Chris Baréz-Brown Bücher

Dieses Buch macht wach. Es versammelt 54 Ideen, Anleitungen und Experimente zum Mitmachen für den kleinen Ausbruch aus dem Alltag. Auf spielerische Weise verhilft es so zu mehr Achtsamkeit und Lebensfreude und schenkt neue Perspektiven. Immer mehr Tage ziehen in absurder Geschäftigkeit vorüber. Die Zeit vergeht einem schneller und schneller, während die Gedanken die To-do-Liste rauf- und runterspringen. Verbundenheit, ein Gefühl von Bewusstsein für die eigene Umgebung – Fehlanzeige. Das Leben läuft auf Autopilot … Jeder kennt diesen Zustand. Chris Baréz-Brown zeigt, wie man ihm entkommt: mit unorthodoxen Mitteln – »Verlauf dich«, »Kletter auf einen Baum«, »Leb von 5 Euro am Tag« – und der Konzentration auf Kreativität und die eigenen Sinne. Wake up! wird so zum charmanten Abenteuerbuch in Sachen Achtsamkeit.

This is a painstaking survey of every Scottish battle from Mons Graupius AD 84 to Culloden 1746. Scotland has been formed by war to a greater extent than almost any other nation—war against the Romans, the Vikings, one another and, throughout the medieval and early modern eras, with England. Many of Scotland's battlefields have already been covered by modern developments, many more are at risk, often because their existence, let alone significance, is known to so few. If battles are "no more than the punctuation marks of history" it is not enough to know where these punctuation marks occurred, it is important to understand why.

Over 80 per cent of our waking time is spent on autopilot. We all know the feeling of driving a long distance and arriving at our destination with little memory of the journey. That's because when we are doing routine activities our subconscious takes over to save energy: we are on autopilot. This doesn't just happen when we drive. It happens every day when we are at work, with our loved ones, or simply living our lives. Wake Up! is a series of experiments designed to help you break free from this trap. From climbing a tree to writing a letter, here are a year's worth of balanced, playful experiences that will engage your imagination and stimulate your senses. By escaping autopilot more often you'll feel tuned in, tap in to who you really are, and make every day count.

Life and work are intrinsically linked. They are not separate; they are one. If we want to live an extraordinary life, we have to make our work equally extraordinary. When your work resonates with purpose, you jump out of bed every morning, excited by the possibilities the day holds for you. Everything else in your life seems to have a glow about it, and you exude much more personal shine. My aim in writing this book is to help you feel like that every day. To help you make your work work for you. To feel truly free. Reading Free! will remind you that you are fantastic and have the ability to do amazing things; show you that work is your slave, not the other way round; help you make work your ticket to an extraordinary future; and put you in the driving seat and show you a route to freedom.

Od wspinaczki na drzewo po napisanie listu: masz przed sobą roczny zapas zapewniających dobrą zabawę doświadczeń, kt�re zaangażują twoją wyobraźnię i pobudzą zmysły.Wymykając się częściej spod władzy autopilota, ruszysz w kierunku najlepszej wersji siebie, poczujesz się lepiej we własnej sk�rze i sprawisz, że każdy dzień będzie wyjątkowy.
