Summary

“Cold Exposure” explores the science-backed benefits of cold therapy as a natural method for stress management, mental clarity, and potentially supporting addiction recovery. It highlights how controlled cold exposure, such as ice baths or cold showers, can act as a hormetic stressor, strengthening resilience, and improving the body's response to daily stressors. 

 
The book also examines the cognitive enhancements associated with cold exposure, including increased focus and alertness, drawing on research to explain how cold therapy affects physiological and psychological states. 

 
The book delves into the historical context of cold exposure practices, from ancient sauna rituals to modern ice baths, tracing their evolution and the scientific discoveries that underpin their benefits. It presents a practical, evidence-based approach to incorporating cold exposure into daily life, offering guidelines for safely and effectively practicing cold therapy for stress reduction, cognitive enhancement, and addiction recovery support. 

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with the fundamental mechanisms of cold therapy and its impact on the body and mind. Later sections focus on specific applications of cold exposure, concluding with practical guidance, real-world examples, and a discussion of potential risks, empowering readers to take control of their well-being.

    You’re not alone and you’re not broken. Period. 
What if I told you that thoughts are just sentences in your brain - not reality. What if I told you that emotions are just temporary sensations in your body - that can pass in 90 seconds when we don’t resist them. 
Thinking we are alone, based on the sentences in our brain or the sensations in our body - and feeling broken because of them - dictates so many of our decisions.  
And when we believe the lie that we are the problem: 
We feel stuck. Like “standing-in-wet-cement,” kind of stuck. 
We believe anxiety is who we are instead of an emotion we experience. 
We feel shame. So much shame. 
We use food, alcohol, sugar, shopping, or our phones as rewards, punishments, or distractions. 
We have crappy boundaries or no boundaries at all. 
We don’t ask for what we want or need in relationships. 
We feel like we need to conform when what we really want is to be the amazing weirdos we are! 
Sound familiar? Then it’s time to Reset Your Mindset. Overcoming the lie is as simple as befriending your brain and your body.  
Through kitten steps and “one percent changes”, I invite you to question your unhelpful thoughts and feelings so you can take your power back - while we laugh (and swear) together along the way!  
Let’s go, Sunshine, I’ve got your back!

    You've Been Racing in a Competition That Doesn't Exist 
What if everything causing your anxiety—the comparison, the pressure, the feeling of falling behind—was all based on a lie? 
You scroll through social media feeling inadequate. You measure your career against colleagues who seem further ahead. You stress about milestones you "should" have hit by now. You race through days collecting achievements that never feel like enough.

In There Is No Exam, Eric Salinas turns the road we all travel—the highways, the speed, the passengers we carry—into a mirror that reveals a truth that changes everything: the constant pressure to prove yourself was never coming from an actual judge—it was programmed into you, and you can unlearn it.Through 24 chapters, you'll discover:Why comparison is relative—and why that changes everythingHow to stop living in countdown mode and start accumulating lifeThe only competition that actually matters (hint: it's with yesterday's you)Why your influence reaches further than you'll ever seeHow to drive your own route without apologizing for your pace 
There Is No Exam permanently shifts how you see yourself, your progress, and your worth. You'll stop feeling behind. You'll recognize the imaginary competitions you've been losing sleep over. And you'll finally see that the finish line you've been sprinting toward was never there to begin with.

    Rethink Retirement is a fresh, compassionate, and thought-provoking reexamination of one of life’s most misunderstood transitions. While our culture portrays retirement as an escape into leisure and freedom, the reality for many is far more complex. Losing professional identity, routines, community, and purpose can be jarring, even destabilizing. Dr. Andrea “Andi” Simon—corporate anthropologist, award-winning author, and expert in culture change—invites readers to see retirement not as an ending, but as a profound opportunity for reinvention. 
Drawing on anthropology, neuroscience, and more than a hundred interviews, Simon explores how cultural myths shape expectations about aging and work. She reveals why so many people feel lost when the familiar structure of employment disappears—and how they can create new rhythms, relationships, and sources of meaning. Through rich personal stories, including her husband Andrew’s journey after selling his company, readers witness the diverse ways people reshape their identity and purpose in later life. 
This book offers a roadmap for personal transformation, covering identity shifts, rebuilding social connections, creating structure, renewing purpose, and redefining contribution. Simon provides reflective exercises, readiness profiles, and practical tools to help readers design a fulfilling and intentional next stage. Whether preparing for retirement, navigating it now, or supporting a partner or parent through the transition, readers will find empathy, insight, and possibility on every page. 
Rethink Retirement reframes aging as growth, contribution, and reinvention. It is a powerful invitation to craft a life not defined by what you leave behind—but by what you are ready to become.

    “The most thorough and understandable exposition of the underlying theories and the practical applications of the spiritual disciplines of Thelema currently available. A landmark work.” —Lon Milo DuQuette, author of The Magick of Aleister Crowley 
The system of spiritual attainment developed by Aleister Crowley is notoriously challenging in its scope. Living Thelema, adapted from the popular podcast of the same name, brings a welcome approachability to Crowley’s material, without diminishing the depth of the system. The author focuses on the practical and experiential aspects of the path of Thelema, allowing the reader to grasp the true transformative power of the system.  
Beginners and advanced practitioners alike will find much useful advice here, as Shoemaker brings his characteristic down-to-earth style to bear on topics such as ritual and meditation practices, sex magick, astral projection, psychotherapy for magicians, the Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel, and that pinnacle of attainment known as the crossing of the Abyss.  
The author’s background as a practicing psychotherapist allows an entirely unique fusion of esoteric wisdom and cognitive science.  
 “In this entertaining and (dare I say it?) lively book, David Shoemaker reminds us that Thelema is not just a philosophy or a study but a spiritual practice. From applied ‘how to’ advice to thought-provoking ‘how about’ posers, Dr. Shoemaker offers his personal take—informed by twenty years of walking the talk, along with his incisiveness as a professional therapist—on how to get the most out of the fundamental Thelemic practices of yoga and ritual, both inside and outside of the temple.” —Richard Kaczynski, author of Perdurabo: The Life of Aleister Crowley
