SIMPLE EXERCISES TO STIMULATE THE VAGUS NERVE by Lars Lienhard and Ulla Schmid-Fetzer
For those not familiar with the vagus nerve, the authors tell us that it’s an information superhighway transmitting data between the brain, heart, gut, immune system and many other organs, and is unfortunately, since it serves so many parts of our bodies, detrimentally affected by stress. With an easy to understand introduction, the book then lays out over 100 simple, well-illustrated exercises that we can all do to alleviate stress, depression, anxiety, pain and digestive conditions. From balance and breathing to hearing, sight and touch exercises, we learn to improve the stimulation needed for the brain-gut and brain-heart axes to function more predictably and effectively. It’s very approachable and makes complete sense!

BEYOND THEOLOGY by Alan Watts
£14.43 £16.99
I love anything by Alan Watts. He is so witty and good with words, which means he can deploy his formidable intelligence to make deep religious and spiritual concepts comprehensible and even fun to learn about. Beyond Theology was first published in 1964 and it’s fascinating to read Watts – who used to be an Episcopal chaplain – analyse and critique Christianity, especially when he is more closely associated now with eastern belief systems like Zen and Taoism. Christianity is something that many of us now are turning away from but of course there is value there and maybe it takes a “philosophical jester” like Alan Watts to show us what we can learn from it. As ever, his intention is for us to see beyond the external trappings of the Christian church and find the beauty and sacredness on the other side.

WHAT I WISH PEOPLE KNEW ABOUT DEMENTIA by Wendy Mitchell
£8.87 £9.99
Wendy was just 58 when she was diagnosed with young-onset dementia, but she has dealt with it front-on and has lived a constructive and busy life since. Her first book was Somebody I Used to Know, which was more of an account of what happened to her, whereas this book – new in paperback – is a book of tips and guidance about what dementia actually feels like. Sadly it’s a book that many of us need as people live much longer lives. It’s a book that helps us understand what people with dementia are going through and how they experience things, which helps us to help them better. And, in describing the experience of dementia, it might also make us less afraid of it, as we are reassured that a vibrant and fulfilling life is still possible when you have it.
