    There are many challenges in the teenage years. Young people often feel pressure to achieve at school. They struggle to negotiate social intricacies. They battle to understand and deal with their own internal emotional world. 
    And, on top of all this, they ponder how they will carve out their future. 
    Teen Time is written for teenagers. Topics of interest are easily selected and the reader is encouraged to consider a range of perspectives for situations they find challenging. 
    Covering a wide range of issues presented frequently in counselling sessions by 13-17 year olds, Teen Time invites teenagers to make time for self-reflection, and to consider alternative possibilities, rather than acting on impulse. It encourages them to choose how they want to be in every area of their life. 
    Helen Middleton, a psychologist in private practice, draws on her extensive experience in working with young people as a teacher, secondary school Guidance Officer, gestalt and family therapist. She addresses the hopes and concerns commonly expressed by teenagers. This user-friendly guide is judgement-free, practical, and relatable. 
    Because it details the many issues confronting teenagers, Teen Time is also a valuable resource for parents, teachers, beginning counsellors, social workers, and youth workers. 
    About the Author  
    Helen Middleton gained a Master’s degree in Education Studies in 1993, and worked as a Guidance Officer in Queensland schools for 15 years. During this time she continued her studies and completed a post-graduate training program in family therapy. She became a Registered Psychologist and completed a second Master’s degree in 2006 in Gestalt Therapy. The same year, Helen moved to Hobart and worked in EAP programs and in private practice. Missing work with young people, she took on regular days at Headspace in 2009, working with 12–26 year olds.

    Savage and bloodthirsty, or civilized and peaceable? The Celts have long been a subject of enormous fascination, speculation, and misunderstanding. From the ancient Romans to the present day, their real nature has been obscured by a tangled web of preconceived ideas and stereotypes. 
     
    Barry Cunliffe seeks to reveal this fascinating people for the first time, using an impressive range of evidence, and exploring subjects such as trade, migration, and the evolution of Celtic traditions. Along the way, he exposes the way in which society's needs have shaped our visions of the Celts, and examines such colorful characters as St Patrick, Cú Chulainn, and Boudica.

    Trust Thyself and Awaken the Divinity Within.
    
    Ralph Waldo Emerson was the "Sage of Concord" and the intellectual father of the American Renaissance. At a time of rigid social and religious tradition, he issued a radical call for individual autonomy and a direct, unmediated relationship with the universe. This comprehensive collection brings together his most influential essays, lectures, and poetry, offering a timeless blueprint for living with purpose, integrity, and intellectual freedom.
    
    This collection explores the pillars of Emerson's revolutionary thought:
    
    The Gospel of Self-Reliance: Discover the classic arguments for non-conformity, intuition, and the courage to follow one's own internal compass against the tide of public opinion.
    
    Nature as a Mirror of the Soul: Explore Emerson's profound belief that the natural world is a physical manifestation of the spiritual, serving as the ultimate teacher for those who know how to see.
    
    The Concept of the Over-Soul: Delve into the metaphysical heart of Transcendentalism—the idea of a collective, divine unity that flows through all living things.
    
    The Power of the Intellect and Art: Engage with his visions for a truly original American culture, urging scholars and creators to stop looking toward the past and begin building a new future.
    
    Emerson's prose is characterized by its "radiant" energy and aphoristic brilliance. His work served as the catalyst for a new American identity, influencing figures from Henry David Thoreau to Walt Whitman. This volume is an essential cornerstone for any library of philosophy, spirituality, and classic American thought.
