    Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents listeners with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity. Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one. In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are, which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are, and learn to live and breathe freely. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    If there is one book which spans generations with the common thread of collective wisdom, it is this one. Nineteen centenarians from different countries and a cross-section of society share their memoirs, intertwined with the history of their century, as they experienced it. They were ordinary people who lived extraordinary lives. In this audio, they share their values, beliefs, habits, attitudes, and lessons learnt from living to be a hundred. Most important of all, they tell us how to harmonize science and soul. They were around from the rustic horse and buggy age to the sequencing of the human genome. They witnessed the Big Bands performing, the railroads being constructed, and Gandhiji's non-violent movement against the British. They have had personal experiences of the Great Depression, the World Wars, the Japanese invasion of China, India's freedom struggle, and apartheid. They have lost children to war and poverty. So what inspired them and kept them spirited? What did they learn from history? How did they find the strength and the will to keep going in times of despair? Is there hope in the 21st century for all of us to achieve more fulfilling lives? In their diverse narratives, they offer us a common and real hope for health, longevity, and a saner world-based on our own humanity. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jill Summers.

    Do you often feel like your life is out of your control? Are you trying to do too much at once, but don't know how to slow down? Maybe you're having trouble juggling all of the responsibilities in your life? In a world where we never seem to have enough time to get everything done, and advertisements are subliminally hawking us to 'buy me,' Dr. Chuck Berg presents an elegant approach to living a saner and simpler life. "There is a conclusive correlation," says Berg, "between neck and back problems, gastrointestinal issues, and an overall weakening of the human immune system tied to chasing what we don't have and to poor coping skills." Staying well is a multi-faceted job. Unlike what TV commercials tell you, there is no single product, pill or piece of equipment that renders us whole. Dr. Berg reminds us that human beings are self-healing, self-regulating creatures that function independently of what is fashionable in the market place at any given moment. Is Your Lifestyle Killing You? helps listeners reevaluate their current choices and habits so they can live fulfilling lives and follow the dreams that seemed to be out of reach. A successful chiropractor for almost 30 years, a student and teacher of integrative nutrition and now a speaker, author and executive lifestyle coach, Chuck Berg has brought his message of wellness and balance to clients as diverse as BMW North America, UBS Financial Services the International Council for Women in Real Estate and listeners of his "Reclaiming Your Health" radio show. ungekürzt.

    This is the disturbing tale of the dual personality of Dr. Jekyll, a physician. A generous and philanthropic man, he is preoccupied with the problems of good and evil, and with the possibility of separating them into distinct personalities. He develops a drug that transforms him into the demonic Mr. Hyde, in whose person he exhausts all the latent evil in his nature. He also creates an antidote that will restore him to his respectable existence as Dr. Jekyll. Gradually, however, the unmitigated evil of his darker self predominates until finally he performs an atrocious murder. His saner self determines to curtail these alternations of personality, but he discovers that he is losing control over his transformations and that he slips with increasing frequency into the world of evil. Finally, unable to procure one of the ingredients for the mixture of redemption, and on the verge of being discovered, he commits suicide. Stark, skillfully woven, this fascinating novel explores the curious turnings of human character through the strange case of Dr. Jekyll, a kindly scientist who by night takes on his stunted, evil self, Mr. Hyde. Anticipating modern psychology, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a brilliantly original study of man's dual nature as well as an immortal tale of suspense and terror. This tale has lost none of its ability to shock. Its realistic police-style narrative chillingly relates Dr. Jekyll’s desperation as Hyde gains control of his soul - and gives voice to our own fears of the violence and evil within us. ungekürzt.

    Who would I be, what would I do, if I trusted myself? In her warm and inimitable way, M. J. Ryan guides us to look at our lives from a different perspective. To imagine what they would be like if we practiced an attitude of self-trust, if we received the gifts trusting ourselves might give us. In an age of constant media messages and so-called expert advice telling us to be richer, thinner, smarter, and faster, we're all dogged with worry and self-doubt. Best-selling author M. J. Ryan believes we've become so dependent on "experts" to tell us how to live our lives that we listen to everyone except ourselves. In Trusting Yourself, Ryan identifies the answers to feeling swept away by life: We already have what it takes to cope. We can learn how to tap in to the wisdom inside us by cultivating self-awareness, self-confidence, and self-reliance. Learn how to quiet the critics - inside and out - and trust yourself instead. If you accept that we learn through trial and error, if you believe that we each have unique strengths and that not one of us has to have them all, if you realize that labels only get in the way, then your self-trust will grow, your worries will shrink, and you'll find happiness and success with a lot less effort. This is a life coach in a book that listeners can turn to again and again when stress or worry takes over to find more peaceful, saner lives every day. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Michael J. Gelb is the world's leading authority on the application of genius thinking to personal and organizational development. He shows you how to rethink the way you think by helping you discover your natural ability to create, communicate, and lead in every area of your life - from designing a dinner party to mapping out your life goals, from running a more effective business meeting to improving memory and increasing your creative power. Thinking for a Change unveils fresh strategies for thriving on change and increasing productivity through synvergent thinking, the art of balancing logic and imagination, reason and intuition. It is a way of seeing the whole picture by integrating the larger elements and the details. It is the ability to entertain multiple pairs of seemingly opposite ideas simultaneously. Thinking for a Change also teaches listeners how to facilitate the mind's ability to link disparate ideas. This process of association is the basis for the skill of mind mapping, a method that improves the organization of ideas and encourages synvergent thinking. Based on a practical understanding of the structure and design of the human brain, and research into the thinking patterns of history's great achievers such as Darwin, Edison, and Leonardo da Vinci, mind mapping unleashes your ability to generate new ideas quickly and organize them effectively. In today's global marketplace everyone from retailers and restaurateurs to computer consultants and communications companies are restructuring, reengineering, and reinventing themselves. In a world of accelerating change, individuals and organizations can no longer afford to approach information-age problems and opportunities with industrial-age thinking skills. A more fulfilling life, a stronger organization, a saner society - they all start with your thinking, your actions, and your courage. So listen to this program and begin Thinking for a Change. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael J. Gelb. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/gdan/000457/bk_gdan_000457_sample.mp3.
