  [How to Be Happy] is a transformative meditation on the subtle art of contentment, weaving together the delicate threads of human consciousness with the raw immediacy of lived experience. Through crystalline prose that captures the nuances of internal landscapes, this book navigates the spaces between breaths, the wisdom of the body, and the architecture of joy. Unlike conventional self-help narratives, it doesn't offer prescriptive solutions but rather invites readers into a deeper understanding of happiness as something that exists in relation to everything we feel. Drawing on themes of embodied awareness and the quiet revolution of self-discovery, the book illuminates how happiness lives in the overlooked moments - in the warmth of sunlight on skin, in the rhythm of breathing, in the spaces we often rush past in our hurry to arrive somewhere else.

  Tenth Army Commander - The World...

  Finalist, 2024 Army Historical Foundation Distinguished Writing Awards"...an outstanding volume, which is extremely beneficial for two key reasons. First, it adds significantly to one’s understanding of the Battle of Okinawa and to the operations of the Alaska Defense Command. Second, it provides readers with an opportunity to become acquainted or to greatly improve their understanding of Buckner." — Military Review
  
  Simon Bolivar Buckner Jr. was a major figure of the Pacific War, both for his command in Alaska and in his key role heading Tenth Army during the Battle of Okinawa in the spring of 1945. Buckner was the senior U.S. officer killed by enemy fire in World War II when Japanese artillery cut him down on June 18, 1945, one month shy of his 59th birthday. The shelling ended a remarkable life – son of a Confederate Lieutenant General and governor of Kentucky, the “Child of the Democracy” in the 1896 Presidential election campaign, educated at West Point, myriad service as a student and instructor at various Army posts and schools from 1917 to 1936, command in Alaska from 1940 to 1944, and ultimately of Tenth Army from 1944 to his death.
  
  General Buckner kept a diary covering the period from January 1, 1944 to June 17, 1945, which has never been fully published until now. Buckner made notes every day, often in great detail; his chief of staff thought Buckner wanted to write a memoir after the war, but the papers were scattered after his death. In addition to the Okinawa material, Buckner’s diaries discuss his departure from Alaska and service in Hawaii as Tenth Army commander. Topics include his daily life in wartime Hawaii, troop training, comments on war events, gossip, notes on his travels to Guam and the Philippines, and his role in the Smith vs Smith controversy after the Battle of Saipan. The diary text is augmented by letters from General Buckner to his wife Adele during March to June 1945, and a letter from the Tenth Army Chief of Staff to Adele detailing Buckner's death.
  
  Tenth Army Commander is an important account from a too-long-silent voice among Pacific War leaders.

  Mind Over Magick - Making Magick...

  How do we know if magick is real? Wherever you find people, there are stories about magick. Some are myth or folklore, others are tales meant to thrill and intrigue us, and others still are accounts of actual magick, real spirits, and the energetic properties of our natural world. The question is whether or not any of it is true. Mind Over Magick by Tracy Nicholas tackles this complicated—and often personal—inquiry by picking apart what we know, what we don’t know, and what we can’t possibly know, leaving us with an evidence-based case for the existence of magick in our world. She demonstrates many instances:How the placebo effect shows us that we can heal our bodies with no mechanical interventionHow all living beings as well as the earth, stars, and planets have electromagnetic fields that interact on a regular basis and affect one anotherHow multiple animals and insects, such as the platypus or bees, can detect the energy around themThrough a mix of philosophy, science, and common sense, Mind Over Magick examines what we can infer about magick from what we already know to be true. Nicholas identifies the psychological need to believe in a magick that supernaturally fixes all of our problems without discounting the reality that magick is accessible to us all.
