That's why we'll figure it out together! Take the leap of faith with me and we'll demystify the mysterious, bust a few massage myths, and learn how to drop the worries and start focusing on outcomes. We'll get through it together, one chapter at a time.

Much needed.' FRANK SKINNER 'A hilarious, courageous and compelling read that explores the complicated relationship between culture, religion, identity and sexuality within the British Asian community. A must read for those who have lived it, and for those who haven't.' ANITA BHAGWANDAS 'Azmat raises complex, consequential matters with a lightness of touch. Sex Bomb is an easy read as she reflects candidly and boldly on her experiences and the factors that led to them.' CHORTLE __________ Sadia is a comedian who loves sex. She is also a hijab-wearing Muslim woman. The two are in a lifelong relationship, but it's complicated. Sadia Azmat has many different sides to her, she is the good Muslim sister and the loud and proud comedian, she is the quiet and loving friend and the horny and outspoken one. So why does everyone put her in a box and expect her to choose between one or the other? In a life of ups and downs, swings and roundabouts, Sadia has learnt the hard way that she can embrace her sexuality and be a proud British-Indian Muslim. From discovering her sexual identity after seeing a copy of Asian Babes on the shelf in the corner shop to rejecting an arranged marriage and feeling distanced from her culture; from her experience dating white and Asian men to her tumultuous relationship with her headscarf, Sadia is unafraid to spill the honest truth. Sadia finds the funny in every experience she has and this book explodes with personality, warmth and joy. This book is for anyone who has ever felt different or alone; allow this book to fill you up and propel you forward, because we all deserve to feel like a Sex Bomb. __________ 'Sex Bomb is so hilarious, raw and poignant. I couldn't put it down!' JENA FRIEDMAN 'Sex Bomb is a privilege and a joy to read, and everybody you've ever met should read it.' ANNE T. DONAHUE 'Refreshing, candid, hilarious and necessary.'

Book Synopsis Traumatic Scar Tissue Management by : Nancy Keeney Smith

Book excerpt: "Highly irreverent, but filled with wisdom and infused with deep caring, Mixed Nuts is a memoir of a life working in psychotherapy." "Some people assume that all therapists are new-agey hand-holders who just listen and nod like bobbleheads, then suggest an astrology reading, a gluten-free diet, and your choice of complimentary love flower or polished healing stone on your way out the door. That's not me. My job is to help fix what's broken." Speaking to the layperson and the practitioner alike, even Rick's signature humor can't hide his deep understanding of mental illness, his desire to help heal it quickly and effectively, and his pragmatic and often creative approach to treatment."

Download or read book Six to 6 written by Lenita Tillis and published by Whispering Wind Productions LLC. This book was released on 2024-08-11 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on true facts, this story starts in 1978 when Angela Johnson was put under false arrest and brutally gang raped. Angela was an innocent young Black nursing student and mother of three, living in Los Angeles when these events occurred. The men who raped Angela were officers suspected of being members of the notorious CRASH unit of the LAPD. The District Attorney, the LAPD and others colluded to protect the officers involved. This story is about underdogs battling giants. It is about the author’s quest to expose rapists and deceitful officials. This book captures the feelings and pressures two Black women faced amidst a city of corruption while preparing for the trial of their lives, a multimillion lawsuit filed in the Superior Court for the County of Los Angeles against CRASH officer Nick Norton, the LAPD and the City of Los Angeles. Angela Johnson’s horrifying experience was not an isolated incident. This book exposes lawlessness within the LAPD. Despite significant improvements due to federal oversight and the implementation of new rules, it is not enough to change the culture of racism and brutality in the LAPD. This book is relevant to all who are interested in the City of Los Angeles, the culture of police brutality, and social justice as a whole. This book grips the readers and throws them into an unimaginable and uncomfortable place. This book is the 1st in the author’s trilogy. Stay tuned for Book II and Book III.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was a beautiful fall day in Connecticut when Colleen Kelly Alexander, a lifelong athlete, rode her bike home from work. She had survived both a diagnosis of lupus and brain surgery, had a fulfilling career, and was married at last to the love of her life. Everything was good as she coasted along, meeting the eyes of a truck driver as he approached the stop sign beside her. He didn't stop. The truck hit Colleen, running over her lower body with front and back tires and dragging her across the pavement. As she bled out in the street, nearby strangers surrounded her and the driver attempted to get away. An EMT herself, Colleen knew she had to stay awake. "I've just been reconnected with my soulmate," she told the medic. "We want to have a baby. I can't die now. Please don't let me die." Five weeks in a coma and twenty-nine surgeries later, Colleen survived. Rather than let the trauma and PTSD control her life, she became determined to find a way to make something positive from her pain. She decided she'd run again and dedicate her race medals to the everyday heroes around us, including the medical staff and blood donors who saved her life. Since then Colleen has run fifty races and completed forty triathlons, including four half-Ironman events. Now a spokesperson for the Red Cross, Colleen shares her incredible inspirational story to encourage others to take that first step forward.
