Book excerpt: Have you ever noticed that when you're bogged down with negative thoughts and intensely overwhelming emotions that it's difficult to enjoy your life and focus on the things that matter most to you? Everything that we take in mentally, emotionally and spiritually has a profound effect on our happiness and success. From the things that we see on television and social media, to the conversations we entertain, the pain that we've been through, the resentment that we hold on to, as well as the thoughts that run rampant in our minds throughout the course of the day. You may not realize it, but when your mind is overwrought with negative thoughts and counterproductive self-talk or you're weighed down in your spirit with toxic emotional baggage, it's difficult to feel successful and fully enjoy your life. This is why, it is extremely vital that every now and then, that you do a Master Cleanse for your heart and mind. When our hearts and minds are congested with psychological toxins and spiritual debris; it impacts our ability to enjoy the fullness of life. From self-limiting beliefs, to toxic relationships to dysfunctional mindsets rooted in childhood wounds to choosing choices that undermine your success, when your soul is saturated with self-doubt, self-defeatist thinking, resentment and depression you don't experience life to the fullest because you are not operating from your God given spirit of power, love and soundness of mind (2 Timothy 1:7). And whenever we operate from the realm of heaviness, brokenness and overwhelm, rather than our authenticity and inner power, we cannot show up for life as our best and brightest selves. This is why it's vital, to not just detox our bodies, but more importantly to detox our hearts and our minds. And this is the point of a Soul Fast. The Soul Fast Workbook, is a 40-day personal journey into the care and well-being of your soul. This workbook, will equip you with powerful tools that will empower you to renew your mind, take good care of your soul and replenish your spirit. Grounded in Bible-based principles, The Soul Fast Workbook will show you exactly how to detox from toxic mindsets, beliefs, emotions and decision-making processes that: undermine your happiness, eat away at your peace, chip away at your self-esteem and sabotage your success. The hard, cold truth about negativity is this: the more we allow our hearts and minds to become saturated with counterproductive beliefs, mindsets, attitude and emotions, be it our own self-defeatist inner dialogue or the drama and dysfunction that other people try to bring into our world; the more we become weighed down by emotional baggage that is too heavy to carry and that adversely affects how we show up for life. And believe it or not, we carry this toxic energy or spirit of heaviness wherever we go; because whatever we're carrying on the inside is eventually birthed out through our conversations, interactions and choices. But the good news is, you don't have to be weighed down with thoughts and emotions that do not serve you well. You can heal the broken places in your soul like: broken self-esteem, a broken self-concept, broken courage, broken focus, broken faith, broken goals and dreams and even a broken heart. Do you want a soul that is healthy and whole? Then let, The Soul Fast Workbook guide you through a proven process that will help you begin to build a resilient thought life and restore the broken places in your soul.

Book excerpt: You didn't find this book. This book found you. This book aims to help you gather yourself, take hold of yourself, from within yourself. This book will help you find that place in you, you used to know or never understood. Setting yourself apart so that outside influences do not negatively affect your words or actions so that your thoughts and genuine authenticity only influence you. This book is a journey for 40 days into your soul. It gives guidance and real-life experience on fasting and setting yourself apart for Self-evaluation and Personal Development. This book is for those who need something different for this next level in their lives, people who are ready to put aside all the BS and moving in the natural, organic flow in every area of your life. This book is for those who have exhausted the mundane and can't take another minute of the ordinary. I hope you find life, love, peace, joy, and self-worth in these words. This book is a challenge. I started this Fast, honestly, because I didn't know what else to do.Yes, even a Quarantine is not enough to stop BS from being a significant factor in your life in isolation, especially when we live life virtually most times. I was at a place where I was equally angry and sad for several reasons, reasons that were taking up residence in the very seat of my soul. I knew what I wanted but didn't know how to get there. I knew I wanted to be healthy, happy, and whole, mind, body, and spirit. Mediocre living or barely existing would not cut it anymore. Mindless, meaningless dating was not the answer either, but how do I get healed. I wanted real, tangible, and stable relationships in my life! I realized I was still angry and sad at how life had treated me in trying to find that "real." I hated the hand I was dealt, and I was furious at God. I wasn't a religious person anymore, but a very spiritual person, which was difficult for me at the time. Then I realized how you could love someone or expect someone to love you when you don't believe the one who created you love's you. I don't know about you, but I didn't want another failed relationship under my belt. So I was doing everything I can to make sure that the next time is my last time. Things that were not only humanly possible but calling on the powers that be for healing, strength, wisdom, knowledge, and understanding, and I got it. This description only speaks of a small portion of this book. Thank you for reading.M.

Download or read book Unleash Your Unstoppable written by Cassandra Mack and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-09-02 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UNLEASH YOUR UNSTOPPABLE is a book that offers prayers, strategies and scriptures to transform your life for accelerated growth and victorious living. This book bridges the gap between the power of prayer and the practical application of Kingdom principles to empower you to unlock your potential and seize your success. Prayer is a powerful tool, but you cannot simply pray about a goal, aspiration or a change that you desire to make in your life and then sit back and do nothing to move your life in the direction of the goal or desired change. It is only when prayer is coupled with aligned and consistent action that you can begin to drive your life in the direction of your vision and deepest desires. There are a lot of people who say they want to change their lives so they can live victoriously, but they are not willing to do the necessary work that's required to effect real change. ...Don't let this be you!!!All human progress happens because someone was willing to work towards it. Every great person in the bible who wanted to experience transformation and victory, not only prayed in faith but they also aligned their actions with their prayers. UNLEASH YOUR UNSTOPPABLE, shows you how to craft your life in such a way as to radically alter the course of your life for acceleration and manifestation. UNLEASH YOUR UNSTOPPABLE is divided into four chapters: Chapter 1.Personal Efficacy - deals with the characteristics that you must cultivate to start effecting positive change in your life.Chapter 2.Living Beyond Your Feelings - deals with managing difficult emotions so that you are not controlled or defeated by your emotions. Chapter 3.Seizing Your Success - offers principles and action steps for lifelong success and achievement Chapter 4.Becoming A Better You - offers principles and action steps for self-actualization and maximizing potential.For most of my life I have been on a mission to empower ordinary people, just like you and me to: step beyond the stereotypes, rise above adversity, pursue their purpose with tenacity and live out their definition of success so that they can live victoriously. Through my travels, book signings, social media presence, my training company, Strategies For Empowered Living Inc., and my ministry Cassandra Mack Ministries, I have discovered that people everywhere want to know how to bridge the gap between who they are now and who they have the potential and capacity to become. They are looking for timeless truths and actionable strategies to make the most of their lives. This is where UNLEASH YOUR UNSTOPPABLE comes in. UNLEASH YOUR UNSTOPPABLE, offers prayers, bible scriptures and strategies designed to give you a gentle nudge and sometimes a robust push to empower you to move your life in the direction of your vision, press pass the internal roadblocks and tap into new realms of possibility. The reality of living your most blessed life is this: Each of us must learn to give birth to our own potential by cultivating the seeds of greatness, creativity and resilience that God has placed inside of us so that we may fulfill our divine destiny. You were born into this world to make a world of difference with your ideas, gifts and talents. All you have to do is be who you are already purposed by to be. I want to help you dream again and dream bigger than you've ever imagined. Through the scriptures, prayers and principles shared in UNLEASH YOUR UNSTOPPABLE it is my goal to help you seize your vision and persevere until success happens.

Book excerpt: Major New York Times bestseller Winner of the National Academy of Sciences Best Book Award in 2012 Selected by the New York Times Book Review as one of the ten best books of 2011 A Globe and Mail Best Books of the Year 2011 Title One of The Economist's 2011 Books of the Year One of The Wall Street Journal's Best Nonfiction Books of the Year 2011 2013 Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient Kahneman's work with Amos Tversky is the subject of Michael Lewis's The Undoing Project: A Friendship That Changed Our Minds In his mega bestseller, Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman, the renowned psychologist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. The impact of overconfidence on corporate strategies, the difficulties of predicting what will make us happy in the future, the profound effect of cognitive biases on everything from playing the stock market to planning our next vacation—each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems shape our judgments and decisions. Engaging the reader in a lively conversation about how we think, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking. He offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our business and our personal lives—and how we can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble. Winner of the National Academy of Sciences Best Book Award and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and selected by The New York Times Book Review as one of the ten best books of 2011, Thinking, Fast and Slow is destined to be a classic.

Download or read book How to Change Your Mind written by Michael Pollan and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Pollan keeps you turning the pages . . . cleareyed and assured.” —New York Times A #1 New York Times Bestseller, New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018, and New York Times Notable Book A brilliant and brave investigation into the medical and scientific revolution taking place around psychedelic drugs--and the spellbinding story of his own life-changing psychedelic experiences When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third. Thus began a singular adventure into various altered states of consciousness, along with a dive deep into both the latest brain science and the thriving underground community of psychedelic therapists. Pollan sifts the historical record to separate the truth about these mysterious drugs from the myths that have surrounded them since the 1960s, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists inadvertently catalyzed a powerful backlash against what was then a promising field of research. A unique and elegant blend of science, memoir, travel writing, history, and medicine, How to Change Your Mind is a triumph of participatory journalism. By turns dazzling and edifying, it is the gripping account of a journey to an exciting and unexpected new frontier in our understanding of the mind, the self, and our place in the world. The true subject of Pollan's "mental travelogue" is not just psychedelic drugs but also the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both suffering and joy, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.
