Sinopsis

Quick Gratitude Lift explores how brief daily gratitude practices can rewire the brain and enhance emotional well-being, even in hectic modern lives. Drawing from neuroscience, positive psychology, and behavioral science, the book reveals that small, intentional moments of thankfulness—like savoring a morning coffee or mentally acknowledging a kind gesture—can counteract the brain’s innate negativity bias. These micro-practices activate dopamine-producing regions and strengthen neural pathways linked to resilience, offering a practical antidote to stress and digital overwhelm. The book stands out by focusing on actionable strategies, such as pairing gratitude with routine tasks (“gratitude anchoring”) or dedicating 60 seconds to reflect on small joys, making positivity accessible without demanding extra time.

 
Structured in three clear sections, the guide first explains the science behind gratitude’s brain-altering power, including studies showing reduced cortisol levels in those who practice it consistently. Next, it tackles the evolutionary roots of negativity bias and how gratitude disrupts this cycle. Finally, a 30-day plan helps readers build sustainable habits, blending ancient wisdom (Stoicism, mindfulness) with modern behavioral economics. Unlike generic self-help advice, Quick Gratification Lift emphasizes depth over quantity—encouraging authentic appreciation rather than robotic list-making—and addresses critiques of positivity culture by stressing gratitude’s role in acknowledging hardship without denying it.

 
Balancing research with relatable anecdotes, the book offers a roadmap for transforming fleeting gratitude into lasting mental shifts. Its strength lies in merging rigor with realism, proving that even time-strapped individuals can cultivate resilience through science-backed micro-moments of thankfulness.

The Divine Feminist

Ceryn Rowntree

Our world is out of balance; so far out of balance we've almost forgotten there was ever an alternative.We know the age-old story of oppression of the Goddess in favour of a patriarchal force, and the ways that same story has played out over the centuries and generations to impact upon all those who identify as women. 
But what if we were to step back from that story and look at the ways it plays out more broadly too and how we - and our planet - are suffering as a result. 
Divine Feminism invites us to look deeper at this inequality, and consider the ways that all things considered "feminine" have been treated as less than over the centuries and generations. 
This book is your invitation to reconnect with those aspects within and for ourselves and the world; to find the sacred balance and flow that lies beyond the dualities society has inflicted upon us and allow them to bring you not only back to yourself, but to a life that helps you remind the world there is another way. 
Ceryn Rowntree is a Therapist, Coach, Medium and host of the Divine Feminist podcast. A practicing witch, she lives with her dog Lagertha in Northumberland, UK and is never happier than when the two of them are walking in the woods together.
