21 RITUALS TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE by Theresa Cheung
£10.99
We think our future is shaped by big events - the decisions we make, the thoughts we have - but this book will show that it is our daily actions, the things we repeatedly do, that are the key. Repeat an action enough times and it will become a habit, but habits lack thought, consideration and presence. To ensure long-lasting, meaningful change our actions need to be filled with a sense of personal meaning, purpose and power - they need to be ritualized.
Creating personal ritual in our lives allows us to bring the presence of the sacred into the everyday. The rituals in this book have been created and designed as symbolic acts providing a framework for anyone to use to create positive change in their lives. The 7 morning rituals are designed to help you 'wake with determination'; the 7 afternoon rituals focus on 'living on purpose'; and the 7 evening rituals focus on 'retiring with satisfaction'.

ALPHABET OF THE HUMAN HEART Matthew Johnson
Back soon! - £10.79 £12.99
'A handbook for the happy, and a bible for the broken-hearted', The Alphabet of the Human Heart is an enchanting and enriching journey through the upside and the downside of what it means to be human - our hopes and our fears, our strength and our weakness, our highs and our lows. Quite literally 'a book of two halves', firstly there is an upside A-Z, full of the happy and hopeful aspects of our lives, such as A is for Adventure - the opposite of television, through G is for Gratitude, S is for Smile to Zen is the Place to Be. Flip the book over, and the other downside half examines the negative parts of our lives and how we can overcome them to lead more positive and fulfilling lives. With affirmations, humorous illustrations throughout, and a definite sense of glee, Matthew Johnstone and James Kerr's little book of wisdom is also the perfect gift to help cheer up a friend or loved one.
