Five Minutes in the Evening by Aster

$27.99 NZD

Category: Philosophy and Religion

The evening is a naturally reflective time of the day, when thoughts can end up going round and round in your head, landing on worst-case scenarios and interpretations. Five Minutes in the Evening is a guided journal designed to help you integrate any emotions experienced or discoveries made during the day and reflect on how you are feeling through the practice of journaling. The mere act of putting your thoughts onto paper can slow them down enough to allow you to consider them calmly rather than feeling consumed or overwhelmed by them. The human brain has a tendency to lean toward negative thinking, and so a few minutes of evening journaling is a very helpful tool for developing more positive mental habits. Focusing on gratitude has been shown to increase a person's sense of wellbeing and optimism, and describing the sensations associated with an activity you enjoy, such as how you feel in nature or while chatting to a good friend, offers similar benefits to the activity itself - your body will begin to feel the calm, grounded sensations that you feel in nature, or the sense of connection that you have while talking with a friend. Journaling is an excellent practice for clearing the clutter of your day and your mind. Simply writing down all the to-do lists that are floating around in your head, making you worried, can feel like a great relief. Many of the prompts and practices in this journal are based on the theme of letting go, as so many of us have a natural tendency to hold on to thoughts and mental or emotional baggage that are no longer serving us. In today's busy world, it can also be helpful to dedicate a few minutes at the end of the day to doing less, to allow your energy to settle in preparation for restful sleep and to consider what really matters to you. ...Show more

Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl

$21.00 NZD

Category: Philosophy and Religion

A prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that he and other inmates coped with the experience of being in Auschwitz. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and w ho offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances.The sort of person the prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Only those who allowed their inner hold on their moral and spiritual selves to subside eventually fell victim to the camp's degenerating influence - while those who made a victory of those experiences turned them into an inner triumph.Frankl came to believe that man's deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living. ...Show more

The Nordic Art of Friluftsliv - Reconnect with Nature by Oliver Luke Delorie

$18.99 NZD

Category: Philosophy and Religion

Whereas the popular Danish philosophy of hygge espouses the joys of turning your home into a cosy sanctuary, the Norwegian concept of friluftsliv encourages us to get out into the great outdoors. However, friluftsliv - or 'free air life' - means much more than going on camping trips; it reflects an i nnate understanding of the basic human need to connect with the natural world. Rather than seeking to conquer nature - climb the highest mountain, for example - it is about simply spending time with nature and finding harmony with its rhythms. In Norway, even city dwellers are never far from fjords, parks, and woodland, but this book explains how anyone can enter a friluftsliv state of mind, make the most of their outdoor opportunities and reap the benefits for their mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing. ...Show more

The Little Book of Confidence: Cool Calm Collected by Tiddy Rowan

$12.99 NZD

Category: Philosophy and Religion | Series: The Little Books

There are few people who have not gone to a party, a business presentation, a meeting or social occasion feeling a lack of confidence or an increased amount of self-consciousness. Reading this book will help transform the former wallflower into a sunflower. The Little Book of Confidence shows us how to challenge our preconceived notions about confidence. Through tips, quotes and practical exercises we can learn how to restore or improve positive faith in ourselves through heightened levels of competence, compassion and self-awareness. But this is more than a book about selfconfidence. To be in someone's confidence is a complement of trust in a friendship or business relationship. To have confidence in a proposal, a plan or a person is a declaration of positivity. Confidence is also an expression of self-assurance that is transmitted through body language. Throughout this book, different aspects of confidence are clearly presented in bite-sized nuggets of information and inspiration showing the reader how to get the best out of this often-elusive quality. ...Show more
