  Hedonism - The Pursuit and...

  Hedonism, at its core, is the philosophy that pleasure is the highest good and the ultimate goal of human life. Its allure lies in the simplicity of its premise: that the pursuit of pleasure, whether physical, emotional, or intellectual, is essential to living a fulfilling life. This view is not just a modern indulgence but has deep roots in the history of philosophy, tracing back to the ancient Greeks, who were the first to systematically explore the nature of pleasure and its role in human existence. 
  The term “hedonism” derives from the Greek word hēdonē, meaning pleasure, and throughout history, philosophers have debated whether this pursuit is inherently selfish or whether it can contribute to the greater good. The Greek philosopher Aristippus of Cyrene is often credited with being one of the first to advocate for a form of hedonism, suggesting that the ability to master one’s pleasures was the key to happiness. On the other hand, Epicurus, another Greek philosopher, argued that the pursuit of simple pleasures, rather than indulgence in excess, leads to the greatest happiness. These foundational ideas have sparked ongoing discussions about the nature of pleasure and how it fits into the human quest for meaning. 
  In the centuries that followed, hedonism evolved in different directions. During the Enlightenment, thinkers like Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill reinterpreted hedonism through the lens of utilitarianism, positing that the greatest happiness of the greatest number should be the guiding principle of ethical decision-making. Today, hedonism is often understood not only as a personal pursuit of pleasure but also as a cultural phenomenon that shapes modern consumerism, self-care movements, and even digital experiences.

  Did you know that Viking-age Swedes were the founding dynasty of what eventually became Russia? 
   
  In contrast to their Danish and Norwegian cousins, Swedish Vikings traveled east rather than west in search of riches, land, and power. The extensive river systems of Russia provided economic and military "super-highways" to the adventurers from the north, who journeyed down them all the way to the Black Sea and Constantinople in search of fame and riches.
   
  The rise in TV shows and movies has renewed people's interest in Vikings, but the Swedish Vikings have been notably absent from these accounts. In Captivating History's History of Sweden, you will learn more about these Swedish adventurers, along with other parts of Sweden's fascinating history.
   
  In this book, you will discover:
  
  -  The Swedes' fierce struggle to gain independence 
  -  The "Father of Sweden," King Gustav Vasa, and his dynasty spawned some of the greatest military minds in Europe 
  -  How the Swedish Empire achieved success and expanded as far as North America 
  -  Sweden's revolutionary war tactics and how they led to victories on the battlefield 
  -  Why Sweden adopted its famous policy of neutrality 
  -  The hero Raoul Wallenberg and his role in WWII

  The 7 Deadly Sins -...

  Seven titles in one book. All the seven deadly sins explained and analyzed. 
  Book 1: Envy 
  Envy is often something we point out in others, but if we face the facts and admit to being imperfect, finding it in ourselves can actually improve our lives, our attitude, and our happiness. When we figure out where our feelings are wrong, we can take action and change our mindset. So many people think of envy as a sin against others, but actually, we are doing this to ourselves. We create our own misery by looking at others and comparing ourselves to them. 
  Book 2: Gluttony 
  Gluttony has been mistaken for many things in the past. Some people judge others for being fat. Some are confused as to how far to go when indulging themselves in delicious foods. And others wonder if self-discipline in general is the underlying commandment that is related to the sin of gluttony. Understanding the sin, and the essence of it, can be life changing. It can mean the difference between a constant nagging feeling or urge to have more, and on the other hand, a divine feeling of contentment and a smile on your face. 
  Book 3: Greed 
  We’ve heard it before: The love of money is the root of all evil. Greed, or avarice, has caused many to “err from the faith” according to Paul, who wrote to Timothy. “Flee these things,” he said, urging him—and all of us—to concentrate on Christlike qualities instead of worldly possessions, and on treasures in heaven, not on earth. Greed is everywhere. It is almost unavoidable. If we let go of the possessions that so easily possess us, we can focus more on God and His purposes. 
    
  Other vices include lust, sloth, wrath, and pride. Listen to this eye-opening audiobook now!

  This book is an exploration of intentional listening as an essential skill for coaches. It introduces the Head, Heart, and Hands Listening model as a vital tool to amplify effective listening in coaching practice. 
   
   
   
  Accessible and applicable, the book explores the three listening modalities of Head, Heart, and Hands as active, though largely unconscious, lenses that inform the potency of our listening. Dakin-Neal argues that once coaches identify "how" they listen, they can assist their clients in more targeted ways to positively impact their personal and professional lives. Chapters are divided into the three listening modalities, Head, Heart, and Hands, and are filled with case studies, stories, reflective questions, and exercises from the author's experience to help coaches strengthen their listening skills. The book also includes a comprehensive listening assessment for coaches to use in practice. 
   
   
   
  This book is essential for coaches in practice and in training as well as organizational psychologists, HR professionals, and those working within corporations.
