    Discipline is a concept that refers to the training and behavior of a person to follow rules, standards, or guidelines in a particular area of activity or pursuit. It is the practice of training oneself to follow a particular set of rules, standards, or guidelines in order to achieve a goal or achieve excellence in a particular area. Discipline can be applied in many different areas of life, including work, school, sports, and personal relationships. 
    There are many different approaches to discipline, and different people and organizations may have different philosophies about how best to achieve discipline. Some people believe that discipline is best achieved through punishment or rewards, while others believe that discipline should be more holistic, focusing on developing self-control and self-regulation. 
    Regardless of the approach taken, discipline is an important aspect of personal development and can help individuals achieve their goals, maintain good relationships, and live a healthy and productive life.

    An engaging new translation of a timeless masterpiece about coping with the death of a loved one 
     
     
     
    In 45 BCE, the Roman statesman Cicero fell to pieces when his beloved daughter, Tullia, died from complications of childbirth. But from the depths of despair, Cicero fought his way back. In an effort to cope with his loss, he wrote a consolation speech—not for others, as had always been done, but for himself. And it worked. Cicero's Consolation was something new in literature, equal parts philosophy and motivational speech. Drawing on the full range of Greek philosophy and Roman history, Cicero convinced himself that death and loss are part of life, and that if others have survived them, we can, too; resilience, endurance, and fortitude are the way forward. 
     
     
     
    Lost in antiquity, Cicero's Consolation was recreated in the Renaissance from hints in Cicero's other writings and the Greek and Latin consolatory tradition. The resulting masterpiece—translated here for the first time in 250 years—is infused throughout with Cicero's thought and spirit. 
     
     
     
    Complete with an inviting introduction, Michael Fontaine's engaging translation makes this searching exploration of grief available to readers once again.

    “You don’t just survive. You transform.” 
    The Seed is the first book in The Bloom Series — a bold, genre-defying collaboration between two women reclaiming their stories and offering a lifeline to others. 
    Co-authored by Adeline Ward, an Australian-American actress, writer, and storyteller rooted in healing and truth and Mad Paraluman, a Filipina-American U.S. Navy veteran, immigrant, and survivor of domestic violence and systemic harm. This book is both a mirror and a schematic — designed for anyone navigating trauma, identity, and self-reclamation. 
    Through poetic prose, raw vulnerability, and quiet rebellion, The Seed blends memoir, cultural reflection, and practical tools. From the silence of abuse to the roar of aircraft hangars, Adeline and Mad’s stories intersect at the edges of survival and bloom into truth, sisterhood, and radical softness. 
    This is not just a story — it is a becoming. 
    Whether you are recovering from rupture or learning to hold space for another, The Seed offers tools and reflection rooted in community care, shared language, and co-healing. 
    You are not broken. You are blooming. And you don’t have to do it alone — if you dare to build the community you need.

    On The Firmness Of the Wise...

    What does it mean to be truly unshakeable? How do you ensure that insult and injury do not harm you? 
     
    Seneca knew how to endure the unendurable. Despite being one of the most rich and powerful men in Rome, but his life was a sustained exercise in surviving forces beyond his control. He was nearly executed by the paranoid emperor Caligula, exiled to the island of Corsica for eight long years on a false accusation, and spent his final years navigating the murderous whims of Nero, a student he had shaped and whom he could no longer restrain. In the end, ordered by Nero to take his own life in 65 CE, Seneca faced death with a composure that seemed to embody the very firmness he had described.  
    Knowing this makes this book a manual written by someone who needed it, not just another guru telling people how to live lessons they’ve never learned. 
    Addressed to his young friend Annaeus Serenus, the text unfolds as a warm, philosophical dialogue. Seneca states that the person who has cultivated genuine wisdom possesses an inner solidity that no external force can harm.  
    He acknowledges freely that the sage is more an ideal to aim for than a person we will ever meet in the flesh, but that we can journey towards that ideal through the steady, daily practice of identifying what lies within our control, refusing to outsource our wellbeing to the opinions of others, and meeting adversity not with despair or bitterness but with a kind of clear-eyed readiness. 
    The only genuine harm we can suffer is the damage we do to our own character through vice. This firmness is not a hardening of the heart, nor a retreat from emotion, but a deep-seated steadiness built on a clear understanding of what genuinely matters.  The goal is not to eliminate feeling but to transform it, cultivating a relationship with the world that is engaged yet steady, open-hearted yet self-possessed. 
     
    Learn how to separate insult and injury from harm from the master of Stoicism.
