Download or read book The Guided Heart written by Victoria L. Volk and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-04 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When we discover within ourselves that we are stronger because of struggle, we take power away from the pain itself and the hold it has over us." - Victoria Volk, excerpt from The Guided Heart: Moving Through Grief and Finding Spiritual Solace Every one of us experiences grief at some point in life. There's a tendency to think of grief as losing a loved one; however, one can also experience grief after closing various chapters--such as a relationship or a business. Volk explains how her experience with grief due to the loss of her father during childhood was both the source of years of heartache and pain but also the birthplace of strength, spirituality, and empathy. The Guided Heart is not written from the perspective of someone with a doctorate degree, but from the heart of someone who's found a way to discover the other side of grief in adulthood. It's a coming-of-age story of an eight-year-old girl who, in her thirties, found the courage to lean into the pain of her past. In a world where it's commonplace to numb ourselves with self-sabotaging behavior, diving deep into our own misery is an unthinkable and unimaginable task. We know by doing so, we may be called to change--and change is uncomfortable and also takes courage. Courage, which by definition means strength in the face of pain or grief. Join Victoria on her journey from childhood grief into adulthood, and you, too, may find the strength to face your own pain or grief.

Download or read book God s Hotel written by Victoria Sweet and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-04-02 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victoria Sweet's new book, SLOW MEDICINE, is on sale now! For readers of Paul Kalanithi’s When Breath Becomes Air, a medical “page-turner” that traces one doctor’s “remarkable journey to the essence of medicine” (The San Francisco Chronicle). San Francisco’s Laguna Honda Hospital is the last almshouse in the country, a descendant of the Hôtel-Dieu (God’s hotel) that cared for the sick in the Middle Ages. Ballet dancers and rock musicians, professors and thieves—“anyone who had fallen, or, often, leapt, onto hard times” and needed extended medical care—ended up here. So did Victoria Sweet, who came for two months and stayed for twenty years. Laguna Honda, relatively low-tech but human-paced, gave Sweet the opportunity to practice a kind of attentive medicine that has almost vanished. Gradually, the place transformed the way she understood her work. Alongside the modern view of the body as a machine to be fixed, her extraordinary patients evoked an older idea, of the body as a garden to be tended. God’s Hotel tells their story and the story of the hospital itself, which, as efficiency experts, politicians, and architects descended, determined to turn it into a modern “health care facility,” revealed its own surprising truths about the essence, cost, and value of caring for the body and the soul.

Download or read book At the Heart of the Empire written by Antoinette Burton and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antoinette Burton focuses on the experiences of three Victorian travelers in Britain to illustrate how "Englishness" was made and remade in relation to imperialism. The accounts left by these three sojourners—all prominent, educated Indians—represent complex, critical ethnographies of "native" metropolitan society and offer revealing glimpses of what it was like to be a colonial subject in fin-de-siècle Britain. Burton's innovative interpretation of the travelers' testimonies shatters the myth of Britain's insularity from its own construction of empire and shows that it was instead a terrain open to continual contest and refiguration. Burton's three subjects felt the influence of imperial power keenly during even the most everyday encounters in Britain. Pandita Ramabai arrived in London in 1883 seeking a medical education and left in 1886, having resisted the Anglican Church's attempts to make her an evangelical missionary. Cornelia Sorabji went to Oxford to study law and became the first Indian woman to be called to the Bar. Behramji Malabari sought help for his Indian reform projects in England, and subjected London to colonial scrutiny in the process. Their experiences form the basis of this wide-ranging, clearly written, and imaginative investigation of diasporic movement in the colonial metropolis.
