Customize Your Diet to Your Own Unique Body Chemistry

For hereditary reasons, your metabolism is unique. Cutting-edge research shows that no single diet works well for everyone–the very same foods that keep your best friend slim may keep you overweight and feeling unhealthy and fatigued. Now, William Wolcott, a pioneer in the field of metabolic research, has developed a revolutionary weight-loss program that allows you to identify your "metabolic type" and create a diet that suits your individual nutritional needs.

In The Metabolic Typing Diet, Wolcott and acclaimed science writer Trish Fahey provide simple self-tests that you can use to discover your own metabolic type and determine what kind of diet will work best for you. It might be a low-fat, high carbohydrate diet filled with pasta and grains, or a high-fat, high-protein diet focused on meat and seafood, or anything in between. By detailing exactly which foods and food combinations are right for you, The Metabolic Typing Diet at last reveals the secret to shedding unwanted pounds and achieving optimum vitality with lasting results.

The Metabolic Typing Diet will enable you to:
- Achieve and maintain your ideal weight
- Eliminate sugar cravings
- Enjoy sustained energy and endurance
- Conquer indigestion, fatigue, and allergies
- Bolster your immune system
- Overcome anxiety, depression, and mood swings

Most people "throw out" their back and think that's why their back hurts, but nothing could be further from this truth. Discover underlying, hidden, causes of back pain-where pain really comes from and how to stop in once and for all fast. Popular treatment approaches like pain medications, muscle relaxants, steroid injections, surgery, chiropractic treatments, acupuncture, and massage therapy may be helpful in relieving pain temporarily, but they often fail to deliver lasting relief because they don't address what's actually causing the pain. The "secret" to fast, long lasting relief is to focus your treatment on addressing the "hidden" causes of your pain, not just the symptoms, and The 7-Day Back Pain Cure shows you how.

Beschrijving van de zeven energiecentra in het menselijk lichaam, die van belang zijn voor onze energiehuishouding.

We live in a time of massive institutional failure, one that requires a new consciousnessand a new collective leadership capacity. In this groundbreaking book, OttoScharmer invites us to see the world in new ways and in so doing discover a revolutionaryapproach to leadership.What we pay attention to and how we pay attention is key to what we create. Whatprevents us from attending to situations more effectively is our blind spot, the innerplace from which our attention and intention originate. It is blind because we areunaware of how it functions and the enormous influence it has on our perceptionsand hence our actions. By moving through Scharmer's U process, we consciouslyaccess the blind spot and learn to connect to our authentic Self -- the deepestsource of knowledge and inspiration -- in the realm of "presencing," a term coinedby Scharmer that combines the concepts of presence and sensing. Here we are ableto pay attention in a way that allows us to experience the opening of our minds, ourhearts, and our wills. Through this process we shift our awareness, connect withour best future possibility, and gain the ability to realize it.Based on ten years of research and action learning and interviews with over 150practitioners and thought leaders, Theory U develops and explores a new territoryof scientific research, institutional change, and transformational leadership practice.In exploring the complex dynamics of the blind spot, Scharmer shares muchfromhis own personal and professional life and draws from a rich diversity of compellingstories and examples. And he includes dozens of exercises and practices that allowleaders -- and entire organizations -- to participate fully in creating and bringing forththe future that is seeking to emerge through us."Scharmer's Theory U model of how to open our mind, emotions, and will tomoments of discovery and mutual understanding is profound and much needed." (Edgar Schein, Sloan Fellows Professor of Management Emeritus, MIT Sloan School of Management)"Pushes the envelope of current leadership wisdom and invites you to explore thestrongest leadership tool there is: yourself."

Known only for the virtues of its sexual practice, ancient Tantric ideology is a universal and wide-reaching ideology virtually ignored in the West. In Tantra: The Cult of the Feminine, one of Europe's foremost Tantric authors and teachers, Andre Van Lysebeth, gives readers a balanced, well-informed, modern examination of the secret teachings and symbolism of Tantra. Espousing no dogma, Tantra involves a search for reality that contradicts neither science nor religion. For Tantra, all of the myriad energy forms in the universe -- gravity, nuclear cohesion, electromagnetism -- exist throughout the cosmos. "Scientifically speaking, the universe is a gigantic continuum ranging from sub-atomic to astronomical dimensions. Tantrists have perceived this unity for over thirty-five centuries," points out van Lysebeth in his introduction. Originally published in 1992, Tantra has become the classic text on the subject, the source for serious students. Eight full-color illustrations and 36 line drawings complement a comprehensive and contemporary explanation of Tantra, complete with meditations. Andre does a remarkable job of bringing ancient theories into the modern world.

In In an Unspoken Voice, renowned trauma expert Peter A. Levine, PhD, reveals how the body holds the key to recovering from complex trauma and experiences that overwhelm our nervous systems, from adverse childhood experiences to PTSD . Drawing on decades of clinical practice, personal stories, case studies, and trauma science, Dr. Levine shows that trauma can be healed—if we can learn to listen to our bodies’ innate, unspoken wisdom. Through vivid accounts, from his own near-fatal accident to the journeys of clients grappling with their own traumas and scars, you’ll learn how our nervous systems respond to threat; why trauma can leave us “stuck” in fear and numbness, and, most importantly, how to restore resilience and heal toward empowered, mind-body wholeness. This book explains:

• How shaking, trembling, and instinctive movements are essential embodied responses—and can help us release trauma safely and effectively
• The biological “map” of flight, flight, freeze, and collapse—and how to break free from paralyzing experiences of fear and trauma
• Practical steps and evidence-based exercises to help you gently discharge survival energy
• How to reawaken your natural capacity for self-regulation
• The SIBAM—Sensation, Image, Behavior, Affect, and Meaning—model for integrating fragmented experiences
• Real-life wisdom and insights from case studies of survivors

In an Unspoken Voice is a compassionate, deeply human, and revelatory look at trauma and what it takes to heal—and shows you that you already have the embodied tools and wisdom to do so.
