Connected
Author: Nicholas A. Christakis
Publisher: Little, Brown Spark
ISBN: 031607134X
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Celebrated scientists Nicholas Christakis and James Fowler explain the amazing power of social networks and our profound influence on one another's lives. Your colleague's husband's sister can make you fat, even if you don't know her. A happy neighbor has more impact on your happiness than a happy spouse. These startling revelations of how much we truly influence one another are revealed in the studies of Dr. Christakis and Fowler, which have repeatedly made front-page news nationwide. In Connected, the authors explain why emotions are contagious, how health behaviors spread, why the rich get richer, even how we find and choose our partners. Intriguing and entertaining, Connected overturns the notion of the individual and provides a revolutionary paradigm-that social networks influence our ideas, emotions, health, relationships, behavior, politics, and much more. It will change the way we think about every aspect of our lives.

Living with the Stars
Author: Karel Schrijver
Publisher:
ISBN: 0198727437
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
Living with the Stars tells the fascinating story of what truly makes the human body. The body that is with us all our lives is always changing. We are quite literally not who we were years, weeks, or even days ago: our cells die and are replaced by new ones at an astonishing pace. The entire body continually rebuilds itself, time and again, using the food and water that flow through us as fuel and as construction material. What persists over time is not fixed but merely a pattern in flux. We rebuild using elements captured from our surroundings, and are thereby connected to animals and plants around us, and to the bacteria within us that help digest them, and to geological processes such as continental drift and volcanism here on Earth. We are also intimately linked to the Sun's nuclear furnace and to the solar wind, to collisions with asteroids and to the cycles of the birth of stars and their deaths in cataclysmic supernovae, and ultimately to the beginning of the universe. Our bodies are made of the burned out embers of stars that were released into the galaxy in massive explosions billions of years ago, mixed with atoms that formed only recently as ultrafast rays slammed into Earth's atmosphere. All of that is not just remote history but part of us now: our human body is inseparable from nature all around us and intertwined with the history of the universe.

Book Description
Is the doctrine of the Trinity really meant to be understood? Can it be applied to our everyday lives? Sam Allberry shows us that the Trinity really matters, and that this insight God gives us into himself has enormous implications for how we understand him and how we understand ourselves as beings made in his image. The Trinity shows us that God in his oneness is both unique and perfectly integrated. The relational qualities of his triune nature are eternal and foundational to our understanding of the unity and diversity of the church and the equality of and differences between men and women.

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
It’s moving day and just the thought of packing, loading, unloading, unpacking, and starting a new life seems daunting, except this time the move is not to a new house or location. This time, the move is within–a spiritual shift–and you can’t hire or ask anyone else to do it for you. LIVING ENLIGHTENED--THE JOY OF INTEGRATING SPIRIT, MIND AND BODY presents an integrative path to transcending the ego, releasing preconceived ideas, letting go of fears and resentment, and allowing ourselves to become fully immersed in the present moment. As you shift to the joy, peace, wealth and prosperity, overwhelming love and divine intuition, you’ll know you have moved to a new home – only now you’ll be in alignment with the All There Is. Author Elizabeth Cantey had been living a life that seemed happy and prosperous on the outside but one day that life collapsed, leaving her unsure of what true happiness is and where it can be found. Seeking a new life, she looked everywhere yet came up empty time after time. That’s when she realized her “moving day” had arrived. It was now time to move from her familiar life to an enlightened life. Here in this powerful new book you will follow Cantey’s journey as she learned to embrace love, joy, and peace from within, regardless of her outer circumstances. All this from a woman who has walked the path.

A Real Good Life
Author: Stevie Hendrix
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1400240786
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Where are you looking for joy, contentment, and purpose? Stevie and Sazan Hendrix show us that the good life we're looking for won't be found in our latest purchase, achievement, or dream vacation--it's found by intentionally cultivating the simple, everyday moments that make up a real, good life. We say we want "the good life," but that often leads us to constantly chase after the next thing, compare ourselves to others, and feel disconnected and unable to enjoy the good things that are right in front of us. Stevie and Sazan know what it's like to search for the good life and, having achieved "success" at a young age, they know firsthand that the success we think we want isn't what truly satisfies. Even as their careers and social media popularity grew, Stevie and Sazan were still searching for the good life, just like everyone else. What they discovered in that search completely changed how they lived their days––and by extension their lives. In A Real Good Life, you’ll join them on their journey identifying how you can set yourself up for a good day by being intentional with all of your hours; discovering your unique process for building faith and connection in yourself, your home, and your relationships; rethinking your routines so you can establish life rhythms that are sustainable and unique; recognizing that reflecting, focusing, gathering, and resting are crucial values; and inspiring you to see life as a gift that should be cherished every single moment. Slow down and trade the endless cycle of striving and competing for real, good days filled with purposeful reflection, intentional focus, gathering with loved ones, and true rest.
