En stund för dig själv skriv & fördjupa din vardag
Det här är en inspirerande bok där du genom korta dagliga övningar i soulfulness får hjälp att leva ett mer själfullt och närvarande liv där det som är unikt du kommer till uttryck. En bok som ger dig utmaningar, mer livsmod och hjälper dig att se nya saker i ditt liv.
"Soulfulness handlar inte bara om att hitta överlevnadsstrategier för att ta sig igenom den närmaste veckan. Det handlar om att hitta sin rytm och dansa genom alla dagar på ett själfullt sätt, som om det finns goda skäl till att vi har hamnat här på jorden."
Brian Draper är en välkänd och uppskattad författare, föreläsare och retreatledare från Storbritannien. Han medverkar regelbundet i radioprogrammet Tankar för dagen i BBC Radio 4 och är biträdande lektor vid London Institute for Contemporary Christianity.

The research literature on the impact of alcohol on the brain has seen a rapid expansion in recent years. Alcohol and the Adult Brain presents an up-to-date overview of some of the issues relevant to understanding and working with people with cognitive impairment as a result of chronic alcohol use.
One issue causing barriers to effective treatment and care is the stigma associated with alcohol dependence, resulting in the belief that difficulties associated with alcohol related brain damage (ARBD) are ‘self-inflicted’. Cognitive changes resulting from alcohol excess and poor nutrition can directly affect an individual’s ability to motivate themselves, make decisions, and make the informed choices that underlie behaviour change. Attitudes held by professionals, reinforced by societal norms, that a person is ‘choosing to drink’ and ‘not motivated to engage with treatment’, in combination with the often subtle cognitive deficits associated with ARBD, can result in a lack of timely intervention, with enormous personal, social and economic cost.
The chapters in this book set ARBD in a social and cultural context, provide discussion of the difficulties in definition and diagnosis, and outline the structural brain changes and neuropsychological deficits associated with chronic alcohol use. The book provides an overview of recent research on ARBD, including impairments associated with Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome, and discusses up to date recommendations for managing and working with this complex and varied disorder.
Alcohol and the Adult Brain will be essential for students and researchers working with ARBD and for practitioners in a range of health, social care and voluntary settings.

''Brian Draper is Britain''s foremost popular spiritual thinker; he has no equals in linking the inner with the political and personal outer. This is a remarkably practical exploration of elusive yet core elements of our existence.'' - Oliver JamesThe beauty of mindfulness is that it''s incredibly simple both to ''get'' and to practise. And the results - increasingly backed by neuro-scientific evidence - are priceless: calmness and reduced stress, more creativity, greater awareness, compassion. . . And yet there''s a danger that mindfulness can be used in a purely consumerist and self-serving way to help people to become better adapted cogs in a still-toxic model of work and life. Brian Draper challenges us to live not just mindfully but soulfully. Not merely to be less stressed, but to flourish, dynamically and creatively - to be present - through living intentionally and compassionately.
