Summary

Stress Responses explores the intricate link between chronic stress, brain chemistry, and addictive behaviors, offering pathways to cultivate mental resilience. The book unveils how prolonged stress can alter brain function, specifically compromising the reward system and executive functions, making individuals more susceptible to addiction. This highlights the critical need for integrated approaches to addiction prevention, addressing both the neurobiological and psychological dimensions of stress.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the fundamentals of stress physiology and the neurobiology of addiction. It then analyzes how chronic stress rewires neural circuits and examines the psychological factors mediating the relationship between stress and addiction. Finally, it presents strategies for enhancing mental resilience, such as mindfulness-based interventions and cognitive behavioral techniques, providing practical tools for stress reduction.

 
What sets this book apart is its unique integration of neurobiological and psychological perspectives, emphasizing the importance of addressing both brain function and behavior in managing stress and preventing addiction. By drawing upon research in neuroscience, psychology, and addiction studies, Stress Responses offers a comprehensive understanding of how to navigate the challenges of chronic stress and build lasting mental resilience.

Commander in Chief -...

Casey B. K. Dominguez

The constitutional balance of war powers has shifted from Congress to the president over time. Today, presidents broadly define their constitutional authority as commander in chief. In the nineteenth century, however, Congress was the institution that claimed and defended expansive war powers authority. This discrepancy raises important questions: How, specifically, did Congress define the boundaries between presidential and congressional war powers in the early republic? Did that definition change? 
 
 
 
Casey Dominguez's Commander in Chief systematically analyzes the authority that members of Congress ascribe to the president as commander in chief and the boundaries they put around that authority. 
 
 
 
Dominguez shows that for more than a century members of Congress defined the commander in chief's authority narrowly. But in a wave of nationalism during the Spanish-American War, members of Congress began to argue that Congress owed deference to the commander in chief. They also tended to argue that a president of their own party should have broad war powers, while the powers of a president in the other party should be defined narrowly. Together, these two dynamics suggest that the conditions for presidentially dominated modern constitutional war powers were set at the turn of the twentieth century, far earlier than is often acknowledged.

The Teachings Of The Maharishi...

Sripad Jagannatha Das

In 1992 Sripad Jagannatha Das was asked if he would do an exclusive interview with the Maharishi in Switzerland. The author readily agreed as the reclusive spiritual master almost never met the press and was embarking on an ambitious mass meditation program to purify vast areas of the United States. After a great deal of negotiation, the two finally got together on Christmas Eve and had a prolonged, stirring conversation that is documented here. In addition, the Maharishi was joined by the late world-class magician Doug Henning. Put together with a chronological, historical narration by Das, here is your chance to go one on one with one of the greatest spiritual minds of our time.

Here too is the story of The Beatles circa 1968, as they trekked to a remote, mysterious, and beautiful part of India known as Rishikesh or the valley of the saints. For thousands of years, this riverside valley has been a magnet for advanced yogis, mystics, and seekers of truth. In 1968, it was the absolute zenith of all of this and the pop world as well. It was here the Beatles wrote dozens of now-iconic songs while meditating at the feet of the lauded spiritual master. Along with many of the world's most celebrated people, the group once again led the way as innovators in not only music but innate spirituality as well.
Fifty years later, we remember the group's bold trek and artistic accomplishment in this inspirational audio biography from Beatles author and historian Geoffrey Giuliano. The Maharishi, the Beatles, and friends tell their own stories in this one-of-a-kind celebration of a magical time gone by.

Finally, here are several enlightening lectures by Maharishi all of which are surcharged with the sublime transcendental knowledge with are the masters perpetual stock in trade.

Grim Reaper - Myths Legends &...

KIV Books

“There are two certain things in this life; taxes and death.” - Benjamin Franklin 
While this may sound like any other famous quote, it is very true and practical. However, as certain as taxes may be, we will not focus on that in this book. Instead, we'll explore this dark and distasteful topic that everyone prefers to avoid: Death represented as the Grim Reaper! 
According to scientists, death occurs in all living organisms at some point and is the complete end of life mechanism. Unfortunately, this definition isn’t very descriptive. It doesn’t describe how it feels to die. 
What will we go through? 
What can we expect to see? 
What are our options? 
Where are we going after death? 
To answer such questions, artists in the 14th century came up with the concept of the grim reaper to try and understand death better by giving it a face. 
This book will explore everything you need to know about the grim reaper, who people believe he is, and the myths surrounding his existence.
