Sinopse

494 AD. - Almost twenty years after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Gaul and the Iberian Peninsula are now part of the vast kingdom of the Visigoths.
Their ruler himself, Alaric II son of the famous Euricus, reigns with an iron fist over a population as submissive as it is heterogeneous, consisting indeed of barbarians but
also by Romans now devoid of pride and patriotism. But despite his reprisals and his continual oppressive taxation, one of the surviving Romans of Hispania
will find within himself the strength to rekindle the ancient fire that enabled his ancestors to found and make the empire great. To his surprise, Claudius Aemilius Iberus,
known as Burdunellus, will succeed in making his personal cause that of all the people of Hispania, severely threatening Alaric's throne and sparking
one of the last, fierce but also least-told rebellions of the post-imperial age.

    Archetypes can help you write stories that tap the depths of the human experience. This 45-minute guided meditation will help you dive deep into your subconscious creativity and write a resonant Maiden Arc story.  
    As the first archetypal journey in the cycle of life arcs, the Maiden represents a crucial initiatory experience. This coming-of-age arc will take you and your characters on a journey through all the challenges of growing up, individuating from authority figures, and finding an identity and role in a wider world that often seems overwhelming and even dangerous.  
    This meditation will help you visualize and imagine important characters and settings. It gives you the opportunity to explore every vital beat while offering all the space you need to find your own unique story. It will show you how your character may interact with corresponding archetypal antagonists (Authority and Predator) and grapple with a thematic Lie and Truth (Submission vs. Sovereignty) in order to evolve from Innocent to Individual.   
    (Note: Although a feminine arc, this journey may be taken by any character of any gender. Gender-neutral terms are used throughout the meditation to help you apply its imagery to the specifics of your own story.) 
    K.M. Weiland’s book Writing Archetypal Character Arcs taught writers how to identify and structure the six most important initiatory journeys of the human experience (Maiden, Hero, Queen, King, Crone, and Mage). These “life arcs” include the youthful Hero’s Journey as one of six, but go so much deeper to explore little-known feminine and elder arcs as well. 
    Now you can explore these archetypal journeys yourself by accessing the potent tool of “dreamzoning.” Just sit back and let your imagination take over as these audio adventures guide you through every important beat in the archetypal arcs.

    Psychological Coercion - Using...

    Psychological coercion is a powerful and often insidious form of manipulation designed to force an individual to act against their will or better judgment. It involves the use of mental and emotional tactics to instill fear, guilt, or pressure, making the person feel compelled to comply with demands or expectations. While it does not rely on physical force, the impact of psychological coercion can be just as damaging, if not more so, as it leaves lasting emotional scars that can affect an individual’s sense of self-worth, autonomy, and mental health. 
    At its core, psychological coercion undermines a person’s ability to make decisions freely. It exploits their vulnerabilities—whether emotional, psychological, or social—in order to gain control or influence their behavior. This form of coercion can take many different shapes, including threats, isolation, intimidation, manipulation, or subtle forms of pressure. While the methods may vary, the common thread is the intentional use of mental and emotional tactics to manipulate or control another person’s actions. 
    Psychological coercion is distinct from other forms of persuasion because it involves the use of power and control to manipulate an individual into compliance. In many cases, the person being coerced may not even recognize the pressure being applied to them. This is due to the subtlety with which coercion often operates—it can take place in everyday interactions, with the perpetrator using psychological manipulation in a way that may seem harmless or even caring at first. Over time, however, the individual being manipulated becomes increasingly susceptible to the influence of the coercer, often leading to a loss of personal agency and a sense of powerlessness.

    In the summer of 2022, Lee Berger lost 50 pounds in order to wriggle though impossibly small openings in the Rising Star cave complex in South Africa—spaces where his team has been unearthing the remains of Homo naledi, a proto-human likely to have coexisted with Homo sapiens some 250,000 years ago. The lead researcher on the site, still Berger had never made his way into the dark, cramped, dangerous underground spaces where many of the naledi fossils had been found. Now he was ready to do so. Once inside the cave, Berger made shocking new discoveries that expand our understanding of this early hominid—discoveries that stand to alter our fundamental understanding of what makes us human. So what does it all mean? Join Berger on the adventure of a lifetime as he explores the Rising Star cave system and begins the complicated process of explaining these extraordinary finds—finds that force a rethinking of human evolution, and discoveries that Berger calls "the Rosetta stone of the human mind."
