Sinopsis

Short Walk Gains challenges the notion that fitness requires grueling workouts, arguing that brief daily walks hold transformative power for physical and mental well-being. Centered on the science of consistency over intensity, the book reveals how 15–30 minutes of walking boosts energy, longevity, and mood by activating biological mechanisms like stress reduction and neuroplasticity. Backed by Mayo Clinic and American Heart Association studies, it dismantles cultural myths equating health with extreme effort, offering time-strapped readers an accessible entry point to sustainable change.

 
The book blends behavioral psychology and urban design insights to help readers integrate walks into modern life—think walking meetings or post-meal strolls. It explores how habit formation and environmental cues, like using staircases or pedometer apps, turn small efforts into lasting routines. Unique among fitness guides, it prioritizes sufficient exercise over optimization, showcasing real-world examples of improved health through incremental steps. Chapters progress from explaining walking’s metabolic benefits to advocating for societal shifts, such as walkable cities, that amplify individual choices.

 
By framing walking as both a personal practice and a public health solution, Short Walk Gains bridges self-help and community well-being. Its empathetic, jargon-free tone resonates with anyone skeptical of traditional fitness culture, proving that daily movement—not perfection—creates compounding rewards. Like planting seeds for a forest, the book shows how modest, consistent strides build a healthier life.

    Child of Earth and Starry Heaven

    L. Annette Binder’s Child of Earth and Starry Heaven is a memoir of motherhood, memory and memory loss. It looks to mythology, science, poetry, history, and fiction to find beauty and meaning even as  Annette’s mother succumbs to Alzheimer’s disease. Sad and joyous, the book is a meditation on what makes us human. 
    Kirkus notes that, "The author writes with the probing lyricism of a poet... Readers will admire Binder's refusal of sentimentality, observant eye and determination to grasp answers that seem always on the verge of evaporation. An illuminating and moving meditation on dementia. (Our Verdict: GET IT.)" Foreword Reviews concludes that, “The prose is infused with love, exhibiting the grace Binder found in others and for herself...Despite the book's inevitable ending, there is no sense of tragedy to be found—only kinship.” James Brown, author of Apology to the Young Addict, calls the book "a hauntingly powerful work of the sort only the very best of writers may hope to achieve in a lifetime," while Harvard neuroscientist Daniel Schacter, author of The Seven Sins of Memory, calls it "an essential book that both moves and informs.”

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    Angelfall by Susan Ee is set in a post-apocalyptic world where angels have destroyed civilization and now rule the earth. The story follows Penryn, a young woman who must navigate this dangerous new world to save her sister, Paige, after she is kidnapped. Penryn is forced to ally with Raffe, an injured angel, and they both struggle against their own kind as they attempt to survive. 
      
    The novel explores themes of survival, loyalty, and the corruption of power. It delves into the blurred lines between good and evil, as the angels are shown to be far from benevolent. The narrative highlights the desperation of humans fighting for survival against a seemingly superior force, and the complexities of relationships formed under extreme circumstances. The book also examines the concept of faith and the questioning of established beliefs.

    Introduction: Mindfulness and ADHD 
    Mindfulness is a form of meditation that can be practiced by anyone, and has been shown to have a number of benefits for mental health. For people with ADHD, mindfulness may help to improve focus and attention, relieve stress and anxiety, and regulate emotions. In this article, we will discuss the research on the benefits of mindfulness for ADHD, as well as ways to get started with mindfulness if you are interested in trying it out.Why have I recorded this audiobook about Mindfulness and ADHD? 
    This audiobook is about mindfulness and ADHD. I wrote it because I am passionate about both topics, and I think they can be complementary tools for managing ADHD. Mindfulness can help people become more aware of their thoughts and feelings, which can be helpful for managing ADHD symptoms. And ADHD can make it difficult to stay focused and organized, but mindfulness can help with that too.The role of Guided Meditations in Mindfulness 
    Traditionally, mindfulness has been achieved through practices such as yoga and meditation. Recently, however, there has been a rise in the use of guided meditations as a means to achieve mindfulness. While some practitioners may be hesitant to try guided meditations, there are many benefits to using them. First, guided meditations can be helpful for those who are new to mindfulness or meditation. They provide a structure for the practice and can make it easier to learn the techniques involved. Second, guided meditations can help people stay focused during their practice.The Guided Meditations in this AudiobookClassic Five HindrancesFocus and Eliminating DistractionsBeing Mindful and Present with Negative EmotionsWhen Your Mind Wanders

    When ‘I’ died, it was re-born; now in this world but not of it.  
    Beauty, it lies in the eyes of the beholder & love, it forever lives in a surrendered heart. It is a beautiful world for the eyes that see eternal life, even in death, beauty, even in the beast, the divine, even in the devil, the light, even in the dark. For a heart that never stops feeling the expanse of love, they are not two but one. Two sides of the same coin of duality, but the reality is beyond the duality. Oh what a freedom it is to be undefined by the limited self!  
    Being Selfish, is a dreamchaser’s journey back home, to the selfless self, to being the whole. A journey to discover the path of least resistance to one’s highest potential - love. For where else to experience the divine but in love; where else to find the whole but in love?  
    When ‘I am not’, I am love  
    Expressed though personal experiences, the science of the spirit & the path of love; a non-dual duality perspective on love, life & purpose of being. 11 meditative chapters of a transformative journey; that will leave you calmed & thought provoked at the same time.  
    Being selfish is not about love or meditation. It is about a higher perspective for a higher experience & expression of life. Higher in frequency. Take what you will, leave the rest.  
    Enjoy this union of words & sound !!!
