A Wing and a Prayer: Meditations and Visualizations , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 79min

The winds of uncertainty are always blowing through the world. If we want to experience peace, we must ourselves become more peaceful. To quote Gandhi, "To change the world, we must first be the change we wish to see." When practiced regularly, meditation becomes a vehicle to enter and calm the heart and soul so our personal corner of the world becomes a more peaceful place. This inner peace then emanates like ripples on a lake toward others. Now is the time to enter the heart and bring peace to the world, starting with your own mind. These guided meditations and visualizations were created by stress management expert and bestselling author, Brian Luke Seaward. They are loaded with powerful metaphors which bring about a deep sense of relaxation and inner peace, and provide a supportive foundation for your meditation practice.Meditations include: Above The Clouds: Visiting Aspen, Colorado, I went paragliding into the heavens. In this meditation, you will experience the exhilaration of soaring above the clouds. Dolphin Breath Meditation: While there is no one way to meditate, breathing is considered to be the cornerstone of many meditation practices. This meditation emphasizes "energy breathing" for a more focused, intense meditation experience. The Loving Hug: This visualization cultivates the heart and soul to engage more fully in the process of unconditional love, and reminds us at the deepest level that love is the answer, no matter what the question. World Peace Meditation: As the saying goes, if you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. This visualization provides a strong foundation from which to launch the intention of world peace. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Brian Luke Seaward, Ph.D..

The Sea and the American Imagination.

The Sea and the American Imagination brings together a group of renowned scholars and writers whose contributions attest the ubiquity of the sea in American literature and culture. Writing from a decidedly transatlantic perspective, the 16 authors take a fresh look at both the historical conditions and aesthetic modes by which the sea is wed to the American imagination. The topics of the essays collected here range from Cotton Mather's biblically encoded narratives of "Wonderful Sea Deliverances" to the more profane yet no less symbolic shipwrecks in the works of Norris, London, and Crane; from Anne Bradstreet's contemplations of the sea to seaward visions in American women's writing of the nineteenth and twentieth century; from Sarah Josepha Hale's utopian rewriting of the crossing to the New World in her 1853 novel Liberia to the reimagining of the first encounter for the 1992 Columbiad; from Hawthorne's and Melville's critical assessment of modern naval warfare to a reassessment - one hundred years later - of Slocum's low-tech, single-handed voyage around the world; and from Thoreau's meditations by the sea to the use of sea metaphors in postmodern fiction.

Some Are Sicker Than Others , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 633min

The lives of three utterly hopeless addicts converge following an accidental and horrific death. Monty Miller, a self-destructive, co-dependent alcoholic, is wracked by an obsession to drink himself to death as punishment for a fatal car accident he didn't cause. Dave Bell, a former all-American track star turned washed-up high school volleyball coach, routinely chauffeurs his bus full of teens on a belly full of liquor and head full of crack. Angie Mallard, a recently divorced housewife with three estranged children, is willing to go to any lengths to restore the family she lost to crystal meth. All three are court-mandated to a drug and alcohol rehab high in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. There, they learn the universal truth among alcoholics and addicts: Though they may all be sick...some are sicker than others. Based on the author's own personal experience with substance abuse and 12-step programs, Some Are Sicker Than Others transcends the clichés of the typical recovery story by exploring the insidiousness of addiction and the thin, blurred line between true love and co-dependence. With the harsh realism of Brett Easton Ellis and the dark, confrontational humor of Chuck Palahniuk, Mr. Seaward takes the reader deep inside the psyche of the addict and portrays, in very explicit details, the psychological and physiological effects of withdrawal and the various stages of recovery. ungekürzt.

The Wistful and the Good (Cuthbert's People, #1) (eBook, ePUB)

The mighty are undone by pride, the bold by folly, and the good by wistfulness.Elswyth's mother was a slave, but her father is a thegn, and Drefan, the man she is to marry, is an ealdorman's son. But though Elswyth is content with the match, and waits only for Drefan to notice that she has come to womanhood, still she finds herself gazing seaward, full of wistful longing. From the sea come Norse traders, bringing wealth, friendship, and tales of distant lands. But in this year of grace 793 the sea has brought a great Viking raid that has devastated the rich monastery of Lindisfarne, only a day's journey north of Elswyth's village of Twyford. Norse are suddenly devils incarnate in Northumbria, and when Elswyth spots a Norse ship approaching the beach, her father fears a Viking raid. But the ship brings trouble of a different kind. Leif has visited Twyford many times as a boy, accompanying his father on his voyages. But now he returns in command of his father's ship and desperate to raise his father's ransom by selling a cargo of Christian holy books. There could be no more suspect cargo in the days after the Lindisfarne raid and when Drefan arrives, investigating reports of the sighting of a Norse ship, Elswyth must try to keep the peace between Drefan and Leif. But Elswyth's wistful heart has found a new and perilous object.

Naive and Alone: Why She Became a Mail Order Bride - Westward Wanted , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 82min

He was not the first dashing cavalryman to charm a naïve country girl, but he was the first to win Miss Calhoun's heart. When he promises his love to her, she trusts him, and realizes that her future lies westward. Miss Mabel-Faith Calhoun needed to stay on course. Rattling down the road in an old buggy drawn by a white carriage horse, her spirits were high. The thick layer of dark gray clouds oppressing the farming town of Riverton, Georgia, that early September morning did not dampen her spirits because she was heading away. For months, she had been looking forward to visiting her aunt. After a quick hour passed, she drove beyond the hovering gloom. Now the bright blue sky was overhead. She had no way of knowing that along with the storm clouds, she may have left her sheltered life behind. A seagull glided in the currents overhead as if it were accompanying her. She cast an eye upward at the big white bird and believed it was just as anxious to get to New Glade as she was. Perhaps so. Not bound to follow the road, it flew off seaward over a line of pines and out of sight. At this juncture, the sound of a horse running broke the silence. She heard its fast approach behind her carriage, and looked over her shoulder to glimpse a striking dark-haired cavalry soldier on a large black steed thundering up the road. He easily caught up with her. As he began to race past her carriage, the handsome man glanced over at her and took pause. He pulled up on the reins, and dominated his spirited mount into slowing to the pace of her horse so he could linger beside her buggy. A sliver of a smile crossed his face. He cocked his head in greeting and tipped his hat to her. The moment she captured his gaze, her breath caught in her throat. Now here was a man....
