  Anger Management for Parents...

  What brought you to this recording was probably something specific. 
  A moment earlier today, or yesterday, or last week. A moment when you heard yourself yelling at your own child. When you used a tone you swore you would never use. When you saw a look on your child's face that you cannot stop replaying in your head. 
  And then the moment passed, and you were left standing there, looking at your child, and you knew. You had become the parent you swore you would never be. 
  Hear me clearly. 
  You are not a monster. You are not a bad parent. You are someone who loves their child desperately, and who keeps having moments when something inside takes over and behaves in ways that horrify you. 
  That gap between the parent you want to be and the parent you sometimes become is one of the most painful things a human being can carry. The shame of parental rage is unlike almost any other shame, because the witness to your worst moments is the person you love most in the world. 
  The reason willpower has failed you is not because you are weak. It is because parental rage almost never lives in the conscious mind. By the time you are yelling, your prefrontal cortex has gone offline. Your nervous system is operating on autopilot, running a pattern your body learned long before this moment, often before you were even old enough to remember. 
  You cannot use willpower in a state where the willpower part of your brain is offline. You can only change the body's pattern by reaching the layer where it lives. That is the subconscious. That is where this program goes. 
  For the next four hours you will not be lectured. You will not be shamed. You will be guided gently into the deeply relaxed state where your subconscious opens, and 200 carefully crafted affirmations will begin to retrain your nervous system at the level your reactivity actually fires.

  Myths of the World

  You have always meant to read the myths, but every book seems to assume you already know who Set is, or opens with a family tree the size of a wall. You want the stories themselves, told well, without homework.
  
  This world mythology collection gives you ten myths from ten traditions, each one a standalone story that opens in scene and introduces every god as they walk in. You steal fire beside Prometheus, watch Set turn on Osiris, ride with Cú Chulainn, follow Izanagi into the land of the dead and stand in the Aztec dark as the Fifth Sun is lit. Gods lie here, and gods lose. A comic tale follows a tragedy so the tone never settles into a drone, and each chapter ends with a short note on what the myth meant to the people who first told it.
  
  By the last chapter you know which mythology you want to explore next, and you have ten stories you can retell at dinner. Press play and start with the theft of fire.

  Shortly after the first Europeans arrived in seventeenth-century New England, they began to import Africans and capture the area's indigenous peoples as slaves. By the eve of the American Revolution, enslaved people comprised only about 4 percent of the population, but slavery had become instrumental to the region's economy and had shaped its cultural traditions. This story of slavery in New England has been little told. 
   
   
   
  In this concise yet comprehensive history, Jared Ross Hardesty focuses on the individual stories of enslaved people, bringing their experiences to life. He also explores larger issues such as the importance of slavery to the colonization of the region and to agriculture and industry, New England's deep connections to Caribbean plantation societies, and the significance of emancipation movements in the era of the American Revolution. Thoroughly researched and engagingly written, Black Lives, Native Lands, White Worlds is a must-listen for anyone interested in the history of New England.

  Bram Stoker - A Life from...

  Hourly History

  Irish author Bram Stoker is considered one of the masters of Gothic horror, in large part due to his creation of one of modern culture's most enduring villains, Count Dracula. Making a life first in civil service and then in the theater, Stoker drew upon his personal experiences, his deepest fears, and the larger-than-life people in his inner circle to create his timeless masterpiece, cementing his own immortality in the process. 
  It is unlikely that Stoker could have conceived, even in his wildest dreams, what an impact his undying villain would have on the world a century after his death. It served as inspiration time and again for countless adaptations in art, print, on stage, and on screen, dating back to the very beginnings of cinema. Since its initial publication, Dracula has been translated into every major language and studied by hundreds of writers, critics, and historians. In over 120 years, it has never been out of print.
