A no-nonsense guide to personal development, with real-life advice, for the skeptics of self-improvement.Self-development used to be something confined to a very particular sect of society and it all seemed a little outlandish for a huge chunk of the population, but now it's time for self-development to stop trying to be fancy and start becoming the norm.Fed up with your daily routine? Crippled with self-doubt? Exhausted from people-pleasing? Or simply facing a particularly challenging time? Whatever your circumstance, Holly Matthews has friendly and accessible advice on how to face life's challenges head-on and find the moments of joy again. It's a light-hearted approach with a powerful message behind the words. Holly shares her own stories of triumph over adversity. In 2017 Holly became a widowed mom of two girls when her husband Ross died from brain cancer. Before this, Holly worked as a television actress for years and experienced the emotional ups and downs that come with growing up in the public eye. By opening up about her own vulnerabilities, Holly hopes to give others the confidence to face their own bumps in the road, big or small. The Happy Me Project is 60 short, powerful chapters of straight-to-the-point self-help that you can dip in and out of as needed.

Dynamic Embodiment of the Sun Salutation®: Pathways to Balancing the Chakras and the Neuroendocrine System guides you to do the Sun Salutation with more ease by integrating awareness of glandular and chakral embodiment cues and neuro-developmental movement. Everything in this book can be applied to your personal practice and overall health, or to teaching others. It offers a soft, organic yet powerful approach to being in the poses and transitioning between them. What you will learn is effective and surprising. There is tangible mystery in accessing this ability, which we all have, to embody the endocrine system and the related energy fields.By working with the endocrine system and their correlations with the chakras we are grounding the subtle within the physical body. Learn about the dynamic combination of the specific electrical and systemic circulatory nature of the neuroendocrine system. Discover how the anatomical placement of the glands and the spatial tensions (or tensegrity) surrounding them are the natural bridge to activating the energy needed for a fulfilling life.One access route to these dynamic stimuli is through Body Mind Centering's developmental approach, conveyed through the lens of Dynamic Embodiment by BMC® Master teacher Dr Martha Eddy. This approach includes an understanding of careful skeletal positioning, brain-activating movement and hormonal balancing as well as integrating broader social somatic contexts such as the impact of lifestyle, cultural and intergenerational influences. In an age when, most likely, at least one person you know is struggling with thyroid, adrenal, or reproductive glandular imbalance, this book will provide information on the physical, emotional and spiritual impact of attuning with the glands and early childhood development imprints while practising the Sun Salutation. It includes clues for what to do when yoga or endocrine work brings on chaos - from trauma triggers, kundalini overwhelm, to basic life confusion. It gives you the tools to help ground yourself and others, and to take centered action in a dynamic world.
