My Mind My Master: The Eternal
by Hratch Ogali"“When you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything.” My Mind, My Master advocates the extraordinary power of the mind: how we can learn to harness this power, our physical energy and health can dramatically improve. This book has been written out of Hratch Ogali’s personal experience, and from five years working with individuals at the Mind Clinic, many of whom have suffered from devastating neurological conditions. Ogali’s approach is holistic: he is convinced that emotional damage can result, even many years later, in physical illness. He describes simple solutions for emotional well-being, in order to prevent and overcome illness. He does not claim to be a healer: rather to teach people how to use their minds to heal themselves. “We each possess the knowledge to life’s fundamental questions: when we pay attention to our mind we are indeed capable of achieving anything.” My Mind My Master is written in straightforward language: it describes the relationship between mind, brain and body and how we relate to our environment. This is a book which can help you achieve a deep insight into the self and be the catalyst for change. "

Walking with Peety: The Dog Who Saved My Life
by Eric O'GreyThis is more than a tale of mutual rescue. This is an epic story of friendship and strength. Eric was 150 pounds overweight, depressed, and sick. After a lifetime of failed diet attempts, and the onset of type 2 diabetes due to his weight, Eric went to a new doctor, who surprisingly prescribed a shelter dog. And that's when Eric met Peety: an overweight, middle-aged, and forgotten dog who, like Eric, had seen better days. The two adopted each other and began an incredible journey together, forming a bond of unconditional love that forever changed their lives. Over the next year, just by going on walks, playing together, and eating plant-based foods, Eric lost 150 pounds, and Peety lost 25. As a result, Eric reversed his diabetes, got off all medication, and became happy and healthy for the first time in his life -- eventually reconnecting with and marrying his high school sweetheart. WALKING WITH PEETY is for anyone ready to make a change in his or her life, and for everyone who knows the joy, love, and hope that dogs can bring.

A Grief Like No Other: Surviving the Violent Death of Someone You Love
by Kathleen O'HaraA Grief Like No Other is the book no one wants to ever have to buy; sadly, many people continue to need it. From 9/11 to Cindy Sheehan's son - from mass tragedies like the recent London bombings to Law and Order type crimes that make the news only to be replaced by another name. As such, more people are left with the aftermath of dealing with the violent death of a loved one. It brings its own special brand of grieving since victim's families can spend years dealing with legal ramifications, guilt, and a myriad of other circumstances that don't accompany "normal" deaths. Kathleen O'Hara knows both sides of this coin. As a therapist, she has counseled hundreds of people dealing with grief. As a mother, she saw her worst fears realized when her college-aged son was brutally murdered in 1999. In the aftermath of Aaron's murder, O'Hara developed the seven stage journey that is at the heart of A Grief Like No Other. Although this is a book for those left behind in the aftermath of violence, it offers concrete and practical steps and stages, allowing family and friends safe passage through this incredibly harrowing journey.

Women and Leadership: Real Lives, Real Lessons
by Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala Julia GillardFor readers of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Sheryl Sandberg and Mary Beard, Women and Leadership is a powerful call to arms about the lack of women at the top.________________Women make up less than 10 per cent of national leaders, and behind this lies a pattern of unequal access to power. In conversation with some of the world's most powerful and interesting women, Women and Leadership explores gender bias and asks why there aren't more women in leadership roles?Using current research as a starting point, Gillard and Okonjo-Iweala form questions and hypotheses, then test them on the lived experiences of women leaders such as Jacinda Ardern, Hillary Clinton, Christine Lagarde, Michelle Bachelet and Theresa May.Speaking honestly and freely, they talk about having their ideas stolen by male colleagues, about what it's like to be called fat or a slut in the media, and about the things they wish they had done differently. Their stories reveal how gender and sexism affect perceptions of women as leaders, the trajectories of their leaderships, and the circumstances in which they come to an end.The result is a rare insight into life as a leader, and a powerful call to arms for women everywhere.
