As a educator, I can't count the number of times a parent has said, "You talk to him; he'll listen to you." It is generally accepted as fact that parents cannot effectively communicate with their children during the difficult teen years. As someone who has studied the neuroscience and psychology of teen development, I know that this belief is wrong. The problem lies in a lack of understanding of how teens think, what types of parenting work best, and what form of communication is appropriate. This book gets it right and should be read by any parent whose child is in or about to enter the teen years. Emphasizing active listening and respectful interactions, the book helps the listener forge a trustful bond with the teen and learn how to discuss everyday topics, minefield topics such as sex and drugs, and everything in between.

If you love camping (or are even new to camping) but worry that taking your kids camping will become a nightmare of stress, chaos, and botched logistics, this book will put your mind at ease. Filled with practical advice covering all the essential topics, the book empowers you to plan and enjoy a camping trip filled with learning, fun, and safety. Much more than a technical how-to on pitching a tent or cooking a meal, the book helps you to teach your kids and engage with them about nature and how to interact responsibly, navigation, safety and survival, and so much more. Camping becomes a shared experience. Moreover, the nature of that experience can evolve as your kids mature, thanks to chapters on more advanced skills and a growing appreciation of outdoors.

Revisado: 03-29-25

Written by someone who long had trouble sleeping, this terrific book shares the author's long-sought solution. Biohacking, as the author explains, leverages scientific knowledge about sleep mechanisms and institutes behavioral changes to take advantage of that science. These changes are clearly presented and well organized. Helpfully, the author focuses on changes to your bedroom first (colors, aromas, etc.)--you don't even have to change behaviors to see early results, which will then inspire you to keep listening and implement the recommended behavioral changes too. These changes include mindfulness, crafting a personal and consistent bedtime routine, dealing with nightmares and other sleep interruptions, proper nutrition (both what and when), and much more.

Guided meditation is a wonderful way to center yourself, and using manifestations can be a powerful tool to change your outlook and create a more satisfying version of yourself. I appreciate this book on several levels. The serene narration and music are wonderful aids to finding a lovely relaxation and receptive state. The guided meditations are grouped by different topics, so you can use whatever topic might be most pressing on a particular day. For example, you may want to visualize your future self or find a greater self confidence, just to name two. I also like that there are two morning meditations (short and long) and three "subliminal manifestation accelerators" of different lengths. Inner peace and higher wisdom are at hand.

This is such a cool book. Rather than write about 24 specific games, plays, or players, this author takes a broader and fascinating approach with topics such as "Baseball in the Civil War," "Deals to Remember: The Most Significant Trades," "Baseball and Gambling," "Strange Baseball Traditions," and the like. Of course, great players are part of the stories, and three get their own chapters: Robinson, Ruth, and Clemente. The book is well-researched, filled with interest facts and trivia. It is lovingly written and narrated.

I have long fantasied about preserving foods, especially when I have lots of in-season produce that I cannot possiblee eat fast enough. Until I picked up this book, however, I imagined that the process would be too complicated. It turns out that a bit of easy-to-understand science and a list of basic tools are all that are needed to get started. Yes, there are things you need to keep track of--such as choice of fermentation ingredients, temperature, sealing, and more--and precision is important, but the author explains the processes with clarity and in accessibly small bits of information. The book covers plenty of foods, so if you think preservation involves only jams, pickles, and sauerkraut, you'll be delighted to learn that these are just the beginning.

Being a teen girl is difficult enough without suffering from anxiety fed by all those self doubts and negative loops. What makes this terrific book a particularly powerful resource is that it focuses on specific topics rather than treat anxiety as a one-size-fits-all problem with a generic solution. Whether you have social anxiety, academic fears, pp]oor body image, stress from social media, or any of plenty of other topics, you will find the solution here. Each chapter contains practical tools to address the chapter's problem. The tools are varied--including topic-specific affirmations, journaling, and other exercises. The book doesn't speak down to you; it's like having a caring sister or older friend working to empower you.

I have started a few businesses with limited success. Looking back after listening to this book, I realize that I made so many mistakes without even realizing I wasn't asking the right questions. Clearly written and encouraging while still being realistic, the book provides advice on critical topics--and not just what steps you need to take (although that is there). The book addresses critical matters such as having a resilient mindset, ensuring your business idea meets a need and is supported by a solid model, selling through a compelling story, retaining staff, pivoting, and so much more. It's easy to say "I have a great idea" and dive right in (guilty as charged), but success requires thought and attention to the many details explained in this book.

Ending the Perfectionism-Anxiety Vicious Circle

Beginning with her own relatable story about finding the path of rejecting perfectionism, the author of this terrific book sets a relatable and supportive tone. So many of us procrastinate or even avoid completing steps to achieve our goals because of anxiety induced by perfectionism or a sense of not being good enough. If you are one of these people, you know that anxiety leads to procrastination or self-doubt, which then generates more anxiety. Perfectionism adds to the cycle. This book provides practical advice to break the cycle. Each chapter presents a particular focus (such as overthinking, overpreparation, fear of criticism, and more). While you might relate to certain chapters more than others, they all gel coherently, leading to a much-improved, action-oriented mindset.

Path To Healing

Revisado: 02-24-25

Shadow Work is a psychological healing approach; the shadow is where we hide repressed parts of ourselves--doubts and fears, for example, but of course, these wounds can emerge in the face of triggers. The goal of shadow work is to bring these parts from our unconscious and integrate them back into ourselves as a means of healing and freedom. This terrific bundle is informative and encouraging, while also offering a wealth of practical tools. The chapters of the first book--each with a companion chapter of exercises--address different shadow topics, such as relationships, vulnerability, destructive patterns, and the like. The second book contains a 21-day course of meditation, with a daily reflection and application exercise. Each book has its uses, and together they are greater than the sum of their parts.
