- Head strong : the bulletproof plan to activate untapped brain energy to work smarter and think faster--in just two weeks / by Asprey, Dave,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."From the creator of Bulletproof Coffee and author of the bestselling The Bulletproof Diet comes a revolutionary plan to upgrade your brainpower--in two weeks or less. For the last decade, Silicon Valley entrepreneur Dave Asprey has worked with world-renowned doctors and scientists to uncover the latest, most innovative methods for making humans perform better--a process known as "biohacking." In his first book, The Bulletproof Diet, he shared his biohacking tips for taking control of your own biology. Now, in Head Strong, Asprey shows readers how to biohack their way to a sharper, smarter, faster, more resilient brain. Imagine feeling like your mind is operating at its clearest and sharpest, and being able--possibly for the first time in your life--to do more in less time? What it suddenly became easier to do the very hardest things you do? Or if you could feel 100% confident about your intellect, and never again fear being the person in the room who just isn't smart enough, or can't remember something important? How would you treat people if the mood swings, short temper, and food cravings that disrupt your day could simply disappear? In Head Strong, Asprey shows us that all of this is possible--and more. Using his simple lifestyle modifications (or "hacks") to take advantage of how the structure of your brain works, readers will learn how to take their mental performance to the next level. Combining the latest findings in neuroscience and neurobiology with a hacker-inspired "get it done now" perspective, Asprey offers a program structured around key areas of brain performance that will help you: Power the brain with exactly what it needs to perform at its best all day long Eliminate the sources of "kryptonite," both nutritional and environmental, that make the brain slower. Supercharge the cellular powerhouses of our brains, the mitochondria, to eliminate cravings and turn up mental focus. Reverse inflammation to perform better right now, then stay sharp and energized well into your golden years. Promote neuron growth to enhance processing speed and reinforce new learning--hotwiring your brain for success. Asprey's easy to follow, two-week program offers a detailed plan to supercharge brain performance, including: which foods to eat and which ones to avoid, how to incorporate the right kinds of physical activity into your day, a detox protocol for your home and body; meditation and breathing for performance, recommended brain-boosting supplements; and how to adjust the lighting in your home and work space to give your brain the quality light it thrives on. A better brain--and a happier, easier, more productive life--is within reach. You just need to get Head Strong"--- Subjects: Brain; Brain; Mental health;

- Madame Restell : the life, death, and resurrection of old New York's most fabulous, fearless, and infamous abortionist / by Wright, Jennifer,1986-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Madame Restell is a sharp, witty Gilded Age medical history which introduces us to an iconic, yet tragically overlooked, feminist heroine: a glamorous women's healthcare provider in Manhattan, known to the world as Madame Restell. A celebrity in her day with a flair for high fashion and public, petty beefs, Restell was a self-made woman and single mother who used her wit, her compassion, and her knowledge of family medicine to become one of the most in-demand medical workers in New York. Not only that, she used her vast resources to care for the most vulnerable women of the city: unmarried women in need of abortions, birth control, and other medical assistance. In defiance of increasing persecution from powerful men, Restell saved the lives of thousands of young women; in fact, in historian Jennifer Wright's own words, "despite having no formal training and a near-constant steam of women knocking at her door, she never lost a patient." Restell was a revolutionary who opened the door to the future of reproductive choice for women, and Wright brings Restell and her circle to life in this dazzling, sometimes dark, and thoroughly entertaining tale. In addition to uncovering the forgotten history of Restell herself, the book also doubles as an eye-opening look into the "greatest American scam you've never heard about": the campaign to curtail women's power by restricting their access to healthcare. Before the 19th century, abortion and birth control were not only legal in the United States, but fairly common, and public healthcare needs (for women and men alike) were largely handled by midwives and female healers. However, after the Birth of the Clinic, newly-minted male MDs wanted to push women out of their space--by forcing women back into the home and turning medicine into a standardized, male-only practice. At the same time, a group of powerful, secular men--threatened by women's burgeoning independence in other fields--persuaded the Christian leadership to declare abortion a sin, rewriting the meaning of "Christian morality" to protect their own interests. As Wright explains, "their campaign to do so was so insidious--and successful--that it remains largely unrecognized to this day, a century and a half later." By unraveling the misogynistic and misleading lies that put women's health in jeopardy, Wright simultaneously restores Restell to her rightful place in history and obliterates the faulty, fractured reasoning underlying the very foundation of what has since been dubbed the "pro-life" movement. Thought-provoking, character-driven, funny, and feminist as hell, Madame Restell is required reading for anyone and everyone who believes that when it comes to women's rights, women's bodies, and women's history, women should have the last word"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Personal narratives.; Restell, Madame, 1811-1878; Restell, Madame, 1811-1878.; Abortion services; Abortion; Patent medicines; Trials (Abortion); Women in medicine;

- Uncommon kitchens : a revolutionary approach to the most popular room in the house / by Donelson, Sophie,author.;
"The past few years have made us all want to rethink our living spaces, particularly our kitchens. Our inner voices are saying: you spend a lot of time in this room, shouldn't it feel more like you? Now it can. Sophie Donelson revolutionizes traditional kitchen design with a bevy of inventive ideas for makeovers large and small. The kitchen is put together unlike any other room in the house-- but that doesn't mean you have to be hemmed in by tradition. Sophie takes a rule-breaking approach, mixing and layering styles, colors, furnishings, and layouts to make even well-trod kitchens vividly fresh. Drawing on advice and up-to-the-minute projects from designers such as Joy Cho, Studio Shamshiri, Beata Heuman, and a host of others, each personality-filled chapter is packed with liberating designs that will change your thinking about the tried-and-true kitchen. Learn from DIYers, Instagrammers, and design icons such as Ilse Crawford, Johnny Grey, and Robert Kime. Be inspired by innovators such as Heidi Caillier, Jessica Helgerson, Reath Design, Ward & Pierce, and Studio Laloc. Let chefs and foodies, including Alison Roman-- whose tips for a tiny kitchen are life-changing-- and Alex Snodgrass @theDefinedDish, change your thinking about floorplans and furnishings. These imaginative new kitchens will make you a quick convert and the book's know-how will help you create your own kitchen revolution, too"--- Subjects: Interior decoration.; Kitchens;

- El monstruo de los abrazos : mi cuerpo es solo mío / by López, Mar.; Borrego, María García.;
Includes bibliographical references.Un cuento ilustrado de la pediatra Mar López para explicar de manera clara y sencilla qué es el consentimiento y cuáles son los límites sobre nuestro cuerpo a los más pequeños, y para guiar a padres y madres en la prevención del abuso sexual infantil. Al monstruo Achuchones le encanta dar abrazos, sobre todo a su amiga... Pero, a veces, a ella no le apetece que la abracen. Un día, la niña decide que ha llegado el momento de enseñarle a Achuchones que tiene que respetar su espacio y entender que no se puede tocar a otra persona sin su permiso. En ocasiones, la inocencia y el desconocimiento de los niños les impiden detectar situaciones de abuso y de falta de consentimiento, por lo que debemos enseñarles desde temprana edad que su cuerpo es suyo, que hay partes de él que son PRIVADAS y que nadie puede tocarlos sin SU PERMISO. Y si en algún momento no se sienten cómodos, deben decir NO, porque quien nos quiere nos respeta y nos cuida. La pediatra y divulgadora Mar López, con más de un millón de seguidores en redes, presenta un álbum ilustrado que explica a los más pequeños de maneraclara y sencilla qué son los límites y el consentimiento. A través de la historia del monstruo Achuchones, tanto los niños y las niñas de 4 años en adelante como los adultos aprenderán conceptos imprescindibles para todos, porque el consentimiento no entiende de edades.An illustrated story by pediatrician Mar López that clearly and simply explains to young children what consent is, and what the boundaries concerning our bodies are, and to guide parents in preventing child sexual abuse. Huggy the Monster loves giving hugs, especially to his friend... But sometimes, she doesn't feel like being hugged. One day, the little girl decides it's time to teach Huggy that he must respect her space and understand that you can't touch another person without their permission. Sometimes, children's innocence and lack of knowledge prevent them from detecting situations of abuse and boundaries being overstepped, so we must teach them from an early age that their body is theirs, that there are parts of it that are PRIVATE, and that no one can touch them without THEIR PERMISSION. And if at any moment they feel uncomfortable, they should say NO, because those who love us respect and care for us. Pediatrician and educator Mar López, with over a million followers on social media, offers here an illustrated book that explains to young children in a clear and simple manner what boundaries and consent are. Through the story of Huggy the Monster, both children aged 4 and up and adults will learn essential concepts about boundaries, because consent knows no age.- Subjects: Picture books.; Child sexual abuse; Consent (Law); Boundaries (Psychology); Personal space; Hugging; Human body; Spanish language materials.;
