Louis Parkinson, Joel Robertson

'A thoughtful and compassionate guide to becoming more confident climbers and more fulfilled people.' – Shauna Coxsey 
 
'Full of insight and humanity.' – Erin McNeice 
 
Climbing pushes us to our limits – physically and mentally. Fear, self-doubt, comparison and the need for belonging shape not only the way we climb, but the way we live. 
 
In Get a Grip, climbing coach Louis Parkinson and psychotherapist Joel Robertson draw on their years of experience in coaching and therapy to explore eleven of the most common psychological challenges that climbers face. From self-worth and body image, to mindfulness, fear, relationships and the critical inner voice, they offer a thoughtful and practical guide to understanding what’s happening beneath the surface. 
 
Rather than presenting a rigid formula for success or a perfect mindset to aspire to, Get a Grip encourages curiosity, reflection and self-compassion. Using first-hand accounts, ideas, discussion and practical exercises, you are invited to explore your own emotional landscape and discover new ways of approaching both climbing and life. 
 
Whether you’re projecting your hardest route, rebuilding confidence after a setback or simply trying to enjoy climbing more fully, Get a Grip offers a path towards greater resilience, freedom, connection and joy – on and off the wall.

The Pilot and the Parrot - How...

PhD James Allan Krause

Three siblings, a pilot, university professor, and marijuana grow-operator, come together every Christmas. As always, their elderly parents present to them their thoughts in a recorded message. But this year's missive causes Frederick, Maria and Marcus to flinch, intense sentiments resurface. But before they can react, they are distracted by the sudden disappearance of the family's talkative parrot, Pock. Who has stolen him? Fingers are pointed, Gypsies are blamed. As the diversion subsides, their thoughts shift back to the recordings. The Pilot and the Parrot is a story about the power of the message, and messenger, to impact on the emotions of recipients. Marvel at Maria's theory of how mirrors come to reflect an envoy's stingers ever after. Is that why Marcus is such a loser? In this fiction-based-on-fact account, the settings shift from a traditional home overseas to the sleepy confines of the old coal mining town of Cumberland on Vancouver Island, into the competitive bustle of the lower mainland, then back to the cultural nexus of modern Europe. In each locale, the siblings face dramatic challenges. Their reactions to each are as unique as their individual character traits. In the year and some it all unfolds, their family life is marked by crime, scandals, romance, and a death-defying drama, will the Foerster family survive? This scribe's endings are never predictable...

"The Pilot and the Parrot" is second of "The Trilogy: Looking Back, Here and Now, Searching Forward." These enhanced productions feature novels interconnecting with ten scene plays and original songs.

James Allan Krause has won several awards, including “Best Narrator” from Outstanding Creator Awards in 2026. "The Pilot and the Parrot" was described by the award-giver as "an extraordinarily unconventional literary family saga.” Other awards were bestowed for characters and qualities.

“...a remarkable work of literary fiction," wrote Olga Markova of Readers’ Favorite.

Unlocking the Gate to the...

Alex Tusk

To understand what lies beyond the physical, we must first understand the nature of our reality. We live in a world of tangible things—things we can touch, see, and measure. Yet, countless philosophies and modern sciences alike suggest there is more to reality than meets the eye. Quantum physics, for instance, proposes that the universe is a field of energy, where everything is interconnected. Ancient spiritual traditions align with this, stating that beyond the physical world lies an intricate spiritual web that interweaves life, energy, and consciousness.
As seekers of truth and spiritual awareness, our task is to step beyond conditioned beliefs about reality. The journey into the spiritual realm is both personal and universal. Each individual will experience and understand it differently, yet we all share common tools and practices that open us up to spiritual perception. These practices aren’t foreign to us; in fact, they align with activities we know—like meditating, breathing, visualizing, and dreaming. These are the portals, the keys that unlock the doorway to spiritual realms.
Spiritual Perception vs. Physical Perception
To see beyond the physical, it is important to understand the difference between physical and spiritual perception. Physical perception is rooted in the five senses: sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell. It is limited to the physical, material world. Spiritual perception, however, engages what is often called the "sixth sense" or intuition. This perception involves heightened sensitivity, energy awareness, and the ability to pick up on vibrations that exist beyond the material world.

Deep Theta Sleep – Brainwave...

Elias Monroe

Deep Theta Sleep – Brainwave Music for Deep Rest is designed to create a calm and immersive nighttime sound environment that supports relaxation, mental recovery, and uninterrupted rest. Through slow-moving ambient textures and carefully balanced brainwave-inspired sound layers, the audio encourages the mind and body to gradually transition into deeper states of calm.

Theta-associated sound environments are often linked to moments of deep relaxation, meditation, and the natural slowing of mental activity that occurs before sleep. By maintaining a smooth and continuous atmosphere throughout the listening experience, this audio helps reduce external distraction and creates a more stable space for overnight recovery.

Modern life often keeps the mind active long after the day ends. Constant stimulation, stress, and mental overload can make it difficult to fully disconnect and settle into restorative sleep. This sound journey is intended to soften that constant activity by surrounding the listener with gentle and consistent audio that remains calm, spacious, and non-intrusive over extended listening sessions.

As the sound unfolds, mental tension can begin to ease naturally, supporting deeper relaxation and a more peaceful transition into sleep. The immersive nature of the audio makes it suitable for nighttime rest, meditation, stress recovery, relaxation, or creating a calming atmosphere before bed.

Over time, the continuous flow of sound can help create a more balanced nighttime environment that supports calm thinking, emotional relaxation, and deeper overnight rest.
