The Green Beauty Rules

Connecting With Coincidence

The Essential Guide to Toxic-Free Beauty, Green Glamour, and Glowing Skin

The New Science for Using Synchronicity and Serendipity in Your Life

Paige Padgett

September 2015 | 256 pages

Green beauty expert and celebrity makeup artist Paige Padgett shows
readers how to green their beauty routine while looking gorgeous in
the process. Padgett shares insider secrets and practical strategies to
make green beauty easy: how to read beyond the labels, see through
misleading buzzwords, and identify toxic chemicals that prematurely
age skin and cause harm from the inside out. For readers who are new
to the green beauty scene or already experimenting with eco-conscious
makeup and skin care, this is the essential guide to clean cosmetics for
a healthier future.

Bernard D. Beitman, MD
For the first time since Carl Jungs work comes bold new research
that explains scientifically how we can identify, understand, and
perhaps even control the frequency of coincidences in our everyday
lives. The emerging field of Coincidence Studies (CS), which Beitman
is instrumental in developing, emphasizes closer connections between
mind and environment than are currently accepted in psychiatry and
psychology. Beitman is the first to provide a scientific understanding
and practical ways in which readers can use in their own lives.

OMG!

The Perfection Deception

How Children See God

Why Trying to Be Perfect Is Sabotaging Your Relationships, Making You


Sick, and Holding Your Happiness Hostage

Monica Parker

Jane Bluestein, PhD

OMG! is a magical window into how children view God. This crossculture of kids offer some entertaining and unfiltered explanations
about how God looks like, where he or she lives, and what powers God
possesses (and may not possess). This book showcases the differences
and yet the similarities that kids of every economic, cultural and religious
background share. Funny, poignant and galvanizing with deeply rooted
sentiments that will never go out of fashion.

For those who are bound by the impossible demands of perfectionism


and those who feel bound by someone elses perfectionistic standards,
Dr. Bluestein emphatically shows that perfectionism is not a good thing
and its not remotely the same as doing your best. Through personal
interviews and the latest research, she explores how our culture fuels
the dysfunction and how perfectionism develops. Further, she provides
practical strategies for moving towards authenticity and wholeness to
live with confidence, self-fulfillment, and happiness..

Youre Tearing Us Apart

Being Relational

Twenty Ways We Wreck Our Relationships and Strategies to Repair Them

The Seven Ways to Quality Interaction & Lasting Change

Pat Love, Eva Berlander and Kathleen McFadden

Louise Phipps Senft and William Senft

Relationships in the 21st century are complicated. One recent study


found that couples spend only 35 minutes per week in intimate
conversation; the rest of the time relying on electronic contact and
notes. To keep a relationship from hitting esc or worse, delete,
this fast-paced life calls for fast-paced strategies, and this book is full of
them! Youre tearing Us Apart includes universal topics that can affect
any couple and will resonate with any reader in a relationship.

The challenges of a crowded and hyper-connected world call us to evolve


in the ways that we relate to each. The goal of Being Relational is to
provide a synthesis of attitudes and practices organized into a practical,
thought-provoking and inspiring approach that readers can draw upon
and use as a way of being in relation to others. This unique collection of
teachings focuses on what happens in human interaction. It details ways
of being in relation to others that capture the heart and soul of all that
is self-help, grounded in method, and supported by relational conflict
theory and brain science findings.

CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SOUL

Tiger Heart

Chicken Soup for the Soul

Katrell Christie and Shannon McCaffrey

Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen | Founders

Katrell Christie was a thirty-something former art student turned rollerderby rebel who opened a teashop in Atlanta. Barely two years later,
her life would make a drastic change and so would the lives of a group
of girls in India. While on a trip to Darjeeling, Katrell met some girls at
an orphanage who would very soon age out without any place to
go. Returning home, she could not forget the girls and before long,
The Learning Tea was born to help raise funds for the girls. Tiger
Heart recounts Christies adventures back to India and the power of one
person to make a difference.

Chicken Soup for the Soul is one of the worlds favorite and most
recognized storytellers. From the beginning, this series turned into one
of the most popular and loved books ever published, which has been
sold into 44 languages, counts nearly 300 titles, and have sold more
hundreds of million copies worldwide.

Pope Francis: Life and Revolution

Sacred Space: Prayer Books

Elisabetta Piqu

The Irish Jesuits

Since Jorge Mario Bergoglio became Pope Francis in 2013, countless


books have been written to help the world understand this deeply
complex yet simple servant of God. What sets Pope Francis: Life and
Revolution apart from all other biographies of Pope Francis is the careful
research and original investigation behind it, along with the fact that it
is written by an internationally respected journalist Elisabetta Piqu
who has remained close to the Pope since first meeting him back
in 2001. Piqu reveals the personal side of Pope Francis : his freedom,
courage, humility, humanity, and humor.

The secret to Sacred Spaces popularity is its simplicity. At its core is


a simple daily prayer based on Scripture, and Sacred Space: The
Prayer Book offers reflections for every day of the liturgical year. Each
day includes Scripture readings and points of reflection, as well as a
weekly topic enhanced by six steps of prayer and reflection. This annual
collection includes also two seasonal booklets that offer a daily Scripture
reading and points of reflection to help readers center yourself and
ground your Advent or Lent experience in prayer : Sacred Space for
Advent and the Christmas Season, and Sacred Space for Lent

Parenting a Grieving Child

August 2015 | 328 pages

Heather King

Mary DeTurris Poust

Cancer is a life-altering event of seismic proportions that forever impacts


peoples lives, and pushes them to reorder priorities, reassess values and
perhaps rethink their faith. A diagnosed tumor forced Heather King to
live at the crossroads of uncertainty, belief, fear and modern medicine.
Only her faith in Christ, the Great Physician, helped her sort through
the crippling uncertainty and choose her best way forward. Stripped
chronicles Kings decision to carefully examine all the medical evidence
available and to choose to bring God into her decision making, even if
that meant going against established medical advice.

Whether its a fish, a friend, or a family member, nearly every child will
experience a loss in their early years, and the feelings of a sad event
can be confusing and scary. When grief intrudes, children look to their
parents and the adults in their lives to fix this pain, take away what
they dont understand, and show them how to handle their emotions.
Parenting a Grieving Child provides practical and approachable resources
for Catholic parents and other adult helpers who work with children
to use the power and traditions of the Catholic faith to accompany
children as they work through their grief in a healthy way.

Praying With Ignatius of Loyola

Stephen J. Binz

Jacqueline Bergan and Marie Schwan

Peter made more than one major mistake while following Jesus, and he
has been highly revered within the Church. In fact, when flawed people
experience forgiveness through Jesus, they are freed and empowered to
be faithful followers of Christ. Author Stephen J. Binz helps us embrace
the reality that God works through broken human beings to accomplish
truly beautiful things. Saint Peter reminds us that the papacy from
Peter to the present day has always been filled by imperfect people.
Mysteriously and wonderfully, thats exactly the type of person through
whom God advances the Church!

How Big Is Your God?

Creating a Space for Grace in Your Life

Paul Coutinho, SJ

Terry Hershey
Have you ever come back from a vacation only to feel more wiped out
than before? Does the phrase a little R&R sound like an unattainable
dream? What do you do when you need to just be for a while? Our
daily life takes a toll in energy, time and effort. The space and rest we
need to recuperate physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually is
usually put on hold. What we need is sanctuary, a place and space that
allows us to reflect, rejuvenate, and restore. Terry Hersheys book not
only defines what sanctuary is but why we need it, where we can find
it, and how we can create it as a space and habit.

Inside the Historical Film

Basic Science in the Clinic

Bruno Ramirez

Dr. Pierre Poitras, Editor

In many ways, our historical culture is shaped more in the movie


theatre than in the classroom. Inside the Historical Film argues how
and why film can enrich our understanding of the past. Bruno Ramirez
discusses a wide range of films, pointing to the role that film-crafts play
in translating historical events into cinematic language. The practicebased quality at the core of Ramirezs analysis is further enhanced by
conversations with world-renowned film directors, including Denys
Arcand, Constantin Costa-Gavras, Deepa Mehta, Renzo Rossellini, Paolo
and Vittorio Taviani, and Margarethe von Trotta.

The sum total of biomedical knowledge is considerable, and getting


larger each day. It is hard to imagine mastering, quantitatively or
qualitatively, all data on genetics or cellular and molecular biology. While
some discoveries have an immediate impact on medical practice, the
effects of others are more long-term.This book seeks to establish a link
between basic science and clinical practice by highlighting knowledge
that has had an impact on care.

The Musculoskeletal Examination

America According to Sartre

Jean-Luc Tremblay

Yan Hamel

Intended for students and established practitioners alike, this unique


guide gives a comprehensive view of the musculoskeletal physical
examination procedure. While a number of books have been written
on this subject, few have truly discussed in detail the specific physical
signs of rheumatic diseases. Each joint group and all types of symptoms
are described with case studies, including diagnostic techniques and
manipulations accompanied by numerous illustrations and photographs.
The neurological exam, laboratory analyses and joint injection/aspiration
methods are also described.

For the first time, Jean-Paul Sartres American concept is analysed


from an approach focussing on the many facets of his complex vision,
which is literary and philosophical as much as political. Yan Hamel
cautions against any schematic reading of Sartres relationship with
America: It would be nave and totally reductive to see Sartres vision
as moving in linear stages from uncritical fantasy to lucid disillusion.
His pronouncements have to be appreciated not only in relation to very
particular events and historical circumstances, but also as a product of
a broader French and European tradition that shaped his perceptions at
virtually every stage of his evolving relationship with America.

bamboo-cutter. One day, while he was working, he found a small girl
playing the flute in the heart of a stalk. She was only a few inches tall,
but incredibly beautiful. The young Tsuki grows, her adoptive parents
become very rich, and then she leaves, transforming them into immortal
beings, as she was. Tsukis parents, in tears, decided to give back this
immortality in order to retreive Tsuki, because an eternal life had no
meaning without their beloved daugther. Tsuki, a princess who came
from the Moon and was destined to return to it.

Three tales inspired by Chadian tradition, filled with wittiness and a


touch of philosophy as well. Teasing characters and entangled situations
blend in an exotic setting, together progressing in stories that contribute
to learning values like justice and respect for the elderly. A great way
to entertain children and give them a bit of wisdom at the same time.
