  The 7 Wonders of Me: A Journey from Trauma to Healing 
  At age 13, Darnell Davis stood in a courtroom as the key witness in a murder trial that sent his father to prison for life—a moment that shattered his childhood and marked the beginning of a long battle with pain, anger, and self-doubt. The Seven Wonders of Me is Darnell’s deeply personal memoir of navigating the darkness, confronting his deepest wounds, and finding healing against all odds. 
  This book offers readers more than just a story of survival; it is a roadmap to inner peace and personal growth. Using the seven chakras as a guiding framework, Darnell leads readers through each stage of his journey, from the root chakra’s call to rediscover safety and stability, to the crown chakra’s invitation to connect with a higher purpose. Each chapter is filled with raw reflections, spiritual insights, and practical tools that Darnell used to reclaim his life and embrace his own light. 
  In The 7 Wonders of Me, readers will find not only a story of triumph over trauma but also actionable steps for their own healing journey. Whether you are facing your own darkness or simply seeking a deeper connection with yourself, this book serves as a powerful reminder that the path to healing starts from within. 
  Perfect for fans of self-help, memoirs, and spiritual growth, The 7 Wonders of Me is a testament to resilience, forgiveness, and the transformative power of self-love

  Descartes meditations

  Rene Descartes is often described as the first modern philosopher, but much of the content of his Meditations on First Philosophy can be found in the medieval period that had already existed for more than a thousand years. Does God exist? If so, what is his nature? Is the human soul immortal? How does it differ from the body? What role do sense experience and pure reason play in knowing?
   
  Descartes stands out from his predecessors because of the method he developed to treat these and other fundamental questions. Drawing on his study of mathematics, he searches for a way to establish absolutely certain conclusions based on indubitable premises. His importance in modern philosophy lies in the challenge he offers to every subsequent thinker in philosophy and science.

  It's not just what you say, but how you say it.
  Good communicators know this, but it's often easier said than done. Teachers, leaders, and speakers are often left bewildered, wondering why the content that was so carefully planned and delivered seems to fall flat with the audience. The art of communication requires more than the transfer of information; it both connects with and engages the hearer. To communicate well, speakers must understand both their audience and themselves.
  Speaking by the Numbers offers a strategy that combines communication principles with Enneagram wisdom to help leaders, pastors, and teachers understand how to convey content in ways that both inspire and connect with their audiences. Using the Enneagram wisdom of triads and stances, communicators can learn insight into the ways that various Enneagram numbers receive and process information. Sean Palmer draws from his extensive experience as a public speaker to develop communication strategies that lead to connection, transformation, and mobilization of audiences. Providing real examples of speeches and messages he has given, Palmer shows how he uses the Enneagram to craft a message that connects with his audience.
  A healthy marriage of Enneagram wisdom and communication skill can help us speak with clarity into the heart of where people live, love, and experience life.

  End of the Julio-Claudian...

  Throughout the annals of history, there have been few figures as reviled as Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus, better known as Nero Claudius Caesar Drusus Germanicus, or more simply, Nero. Even today, he remains one of the Roman Empire’s most famous – or notorious – figures, a villain whose impact on popular culture is so vast that his name crops up consistently to this day in literature, film, TV and mediums as unlikely as video games and anime. 
  Nero ranks among the very worst of the Caesars, alongside the likes of mad Caligula, slothful Commodus, and paranoid Domitian, a figure so hated that, in many ancient Christian traditions, he is literally, without hyperbole, considered the Antichrist; according to a notable Biblical scholar, the coming of the Beast and the number 666 in the Book of Revelation are references to Nero. He was the man who, famously, “fiddled while Rome burned”, an inveterate lecher, a murderous tyrant who showed little compunction in murdering his mother and who liked to use Christian martyrs as a source of illumination at night – by burning them alive. His economic policies, according to many historians, virtually bankrupted Rome.  
  Having left no heir, Nero’s death plunged the empire into confusion and chaos, bringing to an end the Julio-Claudian lineage while at the same time offering no clear rule of succession. This presented the opportunity for influential individuals in the empire, and in particular provincial governors who also commanded large military garrisons, to express and further their own ambitions to power. The result was a period of instability and civil war as several pretenders to the throne, among them the emperors Galba, Otho and Vitellius, gained and lost power, until finally the emperor Vespasian seized and retained the imperial principate. Vespasian subsequently imposed order and discipline on a chaotic empire and went on to establish the Flavian Dynasty.
