Book Description
Jazz Thornton first attempted to take her own life at the age of 12. Multiple attempts followed and she spent time in psychiatric wards and under medical supervision as she rode the rollercoaster of depression and anxiety through her teenage years - yet the attempts continued. Find out what Jazz learned about how her negative thought patterns came to be, and how she turned those thoughts - and her life - around. Who and what helped, and what didn't help. The insights she gives will help create greater understanding of those grappling with mental illness, and those around them who desperately want to help. Jazz went on to attend film school, and to co-found Voices of Hope, a non-profit organisation dedicated to helping those with mental health issues and show them there is a way forward. She creates online content to provide hope and help. Her first video Dear Suicidal Me has had over 80 million views all around the world. She went on to create Jessica's Tree, a web series that follows the 24 hours between a friend, Jess, going missing and the discovery of her body. It provides insights into Jessica's struggles, to help people better understand those suffering from depression. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QFU_qg7Msk Jessica's Tree was viewed more than 230,000 times in the two months following its release in March 2019 and immediately began winning international recognition and awards. The process and the delicate decisions that had to be made to create Jessica's Tree have themselves been documented in a film about Jazz called The Girl on the Bridge, due for release early in 2020.

Book Description
One of the most iconic, beloved, and bestselling books of our time from the bestselling author of City of Girls and Big Magic, Elizabeth Gilbert. Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat Pray Love touched the world and changed countless lives, inspiring and empowering millions of readers to search for their own best selves. Now, this beloved and iconic book returns in a beautiful 10th anniversary edition, complete with an updated introduction from the author, to launch a whole new generation of fans. In her early thirties, Elizabeth Gilbert had everything a modern American woman was supposed to want—husband, country home, successful career—but instead of feeling happy and fulfilled, she was consumed by panic and confusion. This wise and rapturous book is the story of how she left behind all these outward marks of success, and set out to explore three different aspects of her nature, against the backdrop of three different cultures: pleasure in Italy, devotion in India, and on the Indonesian island of Bali, a balance between worldly enjoyment and divine transcendence.

What happens when the devil attacks your strength and shapes it into a weakness? J.D. Danny McCabe maintained a loving relationship with his wife for nearly twenty years before the underpinnings of their marriage, family, and world began to crumble. Their foundation had always been rooted in the mantra that trust is the bedrock of a healthy relationship. Indeed, Erin had always claimed that things wouldn't -- couldn't -- work without trust. But one day, for reasons Danny could not fathom, Erin became suspicious of his every move. Phone calls, text messages, and work emails were manufactured into proof of infidelity, drug addiction, and a network of lies. She enlisted her mother in her efforts, and together they forged the words of family, trust and honesty into a metaphorical hammer and beat him into the ground. Their accusations accumulated, twisting reality, and eventually resulting in Danny s involuntary hospitalization. Danny was pushed to the edge and was damn near ready to jump. Then, God intervened. Erin s shocking revelation, her Third Gift, lit the blind spots in his marriage that Danny had never been able to reconcile.

Book Description
COULD I MANIFEST SOMEONE BREAKING UP WITH ME? Nothing major happened that led me to thinking about this question other than a commitment I made to learn how to feel good, and to sustain that feeling no matter what. Since I had spent so much of my time focused on feeling good, I was really starting to notice the things that didn't feel good to me. They were sticking out like the proverbial sore thumb. One of those things was my marriage. It was one of those situations where you know things could be better, but you also know they could be a lot worse. You wonder whether it's worth losing what you have, even if it is mediocre and not what you actually want in your heart of hearts. I kept going back and forth on whether or not he and our relationship were right for me anymore. Some days I felt like we had a good thing going, other days I knew we needed to break up. I had split energy like this going on for months, maybe even years. And that's where that question came from. Could I manifest someone breaking up with me? I wondered this as I thought about how many times that year I had tried to decide for myself whether this was the right person and relationship for me. I always came up short. What I did know was, if he broke up with, that would make things a whole lot easier. The only problem was, I wasn't willing to admit that I actually wanted us to break up. I still had a lot of guilt and serious concern that I was making a mistake. So I decided to do something I had never done before: I asked the Universe to decide for me. That's what lead me to manifesting a divorce six months later--and he broke up with me. F*ck the How tells the story of how I manifested my divorce, and, most importantly, how to apply this same process to literally ANYTHING. This book is the Ultimate HOW--it's the answer for every dream and desire you have that you don't know How you'll make happen. YES, even your crazy, out-there "pipe dreams." Whether you're a creative with big dreams, an overthinker, a control freak, or someone who just gets way too caught up on the How of making your dreams happen, this paradigm-shifting book will help you to set the How aside and get any-freaking-thing that you want. Buy a copy and start your F*ck the How journey today.
