A Mind at Home with Itself - Katie Byron, Stephen Mitchell
â ˜Illuminatingâ ¦on the cutting edgeâ ™ Jon Kabat-Zinn Byron Katie has rocked my world and shaken loose my mind more thoroughly than any other spiritual teacher I ve ever encountered Elizabeth GilbertHow Asking Four Questions Can Free Your Mind, Open Your Heart and Turn Your World AroundIn A Mind At Home With Itself, bestselling author and founder of The Work, Byron Katie explains that emotions such as sadness, anger and resentment come from believing our negative thoughts. But when we learn to question those thoughts, they lose their power. And when this happens, our minds are free to turn towards others and ourselves with a spirit of generosity.Byron Katie gives hugely popular workshops every year all over the world, in places like churches, prisons, universities, schools and corporations. She speaks at organisations like Facebook and Stanford University and is also involved with a programme for cancer patients. Charismatic and compassionate, thereâ ™s good reason why The Times has called her events â ˜rivetingâ ™, and Time magazine has named her â ˜a spiritual innovator for the new millenniumâ ™.

A Thousand Names For Joy - Katie Byron, Stephen Mitchell
Inspired by the Tao Te Ching, this is Byron Katie s inspiring and pragmatic approach to achieving an awakened mind and living more simply and profoundly. Using the template of the 81 chapters of the Tao Te Ching she talks about her own experience of living in harmony with the way things are, and the difference between what hurts and what doesn t. Katie has written two books that teach how suffering can be relieved by questioning the thoughts that create it, the thoughts that argue with reality. This questioning takes courage and, in this her third book, she gives readers profound encouragement by showing them the freedom and love that live on the other side of self-inquiry.Many people believe that although enlightenment was attainable thousands of years ago by a few great saints or ascetics, such a state is out of reach of anyone living in the modern world, let alone themselves. This richly detailed account has the ability to change that belief.Katie s comments on life, and how to live it, are profound, vibrant, funny and crystal clear and all rooted in the familiar circumstances of everyday life.

At Home with Dyslexia - Sascha Roos
Recommended by Toe by Toe This is by far the best resource I have found as the parent of two dyslexic children. Out of all the documentaries, websites, seminars, podcasts and of course other books I have studied trying to educate myself on how best to support my little ladies, this provides the most relevant and necessary information in the clearest format. It has been great sharing snippets of the book with the girls, especially the view points of other people with dyslexia. Thank you for a great book! - Amazon reviewThis book will empower parents by giving them the tools and strategies to deal with dyslexia, making them confident and knowledgeable in the process.It offers:- a guidebook that is visually appealing, including bullet points, illustrations and short chapters, making it an easy to follow reference book for the busy (and often dyslexic) parent;- practical and emotional support at home from primary to secondary school years, as well as how to deal with school and the education system;- chapters that can be dipped into for useful day to day advice and tools to help at home , and for overall encouragement and reassurance;- parents and children sharing their personal experiences and advice in their personal accounts - the challenges of dyslexia, possible solutions and successes are openly discussed and woven throughout the chapters, giving the guide an authentic voice. Central to this guide is language of acceptance and celebration, emphasising a learning difference rather than a disability , and a genuine encouragement of dyslexic abilities and strengths.

Tandoori Home Cooking is an approachable, vibrant and flavorful celebration of Indian Tandoori cooking.

The Sportsman at Home - Stephen Harris
In The Sportsman at Home, Stephen Harris welcomes us into his kitchen in Whitstable to discover his favourite ingredients, and show us how to apply the simple ethos of his iconic restaurant to home cooking. The Sportsman is nothing short of an institution. Now in its 25th year, Stephen Harris took over a rundown pub on the Kent coast in 1999 and turned something ordinary into something extraordinary with his pared-back style of cooking, earning (and retaining) a Michelin star, as well as being named the UK’s best restaurant multiple times. It’s a cult classic both adored by professionals from all over the world, and a truly beloved, unpretentious local. Organised into chapters by occasion – Baking and Making, Posh Dinners, Not So Posh Dinners and Christmas, to name a few – Stephen captures the imagination for simple cooking with his love of seasonal, local produce, and scholarly, much-lauded approach to putting flavour first in the easiest, most effective ways. With dishes such as Welsh rarebit, cream of tomato soup, pork chop with charred leeks and tart tatin with vanilla ice cream, Stephen reintroduces familiar favourites, made simpler, and much better. With stunning location photography of the Kent landscape that serves as Stephen’s inspiration, as well as essays on ingredients, life in the kitchen and his journey to ground-breaking techniques, The Sportsman at Home is a true celebration of simple food at its very best, from one of the most respected chefs in the UK.

Gilgamesh - Stephen Mitchell
Vivid, enjoyable and comprehensible, the poet and pre-eminent translator Stephen Mitchell makes the oldest epic poem in the world accessible for the first time. Gilgamesh is a born leader, but in an attempt to control his growing arrogance, the Gods create Enkidu, a wild man, his equal in strength and courage. Enkidu is trapped by a temple prostitute, civilised through sexual experience and brought to Gilgamesh. They become best friends and battle evil together. After Enkidu s death the distraught Gilgamesh sets out on a journey to find Utnapishtim, the survivor of the Great Flood, made immortal by the Gods to ask him the secret of life and death. Gilgamesh is the first and remains one of the most important works of world literature. Written in ancient Mesopotamia in the second millennium B.C., it predates the Iliad by roughly 1,000 years. Gilgamesh is extraordinarily modern in its emotional power but also provides an insight into the values of an ancient culture and civilisation.

Freud and Beyond - Stephen Mitchell, Margaret J. Blacková
The classic, in-depth history of psychoanalysis, presenting over a hundred years of thought and theories Sigmund Freud #39;s concepts have become a part of our psychological vocabulary: unconscious thoughts and feelings, conflict, the meaning of dreams, the sensuality of childhood. But psychoanalytic thinking has undergone an enormous expansion and transformation since Freud #39;s death in 1939. With Freud and Beyond, Stephen A. Mitchell and Margaret J. Black make the full scope of twentieth century psychoanalytic thinking—from Harry Stack Sullivan to Jacques Lacan; D.W. Winnicott to Melanie Klein—available for the first time. Richly illustrated with case examples, this lively, jargon-free introduction makes modern psychoanalytic thought accessible at last.

Když dojde síla na hádky - Stephen Mitchell, Erin Mitchell
Knih o rodičovství existuje nepřeberné množství, stejně jako příruček o vztazích. Ale co se s romantickým vztahem děje v situaci, kdy se partneři stanou zároveň rodiči? Narození dětí promění partnerský vztah v mnoha směrech - únava, pracovní vytížení, nikdy nekončící péče o děti a domácnost, nevyspání a stres často přispívají k tomu, že spolu partneři nedokážou komunikovat jako dřív a uvíznou v kolotoči nikam nevedoucích hádek. Erin a Stephen Mitchellovi, manželská dvojice se třemi dětmi a více než dvacetiletou terapeutickou praxí, vysvětlují, proč tomu tak je, a ukazují, že konflikty samy o sobě nejsou špatné, naopak - když se vezmou za správný konec, mohou vzájemné pouto mezi partnery ještě posílit. Ve své knize popisují 13 nejtypičtějších konfliktů (např. Já jsem unavenější než ty , Snad vím, jak vychovávat vlastní děti , Tvá rodina je pro tebe důležitější než naše nebo Sexuální život? Jaký sexuální život? ) a na příkladu vlastní zkušenosti i poradenského sezení s modelovým párem představují konkrétní nástroje, postupy a strategie, které čtenáři pomohou využít daný konflikt k uzdravení a posílení vztahu.

Each recipe is accompanied by step-by-step instructions, including variations and preparation tips, anecdotes about Audrey and her life, and a poignant collection of photographs and memorabilia.Audrey at Home is a personal scrapbook of Audrey’s world and the things she loved best—her children, her friends, her pets.

At the Mind
These are pages that one reads with almost physical pain. . .all the way to its stoic conclusion. â ”Primo Levi The testimony of a profoundly serious man. . . . In its every turn and crease, it bears the marks of the true. â ”Irving Howe, New Republic This remarkable memoir. . .is the autobiography of an extraordinarily acute conscience. With the ear of a poet and the eye of a novelist, Amery vividly communicates the wonder of a philosopherâ ”a wonder here aroused by the dark riddle of the Nazi regime and its systematic sadism. â ”Jim Miller, Newsweek Whoever has succumbed to torture can no longer feel at home in the world. The shame of destruction cannot be erased. Trust in the world, which already collapsed in part at the first blow, but in the end, under torture, fully, will not be regained. That one s fellow man was experienced as the antiman remains in the tortured person as accumulated horror. It blocks the view into a world in which the principle of hope rules. One who was martyred is a defenseless prisoner of fear. It is fear that henceforth reigns over him. â ”Jean Amery At the Mind s Limits is the story of one man s incredible struggle to understand the reality of horror. In five autobiographical essays, Amery describes his survivalâ ”mental, moral, and physicalâ ”through the enormity of the Holocaust. Above all, this masterful record of introspection tells of a young Viennese intellectual s fervent vision of human nature and the betrayal of that vision.

At Home at Highclere - Lady Carnarvon
Join Lady Carnarvon and discover the fascinating life behind the scenes at the real Downton Abbey . A gorgeous book with beautiful photos, and a historical document to boot. - Steve WrightLady Carnarvon s love of history is richly rewarded at Highclere Castle with its mine of family records going back some 300 years. She has delved into the archives to create a book that invites you inside the Castle, past and present.Throughout the centuries, Highclere has welcomed Royalty, Statesmen, Egyptologists and pioneers of technology along with men and women from the worlds of music, art and letters. The etiquette of the invitation, the balance of guests at a weekend house party, their placement at dinners, and the entertainment of friends, as well as the domestic management required to execute the perfect occasion, have all preoccupied successive generations of châtelaines.This book tells the story four real life weekends - from 1866 to 1936 - when the great and the good gathered at Highclere to change the world in some large or small part. It then reflects on how the current Countess entertains At Home at Highclere today.Each weekend showcases the life of the house, both upstairs with the rich and famous and below stairs with the staff and employees. You are transported to a world where guests were collected from the long since defunct Highclere Station in carriages or later in the earliest cars having had the train stop specifically for them and where the allocation of the most prestigious bedrooms really did matter.It looks at what should be served for dinner, the hot topics of conversation and gossip, traditional breakfasts and shooting parties with the Prince of Wales. She explores how menus were, and still are now, put together with the chef, what were the de rigueur cocktails of the day (and why) - and how to make them at home wherever you are.Each chapter will explore some of the recipes and, where practical, have adaptations and photos of the recipes which can be cooked in today s kitchens. Many recipes are little-changed to this day and Lady Carnarvon shares her commentary on their context at Highclere. Highclere works hard to steer a steady course in today s world, but the Castle was built for entertainment and pleasure, for convivial weekends. I hope this book gives a glimpse inside a great house, with mouth-watering recipes, eye-catching photographs and fascinating stories about some of the remarkable people who have stayed here. - Lady Carnarvon
