  Do fears, excessive worries and anxiety prevent your child from living what should be the best and most carefree years of their life? 
  Wouldn't it be nice if you could just flip a switch and make his or her shyness disappear? 
  Have the various strategies that you have used been useless, leaving you with the feeling that you have missed something? 
  I recommend that you read and have your child read this manual if, in the past three months, he has been overwhelmed by:Nervousness and irritability: adolescents may feel nervous or angry for no reason.Sleep disturbances: difficulty falling asleep, interrupted or shallow sleep or early awakening or, conversely, hypersomnia, or the need to sleep more than necessary.Outbursts of anger: sometimes girls or boys, even quiet or introverted ones, may have outbursts of anger or fits of tears for no apparent reason.Distractibility, loss of contact with the outside world: sometimes, some adolescents are so caught up in their malaise that they appear extremely disoriented or detached from reality.Depressed mood, negativity, pessimism and low self-esteem.Physical symptoms: anxiety in adolescence often manifests itself mainly through the body. Headache, stomach pain, abdominal pain, chest pain, diarrhoea, muscle aches and the need to urinate frequently are just some of the most common somatic symptoms. 
  Unlike other publications, this book isn't just for teens. Anyone can use it. And it doesn't read like a college course, it'll let you know what's going on in a teenager's head. 
  In reality, there is no aspect of your life in which this workbook is not helpful. So why let shyness and anxiety rule your life any more?

  A nation in mourning. A city recovering. A unique moment in history when people came together to rebuild hope. 
  When an unimaginable crisis emerged, politically polarized Oregon found a common mission. Three weeks after the September 11th terrorist attacks, airplanes were empty and the New York economy was tanking. So one thousand Freedom Fliers committed to taking sixty-two flights to NYC and infusing local businesses with revenue to show their unwavering support. 
  Arriving en masse to the grief-filled streets, Oregonians from diverse backgrounds and social statuses came to make a difference in their fellow Americans' lives. But beyond the much-needed economic boost, these unsung heroes discovered themselves providing something even more essential... their open hearts. 
  Sally Ruth Bourrie, freelance writer for the Chicago Tribune and The Boston Globe, witnessed firsthand this remarkable phenomenon sparked by the 2001 Flight for Freedom. 
  In a comprehensive and poignant account, she brings this extraordinary and largely unknown story vividly to life. In Oregon Loves New York, you'll discover: 
  - How everyday people can make a huge difference by being present for others in times of need 
  -Ways a divided community can put aside politics, ideologies, and disagreements to achieve amazing things together 
  - Almost 700 pages of tales of courage and humanity, including 200 full-color photographs, 100 personal interviews, 20 years of research, and archival news pieces now lost to history 
  - Heart-touching examples of the healing power of person-to-person contact and how we as a nation can honor each other 
  - Insight into a little-known event with a huge impact, positive messages of hope, and much, much more!

  From Pulpit to Podium to Policy

  Dr. Richard Tobias PhD

  Today, many fundamentalist Christian members of Congress find it simpler and more comforting to disregard complexity and science when creating US law and, instead, wield faith like a righteous sword. In the making of new legislation, these Congressmen go so far as to cite biblical events, claiming, for instance, that the Great Flood was an example of climate change, although, “…that certainly wasn’t because mankind had overdeveloped hydrocarbon energy.” These Christian lawmakers even make frequent allusions to being ‘led by’ or ‘inspired by’ God when deciding legal policies and ignore scientific findings that contradict their faith in favor of legislation that benefits powerful corporations. 
  "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..." Thus reads the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. Yet, as Dr. Richard Tobias argues in From Pulpit to Podium Policy, decisions by the Supreme Court and repeated opposition by strong religious Congressional members against the separation of church and state put the longstanding ideals of democracy in danger.

  After a brutal assault in NYC, Haely moves to San Francisco to try and reinvent herself. Unfortunately, she isn’t prepared to teach in the men’s county jail, and all the inmates know it. Drawn into a reckless romance with Ghost, a charming but calculating burglar she meets inside, Haely's obsession with uncovering his disturbing secrets thrusts her into a waking nightmare of drugs and violence, from which she may not survive. 
  Meanwhile in Prague, frat boy Otto Tepidstein grapples with the emotional fallout of having been cheated on. His quest for unattainable justice leads him down a Kafka-esque rabbit hole into Prague's gritty underworld of sexual depravity. There he has a chance encounter with Milka, a phlebotomist seemingly out of place in the world of sex work. 
  When an unsettling video surfaces on a porn site, depicting unspeakable acts, the twisted connections between these four troubled souls leads each one to their own irreversible fate. 
  In this lurid tale, based on true events, we discover that no matter our backgrounds, we all stand on the brink—one poor choice away from an abyss of self-destruction from which there is no return. As Nietzsche said, "sometimes you stare into the hole, and sometimes the hole stares back."

  Timely and essential, The Reset explores the most recent research into trauma, chronic disorders, and behavioral health issues facing Americans in the 21st Century. With a special tone of advocacy for Veterans, researcher and writer Melina Bricker explores the remarkable potential of psychedelic-assisted therapy within the American zeitgeist of consumerism, societal trauma, and broken methods of care facing the public today.
