the practice is about creating the stillness of mind that will allow you do the work you were meant to do. Seriously, read this book!” —Russell Simmons, cofounder of Def Jam “The [Showkeirs] bring the deepest teachings of yoga alive by showing exactly how to bring our yoga—and our best selves—into the world.” —Judith Lasater, PhD, author of Relax and Renew: Restful Yoga for Stressful Times
Download or read book History of Gone written by Lynn Schmeidler and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. HISTORY OF GONE is a collection of poems inspired by the life and unsolved disappearance of Barbara Newhall Follett, a once-famous child prodigy writer of the early 20th century. In the introduction, Schmeidler writes, "She's a woman we've never heard of destined to be the Next Great American Writer," who, by the age of 14 has published two books to glowing reviews. After a series of life-altering events (her father leaves; she and her mother set sail on an open-ended sea voyage; she falls in love), what begins as promise turns to uncertainty. "Because it's the Depression and she needs money. Because she's a woman. Because she's a writer. Because her editor father is no longer guiding her work into the hands of publishers. Because she falls in love. Because she travels, this time to Europe, this time with a man. Because she marries. Because she wants more, and also nothing more, than to be outside. Because all writing is in sand." All that is known of what happens is that one December night in 1939, after arguing with her husband, she leaves the house with a notebook and $30. She is never seen or heard from again. She is 25. "A daring conceptual feat of reanimated biography, HISTORY OF GONE arrives in its forms of oblique memorial drenched in lyric imagination: 'Everywhere you look there's a finger bone of some gone woman.' Schmeidler's rich lexicons frame intimate interior geographies--swoop and silhouette, beatitude and gingerbread, planets and wolfhounds--all the while replaying the 'stolen reel' of a forgotten life. As the lavish particulars unfold--a mouthbrooder, an anhinga, a purse dehisced--these poems invite charged questions about autonomy, creativity, and self-effacement: 'What kind of play is she in, 'finished by a death' or 'ended by a marriage'?' A cautionary tale of the erasures of domesticity, a vocational fable, an inside-out bildungsroman, this book envisions the prismatic possibilities when the self makes a 'clean sneak,' and the result is nothing short of levitation." --BK Fischer
