Battles are fought everywhere, not just out in the world, but within us. No one better understands this dichotomy than servicemen and women and veterans who must try to integrate back to their normal lives.

The Resilient Warrior collects the very best of strategies, life hacks, practical tips and self-care ideas developed to help keep you safe and supported both at home and on deployment, including how to: • Work at your best while outside your comfort zone • Create a morning routine for the best possible start to your day • Manage anger with positive redirection • Develop proper sleep habits • Practice good hygiene as part of your everyday life • Find fulfilling ways to stay physically active Featuring self-help, mental health, and mind and body tactics from a variety of sources--veterans, former and active U.S. Marines, Navy, Army Rangers, Green Berets, family members and caretakers--The Resilient Warrior is collaborative collection providing needed wisdom for complete well-being for all of us. The first step to thriving is surviving—and the first step to surviving is knowing how to get what you need, when you need it.

How do I help the organizations and people I lead recover from changing market conditions, tragic circumstances, perplexing dilemmas? While it is true that leaders get tired and body slammed, leaders also must bounce back, ideally even higher than before. Leaders must be resilient. That's what Resilient Leaders is all about.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following on from the success of the first edition, Smartcities + Eco-Warriors (2010), this book is the latest innovative response on urban resilience from one of the world’s leading urban design and architectural thinkers. An ecological symbiosis between nature, society and the built form, the Smartcity cultivates new spatial practices and creates diverse forms of resilient landscapes including and beyond urban agriculture. The notion of the Smartcity is developed through a series of international case studies, some commissioned by government organisations, others speculative and polemic. This second edition has nine new case studies, and additional ecological sustainability studies covering sensitivity, design criteria, and assessments for ecological construction plans. The book concludes with two new essays on the romance of trees and the empowering nature of resilient landscapes. Smartcities, Resilient Landscapes + Eco-warriors represents a crucial voice in the discourse of climate change and the potential opportunities to improve the ecological function of existing habitats or create new landscapes which are considered beneficial to local ecology and resilience. It is indispensable reading for practitioners and students in the fields of landscape, urban design, architecture and environmental engineering. An inspiration to government agencies and NGOs dealing with sustainability, this work also resonates with anyone concerned about cities, landscapes, food and water security, and energy conservation.

Book excerpt: Modern methods of agriculture have led to cities growing out of control and reducing the available agricultural land, threatening the sustainability of our food system. The previous mutually sustaining relationships of animals, humans and the land have been lost with the progress of industry. The Smartcity – an ecological symbiosis between nature, society and the built form – is the innovative response to contemporary problems from one of the world’s leading urban design and architectural thinkers. Addressing the problems of unchecked city growth, the idea of the Smartcity questions whether we could begin to live once again from first principles, focusing in on the inhabitants of the city. The holistic construct of the Smartcity is developed through a series of international case studies, some commissioned by government organisations, others speculative and polemic. Reframing the way people think about urban green space and the evolution of cities, CJ Lim and Ed Liu explore how the reintegration of agriculture in urban environments can cultivate new spatial practices and social cohesion in addition to food for our tables. Representing an emerging architectural voice in matters of environmental and social sustainability, Smartcities and Eco-warriors is a long overdue treatment of the subject from a designer’s perspective, and is essential reading for practitioners and students in the fields of architecture, urban planning, environmental engineering, landscape design, agriculture and sociology. An inspiration to government agencies and NGOs dealing with climate change, it also resonates with anyone concerned about cities, energy conservation and the future of food

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resilient Nations completes The Resilience Trilogy, addressing the reality that nation states have a Spiritual Infrastructure that largely determines their ability to bounce back from national challenges and calamities. After discussing principles for all nations, Resilient Nations quickly focuses on the United States of America. How resilient have we been as a nation? Where do we stand now? Does America's Spiritual Infrastructure continue to be strong, presaging readiness and resilience for future challenges? Resilient Nations validates that America is nearing a point of no return. What can we do to reverse course before it is too late? Major General Bob Dees, U.S. Army, Retired, has lived U.S. National Security around the globe, as well as in the homeland. From his careers in the military, business, non-profit leadership, higher education, and as a nationally recognized resilience consultant, General Dees provides the information and the inspiration needed by all Americans to ensure Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness for future generations. After in-depth discussion of American Resilience and Spiritual Infrastructure of past and present, Resilient Nations provides mandates for "We the People," "We the Church," and "We the Statesmen." The battle is raging. Who will join this fight for the very heart, soul, and character of America? If not us, then who? If not now, then when? If God be for us, then who can be against us?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New Release in Military Families ─ Coping with the Stress of First Responder Life A traumatic way of life: First responders have the incredibly difficult job of running toward danger while the rest of us run away. No training can prepare them for what they will see and endure. Kim Colegrove understands what it’s like to watch someone go through that. After 30 years in law enforcement, her husband took his own life. This agonizing experience opened Kim’s eyes to the desperate need for an effective form of stress-relief and support for first responders. The power of meditation: No matter our profession, taking care of our mental health needs to be a priority. For first responders like cops and EMTs, ensuring that their heads are in a healthy place is crucial because each day can bring them face-to-face with another trauma. With 40 years of experience, Kim Colegrove is here to share with readers that there is a viable and practical resource for first responders found in meditation. A source of hope: In 2017, Kim founded The PauseFirst Project, Mindfulness for First Responders. Kim offers the PauseFirst block of training to organizations across the country. She teaches techniques that help reduce stress, regulate emotion, and improve overall health and well-being. Colegrove’s work to bring awareness is a tribute to both her husband and the countless other first responders who struggle with the realities of their jobs. Readers of Kim Colegrove’s Mindfulness for Warriors will find… • Evidence-based practices to help first responders and their families deal with stress • Interviews with first responders who share their stories of overcoming, surviving, and thriving • Colegrove’s own raw and intimate story of her husband’s troubles and how she continues each day fighting in his memory Readers who have looked for encouragement messages and aid in books like Bulletproof Spirit, Bullets in the Washing Machine, and I Love a Cop (Third Edition) will find a further source of healing in Mindfulness for Warriors.

Book excerpt: The untold story of the Ya'mas, Israel's special forces undercover team that infiltrated Palestinian terrorist strongholds during the Second Intifada. It was the deadliest terror campaign ever mounted against a nation in modern times: the al-Aqsa, or Second, Intifada. This is the untold story of how Israel fought back with an elite force of undercover operatives, drawn from the nation's diverse backgrounds and ethnicities--and united in their ability to walk among the enemy as no one else dared. Beginning in late 2000, as black smoke rose from burning tires and rioters threw rocks in the streets, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Arafat's Palestinian Authority embarked on a strategy of sending their terrorists to slip undetected into Israel's towns and cities to set the country ablaze, unleashing suicide attacks at bus stops, discos, pizzerias--wherever people gathered. But Israel fielded some of the most capable and cunning special operations forces in the world. The Ya'mas, Israel National Police Border Guard undercover counterterrorists special operations units, became Israel's eyes-on-target response. Launched on intelligence provided by the Shin Bet, indigenous Arabic-speaking Dovrim, or "Speakers," operating in the West Bank, Jerusalem, and Gaza infiltrated the treacherous confines where the terrorists lived hidden in plain sight, and set the stage for the intrepid tactical specialists who often found themselves under fire and outnumbered in their effort to apprehend those responsible for the carnage inside Israel. This is their compelling true story: a tale of daring and deception that could happen only in the powder keg of the modern Middle East. INCLUDES PHOTOGRAPHS AND MAPS

Book excerpt: Resilience God Style derives its primary content from Resilient Warriors, published in 2011. Since that time, the Resilient Warriors content (and the associated Resilient Warriors Advanced Study Guide) has proven relevant and popular across a wide range of venues, particularly as the primary texts for thousands of resilience students in psychology and counseling courses at Liberty University. Resilient Warriors content, now rebranded as "Resilience God Style," has also fueled hundreds of faith-based resilience presentations, training seminars, conferences, and small group studies. The Resilience God Style book has a companion Resilience God Style Study Guide for personal and small group use, helping one personalize applications of the content. As well, this Resilience God Style book content is further amplified in the Resilience God Style Video Series, a nine-week study program for churches, small groups, and other organizations. Finally, the Resilience God Style Training Game is available as a fun, dynamic, and educational faith-based board game for home schoolers, Christian schools, and multi-generational family use. We use the term resilience to describe the process of bouncing back, as well as "upstream" actions to prepare for the "storms of life" and to weather these storms "until the destruction passes by¿" (Psalm 57:1b) This resilience is a critical life skill for all of us, recognizing that adversity is an enduring reality and part of the "human condition." Resilience God Style uses Biblical truth as the primary source of enduring resilience principles and makes them available to "warriors" in every endeavor of life.

Their records, qualifications, and expertise combine to provide a comprehensive, passionate, and authoritative look at serving as a chaplain in today’s military. The book is well-researched, true to real life, and up-to-date. It is unparalleled in scope.
