Whatever it is you’re struggling with – running, career, relationship – Allie draws on her experience as a coach, runner, depressive and recovering alcoholic to show you how you can change things in yourself that you didn’t think it was possible to change. 31 Days follows up on ultrarunner Allie Bailey’s searingly honest autobiography There is No Wall.It takes the final chapter of that book which was the self-help rant you didn’t think you were buying and supercharges it, creating something relatable and tangible that you can actually take into your day-to-day life and make a lasting difference. While There is No Wall clearly said running won’t save you, perhaps this book will, with its zero-bullsh*t approach to mindset mentoring, and tools and exercises that enable you to do the work and create incredible results.Whatever it is you’re struggling with – running, career, relationship – Allie draws on her lived experience as an award-winning coach, runner, depressive and recovering alcoholic, to show you how you can change things in yourself that you didn’t think it was possible to change.

But be warned, this book contains no quick fixes – it is down to you to do the work.It’s never too late to change, you’re not ‘just the way you are’, and it’s never too late to tell that doubting voice you have lived with for decades to kindly go f@*k itself.Are you ready to begin? <br><br> Autorid: Allie Bailey <br>

According to Isaiah 55:11, it does not return empty but accomplishes everything it is sent to do. God’s Word is the final authority. If He said it, He will make it good!31 Decrees of Blessing for Your Life will inspire you with a daily devotion for every day of the month that will turn your attention to the heart of God and His wonderful intentions for your life. Each devotion is followed by ten powerful decrees—faith-filled words of biblical truth for you to be blessed with love, fruitfulness, friends, wisdom, hope, victory, family, glory, endurance, God’s presence, gladness, and more. Finally, there is a daily activation for you in response to each devotion and decree to seal God’s Word in your heart and life. Experience multiplication of blessings for your life and watch transformation take place as you daily give Jesus your focus and decree His Word. <br><br> Autorid: Patricia King <br>

'This is Irish history seen anew, from below, bristling with practical lessons for working-class struggle today' - Eamonn McCann The 32 counties of Ireland were divided through imperial terror and gerrymandering. Partition was borne from a Tory strategy to defend the British Empire and has spawned a carnival of reaction in Irish politics ever since. Over the last 100 years, conservative forces have dominated both states offering religious identity as a diversion from economic failures and inequality. Through a sharp analysis of the history of partition, Kieran Allen rejects the view that the 'two cultures' of Catholic and Protestant communities lock people into permanent antagonism. Instead, the sectarian states have kept its citizens divided through political and economic measures like austerity, competition for reduced services and low wages. Overturning conventional narratives, 32 Counties evokes the tradition of James Connolly and calls for an Irish unity movement from below to unite the North and the Republic into a secular, socialist and united Ireland. <br><br> Autorid: Kieran Allen <br>

Is being an artist a radical form of entrepreneurship or a vocational calling like the priesthood? Is it an extension of philosophy or an offshoot of entertainment? In three richly interlinked but distinct 'acts' - Politics, Kinship and Craft - Sarah Thornton compares and contrasts answers to the simple but profound question: what is an artist? 33 Artists in 3 Acts draws on hundreds of personal encounters with the world's most important artists, to ask what it means to be making artworks in different parts of the world today. With Thornton as expert guide and trusted insider, we have unprecedented access to the lives of the artists, from late-night Skype chats with Ai Weiwei to taxi rides with Maurizio Cattelan on the way to and from the show that announces his death. We join Thornton as she rummages through artists' studios, homes and solo shows, inquiring about everything from their bank accounts to their bedrooms. The result is a series of cinematic experiences, which juxtapose artists in thought-provoking ways, and build up narratives that end with epiphanies. 33 Artists in 3 Acts is a generational touchstone, a powerful triptych and gripping anti-monograph about truth, integrity, credibility and recognition. Essential reading for anyone interested in contemporary art, this masterful act of storytelling will also delight any reader seeking to understand creative lives. <br><br> Autorid: Sarah Thornton <br>

Edukaks seenekorjamiseks on võrdselt tähtsad nii koht kui ka aeg. Kui lähete metsa pärast paarinädalast põuda, ega te siis eriti seeni ei saa. Kuivanud metsas on hea võtta osoonivanne, aga korjata pole suurt midagi. Parim aeg metsa minekuks algab siiski augusti keskpaigast või septembri algusest, kui põud on raugenud, nädalake on vihma valanud ja ilmad on läinud veidi jahedamaks. Seenelkäik võiks olla ka nauditav, mets võiks olla ilus ja kergesti läbitav ning putukad ei tohiks valmistada piina. Tean suurepäraseid seenekohti, kust tulete igal viiendal korral tagasi fantastilise saagiga. Need kohad pole alati tippsaladus, autode parkimisjäljed on ju metsaservas näha! Olen andnud siin raamatus mõned täpsed vihjed, aga päevad pole vennad. <br><br> Autorid: Paul Seeneorg <br>

A facsimile of a sketchbook by the Dutch artist and illustrator Peter Vos along with a volume of introductory essays. From time immemorial, people have been fascinated by birds and have created images of their winged companions. The artist Peter Vos (1935–2010) was one of them. He kept bird diaries in which he noted down the birds he came across and captured them in pen and ink and watercolor. He took pleasure in entrusting all elements of a bird to paper—their characteristics, but mostly their characters. Hunched down or in full stretch, in the water and on land, on their behinds, foreshortened or in three-quarter view, preening their plumage and their wings poised for flight: Peter Vos often depicted his birds several times on one sheet so that you really get to know them. Vos set himself a task: fill an empty book with 333 birds drawn as beautifully as possible. He completed it over eighteen months, from June 1980 to December 1981. He began by going to zoos to sketch the birds. Days later he worked out the sketches in his book, resulting in remarkable drawings that serve as records of his encounters with individual birds. We should view the project as an expression of curiosity for his companions. He loved the winged friends he presents to us in all their glory and individualities—true to nature and with an understanding of their characters, honestly, as befits friends. <br><br> Autorid: Peter Vos, Jan Piet Filedt Kok, Ger Luijten, Siegfried Woldhek <br>

The 36 Deadly Bubishi Points explains the pressure point techniques found in the Bubishi, the ancient "Bible of Karate," and how recognizing them allows you to defend yourself against such attacks. This book closely examines these vital points and the science behind them, and the author fills a gap in general understanding of how the 36 vital points found in the Bubishi can be targeted using pressure point fighting techniques. While much has been written about the vital points and their medicinal importance, thanks to the popularity of practices such as acupuncture, martial research on the subject has been lacking. Cardwell discusses the vital points from the perspective of an experienced martial artistincluding how the body's vital points are related to the 8 extraordinary vessels and 12 meridians which circulate energy throughout the body. Through detailed step-by-step instructions and over 96 photographs and illustrations, The 36 Deadly Bubishi Points shows how this knowledge can be employed in self-defense. <br><br> Autorid: Rand Cardwell, Patrick McCarthy <br>

An explosive, devastating debut poetry book from the winner of the Dylan Thomas Prize 36 Ways of Writing a Vietnamese Poem is an urgent, unsettling reckoning with identity - and the violence of identity. For Le, a Vietnamese refugee in the West, this means the assumed violence of racism, oppression and historical trauma. But it also means the violence of that assumption. Of being always assumed to be outside one's home, country, culture or language. And the complex violence - for the diasporic writer who wants to address any of this - of language itself. Making use of multiple tones, moods, masks and camouflages, Le's poetic debut moves with unpredictable and destabilizing energy between the personal and political. As self-indicting as it is scathing, hilarious as it is desperately moving, this is a singular, breakthrough book. <br><br> Autorid: Nam Le <br>
