The book highlights that the line between dedication and addiction has blurred, making individuals vulnerable to overworking and its consequences, such as burnout and mental exhaustion.

 
Readers gain insights into recognizing work addiction as a behavioral addiction with serious ramifications for health, relationships, and overall quality of life. The book examines the historical and societal context of work addiction, tracing its transformation from a virtue to a potential vice. It uses clinical studies, empirical research, and real-life examples, incorporating psychological assessments and physiological measures.

 
It provides a clear, progressive understanding of work addiction, beginning with diagnostic criteria and progressing to practical intervention strategies, including cognitive-behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices. Targeted toward individuals, mental health professionals, and HR managers, Work Addiction offers practical exercises and self-assessment tools to help readers take control of their work habits, manage stress, and improve their overall well-being.

    We’ve created a simple yet powerful method that combines mindfulness, healing affirmations, binaural beats, and creative visualization with carefully selected brainwave tracks—what we call Metaphysical Vibrations and Manifestation Frequencies—to help you communicate with clarity, speak with confidence, and express yourself with ease.

    What Is It Like to Be a Bat?

    Thomas Nagel

    "Consciousness is what makes the mind-body problem really intractable." So begins Thomas Nagel's classic 1974 essay "What is it Like to be a Bat?" Nagel's essay initiated the now widespread attention to consciousness as a central problem for philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience; it also influenced the recognition of the consciousness of nonhuman creatures as an important subject of study. Nagel argued that the essential subjectivity of conscious experience—what it is like for the creature undergoing it—means that reductionist theories of mind, which attempt to analyze it in physical terms, can never succeed. It follows that the physical sciences cannot provide a complete description of reality, and that the physical conception of objective reality must be transcended if science is going to comprehend the mind. 
     
     
     
    This edition reissues this classic and widely influential article on its fiftieth anniversary, along with a new preface discussing the origins and influence of the essay, as well as "Further Thoughts: The Psychophysical Nexus," a supplementary essay which describes Nagel's later thoughts about how to respond to the problem posed by "What Is It Like to Be a Bat?"

    Wait It Gets Worse - Love Death...

    "Tender, funny, and deeply uplifting, Wait, It Gets Worse is about more than facing the unexpected; it's an everywoman's guide to living a life that matters."
    
    —Arianna Huffington
    With a voice that is wise, irreverent, and filled with sharp humor, Wait, It Gets Worse is a story about following all the rules only to learn the hard way that control is a lie and an illusion, and that love will save your life.
    Lydia Slaby was thirty-three years old and had everything she believed would make her happy: three fancy private school degrees; a successful husband who was in the inner circles of Barack Obama's presidential campaign; a high-paying job as an attorney—even an enviable yoga practice. But under the surface Lydia's life was in free-fall. Her new marriage was one argument after another, she had a job she never wanted, and for some reason she had begun to rapidly lose weight and turn a strange shade of yellowish-green. When she made a doctor's appointment to talk about the toll of extreme stress, she was instead admitted with a diagnosis of lymphoma.
    As a cancer survivor, Lydia tries to piece back together her marriage, her career, and her own worth. She begins to rewrite her value as a human being and build her own version of faith until, finally, she is moving forward instead of back. It's an imperfect rebirth, but "perfection" is something she must abandon if she is to at last find the perspective that will open a new, calm, healthy life.

    Are you a survivor of childhood sexual abuse? Are you tired of the painful memories of your abuse resurfacing again and again? Do you feel shame, anger, worthlessness, fear, etc. related to the abuse? Have you ever felt that your life has no purpose? Or you are worthless? Have you ever believed that you deserved the abuse? That you'll never get over it? Or that you will never amount to anything now? Then this book is for you. 
    In this book, I share my own story, how I discovered the lies I was living, how I overcame them (along with many other detrimental effects of the abuse), and offer hope and direction along the road to recovery from childhood sexual abuse. My hope is that you can learn something from my story that may set you free from the bondage you are in and open your mind to the fact that a beautiful life is absolutely possible after abuse. 
    The most important takeaways I hope you get from this book are: knowing and believing the abuse was not your fault, happiness every single day and a beautiful, bright future is definitely possible, forgiveness is achievable, and you are simply amazing just the way you are today: All of these takeaways are 100% up to you, but don't worry, I will show you how to get there in the book and the included workbook. So, are you ready for positive change? Let's get to it!
