    Heaven in Disorder

    As we emerge (though perhaps only temporarily) from the pandemic, other crises move center stage: outrageous inequality, climate disaster, desperate refugees, mounting tensions of a new cold war. The abiding motif of our time is relentless chaos. 
     
     
     
    Acknowledging the possibilities for new beginnings at such moments, Mao Zedong famously proclaimed, "There is great disorder under heaven; the situation is excellent." The contemporary relevance of Mao's observation depends on whether today's catastrophes can be a catalyst for progress or have passed over into something terrible and irretrievable. Perhaps the disorder is no longer under, but in heaven itself. Characteristically rich in paradoxes and reversals that entertain as well as illuminate, Slavoj Žižek's new book treats with equal analytical depth the lessons of Rammstein and Corbyn, Morales and Orwell, Lenin and Christ. It excavates universal truths from local political sites across Palestine and Chile, France and Kurdistan, and beyond. 
     
     
     
    Heaven In Disorder looks with fervid dispassion at the fracturing of the Left, the empty promises of liberal democracy, and the tepid compromises offered by the powerful. From the ashes of these failures, Žižek asserts the need for international solidarity, economic transformation, and—above all—an urgent, "wartime" communism.

    It is important for you to know that Yoga is a way of being in the world based on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali 
    There are people who approach the practice of Yoga, because they have seen other notable changes or someone has told you that the practice of Yoga is good, well, you don’t need to be a doubtful Thomas, as this book is embedded with all important and effective approach that will influence your yoga sutra of pantajali in no time. 
    But ... what is this Yoga, which is becoming so fashionable? And what are its origins 
    Yoga is an ancestral philosophy that was born in India about 5000 years ago. Our ancestors were people who retired in search of a connection and internalization, which has little to do with the way in which Yoga is practiced today in the West. 
    And this is not bad, life evolves and with it also changes around us to meet the needs of today's society. But I think it is important to take into account the origins of this discipline, because, at least for me, it makes a lot of sense to my practice. 
    When I talk about my practice, I don't mean just the time I spend on the mat moving my body or meditating, I mean everything that accompanies me throughout the day, from when I wake up until I go to bed. 
    Therefore, I want to transfer the teachings I have received about this way of being and being in the world, because knowing, even a little, its origin, you can better understand what you do or what is achieved with the constant practice of this discipline. That was the reason why this audiobook is birthed. 
    The Yoga Sutra of Patanjali also provide the method or the means to achieve said “goal” all these approaches are mentioned with quality pictures just for your perusal and fast understanding. 
    As you can see there are no secrets, everything is achieved through practice and more practice.

    Empathy - Understanding and...

    Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another person. It is often considered a fundamental aspect of human connection, influencing how we relate to those around us. Whether it's offering a comforting word, understanding someone’s pain, or celebrating another's joy, empathy allows us to build meaningful relationships. It is more than just recognizing another person’s emotions; it involves feeling with them and, when appropriate, offering support. In a world where individuals often experience feelings of isolation or disconnection, empathy is a bridge that can bring people closer. 
    Empathy is not simply an emotional reaction; it is a skill that can be nurtured and developed. It plays a key role in many aspects of life, from personal relationships to professional environments. In fact, research has shown that individuals with a higher level of empathy are often better at problem-solving and conflict resolution. By understanding others' emotions, they are more likely to approach situations with sensitivity and tact, which leads to better outcomes in both personal and professional settings. 
    The science behind empathy is fascinating. Studies in neuroscience have revealed that when we experience empathy, certain areas of our brain light up, particularly the regions involved in emotional processing. This means that empathy is not just a learned behavior, but something deeply ingrained in our biological makeup. It involves both the emotional brain, which processes feelings, and the cognitive brain, which helps us interpret and understand those feelings. This dual process allows us to connect with others in a way that goes beyond intellectual understanding, allowing us to resonate with their experiences on a deeper, more personal level.

    One of the most creative and influential entrepreneurs of our timeBrains behind the Tesco Clubcard, the first and largest loyalty card globallyA successful pioneer in the data industry 
    We have heard of the hidden ways in which women are forgotten, unseen, overlooked, and the profound impact this has on us all. Now Edwina Dunn reveals what needs to happen in ourselves, our communities, and workplace to see lasting change. 
    A pioneer in data science research, business and female empowerment, Edwina Dunn uses her knowledge of research and data collection to present solutions, models and simple actions that impact on the lives of women and men. She has listened to women and knows the change we want to see in ourselves, in business, and in academic and government arenas. 
    Let’s talk about what a world where women are empowered looks like and it’s okay for women to embrace ambition and drive. Women represent just over half the world’s population. They are not secondary characters. What if they were empowered to realise their potential in leadership and decision-making roles? 
    Imagine a world of possibilities with equal pay progressions, rather than endless discussions. Let’s see what progress in individual fulfilment and societal change looks like. 
    This data-based guide is the manual that challenges the norm. It is the science-based exposé with insightful, inspiring, and ground-breaking evidence presenting a road map for us all. This conversation starter presents a strategy for the world we want to see and one that will make the world work better for women and men. 
    Edwina Dunn, a pioneer in feminist theory and gender studies, presents a compelling argument for social and economic equality. Her non-fiction work, When She's in the Room, is a testament to her commitment to feminism and the empowerment of women.
