It’s not about willpower, and it’s not about the food. Most people blame their eating behaviors on a lack of willpower. Eating intuitively hasn’t worked. Eating less and moving more? Trying to change your body image? These only last so long. Many people are worried that they can never have a healthy relationship with food. Peace with Self, Peace with Food looks past all that, and gets to the heart of what causes our battles with food. Through her years of training and practice in trauma healing — as well as her own reconciliation with food and self — Galina Denzel has developed a program to help readers embark on their own journey to healing. Personal and ancestral traumas inform behaviors around food, and Peace with Self, Peace with Food will help you identify patterns laid down even before you were born. Patterns that have long contributed to your eating behaviors, and continue to affect your relationship with food today. Through the exercises in Peace with Self, Peace with Food you will come to understand your eating habits and the neurobiological network that has held them in place until now. What’s more, you will see food, your mind, and your body in a new light. Not as enemies to be tamed, but as allies that can teach you how to care for yourself, and for your health, with love.

In the second installment of the bestselling Glittering Court series, Richelle Mead goes beyond the glitz and glamour, delving into the dark, political underbelly of their world through the eyes of one girl who dares to fight for her freedom. A refugee of war, Mira was cast out of her home country and thrust into another, where the conditions were inhospitable at best. In a life-altering twist of fate, she is given the chance to escape once more, and she takes it, joining the Glittering Court. For a select group of girls, the Glittering Court offers a shot at a life they’ve only ever dreamed of, one of luxury, glamour, and leisure. But for Mira, it means further persecution, not only from her fellow Glittering Court jewels, but from her suitors, as well--men she would potentially be expected to give her life to. By day, she goes through the motions, learning the etiquette and customs that will help to earn her anonymity, even making a couple true friends in the process, the forthright ladies' maid Adelaide and the ambitious laundress Tamsin. But by night, Mira hatches a different plan entirely--one that, if exposed, could get her hanged in the highest court of Adoria. Midnight Jewel is the extraordinary story of a girl with few options who courageously forges a new path, finding love, passion, lifelong friendships, and maybe even a way to freedom.

Black Tear Society is the autobiographical memoir of a young woman who knows, has seen, and has heard too much. Tajuana Simpson wrote this book after realizing that she needed an outlet or else she might lose her sanity. She had become tired of being tired. However, she was then unaware of her root problem, that she lacked the experience of having a real father. Her childhood memories were clouded by the violence and dysfunction which her biological father brought on her family before he abandoned them. As an adult, Ms. Simpson worked, was an able single parent, and truly appeared normal in others' eyes. However, she increasingly found that when others were happy around her, she was sad, and when others were sad, she was happy. "It appeared" There was a tear that stayed on her face for several years, one that you couldn't see or touch. In order to conquer this sadness, she had to write Black Tear Society. This book points out the shame of those who hide behind false exteriors and fail to own up to interior, self-based issues. It deals with ones who stay in the window and never take a look in the mirror or try to gain understanding. Ms. Simpson has realized that a nation of people is crying out for help with a black tear, and wondering if the unhappiness will ever go away.......
