  This book contains 4 books, which are: 
  Somatic Experiencing - Trauma is a deeply impactful event that can leave lasting scars on the body and mind. While traditionally associated with physical injury or life-threatening events, trauma also encompasses psychological and emotional experiences that overwhelm the body's ability to cope. These experiences can range from major events, such as accidents, abuse, or natural disasters, to more subtle forms of chronic stress and neglect. Regardless of the cause, trauma has profound effects on the nervous system and the way individuals experience the world around them. 
  Equine-Assisted Therapy - Horses have long been admired for their strength, grace, and beauty, but their role in human healing extends far beyond these physical qualities. Over the years, research and practice have increasingly shown that horses possess a unique ability to promote emotional, psychological, and even physical well-being. Equine-Assisted Therapy (EAT) leverages this connection between humans and horses to foster healing in individuals facing a variety of challenges, from trauma and mental health struggles to physical disabilities. 
  Art Therapy - Art has been an integral part of human expression for millennia, transcending language and culture to communicate thoughts, emotions, and experiences. In the realm of therapy, art serves as a transformative tool, offering individuals a unique way to process their emotions, explore their identities, and navigate life’s challenges.  
  Music Therapy - Music has long been recognized as a universal language, transcending cultural and linguistic barriers to evoke emotions, inspire creativity, and foster connections. Its profound ability to influence the human mind and body makes it a powerful tool in the realm of healing.

  A City Within One Building -...

  In the heart of urban landscapes, the idea of a "city within one building" has evolved from a futuristic concept to a tangible reality. These monumental structures encapsulate the essence of urban life, redefining the way we live, work, and interact within confined yet dynamic environments. At their core, they embody the idea of vertical urbanism—a vision that seeks to concentrate the diversity and vibrancy of a city into a single architectural entity. 
  The origins of this vision can be traced to the pressures of urbanization and the relentless march of technological innovation. As cities expanded horizontally, they encountered spatial limitations, environmental challenges, and infrastructural strain. The solution lay not outward, but upward. Vertical urbanism emerged as a response to these challenges, combining architectural ingenuity with a commitment to sustainability. The result is a new typology of buildings that integrate residential, commercial, recreational, and even cultural spaces into a cohesive, self-contained ecosystem. 
  One of the most compelling aspects of these megastructures is their ability to transform our perception of space and connectivity. Traditional cities rely on sprawling layouts that separate different functions—housing, offices, schools, and leisure activities are often miles apart. By contrast, a city within a building integrates these elements into a seamless whole. Residents can live, work, and play without stepping outside, reducing reliance on transportation and fostering a sense of community within the structure’s walls.

  Beauty, make-up, art, power: How to Be a Renaissance Woman presents an alternative history of this period as told by the women behind the paintings, providing a window into their often overlooked or silenced lives. Can the pressures women feel to look good be traced back to the sixteenth century? 
   
   
   
  As the Renaissance visual world became populated by female nudes from the likes of Michelangelo and Titian, a vibrant literary scene of beauty tips emerged, fueling debates about cosmetics and adornment. Telling the stories of courtesans, artists, actresses, and writers rebelling against the strictures of their time, when burgeoning colonialism gave rise to increasingly sinister evaluations of bodies and skin color, this book puts beauty culture into the frame. 
   
   
   
  How to Be a Renaissance Woman will take listeners from bustling Italian market squares, the places where the poorest women and immigrant communities influenced cosmetic products and practices, to the highest echelons of Renaissance society, where beauty could be a powerful weapon in securing strategic marriages and family alliances. It will investigate how skin-whitening practices shifted with the emerging sub-Saharan African slave trade, how fads for fattening and thinning diets came and went, and how hairstyles and fashion could be a tool for dissent and rebellion—then as now.
