Judgment detox : release the beliefs that hold you back from living a better life / by Bernstein, Gabrielle,author.;
"From featured "next-generation thought leader" on Oprah Winfrey's Super Soul 100 and #1 New York Times bestselling author Gabrielle Bernstein comes a clear, proactive, step-by-step program to rid yourself of the tendency to judge yourself and others, and find your way back to true healing and oneness. Judgment--both being judged and judging others--is the core of our discomfort. While it's powerful, judgment isn't complicated. It's simply the separation from oneness. The moment we see ourselves as separate we detour into a false belief system that is out of alignment with our true nature. That separation, often a reflection of our own insecurities projected onto others, keeps us feeling alienated and alone. The Judgment Detox is an interactive process that calls on spiritual principles from the text A Course in Miracles, Kundalini yoga, meditation, EFT, and metaphysical teachings, allowing us to release the beliefs that hold us back from living a better life. Gabby has demystified these principles to make them easy to apply and commit to. The six steps include: -Witness your judgment without judgment -Honor the wound -Put love on the alter -See for the first time -Cut the cords -Bring your shadows to light This step-by-step process offers a path to true healing, oneness, and a deeper connection to the universe and those around us"--

Life is a lazy Susan of sh*t sandwiches / by Welch, Jennifer,author.; Sullivan, Angie,author.;
From the beloved hosts of the hit podcast I've Had It , an honest, irreverent and inspiring guide to overcoming life's unexpected challenges and finding joy, stability and humour in today's chaotic world, for fans of Big Friendship and The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck Long before their blockbuster podcast, I've Had It, Jennifer Welch and Angie "Pumps" Sullivan were simply two best friends, supporting each other through the ups and downs of life. Together they've celebrated family milestones and cheered on professional successes, but they've weathered the storms together too. When Jennifer's husband battled alcoholism and drug addiction, she turned to Angie for support. When Angie's own marriage began to crumble, she turned to Jennifer. And crucially, through it all they've kept one another laughing in stitches. For the first time, Angie and Jennifer open up about the most personal moments that shaped their worldviews, sharpened their humour and inspired the "hopeful cynicism" that underpins their I've Had It podcast. Using their friendship as a roadmap, Jennifer and Angie share the wisdom that got them through life's biggest challenges and the lessons they've absorbed along the way. From infidelity, addiction and sobriety to economic instability, struggles with self-worth and brushes with fame, they've seen it all, and they're here to help guide readers on their own journeys, showing us how we too can centre our lives around humour, hope and connection and let go of the rest.

Subtract : the untapped science of less / by Klotz, Leidy,1978-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Blending behavioral science and design, Leidy Klotz's Subtract: The Untapped Science of Less offers a scientific appreciation of why we underuse subtraction-and how to access its untapped potential. When humans solve problems, we overlook an incredibly powerful option: We don't subtract. We pile on "to-dos" but don't consider "stop-doings." We create incentives for high performance, but don't get rid of obstacles to our goals. Whether considering a stack of Legos, preparing a grilled cheese sandwich, or writing an essay, Leidy Klotz shows that we consistently overlook the principle of subtraction as a way to improve. Our mental preference for addition-for adding to what's already there rather than thinking of taking away-is so wide-spread and strong that we would prefer to accommodate wrong ideas than simply remove them. Drawing from his own pioneering research and scientific research throughout history, Klotz examines cultural, political, and economic trends underlying our neglect of subtraction, asserting that we have billions of years of evidence showing that lifeforms are perfectly capable of subtracting to improve. Proposing a new way to frame our behaviors, Klotz shares thought-provoking examples and anecdotes to supplement his proven techniques on implementing a new perspective and understanding of subtraction. By learning to use the counterintuitive approach of subtracting, we can revolutionize not just our day-to-day lives, but our work across every field and industry. Subtract shows how this innovative approach to life is the key to unlocking our greatest potential"--

The laws of human nature / by Greene, Robert,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of readers, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding and mastery. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves. We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose. Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defense"--

The only constant : a guide to embracing change and leading an authentic life / by Zebian, Najwa,author.;
"A profound guide to navigating change and embracing the journey as your authentic self, from the bestselling author of Welcome Home. Most people want something in their life to change, whether it's their job, their personal relationships, or their ability to live authentically. And sometimes, unwanted change comes all too swiftly. We may want to jump over the hard, confusing parts, but true growth happens in that uncomfortable space in between here and there. In Change Is Life, celebrated poet and educator Najwa Zebian quiets the noise and focuses on the necessity and beauty of those messy transitional times in life. Zebian assures us that it's okay to be a person-in-progress. This is a tender and wise guide to accepting yourself as you are now, embracing impermanence, and celebrating the fact that change is what puts the life in life. Written with poetic wisdom, Zebian shares her personal experiences with change (for example, rejecting her culture's definition of what constitutes a "good woman" so that she could live more honestly). She guides us through the changes we choose, like embarking on a new career or setting boundaries, and changes we don't choose, like the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a job. Ultimately, Zebian teaches that the purpose of change is to step into the world as your most authentic self. Change Is Life is here to assure us that uncertainty is natural. Change is scary. But it's the path to living as your true self. We may be in the in-between, but that journey is just as beautiful as the destination."--
