With a degree in business administration and a career as a residential superintendent, Jamari has honed the art of balancing responsibility and personal growth. His passion for empowering men to take ownership of their lives is woven into every page of his writing, offering practical insights drawn from real-world experience.

This edited volume focuses on women’s empowerment for a sustainable future. It takes cultural and transcultural and positive psychology perspectives into consideration and explores the topic of women’s empowerment from diverse stances, across social strata, cultural divides as well as economic and political divisions. It addresses the critique of the overly Western focus of positive psychology on this topic by adopting a transnational and transcultural lens, and by taking non-WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, Democratic) samples into in-depth consideration. The chapters therefore focus on women from diverse socio-cultural, political, socio-economic backgrounds and discuss their ways of empowering others and being empowered. They also discuss related positive psychology constructs, such as: coping, resilience, transformation, growth, leadership, creativity, identity development, sustainable action, as well as positive socio-economic, political and eco-sustainable thought and action. The volume as a whole looks at women's leadership as a factor of empowerment. A further fundamental assumption is that women’s empowerment is needed to create a sustainable future at micro-, meso- and macro levels, which presumes safety, peace, ecological considerations, and compassionate leadership.

This is a book of permission slips but not for scout hikes or eighth-grade field trips. These give you permission to own the thoughts and feelings that you may already secretly harbor but never knew you were even allowed to consider. You may already have had rebellious thoughts about other people's expectations of you, but quickly squelched them in order not to disappoint. You may have imagined that God might be quite different from what was taught in your home and your culture, but never felt comfortable expressing your beliefs. Get Out of the Box and Discover Your Life is a liberating look at ideas that could open up the excitement of discovery in your life even if your society's rules have blocked you from entertaining these ideas until now. Learn how you can help save Earth and its people from ongoing deterioration by changing your own energy field. This can be done only if you can remove the mental shackles that your tribal rules have fettered you with.

Make Bad Art. Make Messy Art. Make Art that Heals You, Grounds You and Inspires You to Have More Compassion for Your Body and Yourself. You are inherently creative. Yes, you. Even if you’ve never picked up a paintbrush before, registered art therapist Ashlee Bennett will teach you how to reclaim your creativity and make amends with your body using art. In our image-obsessed society, it’s easy to be bogged down by the negative messaging that you’re not enough, that your creativity and self-expression aren’t “right” and that your body isn’t worthy of love and respect. But Ashlee sees the falsehood in those messages and is here to guide you to a place of greater compassion, acceptance and connection with your body and your inner self. Therapeutic art exercises give you unconditional permission to express yourself. Creating a sensations map helps you connect your body and mind, forming sculptures allows you to represent your inner qualities using clay and making a collage gives you the opportunity to express the way you wish media reflected bodies and appearance. The goal isn’t to create art worthy of a museum or even your refrigerator door—the goal is to use art as a way to reconnect with your body, reject harmful beauty standards enforced by our society and learn that you are worthy of taking up space, just the way you are.
