Book excerpt: The longer I live, the more I realize how many people go through life suffering needlessly. They suffer because of events in their past, they suffer because of what someone else says or does, they suffer because of subconscious programming from the past. This programming says they are not good enough, they are not worthy, they are not important, and they can't do anything. This book was written to help end the needless suffering that has gone on for far too long--to let you know who you are at a fundamental level. It reveals how the power of thought can be harnessed to change your reality and create the life you desire and deserve. At the deepest level, you will discover your true self and power. Then you will realize what the musical group America meant when they said, "Oz didn't give nothing to the Tin Man that he didn't already have." We have everything we need to lead joyous lives filled with abundance, gratitude, and power. We need only tap the power within, and to remember, "We are Enough!"

Book excerpt: In a culture that tells men to suppress instead of express, join bestselling author, speaker, and leader Jason Wilson (featured in the award-winning ESPN documentary The Cave of Adullam) as he calls us to unlearn society's definition of masculinity and discover the power of engaging with our emotions. For decades, Jason was losing the war within--the internal battle that many men wage on a daily basis. He struggled to combat his toxic thoughts and emotions, communicating without composure, and ultimately hurting himself and his loved ones. When Jason began to release years of unresolved trauma, he learned how to acknowledge his emotions and express them in a healthy way. He discovered that he was strengthened by transparency and vulnerability, which taught him to forgive, trust, and love without limitations. Soon, Jason's newfound practices began to heal his relationships and transform his life. Throughout his journey of opening up, Jason became a better husband, father, and leader--and you can, too. Supported by Biblical teachings, the lessons that Jason shares in Battle Cry teach us that we can all be empowered to break through what we've been through. Jason calls us to become better versions of ourselves, equipping us with the mental and spiritual weapons needed to redefine modern masculinity and showing us how to: embrace our emotions rather than be ruled by them win internal battles before they become external wars break free from misconstrued masculinity and embrace our humanity communicate more effectively with the people in our lives heal trauma from our past in order to live our fullest lives in the present Battle Cry proves that it's possible to live beyond the limitations of your mind and finally experience the full life you've always longed for. What are you waiting for? It's time to win the war within.
Download or read book Grave Anatomy written by Tony Wilson, (Pr and published by Grave Matters. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know the human body contains silicon, a common component in computer devices? The silicon in the human body could be used to operate the device you are using right now. Unless you favor old-school communication, in which case you may prefer a pencil. There's enough carbon in the human body to make 16,000 pencils. In the event you run out of paper, you could scribble on your arms, legs, and back. After all, the human body is covered with about two square yards of skin...plenty of writing surface to spare. The human body is a wonderful resource...mustn't let it go to waste. That's the point behind Grave Anatomy: 101 Uses for a Dead Human Body, a lighthearted, whimsical, well-researched look into what makes up the human body...and what can be made out of it. Examining the historical, scientific, and speculative benefits of a stiff, this book discusses: how 19th century British colonists in Egypt supposedly used mummies to power locomotives, because wood and coal were scarce; how some of the key ingredients to a 4th of July picnic (charcoal bricks, matches, fireworks) are all found in the human body; and how a long-distance runner could stay hydrated for over 40 hours with the 10 gallons of water found in the average person.
