The Enneagram for Moms

The Enneagram for Moms

Beth McCord

Thomas Nelson Publishers
2024
nidottu
Beth McCord, widely known as Your Enneagram Coach, takes women on a transformative journey through motherhood and parenting, blending Enneagram wisdom with practical insights to foster authentic and healthy family dynamics. This book helps moms not only paint a portrait of their family but cultivate resilience, self-awareness, and deep connections with God, their spouse, and their children.Beth unveils a guiding metaphor that brings clarity to the intricate art of parenting: diverse colors on a divine palette, graciously used by God to create the beautiful messiness of family life. These colors represent the unique motivations and strategies reflective of all nine Enneagram Types. This newfound awareness encourages parents to approach their children and themselves with more patience, curiosity, and grace, letting go of the need to "control" certain responses and prioritizing understanding and connection.The Enneagram for Moms will help mothers:discover how their distinct shades already color their parenting approach;gain valuable tools to help their children navigate their own emotional landscapes with self-awareness and resilience and communicate in healthy ways;see themselves and their children as God intends, breaking free from the cycles of mommy shaming and mommy guilting;recognize that each child already possesses a unique blend of colors, reflecting God's infinitely beautiful design;find healing for their emotional patterns and personality, allowing them to be healthy and positive influences in their children's lives; andbring healing to their wounded stories so they can break generational dysfunction and cycles. This essential resource speaks directly to the heart of every mother, caregiver, or concerned adult seeking guidance, peace, and healthy parent-child relationships. Moms no longer need to strive for perfection or conform to society's expectations or their own insecure standards of comparison. Instead, they can rely on God's providence and guidance while offering support to each family member as they grow more firmly into the unique person they were created to be.

Women Performing Music

Women Performing Music

Beth Abelson Macleod

McFarland Co Inc
2000
pokkari
This book explores the experiences of women from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries who pursued careers as public performers, charting a new course in an era when women's musical activities were generally consigned to the parlor. Certain instruments had historically evolved as "appropriate for women," and the flamboyant personalities and extroverted emotionalism of Romantic virtuosos and conductors were the antithesis of those qualities traditionally admired in women. However, this work presents an unusual group of young women who nonetheless became noted virtuosos, studying abroad as teenagers and touring North America upon their return. Detailed profiles are given of three remarkable musicians from among that unusual group: Fannie Bloomfield-Zeisler (1863-1927)--virtuoso pianist, wife and mother; Ethel Leginska (1886-1970)--pianist, conductor, and 1920s "new woman"; and Antonia Brico (1902-1989)--conductor and transitional figure to the late twentieth century. A concluding chapter contrasts the experiences of women classical musicians in the late nineteenth and the late twentieth centuries. Included are a number of photographs and drawings which impart the perceptions of audiences and critics of the stage presence of these performers.

The Vampire as Numinous Experience

The Vampire as Numinous Experience

Beth E. McDonald

McFarland Co Inc
2004
pokkari
The critical work examines the vampire as a spiritual figure--whether literal or metaphorical--analyzing how the use of the vampire in literature has served to convey both a human sense of alienation from the divine and a desire to overcome that alienation. While expressing isolation, the vampire also represents the transcendent agent through which individuals and societies must confront questions about innate good or evil, and belief in the divine and the afterlife. Textual experiences of the numinous in the form of the vampire propel the subject on a spiritual journey involving both psychological and religious qualities. Through this journey, the reader and the main character may begin to understand the value of their existence and the divine. A variety of works, poetry and fiction by British and American authors, is discussed, with particular concentration on Coleridge's "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, as representative of the Romantic, Victorian, and late twentieth century periods of literature. A conclusion looks at the future of the literary vampire.

The Power of Pictures

The Power of Pictures

Beth Olshansky

Jossey-Bass Inc.,U.S.
2008
nidottu
In The Power of Pictures book and companion DVD, Beth Olshansky introduces teachers to her innovative art-based approach to literacy instruction. Widely practiced in classrooms across the country, the model has been proven by research to improve literacy achievement with a wide range of learners, especially those who struggle with verbal skills. At the heart of her approach is the Artists/Writers Workshop. Through study of quality picture books and hands-on art experiences, students learn to visualize, “paint pictures with words,” and ultimately create their own extraordinary artistic and literary work. The book and DVD explain how any teacher can successfully use this process to enable all students, particularly low performers, to make dramatic gains in both reading and writing.

Life on the Edge of Faith

Life on the Edge of Faith

Beth Huener

CSS Publishing Company
2001
pokkari
Five characters bear witness to a world-changing event that forces them right to the edge of faith in this series of midweek worship services for Lent, which also includes services for Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, and Good Friday. Each service contains a brief sermon, and the five midweek services also feature monologues from the perspective of someone who was present at our Lord's Passion (a sleeping disciple, the high priest, a maid, a soldier, and a city resident). The bewilderment experienced by these characters will help worshipers find a voice for the confusion that we all feel from time to time. Life On The Edge Of Faith is a complete package of thematically related worship resources for the busy pastor looking for midweek programming. The monologues can be read by parishioners, and it's a great opportunity to have your young people participate in worship activities. A graduate of the University of Toledo and Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary (Berkeley, California), Beth Huener is an ordained ELCA pastor who has served parishes in Ohio and West Virginia. She is currently the interim pastor of Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Toledo, Ohio.

Ancient Trees

Ancient Trees

Beth Moon

Abbeville Press Inc.,U.S.
2014
sidottu
Beth Moon's fourteen-year quest to photograph ancient trees has taken her across the United States, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. Some of her subjects grow in isolation, on remote mountainsides, private estates, or nature preserves; others maintain a proud, though often precarious, existence in the midst of civilization. All, however, share a mysterious beauty perfected by age and the power to connect us to a sense of time and nature much greater than ourselves. It is this beauty, and this power, that Moon captures in her remarkable photographs. This handsome volume presents nearly seventy of Moon's finest tree portraits as full-page duotone plates. The pictured trees include the tangled, hollow-trunked yews - some more than a thousand years old - that grow in English churchyards; the baobabs of Madagascar, called 'upside-down trees' because of the curious disproportion of their giant trunks and modest branches; and the fantastical dragon's-blood trees, red-sapped and umbrella-shaped, that grow only on the island of Socotra, off the Horn of Africa. Moon's narrative captions describe the natural and cultural history of each individual tree, while Todd Forrest, vice president for horticulture and living collections at The New York Botanical Garden, provides a concise introduction to the biology and preservation of ancient trees. An essay by the critic Steven Brown defines Moon's unique place in a tradition of tree photography extending from William Henry Fox Talbot to Sally Mann, and explores the challenges and potential of the tree as a subject for art.

Literary Chickens

Literary Chickens

Beth Moon

Abbeville Press Inc.,U.S.
2018
sidottu
Fierce, funny, and flamboyant, fifty-two heritage-breed chickens assess the camera with a keen gaze. By focusing on the faces of her avian subjects, Beth Moon reveals them to us not just as beautiful and exotic creatures, but as individuals in their own right. Moon’s intimate portraits capture a startling range of emotions and personalities, underscored by excerpts from literature. A martial Spanish White Face is flanked by a passage from Beowulf; a fantastical Buff-Laced Polish, by a line from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland; and a refined Blue Polish, by a character sketch from Swann’s Way. An essay by chicken keeper and best-selling author Melissa Caughey and cultural critic Collier Brown sheds additional light on this fresh and remarkable body of work, which will appeal to animal lovers and literature buffs alike.

Baobab

Baobab

Beth Moon

Abbeville Press Inc.,U.S.
2021

"...Moon pays tribute to these endangered succulents, with dozens of breathtaking duotone portraits of some of the oldest baobab trees in Madagascar, Botswana, South Africa, and Senegal." — Architectural Digest "Baobab is photographer Beth Moon’s tribute to the magnificent, threatened trees upon which cultures and ecosystems depend. . . In the face of such monumental losses, the photographs in Baobab amount to an 'act of defiance.'" — Foreword Reviews, starred review A spectacular oversize photo book celebrating Africa’s most majestic trees-which are now facing an unprecedented ecological threat Baobabs are one of Africa’s natural wonders: they can live more than 2,000 years, and their massive, water-storing trunks can grow to more than one hundred feet in circumference. They serve as a renewable source of food, fiber, and fuel, as well as a focus of spiritual life. But now, suddenly, the largest baobabs are dying off , literally collapsing under their own weight. Scientists believe these ancient giants are being dehydrated by drought and higher temperatures, likely the result of climate change. Photographer Beth Moon, already responsible for some of the most indelible images of Africa’s oldest and largest baobabs, has undertaken a new photographic pilgrimage to bear witness to this environmental catastrophe and document the baobabs that still survive. In this oversize volume, Moon presents breathtaking new duotone tree portraits of the baobabs of Madagascar, Botswana, South Africa, and Senegal. She recounts her eventful journey to visit these monumental trees in a moving diaristic text studded with color travel photos. This book also includes an essay by Adrian Patrut, leader of a research team that has studied Africa's largest baobabs and alerted the world to the threat these majestic trees are facing. Baobab is not only a compelling photo book and travel narrative, but also a timely ecological warning.

From the photographer of Ancient Trees, a tribute to the best-loved tree of all: the oak. The oak: One of nature’s most majestic creations, sacred to Zeus and Thor, capable of living for a thousand years. But also a familiar friend, the landmark of childhood backyards and parks, host to tree-houses and swings, provider of welcome shade. In this beautiful volume, published in the same oversize square format as her best seller Ancient Trees ISBN 9780789211958, America’s foremost tree portraitist, Beth Moon, pays tribute to the oak. She captures every stage of its life cycle, from the acorn to the seedling to the sapling. Most of her hand-tinted full-page photographs, however, are devoted to mature oaks of the United States and the United Kingdom—both anonymous specimens whose gnarled, leafy personalities reveal themselves to her sensitive eye and famous trees with their own names and recorded histories stretching back centuries. A poetic text by the photographer traces the life cycle of the oak, and an essay illuminates the natural and cultural history of the genus Quercus. This book will be a must for all tree lovers, and anyone who has an oak in their garden.
