Sinossi

We are all a complex mixture of the elemental energies identified by many different cultures throughout history: Earth, Air, Fire, Water – and a fifth element called Quintessence or Spirit. As an actor, you need to be able to access each of them, so that you can draw on whichever element you need to bring your role fully into life.
In The Elemental Actor, Mel Churcher explores these deep, primal drives, and gives you practical tools to harness them to make your work more powerful and alive. Her unique approach combines elements of actor training, voice work and movement to increase your range and help you bring depth, specificity and intensity to your performance.
The book includes over one hundred games and exercises to help you explore each of the elements, incorporate this work into your practice, and apply it to the world of your role. There are also tips for preparing for auditions and dealing with performance anxiety, as well as advice on how to stay healthy in body, voice and mind.
Offering an everlasting palette that will enrich any performance, whether on stage or screen, The Elemental Actor will help you release the wellspring of your imagination, and put elemental power into your work.
Mel Churcher is an international acting, dialogue and voice coach who has worked with companies including the Royal National Theatre, Royal Shakespeare Company, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre, Shakespeare's Globe, Young Vic, Royal Court Theatre and Graeae Theatre Company. She is one of the top acting and dialogue coaches in TV and movies, and has worked with some of the biggest stars of stage and screen.

  • A Brief History of the Female Body - An Evolutionary Look at How and Why the Female Form Came to Be - cover

    A Brief History of the Female...

    From breasts and orgasms to periods, pregnancies, and menopause—A Brief History of the Female Body is a fascinating science book explaining the mysteries of the female body through an evolutionary lens. 
     
     
     
    Let's face it: The female body is an enigma. For teenagers first experiencing their periods, the monthly arrival of mood swings and cramps can be agonizing and inconvenient. With pregnancy—perhaps the most miraculous of bodily events—comes countless potential complications, including high blood pressure, diabetes, premature birth, and postpartum depression. And menopause is equally mystifying. Why do females lose their fertility over time and experience the notorious side effects—like hot flashes, weight gain, and hair loss—while males maintain their fertility forever? 
     
     
     
    Evolutionary geneticist and educator Dr. Deena Emera has spent much of her career studying the evolution of female reproduction. A Brief History of the Female Body draws on her vast expertise as a biologist, her experience as a mother of four children, and her love of teaching to look far into our evolutionary past, illuminating how and, more importantly, why the female form has transformed over millions of years and its effects on women's health.

    In The Body Keeps the Score, Dr. van der Kolk explores the effects of trauma on the human body and mind, and also offers new techniques for healing from trauma. The book is the result of Dr. van der Kolk’s research and his direct work with people who have survived traumatic experiences, ranging from childhood abuse to wartime combat. 
    The Body Keeps the Score highlights the fact that trauma is something that happens to many, many people and, if it goes untreated, it can cause pain not only for the sufferer, but also for the sufferer’s partner, family, children, and friends. What’s more, trauma has been shown to affect the sufferer’s physical well-being, in addition to his or her mental and emotional well-being. 
    In other words, if you suffer from trauma, you must learn how to heal it if you want to live a healthy, happy, peaceful life. Dr. van der Kolk shows you how.

    18 Ways We Make Life WAY Harder...

    Would you choose a life which is HARDER than it needs to be, or would you much prefer more EASE, PEACE and FULFILMENT? 
    That might be a dumb-arse question, but here’s the REALITY. 
    We knowing or unknowingly, consciously or unconsciously, make life WAY harder than it needs to be. Period.  
    Here are the main reasons: 
    ·     We have blind spots (we don’t know what we don’t know). 
    ·     We were poorly taught (or were never taught). 
    ·     We don’t realize how much the ‘little’ stuff adds up (to BIG stuff). 
    ·     We don’t consider how big of a pain in our butt some choices will become. 
    ·     We get too lazy, complacent or sloppy (and don’t realise the consequences). 
    In this light, insightful, practical, resource-rich and entertaining book, let long-time Mindset Coach, ex-Army Major and former Olympic Games security consultant teach you - plain and simple - where not to place your foot if you want to avoid the figurative doggie do-do (aka: shit) in life. Making your life (a LOT) less hard, and a whole lot more joyful, peaceful and fulfilling.   
    Are you read to be shown your blind-spots (and a better way to navigate them)? 
    The book comes with a great range of practical resources and access to some of Carl’s other Audiobooks. 
    Carl is also the author of The Guidebook Series, The Successful Mind and Decision Making Mastery. He has a podcast called Life Masterclass and conducts seminars online and around the world, from his tropical home base in Bali, where is has been coaching people in-person and remotely for over 16-years. 
    The book is accompanied by a great range of free Resources and Support.

    Perhaps in no other way do we more vibrantly reflect our creator than with our creativity. Whether through music, writing, baking, painting, posting on social media, dancing, or any other form of artistic expression within our grasp, we were created to create. Yet, there are times we may be unsure about our art, times when our creating and making doesn't feel possible or purposeful or practical. 
     
     
     
    Rachel Marie Kang wants you to know that your art is not peripheral to life—it is at the very heart of why you exist and what you have to offer to yourself and to the world. In Let There Be Art, she gives you permission to embrace the peace, pleasure, and purpose inherent in your art and in the process of making it. This passionate, creative, and cathartic journey invites you to create truthfully out of the broken and beautiful pieces of your life, as well as offer your heart and your art in hopes of helping a hurting world.

    Think and Grow Rich

    Think and Grow Rich is a motivational personal development and self-help book written by Napoleon Hill and inspired by a suggestion from Scottish-American businessman Andrew Carnegie. While the title implies that this book deals only with how to achieve monetary wealth, the author explains that the philosophy taught in the book can be used to help individuals do or be almost anything they want. For instance, Jim Murray (a sportswriter) wrote that Think and Grow Rich was credited for Ken Norton's boxing upset of Muhammad Ali in 1973. 
    The book was first published in 1937 during the Great Depression. At the time of Hill's death in 1970, Think and Grow Rich had sold 20 million copies. It remains the biggest seller of Napoleon Hill's books - a perennial best-seller after 70 years (BusinessWeek's best-seller list ranked Think and Grow Rich as the sixth best-selling paperback business book 70 years after it was first published). Think and Grow Rich is listed in John C. Maxwell's A Lifetime Must Read Books List.
