Wie wir mit Ängsten und Panikattacken umgehen und Wachstum und Heilung ermöglichen. Wer unter Panikattacken und Angststörungen leidet, fühlt sich ausgeliefert, ohnmächtig, beschämt. Peter Beer, Bestsellerautor und Achtsamkeitslehrer, kennt diese belastenden Ausnahmezustände nur zu gut: Jahrelang kämpfte er selbst gegen Herzrasen, Atemnot und Schlaflosigkeit. Bis er erkannte: Die Angst ignorieren, lässt sie nicht verschwinden. Sie dagegen liebevoll annehmen, ist der erste Schritt zur Heilung.

Just as COVID revealed our nation to itself, so did it hold a mirror up to our relationships. In Love in the Time of Contagion, Laura Kipnis weaves (often hilariously) her own (ambivalent) coupled lockdown experiences together with those of others and sets them against a larger backdrop: the politics of the virus, economic disparities, changing gender relations, and the ongoing institutional crack-ups prompted by #MeToo and Black Lives Matter, mapping their effects on the everyday routines and occasional solaces of love and sex.

The Get to Principle guides the listener to an experiential understanding of the nature of life - how "the way you look at life is how you treat life, and the way you treat life is what life becomes". Instead of living in the past, Larkins encourages listeners to tap into the "something" happening in the moment and live in the field of possibility. Practicing this mindset can have a life-changing effect on what you become.

In 1964, American judge Potter Stewart famously said, ‘I can’t define pornography, but I know it when I see it.’ Over 50 years later, the reverberations of these words are still being felt across the world. Be it proposed porn bans, religious morality or women’s rights, the assumption is that porn has a single, knowable definition. But one man’s art is another woman’s erotica is another person’s sex tape.

Original and thought-provoking, the book draws from history, mythology, and literature, and unpacks the process of villainization through the character of the legendary villain, Duryodhana.

To call these unsettling times is an understatement: our political leaders are less and less respectable; in the realm of business, cheating, lying, and stealing are hazily defined; and in daily life, rapidly changing technology offers permission to act in ways inconceivable without it. Yet somehow this hasn't quite led to a complete free-for-all - people still draw lines around what is acceptable and what is not. Collinsworth sets out to understand how and why.

In der Partnerschaft geschieht nichts zufällig. Denn der Mensch, den wir in unser Leben gezogen haben, ist Teil unseres Lebensplans: Durch sein Verhalten spiegelt er uns die unsichtbaren Kräfte und unbewussten Automatismen, die unsere Beziehung und unser Leben lenken. Ruediger Schache zeigt, wie wir mithilfe des Spiegelprinzips verborgene Lebensmuster entschlüsseln und seelische Blockaden auflösen können.

A mid-century doctor's raw, unvarnished account of his own descent into madness, and his daughter's attempt to piece his life back together and make sense of her own. Texas-born and Harvard-educated, Dr. Perry Baird was a rising medical star in the late 1920s and 1930s. Early in his career, ahead of his time, he grew fascinated with identifying the biochemical root of manic depression, just as he began to suffer from it himself.
