  Everyone knows we inherit our physical DNA, but few people realize we also inherit our emotional DNA—an ancestral blueprint of thoughts, feelings, and actions handed down to us through multiple generations of repeated family patterns. In Decoding Your Emotional Blueprint, transformational coach Judy Wilkins-Smith shares the good news that no matter what blueprint you've been given, you have the power to change your life. 
   
   
   
  Wilkins-Smith adeptly guides listeners through both the art and science of creating lasting transformation by working with systemic dynamics and constellations. As she explains, all of the different systems we belong to—our families, organizations, careers, religions, clubs, cultures—subtly determine how we think, feel, choose, and act. When we illuminate our invisible allegiances to these systems, we're able to make new choices and watch a world of possibilities open before us. 
   
   
   
  Decoding Your Emotional Blueprint brings you a wealth of hands-on strategies and practices so you can learn to detect hidden and multigenerational patterns, recognize their purpose, and then transform old cycles to create an extraordinary life.

  MIDLIFE - Humanity's Secret Weapon

  Only two species of mammal have a post-reproductive life that lasts longer than their reproductive life: the killer whale, whose elders are able to sniff out food supplies over vast oceanic distances to keep their pods fed, and Homo sapiens. While the evolutionary purpose of the killer whale's extensive life seems clear, what is the point of ours?
  
  This was a question that intrigued psychoanalyst Carl Jung, who observed that if a culture is to maintain its deepest, profoundest roots while moving forward to embrace the challenges of historical and technological change, it needs to find an equilibrium between the energy, vigour and creativity of those in the ego-driven first half of life and the experience, dignity and wisdom of those in the second. But to make it to that second half of life, we need to traverse the dreaded 'middle years', when so many of us find ourselves discontent with our jobs, unhappy in our relationships and lamenting our fetishized youths.
  
  Drawing on history, psychology, science and literature, Jamieson shows just how ubiquitous, and crucial, the 'midlife crisis' is, and the devastating consequences for society at large if we continue to regard it as something we can, and should, avoid.

  Jack Zipes has spent decades as a "scholarly scavenger," discovering forgotten fairy tales in libraries, flea markets, used bookstores, and internet searches, and he has introduced countless readers to these remarkable works and their authors. In Buried Treasures, Zipes describes his special passion for uncovering political fairy tales of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, offers fascinating profiles of more than a dozen of their writers and illustrators, and shows why they deserve greater attention and appreciation. 
   
   
   
  These writers and artists used their remarkable talents to confront political oppression and economic exploitation by creating alternative, imaginative worlds that test the ethics and morals of the real world and expose hidden truths. Among the figures we meet here are Édouard Laboulaye, a jurist who wrote acute fairy tales about justice; Charles Godfrey Leland, a folklorist who found other worlds in tales of Native Americans, witches, and Roma; Kurt Schwitters, an artist who wrote satirical, antiauthoritarian stories; Mariette Lydis, a painter who depicted lost-and-found souls; Lisa Tetzner, who dramatized exploitation by elites; Felix Salten, who unveiled the real meaning of Bambi's dangerous life in the forest; and Gianni Rodari, whose work showed just how political and insightful fantasy stories can be.

  Ayn Rand - Objectivism and the...

  Ayn Rand's philosophy, known as Objectivism, centers around a few key principles: 
    
  Metaphysics: Rand asserts the primacy of existence. She argues that reality exists independent of our perceptions or beliefs, and that it is knowable through reason. 
    
  Epistemology: She champions reason as the only means of acquiring knowledge. According to Rand, reason is the faculty that identifies and integrates the material provided by our senses. 
    
  Ethics: Rand's ethical theory is based on rational self-interest or egoism. She argues that individuals should act in their own best interest, and that this is both moral and practical. The virtue of selfishness, as she terms it, means pursuing one’s own happiness as the highest moral aim. 
    
  Politics: Rand advocates for laissez-faire capitalism as the ideal political system. She believes that the government’s sole role should be to protect individual rights through the police, military, and judiciary, but not to interfere in the economy or individual choices. 
    
  Aesthetics: In her view, art is a reflection of an artist's values and vision of life. She supports Romantic Realism, where art is a representation of life as it could be and should be, celebrating human potential and achievement.
