    Momentum by Charles Dye - Just because an event "has to" happen, some people think that, of course, it will happen. It ain't necessarily so! Ballard had but a few hours to solve the problem, and he knew that the answer was there, before his eyes—if he could see it in time! 
    Asteroid 1207 came spinning into the auxiliary ship's viewplate like a glittering black mirage. The eight-mile chunk of rock was the last link in a chain of nine asteroid navigational-markers still needing blinker equipment installation. Minutes later, the Minnow lay neatly berthed in the deepest hollow of the asteroid, the shining wires of its drill grapples anchoring it firmly to the jagged rock. The airlock opened and two men in spacesuits stepped out. They climbed to the top of the nearest hill dragging a platform of tools and equipment; the ragged, close horizons of the asteroid made a hostile background for them as they worked in silence. 
    Ballard leaned far over the rough edge of a circular pit, directing the heat radiation beam that melted the foundation plastic smoothly over the walls. He couldn't spare the time to turn his head and watch Walton, but he could follow the other's progress in welding the framework of the blinker tower by the irregular breathing and clanks and buzzes coming through his earphones. He listened to Walton's motions with an automatic alertness developed over six long weeks of tension—ever since the finding of the rotenite nuggets on the second of the light-marker asteroids. The rotenite represented enough wealth to make them among the richest men in the solar system. Or one of them—the richest. That was what Ballard was afraid of.

    The Mindful Body: Hakomi Approach to Emotional Well-Being and Personal Growth is a transformative guide to the profound healing potential of mindfulness-based somatic therapy. Grounded in the pioneering Hakomi Method, this book offers a compassionate and experiential path to emotional clarity, personal insight, and lasting change. 
    Through eleven insightful chapters, readers are gently introduced to the foundational concepts of core beliefs and the central principles that define Hakomi, nonviolence, mindfulness, unity, and organicity. The book then transitions into the practical application of the method, illuminating how the body holds emotional truths and how gentle, present-moment awareness can unlock deep self-understanding. 
    The Mindful Body speaks to therapists and seekers alike, covering topics ranging from working with emotional states and the inner child to embracing resistance as hidden wisdom and fostering transformative healing relationships. It also explores how mindfulness can catalyze personal transformation, meet unmet developmental needs, and support integration beyond the therapy room. 
    Accessible, insightful, and deeply human, this book is both a map and a mirror, offering a thoughtful synthesis of theory and practice for anyone interested in embodied healing, mindfulness, and personal growth. Whether you're a mental health professional or a curious explorer of the self, The Mindful Body is a wise and compassionate companion on the journey toward wholeness.
