    Mermaid in a Bowl of Tears , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1769min
    The long-awaited sequel to Exit Unicorns opens in the autumn of 1969. Casey and Pamela Riordan have fled the erupting violence of Belfast, Northern Ireland, only to find themselves tangled in the web of political corruption that permeates South Boston. Here, a man's life can hang upon the whim of another, and neighborhood politics and organized crime are one and the same. While Pamela appears to flourish in the arena of Boston Irish society, Casey struggles to survive in a sphere where his presence has become increasingly inconvenient. Betrayed and blackmailed by friend and foe, the Riordans are forced to make desperate choices that bear heavy consequences. In the wake of tragedy, they return to Ireland and an alliance with James Kirkpatrick. It is here the bonds of love are tested - by the bloody price of rebellion, a past that is fraught with dangers of its own, friendships that carry a steep price, and a secret that threatens to tear their lives apart. Set against the backdrop of the gritty streets of Southie and the heartbreaking beauty of Ireland, Mermaid in a Bowl of Tears is a tale of the invincibility of the human spirit, imbued with the passion, humor, and magic inherent to the Emerald Isle. ungekürzt.

    The Motivation Hoax: A Smart Person's Guide to Inspirational Nonsense , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 253min
    Everywhere you look there's a motivational quote to greet you. Pursue your passion! Nothing is impossible! Happiness is a journey, not a destination! But what if there is actually scant evidence to back up these shimmering proclamations? What if positive thinking does not, in fact, lead to positive life outcomes? What if life is too short to not have regrets? In other words, what if many of our most cherished motivational platitudes simply aren't true? The Motivation Hoax offers sense in place of the sparkling nonsense that permeates the inspiration industry. It exposes the unrealistic clichés and misleading mantras that frequently just make you feel bad, replacing them with evidence-based insights that are no less motivating but are credible, reliable and, most importantly, scientifically tested. A reality check like no other, The Motivation Hoax is among the most refreshing, liberating and surprisingly comforting books you'll listen to this year.

    Acu-Yoga , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 405min
    If you had within reach the energy of the universe - the chi that permeates all things - you could create the health you want anytime, anywhere. In Acu-Yoga, you will learn a safe, natural self-healing system that regulates the flow of chi utilizing the practices of yoga and acupressure. The unrestricted flow of chi (or prana, as it is called in India) is the key to radiant health - regulating and balancing the entire body, including the emotions and mental functions. When the flow of chi is obstructed within the energy system of the body, the resulting imbalance can affect every aspect of your health. The Acu-Yoga program combines step-by-step yoga postures, breathing, and fingertip massage applied to the body's vital points to discharge harmful stress and toxins from your body. In seconds you can eliminate headaches, relieve lower back fatigue, induce a calming state, and recharge your body's reserves of vital energy. For more than 20 years, Dr. Michael Reed Gach has taught this "science of vitality" to thousands around the world - people with no training in yoga or acupressure - and helped them gain control over their health. Discover this practical dimension of self-care with the powerful techniques in Michael Reed Gach's Acu-Yoga. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Reed Gach.

    Our Covenant God: Learning to Trust Him, Hörbuch, Digital, 183min
    Someone loves you. Unconditionally, unshakable, unfailingly. That someone is God himself. But how can that be possible? Why would God love you so? Because he has fashioned an unbreakable covenant between himself and you. And he always keeps his promises. "Everything God does," says Kay Arthur, "is based on his covenant." And when you understand how thoroughly the dynamic concept of covenant permeates everything God says in his word and everything he does in our lives, you'll come to experience one of the most stabilizing, most freeing truths you'll ever know. In a culture in which unfaithfulness is rampant, God's "fierce, ferocious loyalty" toward us is difficult to imagine. And yet, through her characteristically warm and wise exploration of the scripture, Kay Arthur will lead you into discovering the stunning truth of God's covenant - and help you experience its revolutionary truth in your life. The Bible reveals the covenant bond to be the highest personal relationship possible. In ancient times, covenants were solemn, binding agreements supremely honored above all others. Making a covenant represented an unqualified, total commitment of one person to another - unconditionally, totally, eternally. As you follow the thread of God's covenant woven throughout the Bible, you'll discover the awesome privilege of getting to know the Lord as your Covenant God. Language: English. Narrator: Kay Arthur.

    Propaganda and American Democracy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 473min
    Propaganda has become an inescapable part of modern American society. On a daily basis, news outlets, politicians, and the entertainment industry - with motives both dubious and well-intentioned - launch propagandistic appeals. In Propaganda and American Democracy, eight writers explore various aspects of modern propaganda and its impact. Contributors include leading scholars in the field of propaganda studies: Anthony Pratkanis tackles the thorny issue of the inherent morality of propaganda; J. Michael Sproule explores the extent to which propaganda permeates the US news media; and Randal Marlin details the methods used to identify, research, and reform the use of propaganda in the public sphere. Other chapters incorporate a strong historical component. Mordecai Lee deftly analyzes the role of wartime propaganda, while Dan Kuehl provides an astute commentary on former and current practices, and Garth S. Jowett investigates how Hollywood has been used as a vehicle for propaganda. In a more personal vein, Asra Q. Nomani recounts her journalistic role in the highly calculated and tragic example of the ultimate act of anti-American propaganda perpetrated by al-Qaeda and carried out against her former colleague, Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl. Propaganda and American Democracy offers an in-depth examination and demonstration of the pervasiveness of propaganda, providing citizens with the knowledge needed to mediate its effect on their lives. The book is published by Louisiana State University Press. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeff D. Konrad. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/088044/bk_acx0_088044_sample.mp3.

    The Sufi Path of Love: Entering the Heart of Hearts, Hörbuch, Digital, 193min
    A lover of God, say the Sufi, is one who longs to be dissolved in the Beloved, in love's limitless ocean. For more than 10 centuries, the Sufi have perfected love's inner alchemy - the way the heart opens to the ecstasy of divine union. In The Sufi Path of Love, teacher and author Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee shares the secrets of this transformation, a "turning of the heart" that awakens the soul's innermost love affair. Weaving together dreamwork; the teachings of his own Naqshbandi order; the archetypal psychology of C. G. Jung; and more than 1,100 years of Sufi wisdom, poetry, and teaching stories, Vaughan-Lee takes us into the wonder of this spiraling inward journey. You will discover what is hidden within the deepest chamber of the heart; how this path uses the joys and sorrows of personal relationship as the prima materia for spiritual growth; how the fire of longing purifies us; and, finally, how the lover surrenders blissfully into the arms of the Beloved. "To be a lover of God is not an abstraction", teach the Sufi. "It is a reality that permeates every cell of your body." In The Sufi Path of Love, you are invited to share in this ancient wisdom of love and longing and to let your own heart's desire become a burning flame. Language: English. Narrator: Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/sp/true/000925/sp_true_000925_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
