  Ignorance Is Not Bliss: Sweet Melissa, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 219min

  I broke out into a cold sweat, and tried to cry. The tears would not fall, because I knew in my heart that I had no one to blame for my situation but myself. I came from a good, loving family. I was never beaten or abused. We went on family vacations every summer. My childhood years could not have been more perfect. What was wrong with me? I looked closely into the mirror and saw the dark circles beneath my eyes. I was underweight and my long blonde hair was thinning. I looked away from the mirror quickly and sat on the cold, tile floor of this cheap motel bathroom. My hand shook a bit as I held the spoon full of heroin. I cooked it up with a blue lighter. I dropped in a small piece of cotton and drew up the liquid with a syringe. I injected the heroin and fell slowly back against the wall. The tile was no longer cold, and life did not seem so hopeless anymore. Sweet Melissa is an ongoing memoir series. It is the author's story about her lifelong struggle with addiction to heroin, her downward spiral towards self destruction, and finally her recovery. Follow the author down the dark path of substance abuse and the lifestyle that goes with it. In book one, the author gets involved with prostitution and drugs. She encounters a variety of people and finds herself addicted to heroin. With that addiction, she falls deeper and deeper into a hole of which she believes will never end. Her self-esteem diminishes, and her life seems worthless. This is a lifelong struggle with substance abuse leading to the one event that will finally end it all. This is not a few-months habit, but rather a way of life with no other choice at the time. Heroin and substance abuse cloud the mind from thinking properly. It deadens the senses and the soul. It puts you in places you could never imagine in your wildest dreams. Follow the Sweet Melissa series to find out what life changing event will finally open the author's eyes, and shine some hope on her for a brighter future. ungekürzt. Language: English.

  Ayurveda for Beginners: Vata: The Only Guide You Need to Balance Your Vata Dosha for Vitality, Joy, and Overall Well-being!! (eBook, ePUB)

  Are you underweight? Are you easily fatigued? Do you experience discomfort in the joints? Do you suffer from dryness, insomnia, constipation? Are you constantly restless or agitated? Is your skin dry, rough, thin? If so, you need to balance your Vata Dosha... Ayurveda, which derives from ancient Vedic scriptures, is a 5,000-year-old medical ideology and philosophy based on the idea that we are all made up of different types of energy.There are three doshas in Ayurveda that describe the dominant state of mind/body-Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. While all three are present in everyone, Ayurveda suggests that we each have a dominant dosha that is unwavering from birth, and ideally an equal (though often fluctuating) balance between the other two. Vata, Pitta, and Kapha are all important to our biology in some way, so no one is greater than, or superior to, any other. Each has a very specific set of basic functions to perform in the body.That said, when the doshas are out of control, our wellbeing can be damaged. However, before we get into the particulars of each of the three doshas, it is helpful to understand their basic nature and their wider function in the natural world.Each of the doshas has its own special strengths and weaknesses, and with a little awareness, you can do a lot to remain healthy and balanced. You can use this series to adjust your lifestyles and routines in a way that supports your constitution. I've made a complete series of these three. This is Vata; the other two are also available.Because Pitta and Kapha cannot pass without it, Vata is assumed to be the chief of the three Ayurvedic Standards in the body. It is therefore really important to keep Vata in a good balance.Vata reflects the energy of motion and is therefore always associated with the wind (and the element of air). Vata is the invisible force of movement-composed of space and air. It controls breathing, blinking, contraction of muscle and tissue, pulsation of the heart, and all movements of the cytoplasm and cell membranes. Vata encourages innovation, creativity, and versatility in a balanced way. But it also causes fear and anxiety when out of control.In Ayurvedic medicine, the Vata Dosha is the lightest and most innovative of all doshas. When Vata type are out of control, their creative minds and bodies, which are always on their way, will overwhelm themselves with fear and chaos. In this book, we'll dive deeper into what Vata means, what throws Vata out of balance, and how to identify the Vata Dosha in your environment, in yourself, and in others.With this book, I'm going to share with you everything you need to know in order to balance your Vata Dosha and use it for your overall vitality, joy, and well-being.

  Check Out Girl

  Samantha Roark was running out of time. Only seventeen years old, she was hooked on speed, frighteningly underweight and desperate. She gathered her strength and went to the cemetery where her beloved grandmother had recently been buried. Crouched there beside the headstone, she prayed. Please God, I need some help. Four hours later Sam was arrested. That was two years ago. In September, 2010, she wowed festival audiences in Clay County, Kentucky with the launching of her debut CD, Check Out Girl, produced by country music veteran artist/producer Joe Sun. The work has been praised by insiders including Cowboy Jack Clement (Charley Pride, Johnny Cash), who pointed to the innate "calming" quality of her vocal style, and WKLB's legendary Cornbread Barker, who said: "I've been in this business 30 years, and this is as good as it gets." "That arrest was the miracle I'd prayed for," Sam reflects. "I went into a program called Drug Court, got clean, and healthy. Thanks to the court's program, I am alive today. I don't think I would have lasted another month on the path I'd been on. As it was, I got a second chance, and an opportunity to get back to the music I love." Sam was born to a musical family in Clay County, Kentucky. She started singing at age three, and playing the piano at four. "Everybody played instruments," she says. "My uncles played guitars, my grandpa, "Jamup" Miller, played. My grandma, Georgia Juanita Miller was a songwriter with songs that had been published in Nashville. But I wasn't much of a singer until I was twelve, and my voice matured. Up until then the family thought I was going to be the only Miller in history who couldn't sing a note!" In fact, Sam's voice sounded like an adult by the time she hit her teens, and she quickly became known for it throughout the area. Sam excelled during her first two years of high school. She was a high achiever in both music and sports - singing in the choir, playing in the band, running track and playing varsity basketball. But it was through her sports competitions that she connected to the drug world, and went on the downhill spiral that finally came to a halt in a Manchester, Kentucky graveyard. It was a hard road back, but with support from her uncle Robert Reid and the great grandmother who raised her, Sam made it. She displayed the same heart and determination in recording her debut CD with Sun. Using top Nashville pickers and recording songs by hit-making writers including Gail Davies, Ron Davies, Rich Fagen, Shawn Kamp and John Scott Sherrill, Sun and Roark have constructed an album blending contemporary radio ready American music with deep traditional roots. The tracks are clean, crisp and open, leaving space for Sam's compelling voice to showcase a remarkable song repertoire. This is a collection of keepers. Says Sam: "We didn't want something that just had a couple of memorable songs, with the rest forgettable. We looked for the best, and I think we got them." Producer Joe Sun agrees. "We went to the best writers, and got their best songs - the gems - the songs that had been out there demanding to be sung. That goes for Sam's performance, too. It is a talent that demands to be heard, and Check Out Girl is a CD that is different from anything you're going to hear in today's market. Once you listen you are never going to forget Sam Roark.
