Although the practice of Sensory Awareness, the rediscovery of experiencing, is nonverbal, its essence can be distilled from the tape-recorded words of its seminal teacher, Charlotte Selver, in response to her students’ actions and questions during her classes. This book is a lovingly selected and skillfully edited compilation of excerpts of more than two decades of Charlotte Selver’s profound teachings, colorful sayings, and rich insights, arranged topically. They represent the heart of her teaching. Using only her own words, the text of each experiment feels like Charlotte Selver herself speaking not only to her class but to the reader. The reader is invited to try out some of the suggested experiments.

Sleep plays a crucial role in our waking lives, and we need to start paying it more attention. The latest research tells us that it's essential for learning and memory, for mental health and physical well-being, and yet we tend to only think about it when it's proving a struggle. Nodding Off leads you on a fascinating journey through the science of sleep as it evolves throughout our lives; from babies to teenagers, from middle age to the later years of our life, there are constantly new challenges to our sleep. Based on knowledge accumulated over almost two decades as a sleep researcher, Professor Alice Gregory shares real-life stories and interviews with other sleep experts to find the answers to questions, such as: - Why do so many adolescents enjoy lying in at the weekends? - Why do children experiencing anxiety, behavioural problems or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder so often have co-occurring sleep problems? - Why are scientists turning to sleep disorders such as sleep paralysis to try to understand paranormal experiences? With important tips on improving your sleep, Nodding Off is an essential read for anyone who sleeps, and more important still for those who don't get enough. Fans of Matthew Walker's Why We Sleep will love this book!

I'm curious. When you look in the mirror what do you see? Someone you like or a person you'd rather not be. Alice, a woman of a 'certain age', has all the usual hang-ups that come with it. Life is passing her by and, worse, she sees that it is going nowhere. Stripped of self-confidence and self-belief, Alice battles with self-torment and demons from the past. How does a handsome admirer change her view of herself, what does she do at the village fete and how does learning about sex magic help her to overcome her self-defeating thinking patterns? Life is indeed a mysterious journey and Alice's, although ordinary, is no exception. Just like her fictional namesake's adventures in wonderland, Alice almost drowns in her own tears. It is only when she learns to "shift her mind" that she discovers how to change the focus of her attention and imagination and find her way out of a deep hole. Resonates with any woman and mother; humorous and packed with familiar anecdotal stories of family life.
