This book was released on 2015-11-15 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The traditional Garden Lawn has become an indispensable part of a garden. It is a place for recreation, relaxation as well as a vantage point for a gardener to admire his work! There are many books on Lawn Care. Many are too long and technical, others are too simplistic. 'The Lazy Person's Common Sense Guide to the Business of Lawn Care' bridges that gap. It is neither for experts nor for dummies...It is for both. It is a comparatively short Lawn Guide but within its pages is everything you will need to know about caring for the most important part of your garden. It is not prescriptive but tells you what is important as well as what is optional. The traditional grass lawn has been around for many years. In fact, it has been a feature of most gardens since the invention of the lawnmower because without some sort of mechanical cutter, it would be impossible to even contemplate a sort of carpet-like, close-cropped patch of grass which seems to be the feature of over 90% of all domestic gardens. It is one of those aspects of the garden which, in spite of changes in taste and fashion, has managed to hold on against the onslaught of everything from decking to coloured paving, ponds, water features and for the other transient crazes which gardening has become prone to in the last hundred years. 'The Lazy Person's Common Sense Guide to the Business of Lawn Care' covers all aspects of lawn maintenance, including actually laying down the lawn using turf or seed, caring for it and mowing it, together with a chapter on how to treat it with the changing seasons. There is even be a chapter on how to deal with lawn pests, ranging from weeds to ants and moles! It is written in an easy and engagingly informal style which means that you unlike other gardening-related books, you will read it and remember it! You will wonder how you managed without it!

Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time of climate change and mass extinction, how we garden matters more than ever: “An outstanding and deeply passionate book.” —Marc Bekoff, author of The Emotional Lives of Animals Plenty of books tell home gardeners and professional landscape designers how to garden sustainably, what plants to use, and what resources to explore. Yet few examine why our urban wildlife gardens matter so much—not just for ourselves, but for the larger human and animal communities. Our landscapes push aside wildlife and in turn diminish our genetically programmed love for wildness. How can we get ourselves back into balance through gardens, to speak life's language and learn from other species? Benjamin Vogt addresses why we need a new garden ethic, and why we urgently need wildness in our daily lives—lives sequestered in buildings surrounded by monocultures of lawn and concrete that significantly harm our physical and mental health. He examines the psychological issues around climate change and mass extinction as a way to understand how we are short-circuiting our response to global crises, especially by not growing native plants in our gardens. Simply put, environmentalism is not political; it's social justice for all species marginalized today and for those facing extinction tomorrow. By thinking deeply and honestly about our built landscapes, we can create a compassionate activism that connects us more profoundly to nature and to one another.
