A Conversation Between AH Almaas...

A. H. Almaas, MD Daniel Siegel

Two Pioneers of Science and Spirit Expand the Frontiers of UnderstandingFor centuries, science and philosophy have drawn clear borders: scientists focused on the physical world, and philosophers studied the spiritual. Today that wall is coming down, thanks to innovative teachers like A. H. Almaas and Dr. Daniel Siegel, and the free flow of ideas and information has created a new renaissance of wisdom. On October 19, 2013, these two modern luminaries engaged in a conversation created to spark new ideas and insights about the nature of the mind and soul, the relationship between consciousness and the brain, and the mystery of personal transformation.Now you can experience this extraordinary meeting between A. H. Almaas, the creator of the breakthrough spiritual practice The Diamond Approach, and interpersonal neurobiologist Dr. Daniel Siegel, author of The Mindful Brain. In this daylong conversation, Siegel and Almaas investigate both the convergence and contrasts of spiritual and scientific ways of knowing ourselves. Focusing on the nature of personal transformation and the unfolding of identity, their wide-ranging discussion covers three major themes:Part One: The Mind and the Soul  •  The soul and the mind—how they are understood by both spiritual traditions and the latest neuroscience  •  The relationship between Being, Essence, the brain, and consciousness  •  How the mind relates to the brain, and the far-reaching implications of neuroplasticity—the ability of the mind to change our neural tissue  •  Why the soul is no longer off-limits to scientific inquiryPart Two: Self, Relationships, and Well-Being  •  What is the self and how does it develop?  •  How a sense of self emerges in life, in our relationships, and throughout development  •  How relational and psychological trauma impair the development of well-being and the unfolding of inner knowing across one's lifespan  •  The role of interpersonal and close, intimate relationships in the development of our identity  •The therapeutic-patient and student-teacher relationships—how these two models for wisdom transmission overlap and inform each otherPart Three: The Mystery of Transformation  •  What science and traditions say about the need for and nature of spiritual growth  •  The nature of meditation and how spiritual practices and scientific studies perceive the process of inner reflection  •  How fixed personality traits like narcissism or greed influence personal well-being and spiritual growth  •  What are the fundamental shared and contrasted views from science and spirituality on the nature of transformation?  •  Are there goals for transformation? If so, what are they?  •  How can we live a life of compassion, kindness, and discovery in the face of everyday stress and global change?

CLEAN 7 - Supercharge the Body’s...

Alejandro Junger

The New York Times bestselling doctor and author of Clean shows us that it doesn’t matter where you live, how old you are, or what symptoms you suffer from, in 7 days you can change the course of your health forever.
The culmination of over thirty years of research, education, and practice, Dr. Alejandro Junger’s revolutionary, seven-day program is based around the core principles of Functional Medicine, Ayurvedic Medicine, and Intermittent Fasting. Each one of these practices alone can have positive and lasting effects, but when used together, they propel the body to health, weight-loss, symptom-reversal, and restoration.
The air we breathe, the water we drink and bathe in, the skin products we use, the detergents we clean with, the medications we take, but mostly the foods we eat, are loaded with toxic chemicals that cause all kinds of dysfunctions. We know this, but we feel powerless to control the effects - constipation, body aches and pains, allergies, migraines, stubborn weight, sleeplessness, depression and anxiety to name a few. In time and left unabated, these symptoms develop into full blown diseases, many of them life-altering, but even in the best-case scenario, they leave us uncomfortable and unwell. CLEAN7 is the medically-proven seven-day answer to this toxic overload. The one-week program you’ll discover in this audiobook offers day-by-day, hour-by-hour guidance with easy-to-follow meal plans and delicious recipes that guarantee success.
“Everything you need to know is in these pages and within one week you will not only feel amazing, look better, be mentally sharper, but you will also have a firm understanding of which foods work best for you and which foods work against you. And you will be able to discover this for yourself without expensive and often inaccurate food allergy tests. CLEAN7 is the health jumpstart that you have been waiting for.” Alejandro Junger, MD
If you have been searching for a book or program to help you take that next step for your overall health, CLEAN7 is the answer. Discover what it truly means to be healthy.

Into the Darién

E.B. Harding

The Darién Gap—a lawless strip of jungle between Panama and Colombia—has swallowed countless travelers. Few who enter ever make it out. 
When a small charter plane crashes in the heart of this untamed wilderness, four survivors are left with no rescue, no supplies beyond what they can carry, and no choice but to trek through one of the most dangerous places on earth. 
Lena, a battle-hardened pilot, and her son Noah, an ambitious young co-pilot, were supposed to be running a routine flight. Alex, their wealthy passenger, claimed he was on a medical research expedition—but his obsession with a rare jungle orchid hints at another agenda. And Amaia, a quiet woman with a past she doesn’t share, seems to know far more about the land—and the people who control it—than she’s willing to admit. 
The jungle closes in fast. Days bring unbearable heat, venomous snakes, and rivers teeming with predators. Nights echo with the sound of something stalking them just beyond the firelight. Tensions splinter the group as distrust grows and survival becomes a brutal negotiation. 
Every step forward is a gamble. Every decision could be the one that gets them killed. And in the Darién, the most dangerous thing they’ll face might not be the jungle at all. 
Into The Darién is a gripping survival thriller of greed, loyalty, and endurance, where the secrets people keep are as deadly as the terrain.

White Pine - The Natural and...

John Pastor

America was built on white pine. From the 1600s through the Civil War and beyond, it was used to build the nation's ships and houses, barns, and bridges. Yet this popularity came at a cost: by the end of the nineteenth century, clear cutting had decimated much of America's white pine forests. In White Pine, ecologist and writer John Pastor takes listeners on walk through history, connecting the white pine forests that remain today to a legacy of destruction and renewal. 
 
 
 
Since the clear-cutting era, naturalists, foresters, and scientists have taken up the quest to restore the great white pine forests. White Pine follows this centuries-long endeavor, illuminating how the efforts shaped Americans' understanding of key scientific ideas, from forest succession to the importance of fire. Pastor shows us why restoring the vitality of these forests has not been simple: a host of other creatures depend on white pine and white pine depends on them. In weaving together cultural and natural history, White Pine celebrates the way humans are connected to the forest—and to the larger natural world. 
 
 
 
Today, white pine forests have begun to recover, but face the growing threat of climate change. White Pine shows us that hope for healthy forests lies in understanding the lessons of history, so that iconic species survives.
