DOWNLOAD EBOOKDo you have the courage to explore yourself with total honesty; to accept yourself, soul through bone; to ignore conventional expectations and be true to your inner Self, no matter what?In her debut memoir, Running Into Myself, Thea Euryphaessa revealed how a seemingly random impulse to sign her unfit, overweight body onto three marathons helped her to overcome depression and abandon the well-worn road of the mundane 9-to-5 for the rockier path of the more meaningful unknown.Now, Growing into MySelf follows her as she comes full circle in her transformational Hero’s Journey, submitting to the deeper, darker realm of soul, sex, and an uncertain relationship, framed by a series of five Tantra workshops that Thea undertakes over the course of eighteen months.Continuing to explore myth, archetypes, dreams, and depth psychology, Thea learns to surrender to the body’s wisdom while also embracing intellect in her quest to become sexually confident and psychologically whole—in short, a woman of substance.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBrings the science of biological anthropology to bear on understanding how our evolutionary history has shaped a phenomenon everyone has experienced – childhood. Tracking deep into our evolutionary history, anthropological science has begun to unravel one particular feature that sets us apart from the many, many animals that came before us – our uniquely long childhoods. Growing Up Human looks at how we have diverged from our ancestral roots to stay 'forever young' – or at least what seems like forever – and how the evolution of childhood is a critical part of the human story. Beginning with a look at the ways animals invest in their offspring, the book moves through the many steps of making a baby, from pair-bonding to hidden ovulation, points where our species has repeatedly stepped off the standard primate path. From the mystery of monogamy to the minefield of modern parenting advice, biological anthropologist Brenna Hassett reveals how differences between humans and our closest cousins lead to our messy mating systems, dangerous pregnancies, and difficult births, and what these tell us about the kind of babies we are trying to build. Using observations of our closest primate relatives, the tiny relics of childhood that come to us from the archaeological record, and the bones and teeth of our ancestors, science has started to unravel the evolution of our childhood right down the fossil record. In our species investment doesn't stop at birth, and as Growing Up Human reveals, we can compare every aspect of our care and feeding, from the chemical composition of our milk to our fondness for formal education from ancient times onwards, in order to understand just what we evolved our weird and wonderful childhoods for.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe title He Who Climbs a Tree and Hollers is a line taken from the little ditty "He who has a thing to sell and goes and whispers in a well is not as apt to get the dollars as he who climbs a tree and hollers." This is the incredible life story of John J. "Jack" Gargan, an ordinary guy who led an extraordinary life of adventure, involvement, and accomplishment. His long and productive life required four volumes to chronicle. It begins with a childhood of poverty and hardship during the Great Depression of the 1930s and culminates at age eighty-six with him and his young Thai wife in a daring flight for life from sadistic Thai gangsters. They fled with only the clothes on their backs, a small stash of silver coins, and a cocked and loaded .32 Colt revolver at their feet! In between volumes I and IV are involvements in business and politics, bringing him national and international fame and fortune. He counts such familiar icons as Ross Perot, Donald Trump, Jesse Ventura, Joan Rivers, and Jeb Bush among his circle of friends and acquaintances. It's been said that every person will have fifteen minutes of fame in their lifetime, but how many ordinary folks do you know of who can account for more than a dozen incidents of celebrity? These range from local to statewide, to national, to at least five worldwide celebrity experiences. Exposures range from being Time magazine's "Hero of the Week" to inclusion in his high school hall of fame to founding the world's largest and premier professional association for financial consultants. This is a rags-to-riches-and-back-to-rags-again story like none other you have ever heard of!

Cracked Eggs and Chicken Soup - A Memoir of Growing Up Between The Wars

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this revealing memoir of childhood, the author shows not only what affected his family, but also reveals a large slice of social history concerning the lives of all ordinary working-class people struggling to live in the slums of the East End of London in those pre-Welfare State days. He writes with sympathy, and sometimes anger, of the overcrowded houses with families of anything up to eight children, as his own had, living in just two or three rooms with outside W.C. and water tap; of the reliance on charity and the soup kitchen for food; of trying to eke out what little income they had by buying stale bread and cracked eggs or other cheap food from the many itinerant street sellers. Yet this is also a chronicle of what was a turbulent time in British history, and especially in the East End, with its then still large Jewish and Irish populations. So here too is an eyewitness account of the Depression, and of the provocative marches by Sir Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists through the area, culminating in the Battle of Cable Street that saw the marchers turned back by the efforts of Jewish, Irish, communist and socialist protestors. Above all, however, Norman Jacobs writes with affection of the area and its extraordinary mix of peoples, as well as the now-vanished aspects of everyday life, such as the music hall, the two-valve radio, and the first Cup Final to be played at Wembley.
