    It’s not about when to eat. It’s about building thinking habits, proven through science, that help you lose weight.There are so many myths surrounding weight loss: Setbacks mean failure. Big results require big goals. You need to power through alone. You have to hate your body to lose weight. Happiness awaits you only at the end of the journey.All of these are untrue, unhelpful—and actually undermine long-term weight loss.Dr. Gary Foster’s 7 Mindset Shifts show you how to—and why you should—treat yourself in a way that feels better and primes you for likelier success. His argument and the techniques in each chapter, built on years of research and breakthroughs in cognitive behavioral therapy and positive psychology, can lead to results on the scale—but, more important, in your own thinking. The Shift flips old-fashioned weight-loss theory on its head, training you to recognize when your thinking is taking you away from your goals, to focus on action rather than outcome, and to value non-scale victories more than the number on the digital display. It’s evidence-based motivation—and it really works!The 7 Mindset Shifts include treating yourself with compassion, leaning into your strengths, appreciating the power of small steps (and more frequent rewards), finding your people, and truly relaxing into happiness and gratitude.“Diet thinking” isn’t habit-forming; mindset shifts are. And muscular yet kind mental habits, like the ones found in The Shift, are key to long-term, positive change.

    A new and surprising world is emerging that requires each of us to explore the sources of our love and cultivate them and the inner sources of all that prevents us from loving (our fears) and heal them. Our evolution has taken a new path, and our relationships are changing in unexpected and dramatic ways. We are evolving beyond the limits of our five senses and encountering more expanded experiences of ourselves and our world than were previously possible. Where once our perception was confined to what we see, hear, taste, touch, and smell, we are now increasingly able to access data that these senses cannot detect. This expanded perception is forever altering our experiences of ourselves, our world, and our relationships. Our evolution now presents us at each moment with a profound choice: we can pretend that our lives and the world are not changing and continue to relate to one another as before, or we can use our relationships to transform ourselves into authentically powerful, loving individuals. In Spiritual Partnership, bestselling author Gary Zukav reveals a profound new relationship dynamic that enables us to reach our full potential and create authentic power—the fulfilling and joyful life that is calling to us all. Spiritual partnerships are not only for couples in marriage; they can be created anywhere two or more individuals decide to engage as equals for the purpose of spiritual development.

The world is changing around us and within us, and Spiritual Partnership is the road map to that change.

    It's filled with strategies for cultivating vitality--the positive feeling of aliveness and energy that lies at the core of wellbeing. While the concept is often associated with healthy aging, whether you're twenty or eighty, vitality helps you get the most out of each day and live your life to the fullest. Vitality is associated with positive health outcomes like productivity, better coping with stress and challenges, greater mental health and the ability to manage negative emotions.Vitality comes, essentially, from living well within the world, and in her book Boardman discusses its three main wellsprings: meaningfully connecting with others, engaging in experiences that challenge you, and contributing to something beyond yourself. These activities foster resilience by boosting emotional stamina and supplying fortification in the face of daily stress.Counter to conventional wisdom, Boardman believes that the contemporary emphasis on self-focus flies in the face of research that meaningful connections and other-oriented actions are what strengthen us, whether that means having a good conversation, doing a favor for someone, going for a walk, or reading an interesting article then calling to tell a friend about it. It is such commonplace experiences and micro-moments that serve as the building blocks of everyday resilience. Everyday Vitality explains how to identify them in readers' own lives, develop them, and use them as a foundation to counter any of the nagging stresses that burden us on a daily basis.
