  The One Thing We've Never Spoken...

  An investigation into the failings of Australia’s mental healthcare system, grounded in a personal story of a mother–daughter relationship 
   
  Journalist Elfy Scott grew up in a household where her mother’s schizophrenia was rarely, if ever, spoken about. They navigated this silence outside the family home too; for many years, this complex mental health condition was treated as an open secret. 
   
  Over the past two decades, we have started talking more about common mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. But complex conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and psychosis have been left behind, as have many of the people who live with these conditions or who care for them. 
   
  Part memoir, part deep-dive investigation, The One Thing We’ve Never Spoken About is filled with rage at how our nation’s public discourse, emergency services and healthcare systems continue to fail so many people. It is also a work of care, telling the little-heard stories of people who live with these conditions and work at the front lines of mental health. Above all, this timely, compelling book is informed by hope and courage, breaking down taboos and asking big questions about vulnerability, justice and duty of care. 
   
  ‘Expansive and generous … brimming with kindness, revelatory accounts and wit. The book itself is a thing of grace.’ Rick Morton 
   
  ‘Elfy brings empathy, reason and generosity to a book Australia so desperately needs.’ Zara McDonald 
   
  ‘Absorbing and mind-opening, this is panoramic in scope, while offering a deeply intimate portrait of fierce familial love and care.’ Benjamin Law

  St Petersburg's structures lay over the skeletons of the press-ganged servant workers who worked to build it, making it the label "the city built on bones." Historians approximate that 100,000 18th-century slaves are buried underneath the city's stunning Italianate estates and large Parisian-style streets.They passed away of cold, appetite, illness, or, if they were truly unfortunate, wolves. They were drawn from all around the Russian Empire at the time. They dedicated their lives for the magnificence of Imperial Russia, and the city they built, St Petersburg, stands as a testimony to the Russian state's single-mindedness.Its extravagant palaces radiate European elegance and were actively built in a Western way to bring Russia closer to Europe.Still, more than 3 centuries later, Russia has yet to finish this journey, and St Petersburg is a witness to the trouble of the journey.Let’s take a look at what else makes Saint Petersburg such a unique place.

  Obesity is a complex health condition characterized by excessive excess body fat, which can have effects on physical and emotional health. In the contemporary world, obesity has become a global epidemic, affecting people of all ages, genders and ethnic backgrounds. Understanding obesity and its intrinsic relationship to nutrition is critical to effectively addressing this issue.Definition of Obesity and its CausesObesity is defined by the body mass index (BMI), a measure that relates an individual's weight to height. A BMI of 30 or more indicates obesity. However, obesity is not just a matter of aesthetics. It is associated with a number of serious health problems, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, sleep apnea and various forms of cancer.The causes of obesity are multifactorial and complex. They involve the interaction between genetic, environmental, behavioral and metabolic factors. The abundant availability of high-calorie foods rich in vitamins and sugars, along with a sedentary lifestyle, are the main factors that have created for the rise in obesity rates. Additionally, individual metabolic issues and hormonal imbalances can also play a role in predisposing to obesity.Importance of Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of ObesityNutrition plays a crucial role in both preventing and treating obesity. The relationship between food consumption and weight gain is direct, as excess calories consumed are stored as body fat. Therefore, taking a balanced approach to diet is essential.A balanced diet consists of providing the body with the nutrients it needs for proper function, while controlling total caloric intake. This involves a proper mix of macronutrients such as carbohydrates, protein and vitamins, as well as taking in essential vitamins and minerals.When considering obesity prevention and treatment, it is important to take a long-term approach. Extremely restrictive or drastic diets can result in temporary weight loss, but they are often unsustainable and can lead to the accordion effect. Instead, the focus should be on promoting healthy and sustainable lifestyle changes, including conscious food choices and regular physical activity.In summary, obesity is a global challenge that affects the health and well-being of many people. Nutrition plays a key role in the prevention and treatment of obesity, and a balanced, long-term approach is needed to achieve lasting results. Throughout this ebook, we will explore in detail how nutrition can be a powerful ally in the journey to combat obesity and the search for a healthier lifestyle.

  "Blood in the Water is a twisty true crime narrative of greed, suspicion, and revenge, taking us from the high seas to the mansion of an enormously wealthy family. Compelling and cinematic, it keeps you guessing about the complicated family at the heart of this saga until the very last page."—Shawn Cohen, New York Times bestselling author of College Girl, Missing 
    
  Troubled waters hide deadly secrets …

  Germanic mythology is a rich tapestry of myths, legends, and folklore that reflects the beliefs and values of ancient Germanic peoples. Encompassing a variety of tribes, including the Goths, Vandals, Saxons, and Norse, this mythology served as a crucial part of cultural identity and social cohesion. It provided a shared narrative framework that connected communities, reinforcing a sense of belonging among individuals. 
  The importance of mythology in Germanic culture lies not only in its role in explaining natural phenomena and human experiences but also in its function as a moral and ethical framework that guided the behavior of individuals and communities. Myths served to articulate values such as honor, bravery, and loyalty, which were central to the warrior ethos of many Germanic societies. Through heroic tales, individuals were taught the significance of courage in the face of adversity and the importance of kinship and loyalty to one’s tribe.
