In this inspiring book of divine discovery, poet and seeker Arundhathi Subramaniam gives us a glimpse into the lives of four self-contained, unapologetic female spiritual travelers."Among the finest pieces of spiritual truth-telling literature I have ever read ... A book to savor and celebrate."--Mirabai Starr, author of Wild Mercy and Ordinary Mysticism"As the pages turn, one feels a growing sense of shared humanity, even kinship, with these extraordinary practitioners of the sacred."--Tim Parks, author of Teach Us to Sit Still: A Skeptic's Search for Health and HealingIn life, spiritual paths are often as unique as we are.

"Suneel Gupta shares how to chisel away the everyday layers that prevent us from clarity and joy. Written with compassion and wit, you will find yourself within its pages, and by the book's end, it's very possible that you will have uncovered just what most lights the fire within you." -Sharon Salzberg, New York Times bestselling author of Lovingkindness and Real LifeFind your Dharma-your inner calling-and learn to integrate ambition, work, and wellbeing to create a balanced, joyous life with this practical, life-changing guide from the beloved speaker, bestselling author, and visiting scholar at Harvard Medical School. We've been conditioned, from an early age, to believe that one day we'll reach a moment of "arrival." But no matter how much we achieve or acquire we still don't feel as satisfied or as fulfilled as we thought we would be. Exhausted, we become burned out and cynical, questioning the purpose of it all. An expert on happiness and work, Suneel Gupta argues that for too long society has been fixated on the Future of Work and ignored the Future of Worth. We've compartmentalized work and well-being and ignored the fact that both are essential for sustained success. We've assumed that outer success leads to inner well-being-despite history showing us that this has never been the case. In Everyday Dharma, Suneel helps us break this negative cycle. A captivating storyteller, he weaves personal stories, history, science, Eastern philosophy, and Western modalities in this engaging, enlightening, and prescriptive book. He begins by helping us identify our dharma, the essence of who we are. When you're in your Dharma, you feel confident, creative, and caring, with a sense of purpose, and that shines through your life and work. Everyday Dharma provides an accessible three-step approach to discovering, understanding, and living your "sacred calling." At its center are self-assessments to help you identify your passions and powerful rituals for building new habits-ancient practices supported by science and found in diverse cultural sources, including Toni Morrison's novels, Jimi Hendrix's lyrics, and Frida Kahlo's paintings, and used by the likes of Nelson Mandela, Dr. Martin Luther King, and Mahatma Gandhi. Finding your dharma empowers you to let go of anxiety, follow your wildest ambitions, produce your life's work, and experience true joy.

Just as a tree yearns to grow, so do we. But as Marcus makes clear, "writing a single journal entry and expecting your life to turn around is like asking for fruit from a tree you planted yesterday. Growth doesn't just happen--it's a never-ending process, something we should welcome and embrace."In this beautiful self-care journal, we can discover powerful and healing practices organized by the seasons, each mirroring different stages of our growth process: SUMMER: learning how to pace and keep tempoFALL: opening ourselves to embrace transition and practice gratitudeWINTER: taking time to rest, reflect, and prepareSPRING: discovering inspiration, keeping momentumLike the rings of a tree marking every year of growth, our journal can become a log of lessons learned throughout the seasons of our lives.

"This book is for anyone who feels that they're sleepwalking through life, looking for answers to challenging emotions and the practical tools to begin living the life they want. ... You can't quite put your finger on it, but somehow you just don't feel like you're thriving or truly participating in your own life. This is the result of a build-up of life's scrapes, papercuts, and bruises that have left you feeling simply 'not ok.' Emotional illiteracy, microaggressions, challenging familial relationships, toxic positivity, and gaslighting are some examples of what I call 'Tiny T' trauma--the impact of which often leads to problems such as high-functioning anxiety, languishing, perfectionism, comfort eating, and sleep disturbance, to name but a few"--

But through it all she never lost her sense of humor.Born with a wonderful wit and an irrepressible spirit, Aida used her gifts and worked tirelessly, turning tragedy and pain into biting comedy that takes on everything from misogyny and racism to social media and news headlines. She eventually released a hit HBO Max special which led to multiple development deals--success that won her a nationwide audience, opened doors, and helped her expand the way Latinos are represented in comedy. In this, her highly anticipated first book, Aida charts her many ups and downs. From personal setbacks to career highs and everything in between, Legitimate Kid is endearing, shocking, and ultimately life-affirming.

Rose McGowan was born in one cult and came of age in another, more visible cult: Hollywood. Rose escaped the Children of God as a child, moved to the States, and then ran away at thirteen. She lived a transient punk lifestyle on and off the streets until she was ?discovered? in Los Angeles and overnight became one of Hollywood's most desired actresses. In a strange world where she was contin-ually on display, stardom soon became a personal nightmare of constant exposure and sexualization. Rose escaped into the world of her mind, something she had done as a child, and into high-profile relationships. Every detail of her personal life became public, and the realities of an inherently sexist industry emerged with each script, role, public appear-ance, and magazine cover. The Hollywood machine packaged her as a sexualized bombshell, hijacking her image and identity and marketing them for profit.Hollywood expected Rose to be silent and cooperative and to stay the path. Instead, she rebelled and asserted her true identity and voice. She reemerged unscripted, courageous, victorious, angry, smart, fierce, unapologetic, controversial, and real as f*ck.BRAVE is her raw, honest, and poignant memoir/manifesto?a no-holds-barred, pull-no-punches account of the rise of a millennial icon, fearless activist, and unstoppable force for change who is determined to expose the truth about the entertainment industry, dismantle the concept of fame, shine a light on a multibillion-dollar business built on systemic misogyny, and empower people everywhere to wake up and be BRAVE.

Modern Christians are steeped in a language so distorted that it has become a stumbling block to the religion, says internationally renowned Bible scholar Marcus J. Borg. Borg argues that Christianity's important words, and the sacred texts and stories in which those words are embedded, have been narrowed by a modern framework for the faith that emphasizes sin, forgiveness, Jesus dying for our sins, and the afterlife. Here, Borg employs the ?historical-metaphorical? method for understanding Christian language that can restore for us these words of power and transformation. For example, Redemption: now narrowly understood as Jesus saving us from sins so we can go to heaven, but in the Bible it refers to being set free from slavery. Savior: now refers to Jesus as the one who saves us from our sins, but in the Bible it has a rich and wonderful variety of meanings having nothing to do with the afterlife. Sacrifice: now refers to Jesus's death on the cross as payment for our sins, but in the Bible it is never about substitutionary payment for sin.In Speaking Christian, Borg delivers a language for twenty-first-century Christians that grounds the faith in its deep and rich original roots and allows it once again to transform our lives.
