  A moving and heroic memoir about surviving suicide and long-term mental health complications, while summoning the courage required to persist in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles and spread a message of positivity. 
   
  Lost in the depths of a devastating depression, Kevin Hines did the unthinkable and jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge. He is one of only four to ever have survived that jump with his full health and mobility intact. Hines then went on to accomplish what had formerly seemed impossible: he has dedicated his life to suicide prevention, reaching audiences well into the millions. With the help of his wife and family, he has spread his message of compassion and fighting to “be here tomorrow” on Good Morning America, the Today show, Larry King, and BuzzFeed, as well as countless other in-person speaking venues. 
   
  Going far beyond his first book, The Art of Being Broken takes full advantage of the perspective Kevin has gained since his suicide attempt. In this new story, we learn that recovery is not a straight path but a constant journey, and often the best way to help ourselves stay grounded is by helping others in need. Including raw and moving contributions from those whose lives Kevin has saved, The Art of Being Broken will be indispensable for all those who are grappling with suicidal ideation and provides key insights to their loved ones.

  In Store Bought Baby, Laura Melane unravels the complex emotions of growing up adopted, feeling different, and battling a deep sense of insecurity. Raised alongside her parents’ biological daughter in a well-meaning but dysfunctional family, Laura always felt like something was missing. As she grappled with codependency, low self-esteem, and an unhealthy desire to please others, she found herself trapped by the “good girl” conditioning too many women find themselves unable to escape.  
  With raw honesty and vulnerability, Laura chronicles her journey from questioning her worth to reclaiming her identity and becoming the hero of her own story. Along the way, she tackles the emotional void left behind by adoption, sheds the toxic beliefs that shaped her, and shares the hard-won lessons that finally led her to self-acceptance and love.  
  This memoir is a heartfelt exploration of personal growth, resilience, and the courage to break free from expectations and relationships that don’t serve us. For anyone feeling lost or trapped in someone else’s story, Store Bought Baby is an inspiring reminder that we all have the power to choose ourselves and create the life we deserve.

  Shiva to Shankara - Giving Form...

  We live in times where people have extreme views. On the one hand, there are scholars who describe Shiva's linga literally as a phallus, and see all metaphoric meaning as embarrassed apology of the uneducated. On the other hand, we have puritanical Hindus who want to strip the Shiva linga of all sexual meaning and sanitize Shiva's lore. In both cases, a symbol is being reduced to a sign. In Shiva to Shankara, Devdutt Pattanaik, India's leading mythologist, seeks to bridge the gap. As he explores the layers of meanings embedded in Shiva's linga, we discover why and how the Goddess transforms Shiva, the hermit, into Shankara, the householder.
