Should Your Heart Be Tested or Trusted? Many believers are convinced they have a “deceitful” and “wicked” heart that is not to be trusted. Theirs is a faith of duty and obligation—only a faint imitation of the full and abundant life Jesus promised. This provocative book invites you to a radically different approach, an inspiring move from head to heart that affects every aspect of your life: how you handle conflict, how you communicate with and love others, and how you view yourself and God. There’s a place of purity within you where Jesus lives. God calls you to live from this perfect place—not merely from your head, but from your heart. Knowing the perfect you means no more waiting for closeness with God. Knowing the perfect you brings a freedom in Jesus that you’ve never experienced before. “In this captivating book, Andrew Farley and Tim Chalas invite you to celebrate God’s perfect (and accurate!) view of you.” —BART MILLARD, singer/songwriter for MercyMe

Most people have experienced--at least once in their lives--the incomparable thrill of being part of a great team effort. They can remember the unity of purpose they experienced, the powerful passion that inspired them, and the incredible results they achieved. People who have been on a great team can attest that the difference between being on a team with a shared vision and being on a team without one is the difference between joy and misery. In 1996, Jim and Michele McCarthy, after successful careers leading software development teams at Microsoft and elsewhere, set out to discover a set of repeatable group behaviors that would always lead to the formation of a state of shared vision for any team. They hoped for a practical, communicable, and reliable process that could be used to create the best possible teams every time it was applied. They established a hands-on laboratory for the study and teaching of high-performance teamwork. In a controlled simulation environment, their principle research and teaching effort--the McCarthy Software Development BootCamp--challenged dozens of real-world, high-tech teams to produce and deliver a product. Teams were given a product development assignment, and instructed to form a team, envision the product, agree on how to make it, then design, build, and ship it on time. By repeating these simulations time after time, with the new teams building on the learning from previous teams, core practices emerged that were repeatedly successful. These were encoded as patterns and protocols. Software for Your Head is the first publication of the most significant results of the authors' unprecedented five-year investigation into the dynamics of contemporary teams. The information in this book will provide a means for any team to create for itself a compelling state of shared vision. 0201604566B09042001

Everyone has to go through this journey, everyone has to lose themselves for a while, until they face a crucial question: "Who am I?". That is the start of a journey back home.

Say hello to a clearer mind thanks to your new bulletproof technique to help you relax and unleash your best self.’ Madeleine Shaw, author of Get The Glow Daily life can feel like a fast-paced treadmill, leaving little time to unwind, re-charge and do what brings us joy. Meditation is a powerful way to hit the pause button, increase your energy and start to enjoy life more. The Effortless Mind is renowned meditation teacher Will Williams’s must-have guide for modern-day meditators. Suffering from chronic stress and insomnia, Will undertook years of research and training with leading experts from around the world, which led him to find the cure he was looking for in Beeja meditation. In The Effortless Mind, Will explains how his Vedic-inspired method of meditation has transformed the lives of his students – all of whom are busy people of all ages and all backgrounds. Their inspiring stories and the scientific research into meditation show the profound physical, mental and emotional benefits you can gain from such a simple daily practice, including more energy, better sleep, greater clarity, less anxiety and a happier outlook on life. More praise for The Effortless Mind: ‘Meditation can be a powerful tool in managing anxiety, stress and other common daily experiences that so many people seem to face and Vedic meditation with Will is one of the simplest forms of meditation there is, making it incredibly accessible for anyone to learn.’ Annie Clarke, author of Mind Body Bowl ‘I learnt how to meditate with Will Williams two years ago and since then so many things have changed.

I feel extremely grateful this has come into my life.’ Cressida Bonas, actress ‘Will’s practical, non-woo-woo approach to meditation has enabled thousands of busy people to find a way to fit a regular practice into their lives.’ Lesley Thomas, The Times

Sweet Potato Pie for the Spirit, Soul & Psyche --A Tribute to Oprah Winfrey & Super Soul Sundays --A Thick, Rich Slice of Wisdom & Empowerment --A Book of Inspirational Quotes & Positive Affirmations Sweet Potato Pie for the Spirit, Soul & Psyche is a book of wisdom, abundance, empowerment, prosperity and success. Its purpose is to help individuals move forward in life in positive ways through increased self-improvement, self-development, self-motivation, self-reflection, self-actualization, self-determination, self-transformation and self-enhancement. And, it introduces and draws upon alternative mental health and wellness techniques like Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy, Mindfulness, Mind-setting, NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), Time Line Therapy (R), Mental Massages, Parts Integration, Values Realignment, Regression Analysis, Defense Mechanism Analysis, All Day Breakthroughs, Freudian Psychoanalysis and Ericksonian Therapies. It illustrates the concept that pills alone will not solve most mental, emotional and/or psychological problems. The idea for this book came from watching Super Soul Sundays (R) on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) (R). Watching the show has been such an inspiration for me. It's been a teacher. Oprah's "Thought for Today" newsletter (R) has also been a great inspiration. As an MD with two Abundance, Empowerment, Mind-setting and Prosperity Practices, MLC Of Greater Atlanta [MLCOGA], and Atlanta Coaching and Hypnotherapy Associates [ACHA], I help my clients to realize that there are motivations, inspirations and moments of insight that are readily available to them. In practice, I found myself continually sending my clients to other sources to find concepts, affirmations, quotes and statements that would help empower them and fuel their meditations on a daily basis. So, I decided to create one for them so that I wouldn't have to necessarily send them elsewhere. At my core, I believe that we should find and share positive energy. This book represents my opportunity to share the positive energy and encouragement that I've received from my parents, Reverend Harlis R. Wright & Dr. Bettye D. Wright, my mentor, Dr. Todd M. Antin (The CEO and Chief Medical Director of PACT Atlanta, the largest psychiatric practice in Atlanta), Dr. Oprah Winfrey, my teachers & professors, my friends and strong acquaintances, life circumstances and other sources. Chapter one covers how to confront anxiety, chapter two covers the biochemistry and physiology of sleep and natural approaches to solving sleep disorders and dilemmas, chapter three covers the power of words, phrases, mantras, speech and affirmations, chapter four covers hypnosis, hypnotherapy and how they work, chapter five covers happiness, what it means, and how to create it, chapter six covers how to sow seeds of abundance, empowerment, prosperity and success in life (and it relates them to the movie "The Matrix" (R)) in order to create a resilient mindset and a strong degree of mindfulness, and finally, chapter number seven provides you with one third of a year of motivational quotes, inspirational phrases and positive affirmations. This book was created to help empower you, help inspire you, help fuel your meditations, to help fuel your dreams & aspirations, to help fuel your hypnosis sessions, to help energize your mind, body, spirit & soul, to help you stay mentally refreshed and renewed, to help empower your thoughts and prayers, and to nourish for your mind, body, spirit, soul & psyche. Finally, it introduces you to alternative mental health and wellness techniques like Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy, Mindfulness, Mind-setting, NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), Time Line Therapy (R), Mental Massages, Parts Integration, Values Realignment, Regression Analysis, Defense Mech

The extraordinary story of how the human brain evolved… and is still evolving. We’ve come a long way. The earliest human had a brain as small as a child’s fist; ours are four times bigger, with spectacular abilities and potential we are only just beginning to understand. This is How the Mind Changed, a seven-million-year journey through our own heads, packed with vivid stories, groundbreaking science, and thrilling surprises. Discover how memory has almost nothing to do with the past; meditation rewires our synapses; magic mushroom use might be responsible for our intelligence; climate accounts for linguistic diversity; and how autism teaches us hugely positive lessons about our past and future. Dr. Joseph Jebelli’s In Pursuit of Memory was shortlisted for the Royal Society Science Book Prize and longlisted for the Wellcome. In this, his eagerly awaited second book, he draws on deep insights from neuroscience, evolutionary biology, psychology, and philosophy to guide us through the unexpected changes that shaped our brains. From genetic accidents and environmental forces to historical and cultural advances, he explores how our brain’s evolution turned us into Homo sapiens and beyond. A single mutation is all it takes.
