From a revered psychologist comes a groundbreaking, multilayered mind-body-spirit approach for alternate paths to empowerment and healingIf you’ve ever experienced a pivotal life event that felt as though it broke you apart and left you struggling to recover, psychologist Laurel Parnell understands. After the tragic death of her son, when expert knowledge in trauma recovery wasn’t enough to reclaim her True Self, she embarked on a journey that led to the development of a whole new approach.Multidimensional Integrative Healing (MDIH) is a powerful healing method that integrates transpersonal psychology (looking beyond ego or the sense of self to explore deep spiritual and transcendent experiences), Eastern spiritual practices, and diverse spiritual and energetic traditions of the world. Dr. Parnell also incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Attachment-Focused EMDR (AF-EMDR), her protocol variation focused on individual attachment style.MDIH recognizes there are different dimensions of reality that exist and can be accessed for healing. These include physical, emotional, psychological, somatic, and spiritual. By understanding these various dimensions, we can better align with our inner knowing and innate healing intelligence. Come back to the version of who you know yourself to truly be. MDIH can guide you to access resources that can be called on for help when needed, engage your energetic sovereignty, release energies that don’t belong to you, and finally move toward wholeness.Voir livre

Our country doesn't have a partisan problem, a political problem, a social problem, or an economic problem. We have a spiritual problem. As Christianity has been pushed aside, the Progressive Left has developed a new pagan religion. But the radical roots of the new secular religion are ancient. We've seen it all before. In You Shall Be as Gods, Erick Erickson traces the religion's roots from Paganism and Gnosticism through the Age of Enlightenment all the way into the Postmodernism of the twenty-first century. At the heart of the ancient religion is a self-centered culture. The Christian church today has been weakened by compromising with the neo-pagan religion, leaving the faithful ill-prepared to counter the claims of society's present-day doctrine. Yet there remains a significant remnant in America that refuses to bow to the rising belief system. Just as in Rome and countless societies throughout history, the religions present two opposing stories of reality which necessitates conflict. In an era where the "Christian thing" to do seems to be to go along and get along, Erickson makes clear that the two cultures cannot peacefully coexist and calls the listener to speak the truth in love.Voir livre
At 36 years old, Christina had it all...two young and healthy boys, an uber successful husband, and a big house in a gated-golf course community. She was young, rich, and on top of the world. On the morning of September 11, 2000, a devastating call would up-end everything and life as she knew it. While this cataclysmic event didn't mark the beginning of end of her life, it would be the test of her character, agency and faith. This book offers insight to a life journey that is extraordinary yet profoundly human. It's the chronical of an evolution from a frail child into a woman shaped by intense love, incredible upheavals, and ultimately, deep personal wisdom. Beginning with a childhood marked by illness and solitude, books and fairytales became Christina's refuge and compass. These influences weave throughout her life and the stories, not as naive fantasies, but as emotional frameworks that conflict with the sharp edges of her reality. Life takes a dramatic turn when at 25, Christina meets Jeffrey, a Wall Street Titan, whose fast-paced existence is worlds away from her quiet, reflective nature. The connection is immediate and all-consuming. Their life becomes exhilarating, fantastical, and materially abundant. The heart of this memoir is the defining moment when an unexpected phone call changes everything. This moment acts as a fault-line in Christina's life, splitting everything into a before and after. From this point on, the story becomes less about the external events and more about the quiet but radical life-changing shifts in Christina's understanding about self, love, loss, and destiny. At it's core, this story is about transformation that only comes when we are challenged and stripped of control and what we know. It's about learning to let life present itself with patience and understanding. This book is a tapestry of life-lesson stories woven together by themes of self-discovery, unconditional love, tragedy, spirituality, family, inner-strength, and grief.Voir livre
For many fans and casual observers, professional sports and violence are deeply connected. Violence on the field has real consequences for players, notably in the form of life-altering injuries from concussions. Off the field, in the last several decades, scores of athletes have committed violent acts, from domestic abuse and sexual assault to animal abuse and murder. Beyond athletes, sport also serves as a site of political and structural violence, from the displacement and hyperpolicing of everyday people for mega-events to the "sportswashing" of environmentally harmful industries. Daniel Sailofsky examines the endemic violence in professional sports and argues that—while related to masculinity, misogyny, and individual factors like alcohol consumption and gambling—it is most intimately tied to capitalism and to capitalist modes of consumption and profit. Sailofsky explains how capitalism creates the conditions for violence to thrive and uncovers how sports leaders—coaches, league officials, and team owners—obfuscate these relationships to avoid accountability. From minor league baseball exploitation to spectator hooliganism, Sailofsky shows the connections between the business of sports and violence, but also, more importantly, he imagines new forms of sport that are not places of harm.Voir livre
Most agree on the urgent need for climate action, yet we are often divided on how to stop the destruction of the natural world. Earth for Sale exposes the danger of governments giving over this responsibility to powerful private interests, namely the same energy, chemical, agribusiness, and bottled water corporations that brought us to this ecological brink.Their answer? Put a price on nature and bring it into the market. Under the inviting language of "nature-based solutions" and "ecosystem services," this financialization and commodification of nature takes many forms: carbon trading; debt-for-nature swaps; water pollution trading; biodiversity credits; green, blue, and wildlife conservation bonds; plastics offsets; water futures; and more.Renowned activist Maude Barlow, who sounded the alarm decades ago on the corporate assault on water, argues the financialization of nature is dangerous and surprisingly few understand the implications, including many in environmental movements. With detailed examples and meticulous research, Earth for Sale unmasks this insidious new form of corporate plunder. We must not allow the movement to protect nature and biodiversity to be handed over to private interests whose driving motive is, and always has been, profit.Voir livre
