  If you have anxiety or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), you may also struggle with body-based obsessions—constant fears and worries about your physical and mental health. You may worry that your heart will stop beating, or that you'll stop breathing. You might obsess over your physical appearance, feel like there's something physically wrong with your brain, or fear that you are "going crazy." So, how can you break free from anxiety and obsessions about your body and brain? 
   
   
   
  Drawing on a combination of evidence-based CBT, exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP), mindfulness, and compassion-focused therapy, The Body-Based Obsessions Workbook offers powerful skills to help you manage intrusive thoughts and obsessions, and take back your life. You'll learn the difference between body-based obsessions and other disorders such as body dysmorphic disorder or health anxiety, and find practical tools to manage your worst symptoms—such as rumination, constant checking or monitoring of your breathing or heart rate, or fears about your mental health. 
   
   
   
  If you struggle with intense, intrusive thoughts about your body and brain, you're not alone—and there is help. This workbook will teach you proven-effective skills to overcome your obsessions, so you can experience lasting peace and comfort in your own body.

  Body Am I - The New Science of...

  The body is central to our sense of identity. Bodily awareness, says scientist-writer Moheb Costandi, is key to self-consciousness. In Body Am I, Costandi examines how the brain perceives the body, how that perception translates into our conscious experience of the body, and how that experience contributes to our sense of self. Along the way, he explores what can happen when the mechanisms of bodily awareness are disturbed, leading to such phenomena as phantom limbs, alien hands, and amputee fetishes. 
   
   
    
  Costandi explains that the brain generates maps and models of the body that guide how we perceive and use it, and that these maps and models are repeatedly modified and reconstructed. Drawing on recent bodily awareness research, the new science of self-consciousness, and historical milestones in neurology, he describes a range of psychiatric and neurological disorders that result when body and brain are out of sync, including not only the well-known phantom limb syndrome but also phantom breast and phantom penis syndromes; body integrity identity disorder, which compels a person to disown and then amputate a healthy arm or leg; and such eating disorders as anorexia. 
   
   
    
  Wide-ranging and meticulously researched, Body Am I offers new insight into self-consciousness by describing it in terms of bodily awareness.

  Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke opens with the appearance of enormous, silent ships above Earth’s major cities, signaling the arrival of the technologically advanced Overlords.

The narrative delves into themes of control, cultural change, human curiosity, and the impact of a vastly superior civilization on a developing race. It also examines the personal challenges faced by individuals as they try to understand the Overlords' true motives and the ramifications for humanity’s future.
