In today's socially and politically divided climate, anger is on the rise-even boiling over into violence. Anger is a natural human emotion, but chronic, uncontrollable anger can poison all aspects of personal and professional life. In The ACT Workbook for Anger, renowned acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) expert Robyn Walser helps readers who are trapped and struggling with anger to unlock their capacity for acceptance, mindfulness, kindness, and compassion.
Although the idea that women become raving lunatics when their hormones fluctuate is firmly entrenched in American culture, a thorough examination of the evidence overwhelmingly tells us otherwise. This provocative book exposes the pervasive myths about women's hormones-which lead to false beliefs about women's competence-by illustrating how flawed, obsolete research and sexism have combined to keep women ''in their place, '' and skillfully shows how women can reject the ''hormone myth'' and own their emotions in a healthy and realistic way

Questioning Gender: A Sociological Exploration aims to spark productive conversations and questions about gender and serve as a resource for exploring answers to many of those questions. Rather than providing definitive answers, this book aims to challenge students’ preconceptions about gender and demonstrate how gender as a system creates and reinforces inequality. Taking a global approach, author Robyn Ryle uses both historical and cross-cultural approaches to help students understand the socially constructed nature of gender. Through examining contemporary topics, including the #MeToo movement, sexual harassment in the workplace, and the gender wage gap, students will be prompted to think critically about past, present, and future gender-related issues. The Fifth Edition has been updated with expanded coverage of disability as it relates to gender, discussion of issues related to transgender and nonbinary people, and examination of the COVID-19 pandemic's gender-related effects, as well as updated data throughout.
Got it, is the new catchphrase to a life of unconditional love, romantic peace, inner peace and more...If you haven't got it, get it now. Someone has to do the right thing; someone has to be in the right. Got it? Is this book better, than all the other inner peace books? Well, let me tell you a story. All inner peace books are great for some and not so great for others. It has nothing to do with the author, it has everything to do with you. How ready are you for their explanation of what they have found worked for them? Will their light at the end of their tunnel be your light at that given moment in time? That very moment you decide you need help to change? My pain and more importantly my feelings of inner peace are here in these pages. I pray and trust that it will help someone, journey into a better way of living a more meaningful, peace persuaded life. I am a better person because of all the inner peace books I have read and written. Because, I want and need to love everyone even those difficult to love people. I need to accept people for who they are - not just take the easy road and push them out of my life. Without friends, family and colleges we are nothing and they are not always going to be in a pleasant mood. Therefore, it is up to us to be character rich, governed by extraordinary emotional controls, to be loving, empathetic, and constantly working on our own inner peace, keeping our own council, being patient - with those that could drive us up the wall and enjoying them, warts and all.Inner peace is not normal. It is a condition that takes time to gather and perfect. Once you become determined to have a marvellous life and start gathering inner peace mind muscles - you must work at increasing the strength of those muscles in your mind. One step at a time. One book, one lecture or symposium at a time. "Got It" is one of those books with a dash about my journey into inner peace. So, come with me on a journey into a magical world of inner peace, be more loveable and be loved unconditionally. Robyn xox
Learn to balance your Chakras with easy-to-follow instructions. What each chakra is in the power of, the crystals and essential oils that help with each energy center. As a catholic family in the 1940s we practiced a belief in a power greater than ourselves. My world as a daughter was easy and uplifting. Then my world as a wife and mother took me down a different road. Loving unconditionally opened a new set of thinking patterns and challenges. Everything I believed and understood as a daughter became questionable as a wife. Growing up in a loving home does not prepare you for mixing with people who have had a disturbed childhood. Save yourself with daily affirmations, mindfulness and weekly chakra balancing. Trust in a higher power, keep your own council and all will be well. Energy shifting more so than praying has worked miracles in my life and I think it will for you as well. But it must become a daily ritual. Nuns go to mass every day and a child I thought that must have been boring for them. I now know to have inner peace we must ask for it daily in some form or another. Through this simple, mind-body-spirit connection, the chakras give us ways to balance the whole system. Each of the seven chakras, aligned invisibly up and down the spinal column, stand for an important aspect of being in balance. Starting at the base of the spine and working upward, here's what the chakras can tell you about yourself, according to tradition. Be uplifted by chakra balancing and Reiki one instructions. This book was written because I am taking my grown-up family to a Healing Convention and needed to balance their chakras before we go. They went to a catholic school and are aware of a power greater than themselves but, see my new life and way of thinking as being that of a gypsy. I wanted them to understand that energy shifting is very powerful and has amazing benefits. Affirming to improve your life daily works differently from praying. Reiki is similar to praying because you are asking a higher power to bless you - with certain benefits. Whereas chakra balancing is more about unblocking negative energies. I do pray you will receive as much enlightenment from this brief to the point energy shifting book, as they did. Meditation can take a few seconds or many hours the choice is yours. I have included a click through to a biorhythm chart so you can check your biorhythms daily. How to Keep a moon calendar and keeping an eye on your moods due to where the moon is. This will give you further insights into how worldly energies affect you. I like to check my biorhythms the day before the full moon to prepare myself for energy shifting so I can take control of my emotions and avoid negative people around that time, . Especially if they do not work at energy shifting controls. I have been doing energy work now for over 50 years. Keeping a daily gratitude diary also helps to keep me focused on all the amazing things that are happening in my life. To focus on the good happenings and less on the negatives is a recipe for happiness. Enjoy and give me a thumbs up if this book helps you. Love and blessing from Robyn xxx
