If the world’s problems feel overwhelming and making a difference seems impossible, you’re not alone. So many of us wish we could be doing something good and purposeful, but we get stuck. We think that what we do won’t matter, or that we’ll do it wrong, or that we don’t have enough time or resources to begin with.

Am I There Yet?
Summary
New York Times best seller This on-point guide to growing up by Instagram sensation Mari Andrew features “[A]chingly vulnerable and completely relatable watercolor illustrations about relationships, heartbreak, and the struggles of urban life.” (The Washington Post) In the journey toward adulthood, it is easy to find yourself treading the path of those who came before you; the path often appears straight and narrow, with a few bumps in the road, and a little scenery to keep you inspired. But what if you don’t want to walk a worn path? What if you want to wander? What if there is no map to guide you through the detours life throws your way? From creating a home in a new city to understanding the link between a good hair dryer and good self-esteem to dealing with the depths of heartache and loss, these tales of the 20-something document a road less traveled - a road that sometimes is just the way you’re meant to go. Praise for Am I There Yet?: “Equal parts memoir and illustrated guidebook, it chronicles Andrew’s journey through adulthood as she navigates love and heartbreak, professional indecision and success, and personal struggles.” (Refinery29) “Using her artistic skills to illustrate thought-provoking essays, Andrew inspires readers to take the path less traveled in life.” (CNN) “The illustrations...are often packed with truths about dating, self-care, careers, and all the secret thoughts you never say out loud.” (Elle) PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Despertar del Chakra [Chakra Awakening]
Summary
El poder de la mente es ilimitado y sus talentos son infinitos. Normalmente, nuestra imaginación se queda en blanco, mirando el mundo que nos rodea a través de los sentidos. Los sentidos hacen que la mente oiga, sienta, perciba, vea y pruebe. A través de la meditación, dirigiremos nuestros pensamientos hacia ellos mismos. Este proceso abre un mundo completamente nuevo para nuestra conciencia. Al mirar hacia adentro, podemos ver todos los aspectos del cuerpo a través de la meditación. Las células en crecimiento, en cada porción, pueden presentarse y preguntarse si hay problemas o dolor en su entorno. Esta irritación puede surgir como dolor, crecimiento o lesión. Puede ocurrir en múltiples aspectos de la mente o el cuerpo y puede convertirse en un trastorno que pone en peligro la vida si no se le llama la atención. ¿Y cómo nos miramos hacia adentro? El proceso comienza con una profunda meditación. Es un proceso de relajación, normalmente en una silla, que nos ayuda a relajar nuestros músculos. Se puede ver a la mente como un lago de olas. La mayoría de las personas pasan la mayor parte del tiempo en este estado con los sentidos en el mundo, necesitando siempre aprender e interpretar lo que perciben de la información que reciben de los sentidos. Llevarás tu parte consciente por medio de la meditación a la parte inconsciente de la mente y extenderás tu conciencia. Será como bucear. Experimentarás el agua como tal, en lugar de las olas en la superficie. No sólo eso, podrás ver los pensamientos que se forman como burbujas que se originan en lo profundo de la mente, en la raíz del pensamiento. Eso podría verse como una pequeña burbuja del fondo de la piscina. La burbuja se hará más grande y más fuerte a medida que la presión del agua disminuya hasta que alcance la superficie, y aparezca en tu cabeza de forma natural, como olas en la playa. Meditar es una experiencia encantadora, calmante y creciente. Cuando te sientas en una silla y empiezas a enfocar tu mente, la parte consciente empieza a calmarse y la imaginación se expande. En lugar de tener emociones, tenderás a sentir los impulsos de energía que componen la sensación. Esto se puede sentir como polvo ligero, como movimiento en la oscuridad de la mente. Una sensación de expansión de la conciencia no es muy distinta a la de un cielo nocturno claro, viendo todas las estrellas titilando en diferentes tamaños y colores. Este es un estado de paraíso, de amor eterno y de completa conciencia de toda la vida. Todas las diferentes secciones o estructuras de la mente pueden verse desde este punto. Considera que el yo es eterno, inmutable. Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Weight Loss for Middle-Aged Women
Summary
You want to lose weight, and you know losing weight can make you healthier and able to move more freely... yet you don’t lose weight. Weight Loss for Middle-Aged Women explores the psychological reasons for that paradox, looks at habits that may be holding you back, and offers strategies to get your weight loss back on track. Strategies such as these can really make a difference: Avoid liquid calories. Because the body does not register liquid calories the way it does solid calories, you may be consuming many calories without feeling satiated. Get adequate sleep. Sleep deprivation may have contributed to your weight gain and may prevent you from reaching your goal weight. Drink green tea. Before you dismiss this as too simplistic, how would you like to burn an extra 70 calories a day without doing anything different except drinking green tea? That new habit, all by itself, could eliminate seven and a half pounds of excess weight over a year, a study showed. Switch out those sugary drinks for green tea to lose weight even faster.

Revelation
Summary
Russell Brand takes a deep, earnest, yet witty dive into the meaning of life, death, and the sacred space in between in this compelling Audible Original. An Aussie woman living alone in a forest, at one with nature and technology. A former addict celebrating an anniversary in recovery with friends - all ex-addicts - at a humble community center in LA. A man, no stranger to personal tragedy, training others to swim in arctic waters. The mortality of a close friend, a beloved pet cat, and - ultimately - ourselves. Russell Brand finds the sacred in all these people, locations, and experiences and advocates for discovering and embracing the sacred that is in all that surrounds us. Not an easy task in a world filled with the distractingly profane and our culture’s high value of emptier qualities, like celebrity and wealth, often at the expense of kindness and connection. Unsparing of himself, and with insights that are sure to resonate with any listener, Revelation sets a context for our need for the sacred - especially now, given current societal fragmentation and the dearth of mitigating social and political ideas. This Audible Original will truly change your perspective and, in the process, your life.
