    Trauma and addiction heal in tandem with this paradigm-shifting approach. 
     
     
     
    What if addiction, dissociation, and other manifestations of trauma were not framed as diseases or disorders, but rather as adaptive methods of regulating the autonomic nervous system (ANS)? This book takes that approach, and guides listeners through twenty embodied practices that promote the rewiring of the ANS. By integrating the latest neuroscience from Stephen Porges's Polyvagal Theory with Eugene Gendlin's embodied felt sense, Jan Winhall's Felt Sense Polyvagal Model is a paradigm-shifting, deeply somatic approach to healing trauma and addiction. 
     
     
     
    Listeners are presented with two vital tools for healing: learning how to recognize and rewire their autonomic state, and finding the felt sense of somatic wisdom. This compassionate and inviting model centers the intelligence of the body to allow for deep healing, and these twenty step-by step exercises present an accessible approach for clinicians, their clients, and anyone on the journey to healing from trauma and addiction. The book's exercises are uniquely designed to be completed either with a mental health professional, another person engaged in this embodied process (a felt sense partner), or both.

    In this book I talk about my journey from freelance recruiter to the head of my own agency, share my checklists and tell you why I focus on professionalism rather than making money. If you follow this path with me in the book, you will learn what principles the recruitment guru professes, and you will be able to use my insights and experience to create your own start-up. There are two checklists waiting for you in the appendix at the end of the book. However, no successful entrepreneur (even if they claim otherwise) can pack the secret of their triumph into a case study. Success cannot be turned into a science because... everyone is different. It's as simple as that. Different company employees, different clients, different days of the year. My task is to inspire you and help you organize your actions on the road to success by suggesting obvious moves.  Over the years, I have built up a unique wealth of experience and knowledge which I would like to share with you. I do the bookkeeping, the paperwork, working with clients, responding to enquiries with quotations, and managing the company. I recently started a series of interviews with renowned experts to impart my professional experience not only to myself, but also to my partners and teachers. Today ADS has been on the market for 7 years, and we continue to improve our skills daily.  No one has ever written a book on recruiting research respondents. This one is the first. I see this book as a methodological guide for work related to recruiting research respondents and as a source of inspiration for those who are still dreaming of their own business. You can also learn from the book how not to recruit respondents. I also have a simple desire to help entrepreneurs and professionals in the field of research, branding and customer experience to understand that recruiting respondents is the most important part of research. And customer experience research is the key to a company's success in the marketplace.  Respondent recruitment is the mechanism by which we find research participants. Quality recruitment ensures that the research results are buyer-oriented, which means that a product (or an updated version of it) will come to market that will be in demand. Until recently, there has been little hope for recruitment, the value of this research tool has too often been ignored. My experience is that the right respondent is the right output data and a brilliant product decision and, as a result, the product's market leadership.  As soon as I found myself in recruitment, I realised that this was my vocation and this was where I wanted to grow and develop. This feeling led me and I enjoyed delving into all the intricacies, constantly striving for excellence. Every day I am growing as a professional and discovering new things. I used to manage 30 projects at the same time. Today I have automated many parallel processes, which has increased the quality and speed of our services. I have been able to free up time that had been wasted on mechanical operations to be able to think and observe. As I have changed, the market has transformed with me. Soon after founding ADS, competitors began to enter the market and the competition with them became an additional motivation to move forward.  With every word of this book, I want to convey how important it is to do what you like without looking back at others and to improve in your chosen direction. I will try to demonstrate by example how important it is to find your niche and stick to your chosen path, without turning off the beaten track, no matter how tempting it may be for the unsophisticated starter. Of course, after a few years of working in one place, burnout may set in. However, it is possible to get through it if you realise in your head that you are working for your vocation, and discovering new facets and opportunities will allow you to get a second wind and reach new levels of professionalism.

    “A devastating, passionate takedown of Chief Justice John Roberts's Supreme Court by a Washington insider.” —Jane Mayer, author of Dark Money 
    In the last twenty years the US Supreme Court has radically curtailed voting rights, undermined anti-corruption measures, encouraged extreme political gerrymandering, restricted the regulation of guns, and obliterated the constitutional right to control one’s reproductive choices. This transformation was orchestrated by a billionaire-backed reactionary political movement, whose interests Chief Justice John Roberts has been all too willing to serve. 
     
    Without Precedent explodes the falsehood that Roberts is a fair-minded institutionalist who works to blunt the worst impulses of other Republican appointees to the court when, in fact, he has led the rightward transformation of the court’s jurisprudence while presiding over the most corrupt and corrupted Supreme Court in American history. 
     
    Informed by Lisa Graves’s experience working on judicial issues for all three branches of the federal government, and based on years of intensive research, Without Precedent not only exposes Roberts as the reactionary politician in robes he has always been but delivers a vigorous plan of judicial reform designed to overcome the divisive, discriminatory, destructive, and anti-democratic machinations of the Roberts court. 
    This audiobook is expertly read by Teri Schnaubelt and the author, with audio engineering by Mike Thal. It was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, LLC, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
    The human nervous system operates like an intricate symphony, with countless neural pathways conducting the complex dance of our daily existence. At the heart of this orchestration lies the vagus nerve, a remarkable cranial nerve that serves as the primary highway of communication between our brain and body. For individuals on the autism spectrum, understanding this critical neural pathway offers profound insights into the unique ways their nervous systems process the world around them. 
    The vagus nerve, scientifically known as the tenth cranial nerve, extends from the brainstem down through the neck and into the chest and abdomen. This wandering nerve, whose name derives from the Latin word "vagus" meaning wanderer, touches nearly every major organ system in our body. It regulates heart rate, breathing patterns, digestion, and most importantly for our discussion, our ability to feel safe and socially connected in the world. 
    In the context of autism, the vagus nerve takes on particular significance because it directly influences what researchers call our "neuroception" - our unconscious ability to detect safety or danger in our environment. This process happens beneath the threshold of conscious awareness, yet it profoundly shapes every interaction, every sensory experience, and every emotional response an autistic individual encounters throughout their day.

    Saving Ryan is the inspiring story by physician-scientist Dr. Emil Kakkis about his journey to develop a new, first-ever treatment for an ultra-rare genetic disease called MPS. The scientist had great challenges getting grant and industry support for this rare disease despite the solid science behind doing the treatment. Simultaneously across the country, Mark Dant was in a quest to save his 9-year-old son, Ryan, afflicted by MPS for which there was no cure. Through extraordinary persistence, and with a clock-ticking on Ryan’s declining health, Mr. Dant eventually learns of Dr. Kakkis and his work, whose enzyme replacement therapy could potentially treat Ryan successfully. With renewed hope of saving his son’s life, Mr. Dant turns his attention to fundraising through his own Ryan Foundation to support the continued development of the life-saving treatment. Through an extraordinary series of obstacles and heartaches, Dr. Kakkis develops a successful treatment and ultimately gains the required support of a biotech company to complete the project. Despite early success treating MPS patients, the FDA’s abruptly changing policies caused great uncertainty as to whether the therapy would ever get approved – leading to a dramatic showdown at an FDA Advisory Committee meeting.
