In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be positive all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people.

A Book About Hope. We live in an interesting time. Materially, everything is the best it's ever been-we are freer, healthier and wealthier than any people in human history. Yet, somehow everything seems to be irreparably and horribly fucked-the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter. At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education and communication our ancestors couldn't even dream of, so many of us come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness. What's going on? If anyone can put a name to our current ... |

A world-class thinker counts the ways-100 in all-in which humans behave irrationally, showing us what we can do to recognize and minimize these thinking errors for better decisions and a better life Despite the best of intentions, humans are notoriously bad-that is, irrational-when it comes to making decisions and assessing risks and tradeoffs. Psychologists and neuroscientists refer to these distinctly human foibles, biases, and thinking traps as cognitive errors. Cognitive errors are systematic deviances from rationality, from optimized, logical, rational thinking and behavior. We make these errors all the time, in all ... |

They say that the eyes feed first, then the body follows."The idea behind this book started in the land of smiles - Thailand. The specific aroma of Asian cuisine embraces everyone who sets foot in this land. This fragrance lingers in the mind, enriching the memories associated with the exotic. One of the festivals celebrated there, which is deeply connected to the story of this book, is the festival of the floating lanterns. Its preparation begins with the crafting of small boats made out of banana leaves in the shape of lotus flowers, lavishly adorned with petals and candles, before being set afloat in flowing water ... |

"Постоянно ни вълнува какво мислят хората за нас. Но забележи как мислите и идеите на всеки се променят само за няколко минути. Някой, който те възприема за добър човек, може да дойде и да нарече лош. Някой, който те мисли за добър човек и да те нарече лош. Някой, който те мисли за добър човек, в следващия момент ти казва, че си лош. Колко време мислите, че е необходимо, за да се промени мнението ни? Само няколко минути!" Шри Шри Рави Шанкар ... |

Коментари от Гурудев Шри Шри Рави Шанкар. Бащата на йога Патанджали в своите легенадарни сутри е систематизирал цялото познание за йога. Сутрите са кратки стихове или сентенции, които съдържат практическата и философската мъдрост на йога. Сутрите на Патанджали помагат да преодолеем собствените си бариери, изчистват ума ни от погрешните представи и разкриват пред нас един нов хармоничен свят. Когато човек се освободи от всичко ненужно, стига до истинската си природа, основана на мир и любов към себе си и към всичко и всички. Макар и йога сутрите да са древни афоризми, датиращи от хилядолетия, те носят в себе си ... |

Йога Васища без съмнение е една от уникалние книги в историята на човечеството. Тази велика творба е за онези, които с отворен ум търсят отговорите на въпросите: Как всъщност е започнало сътворението? Ако Бог е създал света, кой е създал Бог? Какво е Бог? Кой съм аз? Защо съм тук? Каква е действителността? Светът е оптическа измама. Според законите на съвременната физика всичко е енергия и вълни и реално материя не съществува. Древните хора са знаели, че всичко е съзнание, светът е илюзия, а животът не е по-различен от един сън. Този древен текст представлява разговор между мъдреца Васища и принц Рана. Книгата ... |
