Afterlife

Sinossi

 In late 2019, the Coronavirus emerged and spread quickly around the world. With it went the invisible virus of fear. No one knew how many of those who caught it would die, but the fear of death was in the air. Most of the world was locked down. No public figure asked or tried to answer the questions, at one time so deeply felt: ‘Is death the end?’ ‘Is there an afterlife?’ Perhaps they assumed the answers ‘Yes’ and ‘No’ respectively, but the author argues those answers are not to be taken for granted. Unasked questions cause untold psychological trouble.
 
The author tackles these questions in a direct, open way of interest to believers and non-believers alike. In fact, he asks, ‘If you do not believe, do you wish there were an afterlife?’
 
He acknowledges that he feels great sympathy with and respect for those who do not believe in the life of the world to come and admits that he was once one such. In the book, he explains frankly what he now believes and why.
 
He argues that it is the most important question that any of us faces: Are we or are we not created by God to live forever, first in this world and then in His nearer presence in the life of the world to come?
 
It is not a comfortable question to face, but which answer is true?

Rewire Your Brain 20 - Five...

PhD John B. Arden

Not long ago, it was thought that the brain you were born with was the brain you would die with, and that the brain cells you had at birth were the most you would ever possess. Your brain was thought to be hardwired to function in predetermined ways. It turns out that's not true. Your brain is not hardwired; it's "softwired" by experience. This book shows you how you can rewire parts of the brain to feel more positive about your life, remain calm during stressful times, and improve your social relationships. 
 
 
 
Written by a leader in the field of Brain-Based Therapy, it teaches you how to activate the parts of your brain that have been underactivated and calm down those areas that have been hyperactivated, so that you feel positive about your life and remain calm during stressful times. You will also learn to improve your memory, boost your mood, have better relationships, and get a good night's sleep. 
 
 
 
Rewire Your Brain reveals how cutting-edge developments in neuroscience and evidence-based practices can be used to improve your everyday life. Explaining exciting new developments in neuroscience and their applications to daily living, this audiobook will guide you through the process of changing your brain so you can change your life and be free of self-imposed limitations.

Easy Money - American Puritans...

Dror Goldberg

A sweeping history of the American invention of modern money. 
Economists endlessly debate the nature of legal tender monetary systems—coins and bills issued by a government or other authority. Yet the origins of these currencies have received little attention. 
Dror Goldberg tells the story of modern money in North America through the Massachusetts colony during the seventeenth century. As the young settlement transitioned to self-governance and its economy grew, the need to formalize a smooth exchange emerged. Printing local money followed. 
Easy Money illustrates how colonists invented contemporary currency by shifting its foundation from intrinsically valuable goods—such as silver—to the taxation of the state. Goldberg traces how this structure grew into a worldwide system in which, monetarily, we are all Massachusetts. Weaving economics, law, and American history, Easy Money is a new touchstone in the story of monetary systems.

The Age of Jackson - The Rise of...

Harry Montgomery

Andrew Jackson's rise to prominence began in the backwoods of the Carolinas, where he was born in 1767 to Irish immigrant parents. Orphaned at a young age and shaped by the violence of the Revolutionary War, Jackson's early years were filled with hardship and struggle. These formative experiences instilled in him a fierce independence and an unwavering sense of personal honor, traits that would define his character for the rest of his life. Largely self-taught and known for his fiery temper, Jackson developed a reputation for toughness, earning the nickname “Old Hickory” from soldiers who served under him. Despite limited formal education, he pursued a career in law and eventually moved westward to Tennessee, where he would find opportunity and recognition.
Jackson's military career was the first major platform that launched him into the national spotlight. During the War of 1812, he was appointed a general in the U.S. Army and quickly demonstrated his capabilities as a leader. His most celebrated moment came at the Battle of New Orleans in January 1815. Although the battle technically took place after the war had officially ended with the signing of the Treaty of Ghent, news had not yet reached American forces. Jackson’s troops, composed of militia, freedmen, Native Americans, and even pirates, faced a professional British army. Against the odds, they achieved a decisive victory, inflicting heavy casualties while suffering minimal losses. This triumph turned Jackson into a national hero and a symbol of American resilience and patriotism. The victory solidified his image as a man of action who could defend the country against foreign threats.

Healing the Adult Children of...

Shahida Arabi

Those who have had a narcissistic parent can testify to how damaging it can be to one's psyche. Narcissistic parents lack empathy, show a severe sense of entitlement to micromanage the lives of their children, and often subject their children to neglect, as well as emotional, psychological, and physical abuse. From the unique challenges daughters of narcissistic fathers face to the ways in which adverse childhood experiences affect our brains, Shahida Arabi's insightful essays resonate deeply with those who have been raised by narcissistic parents. In this new essay collection, Arabi explores how narcissistic abuse in childhood can set us up for trauma repetition in adulthood, affecting how we navigate relationships, the self, and the world. She pinpoints the toxic traits and behaviors of narcissistic mothers and fathers, exposing how covert abuse insidiously plays out in these specific dynamics. She offers the essential tools, skill sets, and healing modalities for survivors who have undergone a lifetime's worth of abuse, helping them to break the cycle once and for all for future generations.
