Unstressable : a practical guide to stress-free living / by Gawdat, Mo,author.; Law, Alice,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 355-358)."Unstressable is a handbook for those who realize stress isn't what happens to you; it's how you handle what happens to you. It's a left brainer's solution to a modern right-brain problem. Mo Gawdat is an engineer. What most of us see as inchoate, insurmountable problems he sees as systems overloads to tackle and solve. Unstressable breaks stress into inputs and effects, classifying human stressors as: stress to the mind, stress to emotions, stress to the body, and stress to the soul. Once classified, Gawdat and co-author Alice Law show readers how stress can be predicted -- with mathematical certainty -- and once predicted, prevented. Unstressable shows readers how most of us deal with the unpleasant, anxiety-producing and even miserable or tragic events in our lives: stress is always a by-product, leading directly to inability to cope, health problems and cratered confidence. Gawdat guides readers to no-woo-woo, all-science-based solutions. He'll train readers to: -- Develop habits and attitudes of listening and learning that limit stress -- Learn the language of de-stressing mind, emotions, body and soul -- Respond, not react -- Release self-criticism, insomnia, and lethargy -- Increase energy, focus and confidence"--

Carry : a memoir of survival on stolen land / by Jensen, Toni,author.;
"A powerful, poetic memoir about what it means to exist as an indigenous woman in America, told in snapshots of the author's encounters with gun violence--for readers of Jesmyn Ward and Terese Marie Mailhot. Toni Jensen grew up in the Midwest around guns: As a girl, she learned how to shoot birds with her father, a card-carrying member of the NRA. As an adult, she's had guns waved in her face in the fracklands around Standing Rock, and felt their silent threat on the concealed-carry campus where she teaches. And she has always known she is not alone. As a Métis woman, she is no stranger to the violence enacted on the bodies of indigenous women, on indigenous land, and the ways it is hidden, ignored, forgotten. In Carry, Jensen maps her personal experience onto the historical, exploring how history is lived in the body and redefining the language we use to speak about violence in America. In the title chapter, Jensen recalls the discrimination she faced in college as a Native American student from her roommate to her faculty adviser. "The Worry Line" explores the gun and gang violence in her neighborhood the year her daughter was born. "At the Workshop" focuses on her graduate school years, during which a classmate repeatedly wrote stories in which he killed thinly veiled versions of her. In "Women in the Fracklands," Jensen takes the reader inside Standing Rock during the Dakota Access pipeline protests, as well as the peril faced by women, in regions overcome by the fracking boom. In prose at once forensic and deeply emotional, Toni Jensen shows herself to be a brave new voice and a fearless witness to her own difficult history--as well as to the violent cultural landscape in which she finds her coordinates as a Native American woman. With each chapter, Carry reminds us that surviving in one's country is not the same as surviving one's country."--

Life without diabetes : the definitive guide to understanding and reversing type 2 diabetes / by Taylor, Roy,1952-author.; Alberti, George,writer of foreword.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.From the global pioneer whose work inspired The 8 Week Blood Sugar Diet, a Iife-changing guide to reversing type 2 diabetes. For centuries type 2 diabetes has been regarded as an incurable, lifelong condition - a case of 'Abandon hope all yet who enter here'. Now, thanks to Professor Roy Taylor, there is a way out to reversing the fastest growing disease in the world. After years of studying the causes of diabetes, in 2006 Professor Taylor and his team at Newcastle University finally found the 'missing piece in the scientific jigsaw', a Eureka moment that launched a multi-million-dollar trial involving 280 type 2 diabetics from around the United Kingdom. In 2018 they published the remarkable, life-changing results. In Life Without Diabetes, Professor Taylor presents the definitive guide to understanding and reversing type 2. In simple and accessible language, he deconstructs the complex workings of the body as an energy system, illustrates how our modern lifestyle has interfered with the mechanics of this process and offers a surprisingly simple solution, in the form of the 3-step program he developed with his team of researchers, also known as the 'Newcastle Diet'. Professor Taylor's aim is to transform the treatment of type 2 diabetes across the globe. In this book, he not only points anyone with type 2 towards a return to full health, but offers practical and proven advice on how to enjoy life and remain free of the disease - for good.
