Acupressure is so much more than simply pressing on a point. It is a comprehensive system for treating the body as a whole. When clients come to us with pain in a specific region, more often than not we focus on the part and forget about the whole. Most therapists treat shoulder pain by working just on the shoulder, which makes sense, but through the lens of acupressure and meridian massage, we see there often is more to a successful treatment than that. Seen through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the body is an interconnected whole. Understanding how it is connected, both physically and energetically, and being familiar with the pathways of connection, is fundamental. Acupressure and Meridian Massage guides practitioners through the connections of the body by combining ancient wisdom and modern science to provide a comprehensive system of assessment and treatment leading to long-lasting and improved results.

Bitterly disappointed at not getting home after their last adventure, Winnie has surrendered possession of the compass, while Almira's magic has flourished, developing unpredictable consequences of its use.In their desperate quest to survive, the three women face all new dangers--fairy changelings, eldritch monsters, and gothic vampires--leaving the burden upon Dorothy to discover the confidence to trust her own instincts and learn the value of her own inner wisdom.After all, there is no place like home.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERCHOSEN BY WATERSTONES AS ONE OF THEIR BEST POLITICS BOOKS OF 2024 From culture wars to clickbait, it’s fair to say that politics has lost some of its integrity, and we’ve all suffered as a result. If it hadn’t almost wrecked the country with calamitous consequences in nearly every sector of public life, it would be funny. We’ve let our standards drop – but we deserve better. Jess Phillips believes in democracy, and the people she meets give her cause for optimism even if sometimes politicians really (really) don’t. At once a laugh-so-you-don’t-cry takedown of the state of Westminster in recent years and a rallying battle cry for bringing truth back to politics, this book will make you angry, cheer you up and give you hope.
