An expert therapist and teacher leads you on a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing from collective and intergenerational trauma, based in the powerful practice of Internal Family Systems therapy.
The Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of psychotherapy is acclaimed for its power to help us recognize and integrate disparate parts of ourselves—a revolutionary course of treatment that can yield extraordinary results. But not all the work of IFS takes place in the confines of traditional therapy sessions. In this thoughtful and compassionate guide, Tamala Floyd, LCSW, gives readers the resources to expand their “parts work” beyond the therapist’s office and into daily life—where the real healing happens.
To write Listening When Parts Speak, Floyd draws on 20-plus years of experience as a psychotherapist, teacher, consultant, and coach specializing in healing trauma, and in particular, intergenerational trauma. Each chapter offers lucid explanations of key concepts, illustrative stories from patients (as well as Floyd’s own experience), and a guided meditation that can be used either in between therapy appointments to support and reinforce the work or as a way to begin an IFS therapy journey. In these pages, readers will:
• Explore the healing principles of IFS therapy
• Get to know their own parts—including wounded “exiles” and dedicated “protectors”
• Foster a trusting connection between the parts and the secure Self that connects them all
• Start to free themselves from beliefs that no longer serve them
• Connect with the wisdom and guidance of ancestors for deeper understanding and healing
Practitioners, too, will find Listening When Parts Speak an invaluable resource for supporting their patients and enhancing their own practice.
‘हे बुद्ध, मैं तुमको, धम्म को और संघ को शरणागत हूँ . . . बस, यही त्रिरत्न मेरी कुल संपदा है अन्यथा और कुछ भी नहीं है मेरे पास . . . बौद्ध धर्म के पालन के लिए किसी भी व्यक्ति को तीन बातों पर अमल करना होगा : पहली उसे सभी सिद्धांतों की जानकारी हो। दूसरी सिद्धांतों को व्यवहार में लाने के लिए रूपरेखा सामने हो। तीसरी रूपरेखा को व्यवहार में उतारने के लिए साहस, संकल्प व अनुशासन हो। यह पुस्तक पहली दो आवश्यकताओं की पूर्ति करती है, जबकि तीसरी आवश्यकता को पूरा करना आप पर निर्भर है यह धम्म की पुकार थी कि धम्मचारी सुभूति के शृंखलाबद्ध प्रवचनों का अनुवाद करने का विचार मन में उठा। इसी का प्रतिफल यह पुस्तक है, जो हर किसी को धम्म पर चलने और बुद्धत्व प्राप्त करने का मार्ग दिखाएगी।
All incredible entrepreneurs have some fundamental traits in common!
Founders: A unique species of humans engaged in the most productive action that ego can drive. Who put in every ounce of energy to survive and succeed big. Whose journey is so transformative that many lifetimes worth of evolution can get packed into it. Tightrope to the Moon takes readers into the mind of the ‘mega founder’ and decodes how they think, operate and successfully navigate the ultra-competitive startup racetrack. The book unpeels how the founder’s need to prove is first born in a tangible form, grows bigger, survives blow after blow, and yet comes out in front to lead the pack. Based on the author’s over two decades of experience as a venture capitalist, the book uses incisive insights and compelling case studies to unravel the secrets of successful founders. A must-read for founders, their families and their co-workers, this seminal work is a much-needed account of how founders walk the long, treacherous road to success.

Vaishali Shroff traces the journey of these scientists, detailing the challenges they faced—financial scarcity, gender bias, inadequate facilities and infrastructure—as she takes us through the evolution of science in India over three centuries.
From the author of the multimillion-copy bestseller Normal People, an exquisitely moving story about grief, love and family.
Aside from the fact that they are brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common.
Peter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties – successful, competent and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father’s death, he’s medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women – his enduring first love Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke.
Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, and their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined.
For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude – a period of desire, despair and possibility – a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking.

“An endearingly pathetic antihero with delusions of greatness. . . . Seldom has failure been so likable — or so funny.”
— The Wall Street Journal
Timmy Failure is a brilliantly bad eleven-year-old detective and CEO of his own detective agency “Total Failure, Inc”. Assisted by his polar bear sidekick, Total, Timmy sets out to solve mysteries, fight evil, make money to pay his mum’s bills and most importantly defeat his arch-enemy Corrina Corrina (the-girl-who-shall-not-be-named) who has a rival agency and top marks at school to boot. Timmy and Total’s antics are unfailingly hilarious and their clueless yet strangely over-confident attempts to fight crime will have you crying with laughter.
Written and illustrated by comic genius Stephan Pastis, the cartoon illustrations bring the stories to life. Pastis turned his hand to children’s fiction with the first Timmy Failure book Mistakes Were Made in 2013. It was an instant bestseller in the US and is soon to be made into a Disney film.
There are now seven books in the series which is a must for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Barry Loser or Tom Gates, and all readers aged 8 and upwards who love silly stories. The comic adventures of Timmy and Total are riotous but also surprisingly poignant and may bring a tear to your eye.
Start with Book 1 to get Timmy’s back story and his “historical record of my life as a detective”, rigorously fact-checked by Timmy himself and prepare for a side-splitting adventure.
This Collection Includes:
1. Mistakes Were Made
2. Now Look What You’ve Done

5. The Book You’re Not Supposed to Have
‘Ground-breaking. Everyone should read this book’ Bessel van der Kolk, author of The Body Keeps the Score
When it comes to understanding the connection between our mental and physical health, we should be looking at the exceptions, not the rules.
Dr Jeff Rediger, a world-leading Harvard psychiatrist, has spent the last fifteen years studying thousands of individuals from around the world, examining the stories behind extraordinary cases of recovery from terminal illness.
Observing the common denominators of people who have beaten the odds, Dr Rediger reveals the immense power of our immune system and unlocks the secrets of the mind-body connection. In Cured, he explains the vital role that nutrition plays in boosting our immunity and fighting off disease, and he also outlines how stress, trauma and identity affect our physical health.
In analysing the remarkable science of recovery, Dr Rediger reveals the power of our mind to heal our body and shows us the keys to good health.
