Synopsis

"Runic Secrets" unveils the mysteries of runic alphabets, exploring their historical development and cultural significance in Germanic societies. Far from simple writing systems, runes were deeply intertwined with magic, divination, and artistic expression. Intriguingly, the Elder Futhark, Younger Futhark, and Anglo-Saxon Futhorc each reflect unique cultural adaptations and uses. The book avoids sensationalism, offering a balanced view of runes' multifaceted role.

 
The book journeys through the origins of runes, their perceived magical properties evidenced by archaeological finds, and their incorporation into literature. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the historical context, including social structures and religious beliefs. By drawing upon archaeology, linguistics, and mythology, "Runic Secrets" provides a comprehensive understanding, progressing from the basics of runic alphabets to their modern interpretations.

    The Overweight Mind and Body is a self-help guide to understanding the psychological issues that lead to overeating and weight gain. 
     
     
     
    The book enables the listener to discover the psychological drives that lead to unwanted weight and to find ways of meeting those drives other than with food. It introduces a simple, user-friendly theory of Transactional Analysis to promote weight-related self-awareness. She understands that, for many, carrying extra weight is emotionally and physically painful and so gently encourages listeners to explore at their own level. She uses case studies to demonstrate the many unconscious influences on one's eating and how, when people discover and resolve these influences, they no longer need extra food. Hearing them shows that "you are not alone." 
     
     
     
    This book will also be of interest to, and a useful guide for, practitioners in the caring professions who work with clients struggling with eating and overweight.
