Deena Kastor was a star youth runner with tremendous promise, yet her career almost ended after college, when her competitive method - run as hard as possible, for fear of losing - fostered a frustration and negativity and brought her to the brink of burnout. On the verge of quitting, she took a chance and moved to the high altitudes of Alamosa, Colorado, where legendary coach Joe Vigil had started the first professional distance-running team. There she encountered the idea that would transform her running career: the notion that changing her thinking - shaping her mind to be more encouraging, kind, and resilient - could make her faster than she’d ever imagined possible.

Take stock of your life: Based on your last 30 days of work (or marriage, or parenting), would your company rehire you? Would your partner immediately recommit to you? Would your children want you to continue to be their parent? The easy answer is, "Absolutely!" But it's probably not the honest answer. Your life might read like a success story, and your parents and friends might even think you have it all figured out, but you have a secret: You feel out of place in your own life. You'd rather binge-watch Netflix than think about what's next. You're living on autopilot.

Living with Intent is a chronicle of Mallika Chopra’s search to find more meaning, joy, and balance in life. She hopes that by telling her story, she can inspire others with her own successes (and failures) as well as share some of the wisdom she has gathered from friends, experts, and family along the way — people like her dad, Deepak, as well as Eckhart Tolle, Marianne Williamson, Arianna Huffington, Andrew Weil, and Dan Siegel. She also provides a practical road map for how we can all move from thought to action to outcome.

Der emotionale Rucksack - das sind die schwierigen, unaufgearbeiteten Gefühle aus der Vergangenheit, die jeder mit sich herumschleppt: Angst, Wut, Trauer, Schmerz und andere mehr.

Vivian Dittmar, bekannte Referentin und Seminarleiterin, stellt einen neuen, heilsamen Umgang mit dem emotionalen Rucksack vor. Sie zeigt, wie wir ihn kontrolliert und bewusst entladen können, sodass wir endlich freier und mit weniger Ballast durchs Leben gehen.

Enter Manjit Thapp’s world, where you’ll find moods that change as quickly as the weather; the different shades of anxiety and hope that each new season brings; and the stages of joy and pain that fuel our growth. From the spark of possibility and jolt of creativity in high summer, to the need for release from anxiety and pressure during monsoon, to the desolation and numbness of winter, Thapp implores us to consider the seasons of our own emotional journeys.

Wir alle kennen Situationen, in denen Gefühle uns zu Handlungen verleiten, die wir später bereuen, oder in denen Ängste und Sorgen uns schlaflose Nächte bereiten.
