Navigating the space between dreams and reality. The word "Lacuna" is Latin in origin and means "an unfilled space or gap".

Book Description
Change Happens. Some of us turn our head in denial. Others welcome new opportunities and horizons. Regardless, change comes to us all ... in our careers, our relationships, and throughout life. Carol Vecchio has helped thousands of people navigate these periods of ambiguity for over 30 years. From assisting students at New York University to creating the successful Centerpoint Institute for Life and Career Renewal in her beloved Seattle, Carol clears the fog hovering around change, so we can listen, learn, and direct our own transitions. "Uncertainty is a quality to be cherished, therefore-if not for it, who would dare to undertake anything?" -August de Villiers de L'Isle-Adam With warmth, humor, and sincerity, Carol Vecchio provides a clear understanding of the natural cycles of change and guides us in defining our distinct needs and wants. Carol candidly shares her own personal experiences, and the many "a-ha" moments of those who have chosen Centerpoint Institute over the years. Her words resonate and inspire reflection, passion, and creativity-they provide the much needed comfort to navigate our own "Time Between Dreams." "Carol's warmth, excitement and insights experienced within her trainings fill each chapter to help us reimagine our choices while designing a life. The Time Between Dreams accelerates movement, honors our differences, and provides essential insights to help us live with passion, purpose and kindness. A must read for those seeking and promoting how to embrace our life's seasons, and our career cycles while fitting our jobs into days which support our lives " Rich Feller Ph.D, President of the National Career Development Association, and University Distinguished Teaching Scholar, Colorado State University "Carol Vecchio has created the kind of book I'll turn to time and again, whenever life or work signals that something is about to shift. If change is the one constant, this book should be your constant companion."

Rocket Dreams
Author: Marina Benjamin
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 0743254171
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
In 1958, mankind's centuries-long flirtation with space flight became a torrid love affair. For a decade, tens of millions of people were enraptured -- first, by the U.S.-Soviet race to the moon, and finally, as America outstripped its rival, by Project Apollo alone. It is now more than three decades since the last man walked on the moon...more time than between the first moonwalk and the beginning of World War II. Apollo did not, as had been promised by a generation of visionaries, herald the beginning of the Space Age, but its end. Or did it? Project Apollo, like a cannonball, reached its apogee and returned to earth, but the trajectory of that return was complex. America's atmosphere -- its economic, scientific, and cultural atmosphere -- made for a very complicated reentry that produced many solutions to the trajectory problem. Rocket Dreams is about those solutions...about the places where the space program landed. In Rocket Dreams, an extraordinarily talented young writer named Marina Benjamin will take you on a journey to those landing sites. A visit with retired astronauts at a celebrity autograph show is a starting point down the divergent paths taken by the pioneers, including Edgar Mitchell, founder of the "church" of Noëtic Sciences. Roswell, New Mexico is a landing site of a different order, the "magnetic north" of UFO belief in the United States -- a belief that began its most dramatic growth precisely at the time that the path of the space program began its descent. In the vernacular, the third law of motion states that what goes up, must come down. Thus the tremendous motive force that energized the space program didn't just vanish; it was conserved and transformed, making bestsellers out of fantasy literature, spawning Gaia, and giving symbolism to the environmental movement. Everything from the pop cultural boom in ufology to the worldwide Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) feeds on the energy given off by America's leap toward space. Rocket Dreams is an eloquent tour of this Apollo-scarred landscape. It is also an introduction to some of the most fascinating characters imaginable: Some long dead, like the crackpot visionary Alfred Lawson, who saw in space flight a new stage of human evolution ("Alti-Man"), or Robert Goddard, the father of rocketry, whose workshop in Roswell stands only half a mile from shops selling posters of alien visitors. Others are very much alive -- like Stewart Brand, creator of the Whole Earth Catalog and partner with Gerard O'Neill in the drive to build free-floating space colonies, and SETI astronomer Seth Shostak, who has spent decades listening to the skies, hoping for the first contact with another intelligent species. Perceptive, original, and wonderfully written, informed by history, science, and an acute knowledge of popular culture, Rocket Dreams is a brilliant book by a remarkable talent.

Liminal Dreaming
Author: Jennifer Dumpert
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1623173051
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
A consciousness and dream hacker explains how to use liminal dreaming—the dreams that come between sleep and waking—for self-actualization and consciousness expansion. At the edges of consciousness, between waking and sleeping, there’s a swirling, free associative state of mind that is the domain of liminal dreams. Working with liminal dreams can improve sleep, mitigate anxiety and depression, help to heal trauma, and aid creativity and problem-solving. As we sink into slumber, we pass through hypnagogia, the first of the two liminal dream states. In this transitional zone, memories, perceptions, and imaginings arise in a fast moving, hallucinatory, semi-conscious remix. On the other end of the night, as we wake, we experience hypnopompia—the hazy, pleasant, drift that is the other liminal dream state. Readers of Liminal Dreaming will learn step-by-step how to create a dream practice outside of REM-sleep states that they can incorporate into their lives in personally meaningful ways. Liminal dreaming practice is also far easier to learn than lucid dreaming practice, making it possible for the reader to begin working with these dreams this very night.

Fairy Tales and Space Dreams
Author: Jasmine Shea Townsend
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780578457406
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
A collection of fantasy and science fiction shorts. "Fairy Tales and Space Dreams" is a fantasy and science fiction anthology containing three fantasy and three sci-fi stories. The synopses of each story are as follows: "Princess Snow White" is a retelling of Snow White whereas she has hair as white as snow and skin as black as ebony, rather than the other way around. Although the original fairy tale lends this story its bones, this version of Snow White deals with the idea of Afrocentric beauty as an acceptable standard, as opposed to Eurocentric beauty being the only standard. "The Sea and the Stars" is a queer love story between a mermaid wallflowering at a party and a star that's fallen from the sky."Rapunzel the Night Maiden" is a retelling in which Rapunzel finds out a secret about her identity and goes on an adventure to find her people. "Omega Star Genesis" takes place far in the future, when humans are making a mass exodus from a dying Earth to flee a deadly virus. They are on a 10-year trip to Alpha Centauri when the Captain finds out their head engineer is building illegal A.I.s"The Cosmic Adventures of Sophie Zetyld" follows River, an ordinary grad student living an ordinary life in the suburbs when a comet is spotted soaring over his town. He later finds out that that wasn't a comet at all. It was an omni-dimensional space being named Sophie, who's come to let him know that he's been chosen to help save the world."Evangelina's Dream" is mainly an epilogue to "Sophie Zetyld." Not much can be said without giving anything away, but the reader will be in for a trippy ride.
