This fascinating and practical self-help guide will give you a number of powerful techniques for tackling your anger head on and taking control of it, rather than letting it control you. USING THIS WORKBOOK, READERS WILL LEARN ABOUT: - The factors that trigger and fuel our anger, how it works and how to change the anger response - Specific skills to manage anger and improve relationships Filled with interactive exercises and practical skills, The Anger Workbook will guide you in your journey to transform your anger into inner strength. THE COMPASSIONATE MIND APPROACH The self-help books in this series are based on compassion focused therapy (CFT, developed by series editor Paul Gilbert). This brings together an understanding of how our mind can cause us difficulties but also provides us with a powerful solution in the shape of mindfulness and compassion. It teaches ways to stimulate the part of the brain connected with kindness, warmth, compassion and safeness, and to calm the part that makes us feel, anxious, angry, sad or depressed.Russell Kolts is a licensed clinical psychologist and professor at Eastern Washington University, USA. He has many years' experience in treating anger problems and has pioneered the use of CFT in working with anger, which he has applied in numerous settings.

Starting conversations, that is, the ability to connect with people so strongly that you end up creating a bond and thus, a thriving social network, is one of the keys to living a successful life. When you think about it, how many times have you heard or seen people use their connections to get ahead in life? For instance, if you are jobless, and you hear of a work opportunity that fits your exact expertise at a firm where your friend works, would you not use that connection to get the job, to learn as much as you can about the job and the company offering it? You will have firsthand information of the intricacies of the job opening. Your advantage of knowing someone within the company will come in handy when you go for that interview. As this illustrates, the power of having a thriving social network has many implications on your life. Those who have a good social network are those who have mastered the art of conversation. They have mastered their fear of talking to strangers and learned how to engage anyone in a conversation. A conversation at a bar, the beach, the train, a shared cab or even a chance meeting at a concert can lead to a lifelong relationship (or in some cases, a life partner), a meeting of minds or even a thriving business partnership. If you lack the ability to strike up conversations, especially with people you don't know, you will be inhibiting your personal growth. You never know. The person you are afraid of saying hi to could be the person who changes your life. He or she could be your next business partner, life partner, or even greatest friend. If you are always cowering, allowing the fear of talking to strangers wash over, and control you, you are doing yourself a disservice. Would you like to learn how to overcome the challenge of being unable to speak to people, especially strangers? Would you like to learn how to talk to anyone and experience the sense of fun, excitement and accomplishment that comes with creating new connections? If you would, you are in for a treat because while being a great conversationalist requires effort and practice, this book has distilled everything you need to know into 7 simple steps to go from "I can't talk to strangers" to "I can't wait for a chance to talk to and interact with everyone."The challenging nature of the steps vary from the first being the easiest and the last being the most difficult.

From one of today’s leading experts on the emerging science of the microbiome comes a ground-breaking book that offers, for the first time, evidence that the gut-microbiome plays a pivotal role in the health crises of the twenty-first century.In his acclaimed book, The Mind-Gut Connection, physician, UCLA professor, and researcher Dr. Emeran Mayer offered groundbreaking evidence of the critical role of the microbiome in neurological and cognitive health, proving once and for all the power and legitimacy of the “mind-body connection.” Now, in The Gut-Immune Connection, Dr. Mayer proposes an even more radical paradigm shift: that the gut microbiome is at the center of virtually every disease that defines our 21st-century public health crisis.Cutting-edge research continues to advance our understanding of the function and impact of the billions of organisms that live in the GI tract, and in Dr. Mayer’s own research, he has amassed evidence that the “conversation” that takes place between these microbes and our various organs and bodily systems is critical to human health. When that conversation goes awry, we suffer, often becoming seriously ill.Combining clinical experience with up-to-the-minute science, The Gut-Immune Connection offers a comprehensive look at the link between alterations to the gut microbiome and the development chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, as well as susceptibility to infectious diseases like Covid-19. Dr. Mayer argues that it’s essential we understand the profound and far-reaching effects of gut health and offers clear-cut strategies to reverse the steady upward rise of these illnesses, including a model for nutrition to support the microbiome. But time is running out: a plague of antimicrobial resistance is only a few decades away if we don’t make critical changes to our food supply, including returning to sustainable practices that maintain the microbial diversity of the soil. To turn the tide of chronic and infectious disease tomorrow, we must shift the way we live today.
My name is Mrs. Latruth and I created this Journal to encourage, uplift, and inspire women to love themselves and learn about self-love. Nowadays, women tear each other down and disparage each other, rather than uplifting each other. It is also rare that you hear Women speak on self-love. I am a WOMAN with a VISION to EMPOWER WOMEN to DO MORE, SEE MORE, & BE MORE. I strongly believe that WOMEN should EMPOWER each other instead of being HATEFUL & ENVIOUS of one another. Other WOMEN are not my competition; I STAND with them NOT against them.
