Following Jesus' Blueprint for Praying Effectual Fervent Prayers
How Compassion Works
Uncover your innate capacity for love, compassion, and wisdom with ​​mindfulness training adapted from Tibetan Buddhism and contemporary psychology. Everything we care about--our mental and physical well-being, our relationships, our spiritual life, our ability to be useful to others--depends on our ability to access love and compassion within ourselves first. This clear, step-by-step guide offers a way to cultivate this power through an evidence-based meditation method called Sustainable Compassion Training (SCT). With practices drawn from Tibetan traditions, attachment theory, and cognitive science, How Compassion Works uses a progressive series of meditations to gradually build our capacity for presence and to help us avoid empathic distress, compassion fatigue, or burnout. Organized into three categories--receptive mode, deepening mode, and inclusive mode--these practices help us cultivate unconditional care and discernment from within. With a flexible framework that allows practitioners to integrate their own religious or spiritual beliefs, this book offers practices suitable for people of all faiths or those seeking a purely secular path to mindfulness.
The Ways Our Bodies Age
The book uses stories of seniors to illustrate the changes which happen to all our bodies as we age, and discusses the physiology behind these changes. Simplifying complex physiology helps to understand what is going on in our bodies, and how we can realistically tackle aging with the best outcome possible.
No BS! The Art of Agency
Step into a life where your story is uniquely yours, yet often dictated by an invisible script. This book is your rebellion manual in a world where self-censorship and compliance with bogus regulations is the norm. It's a guide for those who dare to challenge, to live genuinely, and to resist the conformity that subtly shapes our lives. Explore methods to heighten self-awareness while navigating the maze of modern expectations. It offers a blueprint for those seeking to break free from the script, even when the rules defy logic and common sense. Sharpen your aim in a world where sometimes, the most rebellious act is to think for yourself.
Stop Letting Your Past Control You
There are a number of books that focus on dealing with past issues. The common themes seem to be forgiveness and acceptance. While these messages are a necessary part of the process, they aren't very practical. Forgiving someone is cathartic and often makes the forgiver feel better about themselves, but they can't effectively use it to overcome the underlying issues. There is also a sense of an afflicter and a victim. Readers should not have to feel like victims because they've been hurt in the past. They should be able to see hurt as normal, but something that is given far too much power. Healing is possible and moving on is possible. This book will empower the reader right from the beginning. You will see what you have been avoiding for most of your life and that by picking up this book, you have chosen to be the one in power and control. By applying the exercises in the book, you will finally take control of your life's direction. Conspicuously missing from other books are tangible skills one can walk away with. This book will have clinical exercises you can use to start improving your life immediately. There will be short-term and long-term goals that provide present as well as future benefits.
The Pretty Victory
From "rising superstar" (BET), comedic actress, and online personality Pretty Vee comes a 100-day devotional and guided journal to help you define your goals, find the strength to reach them, and unapologetically go out and get what you've been dreaming of. Pretty Vee, a multi-talented comedian, actress, and philanthropist, has crafted a captivating and unique devotional blending humor, sincerity, and relatability to help make the path to spiritual enlightenment accessible and engaging for everyone. She lives by the mantra "a delay is not a denial," meaning we all have hopes and dreams, but we may need a little help to get past the hurdles. She herself has faced the anxiety of not knowing how to move forward in her life, before her mother, who is a pastor, helped her recenter and find her purpose. Far too often, life pushes us to move from one task to the next, creating a perpetual cycle of doing, doing, doing without ever taking a moment to simply sit and relish our blessings. We get so caught up in the hustle that we forget to look around and be grateful for what we already have, and what we've already accomplished. This 100-day devotional is meant to be a guided journal to help you reach your goals and find a deeper connection with God while prioritizing your mental and emotional health. Pretty Vee includes prompts to help you reflect on your journey towards gratitude, stillness, and speaking your truth. Her many friends and mentors, including Shaquille O'Neal, Issa Rae, Lil Duval, Tiffany Haddish, Kierra Sheard, and Charlamagne Tha God also add their visions for a Pretty Victory. While Pretty Vee has one foot firmly in entertaining, she also sees part of her path as helping to give back. With The Pretty Victory, she shows that brokenness doesn't last forever. And that miracles, hope, and ultimately victories are all there for you too.
You Better Think Before You Speak
How often do we filter our words before they leave our mouths and hit the atmosphere? Chances are you have experienced the embarrassing disease called "foot in mouth." You said something without thinking, and a disaster ensued. The THINK acronym reminds us to screen our conversation appropriately. You Better Think Before You Speak is an alternative spiritual approach to communication barriers, pitfalls, and solutions. A straightforward, sometimes comical, sometimes witty compact read will challenge you to mindfully hear, listen, process, and verbalize your thoughts.
The Fix
Did you know that anyone--addicts or non-addicts--can benefit from working the Twelve Steps and find the freedom, joy, and intimacy with God that their hearts long for?We all suffer from a sense of spiritual homelessness--a feeling that we're not fully at home in the world. To cope with our painful feelings and life traumas, we search for quick "fixes" that eventually become habitual, self-destructive behaviors that ultimately create more problems than they solve.As a person in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, Ian Cron is no stranger to these destructive habits. It wasn't until he embraced the Twelve Steps that he found true freedom. He knows from personal experience that Twelve Step recovery is more than just a life-saving strategy for guiding substance users into sobriety. Everybody is addicted to something to numb the discomfort of living in a messed-up world, he says, but the good news is that if you committedly "work the steps," you will eventually have a vital spiritual awakening that will give you an entirely new and radically beautiful orientation toward the life God has for you.If you long for sustainable healing and joy amid life's messiness, The Fix invites you to: Journey step-by-step through a spiritual curriculum that has helped millions overcome trauma, pain, and brokenness for over eight decadesUnderstand how the Twelve Steps can be a transformative tool not only for people with chemical or behavioral addictions but for anyone who wants to move beyond self-help to a spiritual awakeningCatch yourself in the act of self-sabotaging behaviors and understand how each day is a new opportunity to trade in self-willed reformation for grace-powered transformation "My original subtitle for this book--Twelve Steps to Unscrewing Your Screwed-Up Life--was a little over the top," Ian comments. "But anyone who has ever fallen for a quick fix (like drugs, alcohol, porn, overeating, work, religion, people-pleasing, and more) knows firsthand how our self-prescribed treatment plans derail us. They might not be as visible as empty bottles stashed inside a desk drawer, but they are just as life-complicating and soul-crushing."With his characteristic wit and transparent self-disclosure, Ian guides us in learning how to work each of the Twelve Steps so we will finally be given a "new pair of glasses" through which we will be able to see ourselves, others, and the world in a startlingly new way--and ultimately take hold of the freedom God has been waiting to give us all along.
