Secrets of Sex and Marriage - 8...

Shaunti Feldhahn, Dr. Michael...

Let's Talk about Sex 
 
 
 
Most people are curious about sex and would love a few answers. "Are we normal?" "Why isn't my spouse as interested in sex as I am?" "I don't want to feel pressured, but don't want to disappoint my spouse either—what do I do?" "How do we handle the impact of medication, menopause, porn, ED, pain . . . ?" 
 
 
 
Most importantly: "How can we get on the same page and create a thriving intimate life?" 
 
 
 
Sex is one of the most common marriage issues (for example, almost 80% of couples are mismatched in how often they want it), but it doesn't have to be that way.

More Please - On Food Fat...

Emma Specter

ONE OF TIME 100'S MUST-READ BOOKS OF 2024 • A DEBUTIFUL BEST BOOK OF 2024 • FEATURED IN NYLON • W MAGAZINE • GLAMOUR • BOOK RIOT • HEYALMA • BUSTLE • ELECTRIC LITERATURE • ROMPER • AND MORE! 
""Tender, funny, angry, and sharp as hell. This is an essential book for anyone with a body, anyone with a heart."" —Helen Rosner, James Beard Award-winning food journalist and New Yorker staff writer 
An unflinching and deeply reported look at the realities of binge-eating disorder from a rising culture commentator and writer for Vogue. 
Millions of us use restrictive diets, intermittent fasting, IV therapies, and Ozempic abuse to shrink until we are sample-size acceptable. But for the 30 million Americans who live with eating disorders, it isn’t just about less. More, Please is a chronicle of a lifelong fixation with food—its power to soothe, to comfort, to offer a fleeting escape from the outside world—as well as an examination of the ways in which compulsory thinness, diet culture, and the seductive promise of “wellness” have resulted in warping countless Americans’ relationship with healthy eating. 
Melding memoir, reportage, and in-depth interviews with some of the most prominent and knowledgeable commentators currently writing about food, fatness, and disordered eating—Virginia Sole-Smith, Virgie Tovar, Aiyana Ishmael, Leslie Jamison, and others—Emma Specter explores binge-eating disorder as both a personal problem and a societal one. In More, Please, she provides a context, a history, and a language for what it means to always want more than you’ll allow yourself to have.

Stop and Shift - The mindset...

Karen Allen

Let go of negative thoughts, renew your perspective, and create a strong, healthy mindset.

Whether you have encountered tragedy or have been worn down over time from experiences that have left you feeling overwhelmed, fearful, angry, or sad, this is your invitation to recognize that

You are not defined by what’s happened to you. You are defined by what you do.

You hold the power to shape your reality when you consciously choose your responses to what life throws your way.

In her groundbreaking book, Karen Allen shares her highly acclaimed Stop & Shift system, a mental strength training exercise that will help you trade your default state of negativity and discontent for a resilient mindset grounded in purpose and passion.

By practicing this mindset conditioning technique, you will be able to own your choices and navigate life’s ups and downs—in the moment—with empathy and intentionality. You will make better decisions that are not driven by your emotions or ego, but instead shaped by quality thoughts. As you retrain your brain to respond productively to challenges, loss, chaos, and the everyday annoyances that erode your composure and steal your joy, you will overcome stress, self-doubt, and anxiety and break free from dwelling on the past and neglecting your needs.

With dynamic exercises, action items, and journaling opportunities, you’ll learn to

Silence thoughts on purpose so that you can cultivate a mindset that is strong, healthy, intentional, focused, and transformed.

If you’re ready to let go of everything that’s holding you back from living a better life, this is your moment to Stop & Shift.

You know this moment...

The doctor called. Everything went numb. Your mind started spinning while the world stood still. The future you imagined vanished. Now what?

This audiobook is for you, the parent whose story is harder than it looks.
It does not assume you should be farther along than you are.

Told through letters inspired by The Screwtape Letters, you’ll step inside a realm you cannot see, where your exhaustion is not accidental.
────────────
Through contemplative storytelling, biblical wisdom, and the raw honesty of lament, you'll find:
• Permission to grieve what feels lost
• Language for struggles you’ve never been able to name
• Companionship that doesn't minimize your exhaustion or your situation
• Grace that's not transactional
• Hope that's honest—not chipper, not fake, but anchored in what's actually true

This audiobook is not:
• A 5-step plan to fix your child
• Toxic positivity disguised as faith
• Advice from someone who doesn't understand
• Empty promises that breakthrough is just around the corner

This audiobook is:
• A companion who gets the isolation, the grief, and spiritual exhaustion
• An invitation to wrestle with God and find ways to experience hope
• Literary, poignant, and deeply grounded in Scripture

Not advice. Not platitudes. Just honest companionship.
────────────
What if the internal suggestions—you're not strong enough, faithful enough, capable enough—are wrong?
If “I can’t do this anymore” has ever left your lips, this audiobook was written for you.

The Secrets of Alchemy

Lawrence M. Principe

In The Secrets of Alchemy, Lawrence M. Principe, one of the world's leading authorities on the subject, brings alchemy out of the shadows and restores it to its important place in human history and culture. By surveying what alchemy was and how it began, developed, and overlapped with a range of ideas and pursuits, Principe illuminates the practice. He vividly depicts the place of alchemy during its heyday in early modern Europe, and then explores how alchemy has fit into wider views of the cosmos and humanity, touching on its enduring place in literature, fine art, theater, and religion as well as its recent acceptance as a serious subject of study for historians of science. In addition, he introduces the listener to some of the most fascinating alchemists, such as Zosimos and Basil Valentine, whose lives dot alchemy's long reign from the third century and to the present day. Through his exploration of alchemists and their times, Principe pieces together closely guarded clues from obscure and fragmented texts to reveal alchemy's secrets, and—most exciting for budding alchemists—uses them to recreate many of the most famous recipes in his lab, including those for the "glass of antimony" and "philosophers' tree." This unique approach brings the listener closer to the actual work of alchemy than any other book.
