  Inviting new translations of classical Buddhist texts about why the self is an illusion—and why giving it up can free us from suffering 
   
   
   
  From self-realization and self-promotion to self-help and the selfie, the modern world encourages us to be self-obsessed. We are even told that finding ourselves is the key to happiness. Better to lose yourself! More than 2,500 years ago, the Buddha argued that the self is an illusion—and that our belief in it is the cause of most, if not all, of our suffering. How to Lose Yourself presents lively, accessible, and expert new translations of ancient Buddhist writings about the central, unique, and powerful Buddhist teaching of "no-self." 
   
   
   
  Drawn from three important Buddhist traditions, these essential Indian, Tibetan, and Chinese writings provide a rich sampling of the ways Buddhist philosophers have understood the idea that we are selfless persons—and why this insight is so therapeutic. When we let go of the self, we are awakened to the presence of all things as they truly are, and we let go of the anxiety, fear, greed, and hatred that are the source of all suffering.

  The Soul of the Helper - Seven...

  There are many kinds of helpers in our world, the caregivers among us. They are the social workers who serve the vulnerable, the nurses and doctors who treat the ill, the teachers who instruct the young, the first responders who rescue the imperiled, the faith leaders who comfort the congregation, the volunteers who support the community. And whether or not it is our professional calling, each of us is likely to serve as a caregiver at some point in our lives. These and many other efforts to serve are among the most noble pursuits we can imagine, but they come with a danger worth recognizing. 
   
   
   
  In their devotion to the well-being of others, caregivers routinely put their own well-being last and can unintentionally burn themselves out physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Their self-neglect has the potential to stir up feelings of anger and resentment, leading to a sense of guilt and shame. 
   
    
   
  In The Soul of the Helper, Dr. Holly Oxhandler shows caregivers and fellow helpers a more self-compassionate way to cope with their overwhelming responsibilities and to attend to their own needs, particularly when it comes to their mental health and spiritual journey. She invites them to pause and realize that if they let their personal resources run dry, they cannot possibly care for others as fully as they wish.

  Since the publication of its first edition in April 2014, Dr Myhill's guide to understanding and overcoming CFS/ME has become a must-read for sufferers from this poorly understood condition. As one example of the nearly 300 5-star reviewers on Amazon says: 'Extremely useful, well written, concepts well explained, absolutely great investment of money and time in reading it.' In the seven years since the second edition was published (January 2017) both new research and new clinical findings have thrown further light onto a condition that for sufferers is life-stopping but for many doctors is 'all in the mind'. Most recently, the UK's NICE guidelines have been updated and Long Covid has changed mainstream perceptions of post-viral fatigue, while Dr Myhill has looked further beyond mainstream medicine into often-ignored more traditional treatments including methylene blue and DMSO. Dr Myhill, supported by expert patient Craig Robinson, has fully rewritten and updated her book to include new insights throughout and new chapters on the PK diet, photodynamic therapy, micro-immunotherapy, ME and Long Covid, and the politics of CFS and ME.

  Are you ready to rethink your beliefs, let go of heavy expectations, and rise to claim the joy and fulfillment you deserve?
  
  Growing up as a first-generation Latina and navigating fast-paced corporate work environments, Arivee Vargas is well-versed in how heavily cultural and societal expectations can weigh on women of color trying to traverse life, work, and, for some, motherhood. Arivee wrote this book primarily for women of color who are ready to embark on the path of change, get honest with themselves, and decide how they want to live and work. 
       Your Time to Rise is about increasing self-awareness, gaining clarity, uncovering your truth, envisioning possibilities, and aligning what’s inside with what you’re doing, saying, and pursuing on the outside. Arivee shows you how to use her simple, four-part framework to navigate personal and professional inflection points. She also gives relatable examples of what women (and specifically, women of color) face at the intersection of work and their personal lives.
       Most importantly, Arivee provides actionable strategies and tools to help you break free from the often harmful and limiting beliefs and expectations you've internalized that are keeping you stuck and dissatisfied. Your Time to Rise will equip you with what you need on your journey to rise up to claim your truth and the long overdue clarity, joy, and fulfillment you deserve.

  Think, we often peruse over things, ideas, situations, and anything that matters. We on the other hand refuse to do just that, think. We want life to be a nonstop Ferris wheel. Yet, when we have to actually think about anything, it challenges us to see us and life in its entirety.
