Norse mythology is a vast and intricate belief system that shaped the spiritual and cultural identity of the Scandinavian people. Rooted in oral traditions and later recorded in texts such as the *Poetic Edda* and *Prose Edda*, these myths offer a glimpse into a world filled with powerful gods, fearsome giants, and legendary heroes. Unlike many other mythologies, Norse myths do not present a perfect and orderly universe but rather one marked by struggle, chaos, and an inevitable end. At the heart of Norse cosmology are the Nine Realms, each interconnected through Yggdrasil, the great World Tree. These realms include Asgard, the home of the gods; Midgard, the realm of humans; and Jotunheim, the land of giants, among others. The Norse viewed the universe as a place of constant conflict and transformation, where even the gods were not immune to fate. This belief in destiny was central to their worldview, with figures like the Norns weaving the threads of fate for gods and mortals alike. Prophecy played a significant role in Norse mythology, shaping the actions of both gods and mortals. One of the most well-known prophecies is that of Ragnarok, the great battle that would bring about the end of the world. Unlike many other religious traditions that offer eternal salvation, Norse myths emphasize the inevitability of destruction and rebirth. Even Odin, the Allfather, seeks wisdom not to change fate but to prepare for its arrival.Zum Buch

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Most people walk through life using instinct, emotion and survival patterns they never consciously chose. They repeat the same loops, fall into the same reactions and live inside identities built from old experiences rather than future possibilities. The Clarity Codes was written to change that. This book reveals the psychological operating system behind your mind-the unseen structures, emotional algorithms and behavioural patterns that shape how you think, feel, act and evolve. Instead of motivational clichés, you get real mechanisms: how the brain forms loops, how emotions hijack logic, how habits embed into identity, how trauma becomes a pattern and how the mind can be retrained with precision. Across its chapters, you’ll learn how to calm mental noise, regulate emotional floods, dissolve cognitive distortions, stop self-sabotage, rewire patterns, break cycles of avoidance and build a self-image that naturally creates better choices. Each concept comes with simple, direct tools you can use immediately-no jargon, no fluff, just clarity. The book now includes three practical Clarity Protocols designed for different timeframes: a 30-minute reset, a 3-hour reset and a 3-week transformation plan, so you can apply the principles in the way that fits your life. You will learn how to: • interrupt overthinking without fighting thoughts • dissolve anxiety loops using cognitive and physical resets • stop emotional spirals before they take over • shift identity through small, repeatable actions • build habits that stick because they match who you are becoming • navigate relationships with clarity instead of reaction • process experiences without being overwhelmed • design your future self with intention rather than hope By the end, you will gain something most people never receive: a clear internal map for being human.Zum Buch
The remarkable true story of the rise and fall of one of North America's most influential media moguls. When George McCullagh bought The Globe and The Mail and Empire and merged them into the Globe and Mail, the charismatic 31-year-old high school dropout had already made millions on the stock market. It was just the beginning of the meteoric rise of a man widely expected to one day be prime minister of Canada. But the charismatic McCullagh had a dark side. Dogged by the bipolar disorder that destroyed his political ambitions and eventually killed him, he was all but written out of history. It was a loss so significant that journalist Robert Fulford has called McCullagh’s biography "one of the great unwritten books in Canadian history"—until now. In Big Men Fear Me, award-winning historian Mark Bourrie tells the remarkable story of McCullagh’s inspirational rise and devastating fall, and with it sheds new light on the resurgence of populist politics, challenges to collective action, and attacks on the free press that characterize our own tumultuous era.Zum Buch

Joan of Arc was born around January 6, 1412, in the small village of Domrémy, located in northeastern France. She came from a modest family of farmers, with her father, Jacques d’Arc, being a well-respected member of the community. Her mother, Isabelle Romée, was known for her devout religious beliefs, which would greatly influence Joan's early life. Joan was one of five children, and although she lived in relative poverty, her family provided her with a stable and loving environment. Growing up in Domrémy, Joan was surrounded by the rural landscape of Lorraine, a region that was politically unstable at the time. The Hundred Years’ War, which pitted France against England, had caused widespread hardship for many French families. Domrémy, being on the border of French and Burgundian territories, was caught in the middle of this conflict. Joan witnessed firsthand the suffering of the French people, including raids and the destruction of villages, which left a lasting impact on her. Joan was a deeply religious child, often spending time in the local church. It is said that she learned about the lives of saints and felt a special connection to them. Her strong faith became a central part of her identity. By the age of 13, Joan began to experience mystical visions. These visions, which she later described as coming from saints such as Saint Michael, Saint Catherine, and Saint Margaret, were significant in shaping her future. The voices instructed her to help the French crown, specifically to assist Charles VII, the Dauphin, in reclaiming his throne and driving out the English forces from France. Joan took these visions seriously, believing they were divine instructions, and they set her on a path that would change the course of history.Zum Buch
