An inclusive guide to improving mobility, building strength, and increasing flexibility for every body and any size, shape, and ability. Here's an idea: exercise should be enjoyable-not punishing, elitist, or overly competitive. Nor should gym work cause us harm or bring us shame. Part exercise manual and part workbook, Movement for Every Body celebrates this approach and champions an inclusive movement practice for anyone who doesn't fit the "typical" fitness mold and doesn't wish to-who refuses burdensome narratives that tell them they're broken and need to be fixed, cured, or mended to be whole. With journaling and reflective prompts and activities; helpful tips covering accommodations, mobility aids, and self-advocacy strategies; and highly adaptable exercise demonstrations reflecting a broad range of body types, physical abilities, and mobility aids, Movement for Every Body provides the instruction and validation needed to redefine our approaches, goals, and pleasures around exercise and ability.

Author: Emma Specter
Narrator: Erin deWard
An unflinching and deeply reported look at the realities of binge-eating disorder from a rising culture commentator and writer for Vogue. Millions of us use restrictive diets, intermittent fasting, IV therapies, and Ozempic abuse to shrink until we are sample-size acceptable. But for the 30 million Americans who live with eating disorders, it isn't just about less. More, Please is a chronicle of a lifelong fixation with food-its power to soothe, to comfort, to offer a fleeting escape from the outside world-as well as an examination of the ways in which compulsory thinness, diet culture, and the seductive promise of "wellness" have resulted in warping countless Americans' relationship with healthy eating. Melding memoir, reportage, and in-depth interviews with some of the most prominent and knowledgeable commentators currently writing about food, fatness, and disordered eating-Virginia Sole-Smith, Virgie Tovar, Aiyana Ishmael, Leslie Jamison, and others-Emma Specter explores binge-eating disorder as both a personal problem and a societal one. In More, Please, she provides a context, a history, and a language for what it means to always want more than you'll allow yourself to have.

Free Download Mom Rage: The Everyday Crisis of Modern Motherhood by Minna Dubin, Seal Press
English | September 19, 2023 | ISBN: B0BWKD1YYY | 7 hours and 44 minutes | M4B 64 Kbps | 224 Mb
A frank feminist examination of the hidden crisis of rage facing American mothers-and how we can fix it
Mothers aren't supposed to be angry. Still, Minna Dubin was an angry mom: exhausted by the grueling, thankless work of full-time parenting and feeling her career slip away, she would find herself screaming at her child or exploding at her husband.
When Dubin pushed past her shame and talked with other mothers about how she was feeling, she realized that she was far from alone. Mom Rage is Dubin's groundbreaking work of reportage about an unspoken crisis of anger sweeping the country-and the world. She finds that while a specific instance of rage might be triggered by something as simple as a child who won't tie her shoes, the roots of the anger go far deeper, from the unequal burden of childcare shouldered by moms to the flattening of women's identities once they have kids. Drawing on insights from moms across the spectrum of race, sexual orientation, and class, she offers practical tools to help listeners disarm their rage in the moment, while never losing sight of the broader social change we need to stop raging for good.

Free Download Modern Tantric Buddhism: Embodiment and Authenticity in Dharma Practice (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CLWYX2SF | 2024 | 14 hours and 57 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 429 MB
Author: Lama Justin von Bujdoss
Narrator: A'rese Emokpae
Today, a new generation of Buddhists searches for ways to adopt Vajrayana while staying true to its historical legacy. Modern Tantric Buddhism unpacks the principles and applications of this esoteric practice in an accessible and meaningful manner, connecting its roots to a socially engaged, modern-day dharma. Taking a traditional Tibetan pedagogical approach, Lama Justin von Bujdoss divides the book into 3 thematic sections: Body, as it applies to physicality and embodiment. Speech, or ethical action. Mind, the context of awakening. Von Bujdoss challenges assumptions about what it means to be a socially engaged Buddhist, and presents Tantra as an ideal vehicle for critically examining today's most pressing social issues while confronting the structural inequities of patriarchy, sexism, colonialism, and racism within Buddhist institutions.

Free Download Modern Germany: The History and Legacy of the German Nation from Unification to Reunification (Audiobook)
English | ISBN: 9798882351884 | 2024 | 30 hours and 20 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 868 MB
Author: Charles River Editors
Narrator: Bill Caufield
The history of Germany and the German-speaking peoples is as complex and multifaceted as any in Europe. It is also one of the most difficult to pinpoint conceptually and historically, since every nation is a construct to some extent. Language is certainly important, and the German language is a unifying factor for any notion of a unified Germany, yet even today, many German-speakers live outside the borders of modern Germany. Shared customs and traditions gave Germans a common sense of identity to some extent, but these were often local in origin. Germans were also split between several versions of Christianity. Nevertheless, ideas of a German nation were present by the 19th century, leading up to the official unification in 1871. Neil MacGregor, a historian of modern Germany, has explained that the two defining events leading to the rise of German nationalism and the movement toward unification were the Thirty Years' War and the Napoleonic Wars.
