Uden omsvøb eller metafysiske fantasterier præsenterer Eckhart Tolle kernen i det ægte spirituelle budskab: væren i Nuet. Der er en sjælden kraft i hans ord, som giver os glimt af en større virkelighed. En virkelighed vi tager del i, når vi er fuldkomne nærværende og slipper vores stadige grublen over fortiden og bekymring for fremtiden. Eckhart Tolle introducerer begrebet ´smertekroppen´ som betegnelse for summen af de negative følelser som den enkelte har ´sparet sammen´ gennem livet og bærer på. Smertekroppen er sammen med vores identifikation med sindet og tankerne de to største forhindringer for at opnå spirituel frigørelse. Der er en guldgrube af indsigter i Nuets kraft: - Vi er ikke vores sind og tanker - Vi kan finde vej ud af psykologisk smerte - Der er autentisk styrke i at overgive sig - Kroppen er en indgang til totalt nærvær - Stilheden og rummet, der omgiver os, er veje til Nuets kraft - Også parforhold kan fungere som en nøgle, når de bruges til at blive mere bevidste og dermed mere kærlige. Tolle springer alle meditative og terapeutiske ´mellemled´ over og arbejder i stedet med direkte væren i nuet - identifikation med den iagttagende bevidsthed, der er vidne til sind, krop og følelser.

'Mate's book will make you examine your behaviour in a new light' Guardian'bold, wise and deeply moral. [Mate] is a healer to be cherished' Naomi Klein, author of No Logo and The Shock DoctrineChildren take their lead from their friends: being 'cool' matters more than anything else. Shaping values, identity and codes of behaviour, peer groups are often far more influential than parents.But this situation is far from natural, and it can be dangerous - it undermines family cohesion, interferes with healthy development, and fosters a hostile and sexualized youth culture. Children end up becoming conformist, anxious and alienated. In Hold on to Your Kids, acclaimed physician and bestselling author Gabor Mate joins forces with Gordon Neufeld, a psychologist with a reputation for penetrating to the heart of complex parenting.Together they pinpoint the causes of this breakdown and offer practical advice on how to 'reattach' to sons and daughters, establish the hierarchy at home, make children feel safe and understood, and earn back your children's loyalty and love. This updated edition also addresses the unprecedented parenting challenges posed by the rise of digital devices and social media. By helping to reawaken our instincts, Mate and Neufeld empower parents to be what nature intended: a true source of contact, security and warmth for their children.

In The Road to Character David Brooks, best-selling author of The Social Animal and New York Times columnist, explains why selflessness leads to greater successYou could say there are two kinds of virtues in the world, the r sum virtues and the eulogy virtues. The r sum virtues are the ones you list on your CV, the skills that contribute to external success. The eulogy virtues are deeper. They're what get talked about at your funeral and they are usually the virtues that exist at the core of your being - whether you are kind, brave, honest or faithful, what kind of relationships you formed over your lifetime.In this urgent and soul-searching book, David Brooks explores the road to character. We live in a culture that encourages us to think about how to be wealthy and successful, but which leaves many of us inarticulate about how to cultivate the deepest inner life. We know that this deeper life matters, but it becomes subsumed by the day-to-day, and the deepest parts of who we are go unexplored and unstructured. The Road to Character connects us once again to an ancient moral tradition, a tradition that asks us to confront our own weaknesses and grow in response, rather than shallowly focus on our good points. It is a focus David Brooks believes all of us - including himself - need to reconnect with now.Telling the stories of people through history who have exemplified the different activities that contribute to a deeper existence, Brooks uses the diverse lives of individuals such as George Eliot, Dwight Eisenhower and Augustine to explore traits such as self-mastery, dignity, vocation and love. He hopes that through considering their lives it will fire the longing we all have to be better, to find the path to character. David Brooks is a columnist for The New York Times and frequent broadcaster. His previous books include the bestsellers The Social Animal and Bobos in Paradise. His New York Times columns reach over 800,000 readers across the globe.

Krisen der forandrede mit liv er 12 hudløst ærlige fortællinger fra 12 vidt forskellige mænd med vidt forskellige liv. Mændene fortæller om deres liv, og den krise der forandrede det. Og de giver de manderåd, de selv kunne have ønsket sig. Det er ikke kun en bog om terapi, men om mænd, som tager ansvar og gør det, der skal til for at skabe den forandring, de ønsker sig. En forandring til mere indre fred, mere kærlighed og en ny og bedre balance i tilværelsen. For hvad gør man som voksen mand, når livet gør ondt, og man har lært, at store drenge ikke græder? At stærke mænd med styr på karrieren ikke går ned. At voksne mænd ikke søger hjælp? Mange går i hulen, finder måske en løsning og kommer videre så godt, som de nu kan. Hvad skal der til, når alt det, man har lært, ikke virker, og man stadigvæk er ked af det? Eller i tvivl? Er blevet forladt? Eller ikke rigtig kan mærke noget? Og hvor går man hen, når ens kone eller venner ikke ved, hvordan de skal hjælpe? Og er man som mand stadig maskulin, når man rækker ud og har brug for en at tale med? Hjælpen kan komme mange steder fra, men den skal som regel komme udefra. Det er sjældent, vi kan løse udfordringerne alene.

In this new edition of his landmark book, Richard Layard shows that there is a paradox at the heart of our lives. Most people want more income. Yet as societies become richer, they do not become happier. This is not just anecdotally true, it is the story told by countless pieces of scientific research. We now have sophisticated ways of measuring how happy people are, and all the evidence shows that on average people have grown no happier in the last fifty years, even as average incomes have more than doubled. In fact, the First World has more depression, more alcoholism and more crime than fifty years ago. This paradox is true of Britain, the United States, continental Europe, and Japan. What is going on? Now fully revised and updated to include developments since first publication, Layard answers his critics in what is still the key book in 'happiness studies'.
