Book Description
DELUXE EDITION—INCLUDES EXCLUSIVE AUTHOR VIDEOS Pain doesn’t last always Sometimes only for a night Try not to resist It hurts the more we fight Overcoming life’s difficulties is daunting. At times, it seems the burdens that we bear are too painful to overcome. They keep us from even trying to accomplish the things we want most. It seems the only way to outlast the pain is to ignore it, when, in truth, the only way to discover the unlimited potential inside of us all is to embrace the pain, face the Authentic Self at our core, and use the strength therein to triumph over any obstruction in our way. Based on his powerful, true journey from a childhood rife with poverty, incarceration, addiction and rage to the successful adult life he achieved, award-winning performer, writer, and motivational speaker Daniel Beaty presents the tools that readers need to overcome any obstacle and tap into their full capabilities. By outlining an alternative mode of thinking, especially for the modern African-American man bombarded by negative stereotypes in the media, Beaty empowers the individual and encourages readers of all backgrounds to learn from their cultural and family heritage while forgiving and letting go of the negative so that only the positive remains. Beaty’s story, supported by deeply personal advice from notable mentors such as Bill Cosby, Leontyne Price, Sydney Poitier, Ossie Davis, and Ruby Dee, serves as a strong reminder that success is ultimately possible, not in spite of struggles but as a result of lessons learned and power drawn from those lessons.

Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 479
Book Description
This deluxe edition of Retox includes exclusive videos of yoga poses and sequences, audio meditations, and healthy meal cooking demonstrations that can be applied to even the busiest active lifestyles. A healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to be built around self-deprivation, hours of meditation, and strict dietary restrictions. In fact, these tactics almost never work—at least not for long. But that doesn’t mean health and happiness are unobtainable. Most often you just need an anxiety buster you can do while running down the street. Or a yoga pose you can do at your desk. Or a way to debloat what feels like an alien baby in your abdomen. Retox isn’t about changing who you are or denying life’s pleasures. It’s about tailoring sensible, scientifically-based health practices to the life you already live. It’s about working hard, playing harder, and renewing your balance and energy so you can do it all again. In Retox, health expert Lauren Imparato strips yoga down to its anatomical principles, offering practical tips for fast relief. Then, drawing from a variety of disciplines—from psychology to nutrition to Tibetan philosophy—she designs no-nonsense strategies and delicious recipes to combat the most common challenges of modern life: • Stress and anxiety • Low energy • Back pain and headaches • Hangovers • PMS • Sleep Deprivation • And much more…

Pages : 225
Book Description
This deluxe edition of Invincible includes the Children of Domestic Violence award-winning documentary film, THE CHILDREN NEXT DOOR, previously only available through select screenings. “It’s a masterpiece – smart, tough, fearless, and miraculously compact.” – The Stranger In•vin•ci•ble: incapable of being overcome “When you grow up living with domestic violence, witnessing those you love tear each other down with physical and verbal blows, your brain doesn’t know how to deal with that.”—From the Foreword According to UNICEF, growing up with domestic violence is one of the most pervasive human rights violations in the world, affecting more than a billion people. Yet, too few people are aware of the profound impact it can have. Invincible seeks to change this lack of awareness and understanding with a compelling look at this important issue, informing and inspiring anyone who grew up living with domestic violence—and those who love them, work with them, teach them, and mentor them. Through powerful first-person stories, including the author’s own experiences, as well as insightful commentary based on the most recent social science and psychology research, Invincible not only offers a deeper understanding of the concerns and challenges of domestic violence, but also provides proven strategies everyone can use to reclaim their lives and futures. What did you learn growing up with domestic violence? Do you know how this has had an impact on your life? How have you dealt with it? Today, are there certain things about yourself that you wish weren’t true? Many of them aren’t. They are lies you learned. Invincible exposes the lies, reveals the truths, and offers the insight and the skills you need to go from feeling and acting: Guilty to Free Resentful to Compassionate Sad to Grateful Angry to Passionate Hopeless to Guided Worthless to Accomplished Fearful to Confident Self-Conscious to Attractive Unloved to Loved The truth is, no obstacle you will ever face can compare to what you went through as a child and have already conquered. The author is donating all net royalties to the Children of Domestic Violence Foundation (CDV).

Chasing the Sun Deluxe
Author: Juanes
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101639598
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
The deluxe e-book edition of Chasing the Sun includes rare, behind-the-scenes video footage of superstar Juanes’s early career, shows and concerts, recordings, personal life, and more. Interspersed throughout the text are exclusive interview clips that further explore the passion and truth found in Juanes’s words and offer a true glimpse of the man behind the music. “I’m doing what I believe I was brought to this world to do: to create music that raises awareness, renews hearts, and generates change. I’ll continue looking to the stars and traveling the globe as God permits me. And I hope I have many years left to connect through art, to play my guitar, and to continue chasing the sun.”—Juanes In Chasing the Sun, the international music icon and humanitarian shares the incredible story of his life and how music and faith guided his path. In his own un-adulterated words, and with visually arresting images throughout—some of them never before seen—Juanes imparts his defining moments from childhood to present day, reflecting on his spiritual and musical journey and the personal and professional experiences that shaped the man he is today. Born and raised in Colombia, Juanes developed his deep love of music from his family and learned to play guitar at an early age. By age sixteen, he became a founding member, lead guitarist, vocalist, and song-writer for Ekhymosis, which went on to become Colombia’s leading hard-rock band. However, it was his career as a solo artist that propelled him toward international superstardom. With great honesty, Juanes reveals how his times of glory were often intersected by times of doubt and soul-searching and how remaining true to his beliefs and passionate about his art gave him the strength and foresight to reinvent himself and his career. While his role as a recording artist is well documented, the very private Juanes has never opened up in his own words—until now.
