  Brain injuries can result in highly specific and surprising changes in behavior that have revealed to us how the mind works.The brain is the most complicated object in the known universe. After spending millennia trying to understand our ever-changing world, the brain is now turning its capacities for reasoning, remembering, and understanding inward, as it tries to understand itself.The biggest breakthroughs in neuroscience have come mostly by accident. These accidents didn't happen in research labs. They happened on railway job sites, in showers, on bicycles, in cars or were the result of infections from uncommon diseases.When an individual suffers brain damage as the result of an accident or illness, the negative effects can be profound—life altering and lifelong—yet the insights offered by the effects of these injuries have been revolutionary for neuroscientists. Through an examination of landmark cases of traumatic brain injury, Dr. Lorin J. Elias explains how each case has expanded our understanding of the mind.

  When Dwight Eisenhower graduated from West Point in 1915, few would have predicted he was destined for greatness. Yet the young officer made the most of the opportunities he was given, made a lasting impression on superiors, and eventually gained a reputation as an excellent staff officer. 
   
   
   
  Fifty-nine graduates became generals during World War II, but none of that was clear at the time, especially not for the young Dwight Eisenhower, who graduated sixty-first in a class of 164. 
   
   
   
  During the 1920s into the early 1930s Eisenhower started to catch the eye of superiors and earned positions under the U.S. Army's leading lights. 
   
   
   
  Eisenhower joined the General Staff in Washington, DC, where he helped develop war plans and eventually became deputy chief of staff under George Marshall. When the time came to appoint a commander to execute the plans, Marshall knew Eisenhower was the man for the job. 
   
   
   
  Becoming Eisenhower is the story of a young man who first pursued the army for its free education, the story of an officer who was initially overlooked, the story of how General Eisenhower carried these experiences not only into Supreme Command but also the presidency.

  Embody - Feel Heal and Transform...

  Toni Bergins

  A new paradigm for embodied healing in a unique, experiential, therapeutic process in which expressive movement, guided imagery, ritual, music, and creative expression work together. 
    
  In Embody, Toni Bergins, the founder and creator of JourneyDance, an internationally renowned dance movement program, shares with readers a powerful way to address trauma mindfully so people can confront it, heal, and grow to love themselves unconditionally, just as they are. Embody is a dynamic, conscious practice that can help people release what no longer serves them and shows them how to stop stuffing/numbing the pain and start feeling, stop over-thinking/limiting, and get moving! 
    
  Embodiment is the new buzzword in personal transformation, but, most often, it is connected to static practices like breathwork and meditation. For Toni Bergins, embodiment is best achieved through active movement, and has created a practice where people literally get out of their heads and into their bodies! Her program is a trauma-informed one that offers a new promise: leading readers through deep, personal work but making it feel like play. In this book, she turns the heaviness of processing pain and past trauma into an expressive art aligned with the most recent research. Specifically, trauma expert Bessel van der Kolk, writes in his bestselling The Body Keeps the Score, “In order to overcome trauma, people need to feel safe enough to open their hearts and minds to others and become engaged with new possibilities. This can be done if trauma survivors are helped to confront and confess the reality of what has happened and are helped to feel safe again. In many cultures this involves communal rhythmical activities, such as dancing …” And that is Toni Bergins’ mission and method: to help readers move into a new story for their lives. 
    
  Embody features Toni’s prescription for a comprehensive healing journey, comprised of five core elements: 
    
  • Music, to open the doorways of impulse, imagination, creativity and healing to change mood and awareness; 
    
  • Movement, to enhance presence and confidence, and release old patterns and traumas; 
    
  • Mystical Inquiry, where imagery and creative visualization exercises are used to guide readers into an alchemic and shamanic state to investigate past hurts, and learn to trust their instincts; 
    
  • Prayers and Invocations, to raise energetic vibrations to a positive place with powerful affirmations; and 
    
  • Journaling, with writing prompts to process inner self-awareness learned on the dance floor or through any of the other Embody elements. 
    
  This enhanced audiobook features original music by the author and includes a supplemental PDF.
