  Slow Time, Present Soul is a poetic and spiritual reflection written from a wheelchair, through the eyes of Jorge Madera. Living with Ataxia and speech impairment, the author embraces the beauty of stillness and the power of surrender. 
  In this moving audiobook, Madera explores the symbolic value of time, silence, and present living. This is not a medical memoir — it is a spiritual offering. A love letter to those living slowly, painfully, and truthfully. 
  Narrated in the voice of Adam, each chapter becomes a sacred pause — a moment of breath, presence, and deep listening. 
  Created in partnership with VIVIRLIFE.blog, Slow Time, Present Soul invites you to rest your mind, listen with your spirit, and find meaning in your slowest moments.

  Anaximander - Secrets of the...

  Anaximander’s legacy is vast and multifaceted, cementing his place as one of the pioneering figures in the history of philosophy and science. As a pre-Socratic philosopher from Miletus, Anaximander made significant contributions that laid the groundwork for future scientific and philosophical inquiry. 
  Anaximander is best known for his revolutionary ideas about the cosmos. He proposed that the universe originated from the apeiron, an indefinite or boundless substance, which he believed was the source of all things. This concept marked a significant departure from the mythological explanations of the cosmos prevalent in his time, suggesting instead a naturalistic origin of the universe. His cosmological model, which included the idea of a cylindrical Earth suspended in space, demonstrated a sophisticated understanding of celestial mechanics for his era. 
  Often regarded as the first true scientist, Anaximander applied rational and empirical approaches to understand natural phenomena. He was one of the first to propose that natural laws govern the world, an idea that forms the cornerstone of scientific inquiry. His work in biology suggested that life originated in water and that humans evolved from fish-like ancestors, anticipating evolutionary theory millennia before Darwin.

  An artist in every sense of the word, Lhasa de Sela wowed audiences around the globe with her multilingual songs and spellbinding performances, mixing together everything from Gypsy music to Mexican rancheras, Americana and jazz, chanson française, and South American folk melodies. In Canada, her album La Llorona won the Juno Award and went gold, and its follow-up, The Living Road, won a BBC World Music Award. Tragically, de Sela succumbed to breast cancer in 2010 at the age of thirty-seven after recording her final album, Lhasa. 
   
  Tracing de Sela’s unconventional life and introducing her to a new generation, Why Lhasa de Sela Matters is the first biography of this sophisticated creative icon. Raised in a hippie family traveling between the United States and Mexico in a converted school bus, de Sela developed an unquenchable curiosity, with equal affinities for the romantic, mystic, and cerebral. Becoming a sensation in Montreal and Europe, the trilingual singer rejected a conventional path to fame, joining her sisters’ circus troupe in France. Revealing the details of these and other experiences that inspired de Sela to write such vibrant, otherworldly music, Why Lhasa de Sela Matters sings with the spirit of this gifted firebrand.

  This is small copy of the introduction of the book: Welcome to the fascinating journey through the life and legacy of John Calvin, a remarkable figure in the annals of Christian history. In this book, we will delve into the life of a man whose ideas and teachings have left an indelible mark on Protestantism and the broader theological landscape. As a seasoned historian with over four decades of experience in studying the complexities of ancient, medieval, and modern history, I'm excited to be your guide through the life of John Calvin. This book is not just a recounting of events but a journey into the heart and mind of a French theologian and pastor who reshaped the religious landscape of his time. 
  John Calvin was born on July 10, 1509, in Noyon, Picardy, France. Little did the world know that this unassuming birth would lead to a seismic shift in the Christian faith. His journey encompasses pivotal moments in the Protestant Reformation, theological debates, and the establishment of Reformed Protestantism. 
  Throughout this book, we will explore the significant events that shaped Calvin's life. From his early education in Paris to his conversion to Protestantism and his influential work, "Institutes of the Christian Religion," we will walk alongside him as he faces exile, controversy, and the challenges of religious leadership in Geneva. Calvin's impact extended beyond his time, as his theological writings, commentaries, and letters continue to inspire and influence theologians, scholars, and believers around the world.

  Love Pain and Money - The Making...

  John Caudwell

  John Caudwell is one of Britain’s wealthiest, most successful – and most colourful – businessmen.  
   
  John was just six years old when he made a promise to himself that he would make enough money to give huge sums of it away to help his family and others who were struggling with poverty. 
   
  Born in a terraced house in Stoke-on-Trent, Caudwell went from bullied child to insecure trainee engineer at a local Michelin plant to self-made billionaire, befriending Sir Elton John, Eva Longoria, Hugh Grant and Robbie Williams, who have all taken part in his charity balls to raise money for Caudwell Children. 
   
  It was at a car auction in 1987, the height of Mrs Thatcher’s booming Britain,that he spotted the future. A mobile phone that came in an unwieldy suitcase. Within two decades Caudwell sold his Phones 4u business for £1.46 billion. 
   
  Love, Pain & Money: The Making of a Billionaire retraces the inspirational journey, from the very shaky beginnings of his phone empire to owning yachts, private planes, a fleet of top flight cars, a Jacobean mansion in the Midlands and London’s most expensive home (featured in a Channel 4 documentary). It’s a fascinating insight into the drive, ambition, focus and vision required to become a billionaire. 
   
  It is also a very British story. Caudwell is a man who – despite his vast wealth – still knows the price of a pint of milk, buys his clothes from Marks & Spencer and despite having swapped the Michelin plant for Michelin-starred restaurants and hotels, can often be found in a roadside B&B, eating home-made sandwiches after one of his many cycling expeditions. 
   
  And it is more than merely a rags to riches story. It is a tale of battling endless career misfortunes and overcoming a series of personal tragedies to rise to the top. Failure, disaster and horrendous private heartbreaks are all part of this tale of a troubled child who never won the approval of his father who died when John was a teenager. 
   
  Love, Pain & Money – The Making of a Billionaire is a tale of our times, full of humour, grit, lessons in business and an understanding of what it takes to succeed against all odds.
