Summary

Break Free From Trauma's Grip and Rebuild Your Sense of Safety Through Evidence-Based Nervous System Regulation
 
Living with PTSD or complex trauma can feel like being trapped in a body that no longer feels safe. Your nervous system stays on high alert, making it difficult to relax, connect with others, or feel at peace in your own skin.
 
The Safety Connection Workbook offers a revolutionary approach to trauma healing through polyvagal theory - the science of how your nervous system responds to safety and threat. This comprehensive workbook provides practical, body-based tools that help you regulate your nervous system without having to relive traumatic memories.
 
What you'll find inside:
 
Understanding your nervous system's three key states and how trauma affects each one
 
15 chapters of step-by-step exercises to restore your window of tolerance
 
Techniques to calm hypervigilance, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm
 
Tools to reconnect with your body when dissociation or numbness takes over
 
Breathing exercises specifically designed for trauma survivors
 
Movement practices that discharge stored activation safely
 
Strategies to rebuild trust in relationships and social connections
 
Daily regulation plans you can sustain long-term
 
This trauma-informed workbook is designed for:
 
PTSD and complex trauma survivors seeking healing
 
Those who feel disconnected from their bodies after trauma
 
People struggling with chronic anxiety, hypervigilance, or emotional numbness
 
Anyone wanting body-based trauma recovery approaches
 
Individuals working with therapists who want additional self-help tools
 
Gentle, effective, and grounded in cutting-edge trauma research. Each exercise is carefully designed to build safety and regulation without overwhelming your system. You'll learn to work with your nervous system rather than against it.
 
Stop surviving and start healing. Reclaim your sense of safety today.

    New York City journalist Al Guart is known for breaking stories for the New York Post, whose editors nominated him for the Pulitzer Prize, and for producing investigative segments for CBS News. But now he's broken a 40-year silence to open up about his spiritual life and the transformational experience of Divine Visitation. Judges from the National Indie Excellence Awards and the International Book Awards declared his book, Beyond the Sphere: Encounters with the Divine, among the best books on spirituality. 
People have reported encounters with God since the beginning of recorded history. Visitations gave rise to every major religion, influencing the hearts and minds of billions of believers. These powerful events are part of the human record, but it is unclear how accurate they are or how frequently they occur. However, reports from those who claim to have encountered Divinity are fairly consistent: There's something unfathomable out there. 
Al Guart, a committed agnostic, diminished these accounts as possibly the result of overactive imaginations, mental illness, mythology or drugs - until the first of his unexpected encounters in 1980. He kept silent about his experiences, working to integrate them into daily life while trying to fathom how and why they happened. In this ground-breaking book, Al relives two Divine encounters in stark, journalistic detail. Along the way, he takes a hard look at historical accounts of Divine appearances and challenges the renderings of God left in their wake. He offers the fruits of his spiritual inquiries for consideration but encourages readers to seek their own direct contact with the Creator ... and to settle for nothing less.

    From a psychologist and stand-up comedian comes a practical, yet laugh-out-loud guide to embracing humor to reduce stress and live a happier, fuller life. 
 
 
 
Dr. Brian King got a degree in psychology before becoming a world-touring comic and the host of humor therapy seminars attended by more than ten thousand people each year. In this brilliant guide he presents hands-on techniques for managing stress by rewiring our brains to approach potentially difficult situations through a lens of positivity. To do so, Dr. King explores what stress is, where it comes from, and what it does to our bodies and brains. He delves deep into how to address everyday stress—as well as anxiety, insecurities, repression, and negativity—and gives insight into resulting ailments such as anxiety disorders, depression, hypertension, obesity, substance abuse disorders, and more. Dr. King's techniques are chemical and cost free, and embrace humor, resilience, relaxation, optimism, gratitude, and acceptance. Instead of a dry medical approach to dealing with stress, this unique volume is filled with life-changing tips and instructions presented with humor and a wealth of memorable, smile-inducing anecdotes.

    Provincial Perspectives offers a fresh look at the Roman Empire—not from the towering marble forums of Rome itself, but from the towns, markets, homes, and lives of those who lived across its vast and diverse provinces. This 3-in-1 volume explores how everyday people, local cultures, and distant regions shaped the Roman world far beyond its capital. 
The Roman Empire’s Provinces uncovers the administrative, cultural, and military roles of regions from Gaul to Egypt, Britannia to Asia Minor, showing how these far-flung lands maintained both Roman identity and local uniqueness. The Economy of Rome dives into the networks of trade, labor, agriculture, and taxation that kept the empire running—revealing the economic machinery that powered the Roman engine. Finally, Women in Ancient Rome brings forward the voices and lives of Roman women—rulers, merchants, mothers, and slaves—who navigated a world of patriarchy with surprising influence and resilience. 
Rich with insight, this collection breaks from traditional empire-focused narratives and gives readers a deeper understanding of Roman life from the ground up. Whether you're passionate about ancient history, women's studies, economics, or global empires, this trilogy offers a unique and enlightening lens into Rome’s wider world.
