  “An invaluable tool for anyone wanting to deepen their connection not only to themselves but also to nature and the spirits that are all around. Joey Morris provides practical advice and techniques that offer a diverse and different way of connecting to the three worlds that are associated with Celtic beliefs.” —Jane Matthews, director of the World Divination Association   A revolutionary take on hedge witchery that focuses on what it means to reconnect with the sacred hedge in a modern world, Celtic Hedge Witchery—A Modern Approach teaches the ways, ideas, and methods of the hedgerow, so they become accessible even to those who cannot visit the physical locations themselves. Delving into secret liminal spaces, Morris expands the knowledge and understanding of what it means to truly embody the witchcraft life. She connects readers to the wildcrafting elements of plants and natural remedies, realigning the soul to the vibrations of the spiritual ecosystem to reconnect with the Earth and all her spirits. In a time when modernity, technology, and disconnection from the land has caused so many of us to feel lost and disheartened, Morris helps foster our kinship with the land.   Weaving together Morris’s personal witchcraft gnosis, Celtic Hedge Witchery focuses on embracing the shadows within ourselves as a reflection of sacred spaces. Morris offers a revolutionary take on what it means to be a hedge witch in the modern era and empowers us to “come home” to both the Earth and to ourselves. Spell work, recipes, meditative guides, and evocative poetry help guide us in connecting with Celtic deities of land, sea, and sky and in crossing the hedge into the Otherworld. Learn how to connect to your own natural witchcraft.Find the sacred landscape within yourself. Connect with plant and animal spirit allies within the hedge and benefit from their spiritual power.

  ADVANCE PRAISE FOR EPILEPSY YOU'RE NOT ALONE 
  Inspired by her own battles, Chillemi wrote a book to give those coping with the disorder greater self-esteem, hope, and motivation. -- Lad - Star-Ledger Newspaper 
  Life deals us many hard blows that we often don't expect. I admire the fact that someone like Stacey Chillemi was thrown a curveball that may have knocked many of us down to the point where many of us may not have wanted to get back up, but she did. It wasn't easy, but she possesses a determined spirit that won't let her give up. For that reason, Stacey will go far and achieve whatever dreams she sets her mind to accomplish. Della Crews Reporter -- Editorial Review -Anchor / Talk Show Host /News 12 NJ, Review 
  An important, clearly-written book with everything I've been looking for, for over 50 years since I was diagnosed with epilepsy. In particular, I'm able to explain to others things about me that I never knew before, as well as recommend this book. Thanks to the author for sharing her knowledge with the world.

  Master Your Patience : A...

  Dr. Pedro Costa

  Preface by the Monk Coen. ”In this book, Pedro Costa makes an important analysis - an anamnesis of altered states of consciousness, and gives us guidelines, recipes, suggestions so that we can perceive our moods and develop the ability to deal with them. We will need patience a lot - in order to have physical, mental and social health. 
  We can identify the enemies of patience. Not only we can, but we should. Let us define them as the main causes of our daily unrest. First, the people. Second, time. Third, the situations. The fourth can be understood as the union of the first three: chaos, or ”people with no time in difficult situations”. Normally, when we lose patience completely we fall into this last stage of impatience. It`s this combination of factors that disturbs our peace. In this book, we describe a method so you always remember the ”good allies” of patience. A way to improve your life. It`s the ”4S” rule, a shortcut to memorizing it. Thus, the four allies of patience are: Silence, Sight, Smile and Sure. Easy, right? We`ll go into detail about this method and each of the four allies as well as the enemies of a complete change to a better life. We must also observe that the more we focus on the present, the more likely we are to find the allies of patience. The authors P. COSTA and G. COSTA bring a two-fold vision from different areas. First a broad approach of patience by medical science, linked to mindfulness, and on the other hand an approach by anthropology, closely related to the totality of the human being, including all of its dimensions.

  The Second History of Man

  In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
  The Second History of Man focuses mostly on bacteria and bacterial infections as the foundation, jumping off into Darwin and evolution, gin & tonics and the discovery of the first antibiotic to treat infection (and it wasn’t penicillin), visiting with those clever chaps who cook up drugs in the lab. We’ll call upon poets & poetry, celebrities like Frank Sinatra, the Rat Pack, and Bobby Darin, the classical music of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, the tragic story of World War II, Anne Frank and the Holocaust, tuberculosis, and a few of the rich & famous who suffered from TB, travelling back in time to the Black Death which wiped out 25 percent of humans on Earth, exploring the origins of a salon and a saloon, Columbus and the Age of Discovery, the lost generations of childhood, ending with the invention of the Internet.

  “Canada’s best-known voice of dissent.” — CBC
  		 
  “It’s time we listened to the Maude Barlows of the world.” — CNN
  		 
  In this timely book, Barlow counters the prevailing atmosphere of pessimism that surrounds us and offers lessons of hope that she has learned from a lifetime of activism. She has been a linchpin in three major movements in her life: second-wave feminism, the battle against free trade and globalization, and the global fight for water justice. From each of these she draws her lessons of hope, emphasizing that effective activism is not really about the goal, rather it is about building a movement and finding like-minded people to carry the load with you. Barlow knows firsthand how hard fighting for change can be. But she also knows that change does happen and that hope is the essential ingredient.

  Space to Grow - Unlocking the...

  Space is a place of unparalleled possibility for humanity, and it's undergoing a revolution. A wave of companies led by gutsy entrepreneurs are unlocking opportunities that fire the imagination. No, it's not hotels on Mars or day trips to orbit (yet), but it's an awe-inspiring transformation driven by innovative technologies, creative approaches, hard work, and—for the first time—market forces. Above all, this revolution is uncovering the simple but unfamiliar truth that space is a place: a place where countries, markets, and each of us can play a vital role in realizing some of our biggest, boldest dreams. 
   
   
   
  But we won't succeed through dreams alone. The space economy is just that—an economy—governed by the same laws of supply and demand that apply here on Earth. The authors, who teach a highly popular course on the topic at Harvard Business School, bring the revolution in space to life through players you know—like SpaceX and Blue Origin—and many you may not, like Astroscale, founded by a Japanese IT executive who quit his job to start a company to clean up space debris. They also bring to bear fundamental tools from economics to understand how the market in space is forming, how it's fast becoming a source of value for businesses across industries and for society as a whole, and how we can best ensure that its growth benefits us all.
