Unlearning Shame
A powerful personal manifesto against shame that empowers us and calls us to action - from the author of Unmasking Autism
How many times a day do you feel shame? Struggling to pay the bills; buying a top made in a sweatshop; reading the news and feeling - yet again - a powerlessness to the point of apathy?
In today's self-blame culture, it often feels impossible not to carry shame about the choices we make and the values by which we live. When the political is so personal, and the personal is so political, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the sense that we're not doing enough - maybe, even, that we're not enough.
In this bold and transformative manifesto, social psychologist and author of Unmasking Autism Dr Devon Price takes an in-depth look at shame and the role it plays in our lives. Systemic Shame traps us into fighting unwinnable battles and judging others for their failures. But it especially affects those who are already vulnerable because they're carrying shame from a difficult past or a complicated sense of self-esteem. This new, radically positive book shows us that there is no such thing as becoming "good enough" to be deserving of love; that we must claim acceptance for ourselves.
Blending the latest social psychology, personal insights and empowering practical exercises, Unlearning Shame is a radical guide to overcoming self-blame and embracing a new culture - one where we take control of the choices we make and the future we create.
Rest Is Resistance
Reclaim power, rest and heal from grind culture
Rest is Resistance is a call-to-action for anyone suffering from the toxic urgency of modern-day life. It centres around the systemic issues that cause us to overwork, and ultimately burn out, and offers liberation through rest. In its simplest form, rest becomes an act of resistance and a reclaiming of power because it disrupts and pushes back against capitalism and white supremacy. Slowing down moves us away from trying to operate at machine levels of productivity, to make us all more human. In this fierce and tender manifesto, Tricia Hersey elevates rest as a divine right, and paves the way towards a more well-rested life that empowers imagination, invention and healing. Divided into four sections, Rest is Resistance explains Tricia's philosophy and methods, and includes both storytelling and practical advice. It will offer you the guidance and context to craft a rest practice for long-term health, both within yourself and society as a whole.

Kruh dvanácti ctností
Jednou z možností sebezdokonalování je pěstování dvanácti ctností: odvahy, mlčenlivosti, velkomyslnosti atd. Rudolf Steiner tento kruh ctností, vycházející ze starších tradic, doplnil a povýšil na novou úroveň: ukázal, v jakou vlastnost se ta která ctnost při pravidelném cvičení proměňuje. Autoři knihy, Jan Dostal a Herbert Witzenmann, přinášejí podněty, jak konkrétně na jednotlivých ctnostech a jejich rozvíjení a prohlubování pracovat.
InnSaei
What does it mean? How do you say it? Why does it relate to me?
Simply put, InnSaei (pronounced 'in-sy-eh') is the Icelandic word for intuition. It means the sea within (the flow of our unconscious mind), to see within (how we introspect), and to see from the inside out (how we navigate the world). InnSaei exists within all of us.
We live in a world dominated by an overload of information, workplace burnout, big changes and the continuing effects of climate change. It's easy to feel lost, disconnected or without a purpose. If you relate to these feelings, then learning about InnSaei is the first step to reconnecting with yourself and the environment.
Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir explains how aligning with the sea within will help you to make more informed decisions and welcome creativity and wonder back into your life; learning to see within will improve your self-awareness, empathy and tolerance; and seeing from the inside out will empower you to make change around you and live a more fulfilled life.
With a mix of expert knowledge, practical exercises and some of the author's personal experiences, join Hrund as she takes us on a journey to harness our InnSaei so we may transform our lives and re-establish our place in the world.
The Future Is Greater
Success life coach Maxine Nwaneri shows women, no matter what age, how to escape the motherhood penalty, arrest ten time thieves, reduce family chaos and thrive in life.
A job? An obligation? A career? A choice? A penalty?
Well-intended workplace policies and initiatives have failed to successfully help mothers and mothers to be cope with work life balance. Countless women get “lost” in the juggling act of working motherhood that often leaves them guilty, unfulfilled and failing on all fronts.
Women do three times more unpaid work at home than their male partners. The pandemic amplified this and saw 1.5 billion children around the world homeschooled with mothers shouldering most of the weight around education and home care.
These pressures have led to one in three working mothers scaling back their careers or leaving the workforce entirely.
An issue governments and employers are failing to solve, The Future is Greater helps readers tap into the powerful, but less mentioned source of answers for this conundrum – mothers and women themselves. In Mother Maxine discusses the issue of motherhood penalty verses fatherhood premium, and how this affects so many women’s lives and decisions women make long before they ever have children.
Every woman faces different challenges, motivations, and dreams. Leading readers through a tried and tested ten step process involving amongst others the following tips:
• decide to make a change
• create a powerful and exciting vision for your life
• adopt the powerful C.R.I.S.I.S success plan created by Maxine
• build resilience and avoid comparison traps
• identify time wasters and identify thieves
Using client testimonials and a journey that took Maxine from homelessness, addiction, academic failure in her teens, to becoming an award-winning student and Cambridge graduate, Maxine illustrates that time for what may seem like the most important commitments is gained by taking time to care first for oneself.
The Visual Detox

She gives us new tools to think critically about images, combat information overload and participate more in the visual world around us by engaging with the art and content that improves our day-to-day experiences online, at work, in our homes and in public spaces.
Drawing on science and insightful case studies, she shows us how to:
· learn the type of thinker you are (spatial, visual, verbal?);
· understand our brains’ interpretation of visual language;
· decode the subtle negative messages in popular culture;
· devise tiny hacks to block out the online noise
· curate your surroundings to create soothing spaces.
This handy guide to visual decluttering will empower you to reclaim your focus, peace of mind and sense of wonder.

Look
A powerful exploration of how we pay attention that will transform the ways we connect with one another – at home, at work, and beyond.
Paying attention is a crucial human skill, yet many of us have forgotten how to listen carefully and observe intentionally. Deluged by social media and hobbled by the increasing social isolation it fosters, we need to rediscover the deeply human ways we connect with others.
Christian Madsbjerg, a philosopher and entrepreneur, understands this dilemma. To counteract it, he began a course at The New School in New York City called Human Observation, which lays out the ways that we can learn to pay attention more effectively. The course has been hugely popular since its inception, with hundreds of students filling waiting lists.
In Look, Madsbjerg sets out the key observational skills needed to show how we can recapture our ability to pay attention. Drawing from philosophy, science, the visual arts, and his own life, he offers both practical insights and a range of tools for experiencing the world with greater richness and texture. The result is a dynamic approach to rethinking observation that helps all of us to see with more empathy, accuracy, and connection to others.
Bittersweet
Whether you long for the partner who broke up with you, or the one you dream of meeting; whether you hunger for the happy childhood you'll never have, or for the divine; whether you yearn for a lost person, an unborn child, the fountain of youth, or unconditional love: These are all manifestations of the same great ache...
In this inspiring and genre-bending work, Susan Cain - author of the international bestseller Quiet - shows us the power of a "bittersweet" outlook: the overlooked tendency to states of longing and poignancy, and a piercing joy at the beauty of the world.
Embracing the bittersweet means understanding that light and dark, birth and death - bitter and sweet - are forever paired, and that by recognising this we can find the true path to creativity and connection.
Bringing to light the ideas of artists, writers and thinkers from all over the world, and her own quest for answers over the course of a lifetime, Susan Cain fundamentally shifts our understanding of life by teaching us how to turn sorrow into an enriching superpower.
Badass Habits
New York Times best-selling author Jen Sincero gets to the core of transformation: habits - breaking, making, understanding, and sticking with them like you've never stuck before.
Badass Habits is a eureka-sparking, easy-to-digest look at how our habits make us who we are, from the measly moments that happen in private to the resolutions we loudly broadcast (and, erm, often don't keep) on social media.
Habit busting and building goes way beyond becoming a dedicated flosser or never showing up late again—our habits reveal our unmet desires, the gaps in our boundaries, our level of self-awareness, and our unconscious beliefs and fears. Badass Habits features Jen's trademark hilarious voice and offers a much-needed fresh take on the conventional wisdom and science that shape the optimism (or pessimism?) around the age-old topic of habits.
The book includes enlightening interviews with people who've successfully strengthened their discipline backbones, new perspective on how to train our brains to become our best selves, and offers a simple, 21 day, step-by-step guide for ditching habits that don't serve us and developing the habits we deem most important.
Habits shouldn't be impossible to reset—and with healthy boundaries, knowledge of—and permission to go after—our desires, and an easy to implement plan of action, we can make any new goal a joyful habit.
Women Who Run With The Wolves
'Anyone who can read should read this book' Maya Angelou
'Estes points to storytelling, our ancient narratives, as a way for women to reconnect to the Wild Woman all women have within themselves, but have lost' Emma Watson
Go out in the woods, go out. If you don't go out in the woods nothing will ever happen and your life will never begin.
Within every woman, there lies a powerful force of energy, creativity and self-knowing: their wild woman. For centuries, she has been repressed by a male-orientated value system that trivialises her emotions. Until now.
With a combination of time-honoured stories, myths, fairy tales and casework, this is the feminist classic loved by over 2 million women, that will set you on a beautiful path to unleash your inner wild.
