    Evolution Can't be True Because I Don't Like Bananas: My Ponderings on Mr. Darwin's Flawed Theory , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 31min
    Here again, I will be gracing another major subject with my irreproachable wisdom and my brain-flipping intelligence, in this audiobook. I doubt that there is a single evolutionist who can match wits with me because I am a student of life and of nature. My own self-administered studies are far greater than those that can be offered by universities and schools (not to degrade the importance of them for most people) or by attaining educational degrees and credentials (also very important for the right people). I need none of these things personally because I have already attained an education on my own, that far exceeds those that would provide me an officially-recognized expertize on any of the subjects I address. No, it is rather my own students - those who follow my written dissertations and teachings, who supply me with the credentials of an expert. Now here we go, into those golden gates of my chapters, which will forever change your brain for the better. You will in fact become 'brain-flipped,' so brace yourself and delve into my words of infallible wisdom! I hereby grant you permission to proceed! ungekürzt. Language: English.

    By the time native Sicilian Mariagrazia Buttitta turned 26, she’d planned out the perfect life. After finishing her residency in Buongiorno Medical School, she’d be primed for a job at the prestigious Roma Hospital, the first step toward becoming an Italian Dr. Oz. And what life is complete without a handsome prince by her side, gracing the face of Italian People Magazine as one part of Italy’s “Most Beautiful Couple”?   Instead, she wakes up to discover a medical diagnosis that leaves her almost completely blind. Her family, frustrated and desperate, seeks medical aid in the US, but it comes with a steep price. Along the way, Mariagrazia must battle bullies, an obsessive lover, and her two biggest enemies: anxiety and depression. Tortured by her thoughts, she finds herself toeing the line between life and death, contemplating ending it all. As a last resort, she turns to a childhood diary of poems and creative writing to rediscover herself and the will to live...before it’s too late.    Now I See is a heart-wrenching yet humorous true tale of struggle, survival, amazing grace, unconditional love, and a fresh look at the American dream. It’s an account of one young woman’s journey overcoming devastating odds while stumbling her way through darkness into light. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Judy Krause.

    Gawky: Tales from an Extra Long Awkward Phase , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 435min
    Some tall girls grow up to have perfect posture and are later seen gracing the pages of magazines. Some are natural athletes with toned legs that mask their overlarge feet. Then there are other tall girls: the ones who are always tripping over themselves; who never look normal in any size of clothing; who literally don’t fit in. Comedian Margot Leitman was one of these awkward giants, and Gawky is the painfully funny chronicle of her experiences growing up tall. Reaching five feet six inches in fourth grade - and approaching six feet in high school - Leitman realized early on that she'd always stand out from the crowd. To cope, she developed a thick skin and a sharp sense of humor, and instead of forever trying to blend in, she decided to embrace her center-of-attention status. Leitman wears funky, Ziggy Stardust-era jumpsuits (in the 90s); takes up any cause she can find (whether saving the public beaches or protesting prom); and generally makes as much use of her big presence as humanly possible. Leitman’s memoir is a hilarious celebration of growing up gangly. Endearing and encouraging, Gawky is a cathartic release of everything awkward girls endure - and a tribute to a youth larger than life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Margot Leitman.

    It’s Time: Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life, Change The World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 528min
    Homo sapiens have grown and evolved since first gracing the planet around 300,000 years ago. During that time, we have learned much about ourselves and the universe. But today we face a stark choice, and it is what we have learned about the nature of reality that is bringing this choice into sharper focus. Do we continue to grow and evolve, thereby transforming human life on Earth? Or do we die out, simply because we do not choose to accept who we really are?Paradoxically, the key to unlocking an expansive and positive future is the realization that time is an illusion. What follows from this notion is that our experience of physical reality is a reflective projection of consciousness, within consciousness itself.  This book is a presentation of a new model of the world based on these two ideas. Through this model, we can find the confidence to face up to the big questions of life.  What do we need to do to live the life that we want to live? What is the meaning of human life? What happens after death? What is the cause, meaning, or purpose of suffering? What is the nature of God, or Source, or Spirit? Are we alone in the universe? What do we need to do to heal humanity and the planet?    ungekürzt.

    A Meditation to Promote General Wellness, Hörbuch, Digital, 69min
    Some guided meditation audios are designed to perennially appeal to just about anyone, and this highly acclaimed, all-purpose wellness and holistic healing meditation by psychotherapist and guided imagery pioneer Belleruth Naparstek has been one of them for over two decades. By combining affirmations with Steven Mark Kohn's exquisite, immersive music, it promotes peace, relaxation, uplift and resilience of mind, body, and spirit, supporting physical and emotional health seamlessly and naturally. Physiologically accurate imagery of the normal cycle of cell loss and healthy re-growth are translated into metaphors from the natural world of a healing light, breeze and mist, all designed to clear away unhealthy or outworn tissue and make room for strong, new growth. A parallel set of psychological images suggest the clearing away old guilt, fear and resentment, and making way for a fresh, new sense of love, appreciation, and gratitude. The net effect of this beautiful meditation for healing and wellness is a greater feeling of safety and support, a stronger sense of connection to self and others, and a new energy, ease, and inner peace gracing each day. A separate track of affirmations offers briefer versions of the same healing images and ideas, for those who prefer listening to a briefer format, while on the go or even while driving. An additional track of Steve's music on its own helps listeners integrate and solidify the wellness gains they have made with the narratives, ensuring its stability and longevity. Language: English.

    A Broken Hallelujah: Rock and Roll, Redemption, and the Life of Leonard Cohen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 402min
    Brings to life a passionate poet-turned-musician and what compels him and his work.Why is it that Leonard Cohen receives the sort of reverence we reserve for a precious few living artists? Why are his songs, three or four decades after their original release, suddenly gracing the charts, blockbuster movie sound tracks, and television singing competitions? And why is it that while most of his contemporaries are either long dead or engaged in uninspired nostalgia tours, Cohen is at the peak of his powers and popularity?These are the questions at the heart of A Broken Hallelujah, a meditation on the singer, his music, and the ideas and beliefs at its core. Granted extraordinary access to Cohen’s personal papers, Liel Leibovitz examines the intricacies of the man whose performing career began with a crippling bout of stage fright, yet who, only a few years later, tamed a rowdy crowd on the Isle of Wight, preventing further violence; the artist who had gone from a successful world tour and a movie star girlfriend to a long residency in a remote Zen retreat; and the rare spiritual seeker for whom the principles of traditional Judaism, the tenets of Zen Buddhism, and the iconography of Christianity all align. The portrait that emerges is that of an artist attuned to notions of justice, lust, longing, loneliness, and redemption, and possessing the sort of voice and vision commonly reserved only for the prophets.More than just an account of Cohen’s life, A Broken Hallelujah is an intimate look at the artist that is as emotionally astute as it is philosophically observant. Delving into the sources and meaning of Cohen’s work, Leibovitz beautifully illuminates what Cohen is telling us and why we listen so intensely. ungekürzt. Language: English.
