SIMULATED LIVES: ARE WE ALREADY...

Ciro Irmici

Simulated Lives: Are We Already Living in a Matrix?
Have you ever felt that reality is not quite what it seems? What if everything around you—your experiences, your beliefs, your very existence—is an intricate illusion, a sophisticated simulation crafted to keep you unaware and controlled? "Simulated Lives: Are We Already Living in a Matrix?" takes you on a deep, provocative journey into the possibility that our world is nothing more than a digital construct. This groundbreaking book is not just an exploration of the Simulation Hypothesis; it is a call to awaken from the slumber of the mind and reclaim your reality.
Drawing from cutting-edge scientific theories, philosophical insights, and the latest technological advancements, this book challenges the very fabric of our existence. Are we mere code in a cosmic program run by advanced civilizations, future humans, or artificial superintelligence?

Paranoia: A Journey Into Extreme...

Daniel Freeman

'A TRULY IMPORTANT BOOK’ JOHN HUMPHRYS
'FASCINATING… SHOCKING' SPECTATOR
What is paranoia? What makes us mistrustful? How can this be overcome?
Daniel Freeman, Professor of Psychology at Oxford, has spent thirty years at the vanguard of paranoia research and treatment. This remarkable and moving book tells the story of that journey.
For decades, conventional wisdom held that paranoia was only experienced by people with severe mental health problems and little could be done to rectify its disastrous effects. Paranoia gives us a front row seat as Freeman turns the traditional view on its head.
He develops life-changing treatments for clinical paranoia – often using state-of-the-art technology like virtual reality. He reveals that suspicion is rife in society, with paranoia widespread, conspiracy theories rampant and emotion all too often trumping evidence. He discovers the causes of mistrust, including the role of genes, trauma, lack of sleep, worry, low self-confidence, cannabis use and hearing voices, and delves into the murky world of Covid-19 conspiracy theories. Lighting up the narrative throughout are the rarely heard voices of people whose lives have been almost wrecked by paranoia – and then in many cases transformed by Freeman’s groundbreaking treatments.
This is also a practical book. Freeman shows how we can measure our own levels of mistrust. He explains how we can remedy things if those levels are higher than we’d like, because although mistrust can seem engrained, things can change for the better. Ultimately, it can be overcome. Compelling and compassionate, this is a gripping tale from the front line of suspicion – an impassioned plea for the urgent rebuilding of trust between us all.
Daniel Freeman's Paranoia is a compelling mix of autobiography, neuroscience, and social science. It offers a deep understanding of paranoia, its medical implications, and the anxieties and phobias it can cause, providing self-help strategies for patients.
For fans of Viktor E. Frankl (Embracing Hope), Irvin D. Yalom (Hour of the Heart), Benji Waterhouse (You Don't Have to Be Mad to Work Here), Zindel V. Segal (The Self In Emotional Distress), and James Clear (Atomic Habits).

The Universe Within

Raphael Terra

This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
 
This is a divided and chaotic world. A world torn apart by greed and hatred. By desires that spread around the world like a disease. The stress of modern life pushes us further and further apart from each other and nature. 
 
The simple fact is that we are destroying the planet upon which we rely for sustenance. Our chaotic minds form chaotic societies. Power and wealth are in the hands of the people who should not have them. We subconsciously know that we have screwed things up and yet we proceed to screw things up a little more with each passing generation. 
 
We have forgotten the prime directive of the universe. We ignore its teachings. We fail to listen to its pleas. 
 
The truth that will save you and all of mankind is very simple. It is the Universal Law of Attraction and it is time to listen and learn from it.
