The follow-up to his bestseller The War of Art, Turning Pro navigates the passage from the amateur life to a professional practice. "You don't need to take a course or buy a product. All you have to do is change your mind." --Steven Pressfield TURNING PRO IS FREE, BUT IT'S NOT EASY. When we turn pro, we give up a life that we may have become extremely comfortable with. We give up a self that we have come to identify with and to call our own. TURNING PRO IS FREE, BUT IT DEMANDS SACRIFICE. The passage from amateur to professional is often achieved via an interior odyssey whose trials are survived only at great cost, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually. We pass through a membrane when we turn pro. It's messy and it's scary. We tread in blood when we turn pro. WHAT WE GET WHEN WE TURN PRO. What we get when we turn pro is we find our power. We find our will and our voice and we find our self-respect. We become who we always were but had, until then, been afraid to embrace and live out.

"Cyrulink has healed people and countries." (The Times, London) Renowned French neuropsychiatrist and psychoanalyst Boris Cyrulnik's parents were deported to a concentration camp during the Second World War. They never returned. This early personal trauma at the age of five led Cyrulnik to his life's work helping individuals and countries come to terms with their pasts and forge ahead to create positive futures. It is his firm belief that trauma does not equal destiny-that, rather, we can find strength in the face of pain. Drawing on years of experience working around the globe with children who have been abused, orphaned, fought in wars and escaped genocide, Cyrulnik here tells many amazing and moving stories of individuals whose experiences prove that suffering, however appalling, can be the making of somebody rather than their destruction. This inspiring book teaches us that we can not only survive in the shadow of adversity-we can thrive.

At age 35, Lori DePietro-Standen was 60 pounds overweight and suffering from a chronic illness that included painful and debilitating inflammation, crippling chronic fatigue, and sky-high cholesterol and triglycerides. Her team of doctors couldn't identify the source of the problem or do anything to help her besides prescribe medications. Her subsequent research on nutrition and how it affects the body transformed her life, and after a total recovery she became passionate about helping others to achieve vibrant health. Much more research and many professional certifications later, the InnerStrength CPR Diet & Nutrition Plan was born! This book is a perfect companion to the wildly popular online version of the plan, the Online Diet & Nutrition Program, and also works as a must-have stand-alone for those seeking the information and motivation to change their lives. Includes Lori's story of transformation, her guide for finding empowerment through nutrition, the exclusive CPR Diet & Nutrition Plan, and over 65 delicious, healthy recipes (all plant-based and gluten-free) developed by Lori and her husband, Executive Chef Jon Standen.
