  Undaunted Hope - Stories of...

  Claudia Black, along with over a dozen world-renowned psychotherapists including Pia Mellody, Peter Levine, Patrick Carnes, Richard Schwartz, Resmaa Menakem, and Tian Dayton, provides clinical, human-focused insights on healing, treatment, and recovery. 
  People today are struggling with an unprecedented rise in mental health concerns such as depression, eating disorders, substance abuse, behavioral addictions, suicide, and more. The greatest barriers to getting help are their shame, their self-loathing, and the belief that their situation is hopeless. Undaunted Hope destigmatizes these disorders and invites readers to take the first step to help: asking for it.  
  Through the narratives of twenty-one alumni from Meadows Behavioral Healthcare, world-renowned treatment facilities, readers may see themselves in parts of the stories—and ultimately find the courage to ask for help. Each storyteller reveals the origins of their struggles, the chaotic course of events leading up to treatment, what help entailed, and how their lives became richer, fuller, and more hopeful once they were willing to take the first step toward healing.  
  This urgent and timely book presents the stories of the therapeutic work that occurs in Meadows' facilities, recognizing that trauma is most often the underlying issue to people’s struggles. The groundbreaking work at The Meadows has been validated by the landmark Adverse Childhood Experience Study (ACEs) carried out by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for the past twenty-five years. These studies repetitively demonstrate the relationship of various traumas to mental health, substance abuse, and behavioral healthcare problems.

  Shadows of Thought and Fire –...

  Martin K. Ettington

  I first read about Thoughtforms many years ago. The concept is that you can create a “focused thought” with certain properties from your own thoughts and force of will.  
  It is said that conscious entities can also be created in this manner. 
  This concept has been around for thousands of years. Tulpas and Jinn also seem to be creations of thought in many cases. 
  This book goes into the histories of Jinns, Tulpas, and Thoughtforms which I think are all related and mostly incarnations of our conscious visualizations and force of will.  
  Many individual sightings and experiences are included. 
  This book also includes a Tulpa creation technique near the end which you should find very interesting. 
  Understanding all of these also leads to being able to create objects of power like powerful talismans, rings or other objects.

  Big Mall - Shopping for Meaning

  Kate Black

  A phenomenology of the mall: If the mall makes us feel bad, why do we keep going back? In a world poisoned by capitalism, is shopping what makes life worth living?
  		 
  In less than a century, the shopping mall has morphed from a blueprint for a socialist utopia to something else entirely: a home to disaffected mallrats and depressed zoo animals, a sensory overload and consumerist trap.
  		 
  Kate Black grew up in North America’s largest mall: West Edmonton Mall — a mall on steroids. It’s the site of a notoriously lethal rave for teenagers, a fatal rollercoaster accident, and more than one gun-range suicide; it’s where oil field workers reap the social mobility of a boom-and-bust economy, the impossibly large structure where teens attempt to invent themselves in dark Hollister sales racks and weird horny escapades in the indoor waterpark. It’s a place people love to hate and hate to love — a site of pleasure and pain, of death and violence, of (sub)urban legend.
  		 
  Can malls tell us something important about who we are? Blending a history of shopping with a story of coming-of-age in North America’s largest and strangest mall, Big Mall nvestigates how these structures have become the ultimate symbol of late-capitalist dread — and, surprisingly, a subversive site of hope. Ultimately, a close look at the mall reveals clues to how a good life in these times is possible.
  		 
  “Speaking as a child of PacSun and Hot Topic myself, Big Mall is like a madeleine dipped in Orange Julius. Like a mall, the book itself has a lot of everything, a sublime mix of memoir, history, and cultural criticism. Kate Black is a learned Virgil in the consumerist Inferno, always avoiding the obvious and leading us to surprising connections — oil, suicide, Reddit, squatters, dolphins. Whether malls fill you with nostalgia or horror, this book will change your relationship to the world we've constructed around us.” — Tony Tulathimutte, author of Private Citizens
  		 
  “Before there was Instagram, there was the mall. But what happens when a seasonless, tacky, fantasyland is all you knew growing up? How does one embrace a genuinely fake experience? Or to be more precise, a fake but genuine experience? Kate Black’s Big Mall is a smart, sentimental, and perspective-shifting look at the outsized role that big malls play in modern life. Love ’em or hate ’em, one thing’s for sure: after reading this book, you’ll never look at a mall in the same way again.” — Ziya Tong, Science broadcaster & author of The Reality Bubble

  Tank Battles of the Cold War...

  As Anthony Tucker-Jones shows in this wide-ranging history, for most of the Cold War the tank retained its pre-eminence on the battlefield. The Arab-Israeli wars witnessed some of the biggest tank battles of all time, and tanks played key roles in conflicts in Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan as well as in the Iran-Iraq War and the wars fought between India and Pakistan. But then in the mid-1960s anti-tank weapons became ever deadlier and the Mechanized Infantry Fighting Vehicle (MIFV), which was designed to support infantry and fight tanks, emerged and the heyday of the tank was over. 
   
   
   
  Chapters cover each major phase in the evolution of the tank and of tank warfare during the period, from the battles fought in the late 1940s and 1950s with World War II armored vehicles like the T-34 and the Sherman, through to the designs common in the 1960s and 1970s like the T-55, Centurion, Challenger, and M60 Patton, to the confrontation between the M1 Abrams and the T-72 during the Gulf War in 1991.

  Finding Focus in ADHD: Four Guided Meditations 
  Finding Focus in ADHD: Four Guided Meditations is a book written by transcendental arts expert, Deepak Bhosle, that provides people with ADHD four guided meditations to increase focus and attention skills. The meditations are easy to follow and can be done in just a few minutes a day (they range from 5 to 15 minutes). 
  The benefit of guided meditations  
  Meditation is an excellent way to focus and calm the mind. It has many benefits, such as reducing stress and anxiety, improving sleep and increasing productivity. While it's easy to get started with meditation on your own, guided meditations can be a great way to increase the effectiveness of your practice. Guided meditations can help you stay focused and connected to your breath, which can make it easier to achieve a state of mindfulness. 
  Gradually increase your practice 
  In this audiobook, we bring you four guided meditations to help improve your focus and attention, designed specifically for people with ADHD. The best way to do this is to start off with a daily practice of the shorter meditations (5 minutes), and gradually over the course of 4-8 weeks, begin a daily practice of the longer meditations (10-15 minutes). We have included some bonus activities in some of the guided meditations, and you will benefit from incorporating these into your daily practice, especially from the 4 weeks+ mark.
