Book excerpt: Tropical waters turn tumultuous in this travel memoir, as a free-spirited woman jumps headfirst into a sailing adventure with a new man and his two dogs. Join Liesbet as she faces a decision that sends her into a whirlwind of love, loss, and living in the moment. When she swaps life as she knows it for an uncertain future on a sailboat, she succumbs to seasickness and a growing desire to be alone. Guided by impulsiveness and the joys of an alternative lifestyle, she must navigate personal storms, trouble with US immigration, adverse weather conditions, and doubts about her newfound love. Does Liesbet find happiness? Will the dogs outlast the man? Or is this just another reality check on a dream to live at sea? ### Have you ever wondered how life could be if you had made different choices?

A person without boundaries, striving to be flexible, happy, and free. What you are about to read is how one such person follows her dreams, no, her intuition, and how she survives her naivety, life altering twists, and a relationship in close quarters. Plunge is a story of what happens when you go with the flow, when you have a bright idea - or thought you had one - and ride the waves of the unknown. Ready to hop aboard and delve in?

Download or read book Haunts of the Black Masseur written by Charles Sprawson and published by Pantheon. This book was released on 2012-08-29 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a masterful work of cultural history, Charles Sprawson, himself an obsessional swimmer and fluent diver, explores the meaning that different cultures have attached to water, and the search for the springs of classical antiquity. In nineteenth-century England bathing was thought to be an instrument of social and moral reform, while in Germany and America swimming came to signify escape. For the Japanese the swimmer became an expression of samurai pride and nationalism. Sprawson gives is fascinating glimpses of the great swimming heroes: Byron leaping dramatically into the surf at Shelley’s beach funeral; Rupert Brooke swimming naked with Virginia Woolf, the dark water “smelling of mint and mud”; Hart Crane swallow-diving to his death in the Bay of Mexico; Edgar Allan Poe’s lone and mysterious river-swims; Leander, Webb, Weissmuller, and a host of others. Informed by the literature of Swinburne, Goethe, Scott Fitzgerald, and Yukio Mishima; the films of Riefenstahl and Vigo; the Hollywood “swimming musicals” of the 1930s; and delving in and out of Olympic history, Haunts of the Black Masseur is an enthralling assessment of man—body submerged, self-absorbed. It is quite simply the best celebration of swimming ever written, even as it explores aspects of culture in a heretofore unimagined way.

Download or read book Take the Plunge written by Timothy Radcliffe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04-19 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Take the Plunge explores baptism, showing how it touches the deepest dramas of human life. Timothy Radcliffe holds a unique position in the modern Catholic Church. As Master of the Dominican Order in Rome for nine years, he held one of the most senior and influential appointments the Catholic Church has on offer. But he is a member of an Order of Preachers and is thus truly apostolic. The order's motto consists of one word, Veritas (Truth), and it is the vigorous pursuit of intellectual and emotional truth which is the hallmark of his writing. This new book will not disappoint his admirers. Here, Fr Radcliffe argues that Christianity will only thrive today, overcoming the challenges of secularism and religious fundamentalism, if we rediscover the beauty of baptism. It touches the deepest dramas of human life: birth, growing up, falling in love, daring to give oneself to others, searching for meaning, coping with suffering and failure, and eventually death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regular cold-water immersion can improve your physical health and emotional well-being. Whether you are an elite athlete, a bio-hacker, a health and fitness enthusiast, or someone who is trying to reboot your immune system, cold water might be the missing piece to enhance your results. However, if you live in a warm climate, what options do you have? Cold showers are a good place to start, but do not provide consistent temperatures year-round, and most people find them to be uncomfortable at best.

Commercially built cold plunges can cost several thousand - or tens of thousands - of dollars. So, what is a great solution for the average person? Convert a chest freezer into a cold plunge!

If you don't set it up correctly, you can damage or break your chest freezer, waste hundreds of dollars and countless hours of time, or worse, injure yourself. After two years of research and modifications and helping more than 1,500 people from 72 countries in a private online group, John Richter has created a guide book that helps you convert a chest freezer into a cold plunge while avoiding costly mistakes and frustration. The Ultimate Chest Freezer Cold Plunge DIY Guide helps you: - Select the best chest freezer - Design options for various budgets - Prevent rust and other damage- Choose equipment for easy use and maintenance- Keep your water clean- with or without chemicals- Be safe- Set the optimal temperature- Create a cold-water practice- Find the best training- Avoid costly mistakes- And much more Each chapter is easy to read and offers step-by-step directions.

Download or read book Mr Darcy Takes the Plunge written by J. Marie Croft and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pun-filled tale featuring Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice characters with some added or addled, missing or missish, modified or mortified, healthier, wealthier, or wiser. Impeccable comportment is mandatory in Regency England, a society governed by strict rules of conduct. Perfectionist Fitzwilliam Darcy, heir to an august ancestral estate, is the epitome of an unimpeachable gentleman, at least until... Our hero's immaculate image is somewhat tarnished when he and his traveling companions arrive, hot and sweaty, at Pemberley and decide to take a fateful plunge into a scummy pond. An embarrassing encounter on the estate's lawn leaves a long-lasting impression on Jane and Elizabeth Bennet, who are new acquaintances of Georgiana and Anna Darcy. With both families in London for the Little Season, Darcy finds himself thrown again into the path of perky Elizabeth Bennet; but a handsome army officer just might blockade further advances. This romantic comedy is a lighthearted adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, featuring a softer, sweeter, sillier side of Austen's beloved characters. Reviews: "A wonderfully unique Jane Austen re-imagining. Absolutely delightful!
