  Julian of Norwich: The Showings...

  "As a major fan and promoter of Julian of Norwich, whom I call 'my favorite mystic', it is genuinely exciting to find such a faithful but freeing translation of Julian's long-lost Showings. Now they are no longer lost—for anyone!"—Fr. Richard Rohr, O.F.M., Center for Action and Contemplation 
   In this contemporary translation of one of the most beloved and influential mystical texts of all time, Julian of Norwich: The Showings brings the message and spirituality of this 14th-century mystic to 21st-century readers. Revelations of Divine Love, the first book published in English attributed to a woman, is also included.  
   Julian of Norwich, a contemporary of Geoffrey Chaucer, was an English anchoress in East Anglia. At the age of 30, suffering from a severe illness and believing she was on her deathbed, Julian had a series of intense visions of Jesus, which she recorded and then expanded on later in her life. In her visions, God was not angry and wrathful. Instead, the three properties of God were presented as life, love, and light, and all of His creation was good, including his servant, man. In Julian's version, man is not to blame for his sin; sin is something that he must experience and overcome in his spiritual journey with God.  
   Her message for today's readers is simply this: 
  She reveals the feminine face of the Divine and reminds us to see God there.All our failings are an opportunity to learn and grow; they should be honored, but not dwelled upon.God's love has nothing to do with love and retribution and everything to do with love and compassion.In spite of all appearances, all is well. This book contains some of the most profound spiritual writing ever written and remains a perennial favorite among Christians. 
   This book was previously published as The Showings of Julian of Norwich. This new edition includes a foreword by Richard Rohr, author of Falling Upwards.

  Tsar Nicholas II - Biography of...

  Nicholas II, or Nikolai II Alexandrovich Romanov (18 May [O.S. 6 May] 1868 – 17 July 1918), was the last Emperor of Russia, reigning from 1 November 1894 to 15 March 1917. Revered as Saint Nicholas the Passion-Bearer in the Russian Orthodox Church, he also held the titles of King of Congress Poland and Grand Duke of Finland. His reign marked the end of the Romanov dynasty's 304-year rule over Russia. Though Nicholas supported economic and political reforms proposed by his prime ministers, Sergei Witte and Pyotr Stolypin, his adherence to authoritarianism and reluctance to empower the Duma stymied significant progress. His reign was further undermined by aristocratic resistance and military defeats during the Russo-Japanese War and World War I, which eroded public confidence in his leadership. 
  Internationally, Nicholas sought to bolster Russia's position through alliances and diplomatic agreements. He signed the Anglo-Russian Convention of 1907, aiming to counter German influence in the Middle East and end the longstanding Great Game rivalry with Britain. Earlier, he had initiated the Hague Convention of 1899, a pioneering but ultimately unsuccessful effort to promote disarmament and peaceful conflict resolution. These measures were part of his broader vision to solidify the Franco-Russian Alliance and strengthen Russia's global standing. 
  Domestically, however, Nicholas' reign was plagued by crises and controversies. He faced widespread criticism for his government's repressive policies, particularly during moments of significant unrest. The Khodynka Tragedy, a catastrophic stampede at his coronation celebrations, set a grim tone for his rule. His apparent complicity in anti-Jewish pogroms, the violent crackdown on Bloody Sunday in 1905, and the brutal suppression of the Russian Revolution that same year further tarnished his reputation.

  ● Directions on the specific timing of each intervention

  Person-Centered Therapy -...

  Person-Centered Therapy (PCT), also known as Client-Centered Therapy, was developed by Carl Rogers in the mid-20th century. It is one of the most influential and humanistic approaches to psychotherapy, focusing on the intrinsic potential for growth within each individual. At its core, PCT is rooted in the belief that every person has the capacity for self-understanding and self-direction, given the right environment. The therapeutic relationship is not one of authority or expertise; instead, it is based on mutual respect and understanding. This approach emphasizes the client's subjective experience as the most important aspect of therapy, with the therapist acting as a facilitator of the client's self-exploration and personal growth. 
  Carl Rogers was a pioneering figure in the field of psychology, advocating for a shift away from the more directive methods that were common at the time. His emphasis on empathy, genuineness, and unconditional positive regard—three foundational components of PCT—marks a departure from the idea that therapists should control the process of healing. Instead, Rogers proposed that when individuals feel truly heard, understood, and accepted by another person, they are able to engage in meaningful self-exploration that leads to change. This trust in the client’s own ability to navigate their struggles forms the bedrock of Person-Centered Therapy. 
  The essence of Person-Centered Therapy lies in the relationship between the client and therapist. Rather than focusing on diagnosing and treating specific problems, the therapy process is more holistic. It invites clients to explore their feelings, experiences, and sense of self in a supportive and nonjudgmental space.
