  How can we rethink teaching practices to include and engage the whole student? What would student experience look like if we integrated silence and feeling with empirical analysis? Tuning the Student Mind is the story of one teacher's attempt to answer these questions by creating an innovative college course that marries the spiritual and the theoretical, integrating meditation and self-reflection with more conventional academic curriculum. The book follows Molly Beauregard and her students on their intellectual and spiritual journey over the course of a semester in her class, "Consciousness, Creativity, and Identity." Interweaving personal stories, student writing, and Beauregard's responses, along with recommendations for further reading and a research appendix, it makes the case for the transformative power of consciousness-centered education. Written in a warm, engaging voice that reflects Beauregard's teaching style, Tuning the Student Mind provides an accessible, step-by-step template for other educators, while inviting readers more broadly to reconnect with the joy of learning in and beyond the classroom.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  "A Clockwork Orange" by Anthony Burgess tells the story of Alex, a young man who engages in acts of ultra-violence with his "droogs." The story is set in a dystopian society where the government tries to control crime through extreme methods. Alex is eventually imprisoned and subjected to the Ludovico Technique, an experiment designed to condition him to abhor violence. 
    
  The book explores themes of free will, morality, and the nature of good and evil. It follows Alex's journey as he is transformed into something other than human, highlighting the dangers of trying to impose goodness by removing the capacity for choice. After his "rehabilitation," Alex's return to society illustrates that his fundamental nature remains, raising questions about the effectiveness of such methods.

  The Worst Thing We've Ever Done...

  In May of 1976, twenty-four-year-old Carol Menaker was impaneled with eleven others on a jury in the trial of Freddy Burton, a young Black prison inmate charged with the grisly murders of two white wardens inside Philadelphia's Holmesburg Prison. After being sequestered for twenty-one days, the jury voted to convict Mr. Burton, who was then sentenced to life in prison without parole. 
   
   
   
  For more than forty years, Menaker did what she could to put the intensely emotional experience of the sequestration and trial behind her, rarely speaking of it to others and avoiding jury service when at all possible. But the arrival of a jury summons at her home in Northern California in 2017 set her on a path to unravel the painful experience of sequestration and finally ask the question: What ever happened to Freddy Burton—and is it possible that my youth and white privilege were what led me to convict him of murder? 
   
   
   
  The Worst Thing We've Ever Done is Menaker's inspirational account of journeying back in time to uncover the personal bias that may have led her to judge someone whose shoes she never could have walked in.

  Capitalism Is Dead Long Live...

  The era of capitalist uncertainty is over—structured success is the future. 
  For generations, society has been trapped in the illusion that free markets create opportunity, individual ambition leads to wealth, and financial security can be achieved through hard work and risk-taking. But history has proven otherwise—capitalism breeds instability, economic collapse, and an ever-widening wealth gap. 
  This book exposes the myth of self-made success, the failures of uncontrolled markets, and the need for a structured economic system where prosperity is not a gamble but a guarantee. A.A. Castor presents a bold and direct manifesto for transitioning into a state-controlled model of wealth, where competition is eliminated, financial uncertainty is erased, and every citizen is assigned an economic role designed for national success. 
  What You'll Learn: 
  ✔ Why capitalism has failed and how its chaotic nature leads to long-term economic ruin. 
  ✔ How structured planning guarantees success by eliminating speculation and financial mismanagement. 
  ✔ The power of AI-driven economic control in creating efficient career placement and wealth distribution. 
  ✔ Why absolute obedience to structure ensures financial security for every citizen. 
  ✔ How controlled affirmations rewire the mind for discipline, loyalty, and permanent prosperity. 
  The time for free-market illusions is over. The future is planned, structured, and secured. This book is a directive—not a debate. Those who follow the new road to wealth will thrive. Those who resist will be left behind.
