PAPERBACK

Eluding Sylvia, Chasing Poe

A choose-your-own-adventure prose, poetry and imagery journey from inside the mind of a bipolar-disordered human. One critic said it was like Alice in Wonderland on Lithium; psychedelic yet ordinary.

The book’s written content is a collection of lyrical poems, microstories and prose with the addition of illustrations, photographs and insights in a ‘choose your own adventure’ concept. Each adventure contains a different facet of the symptoms of the Bipolar illness using role play with different mood characters. With the use of this method, it has given the power back to the reader to choose their mood. This displays the relentless lack of choice within the sufferer of the illness.

The author/artist was once a ‘New Poet’ (Friendly Street Poets, 2010) and contributor to ‘Mad, Sad Words’ (Joseph Dunn, 2006).

The Little Things: A Breast Cancer Memoir

 

It’s ‘the little things’ that matter.

No one knows that more than Lindsey Kennedy. After being diagnosed with breast cancer, she couldn’t find the book she needed to read, so she wrote one.

This is Lindsey’s ultimately uplifting story filled with humour when faced with unthinkable health crises. When many would have found only storm clouds, she found silver linings. Along the way, she was supported by the love of family, friends and strangers.

Lindsey’s determination to help others led to her being one of the faces of a national breast cancer awareness campaign, and The Little Things offers insight for anyone facing the dreaded diagnosis. It’s practical, comforting and empowering.

About the Author

Lindsey Kennedy lives in Victoria, Australia with her husband and two children. She is a public speaker, a BreastScreen Victoria ambassador, civil celebrant, teacher and a breast cancer survivor.

PAPERBACK

Highway To Well

This is a story about my personal journey through mental illness. I suffered from severe depression from 2012 until 2015. At one stage my illness became so acute that I became psychotic. Due to my illness, I lost three years of my life. I am sharing my story in the hope that it will not only give encouragement to others who are suffering from the same debilitating illness, but I also hope to touch the lives of the carers, friends, and families of those afflicted with such an insidious, indiscriminate disease.

Aligning to Aliveness

Robert Beno grew from humble beginnings to become a successful attorney. While he had an avid interest in things of a spiritual or metaphysical nature since childhood, as a young adult he entered a deep ‘soul sadness’ or ‘dark night of the soul’ that lasted over a decade; during this time he endured many successive, intense challenges. In facing his deepest fears and darkest wounds that tested the very limits of the human condition, a process of awakening unfolded, which served to bring about a deeper joy through the simple act of Being and with that joy has come inner peace.

This book is testimony to the indomitable and transcendent power of the human spirit to reconnect with Source and return home in the deepest sense. Through simple guidance and intrinsic wisdom Robert pierces the veils of illusion that appear to hold us captive to mind-based patterns and profoundly reaches into the very heart of life itself, sharing insights to inspire and empower humanity through its collective heart awakening as we each evolve into higher levels of consciousness and deeper states of love and loving kindness.

About the Author

Robert Beno has a deep love and passion for sharing insights that may serve to empower and awaken the heart of humanity to its true nature, to its innate essence as the very river of consciousness that is life itself.

Robert presently lives in Sydney, Australia

Self Science 

A Study of You by You

AT THE PRINTER – COMING SOON 

One of the world’s leading performance scientists presents in simple terms some strategies to help you enhance your everyday life.

Dr Craig Duncan provides the basic concepts, the regimen and the vision for implementing the philosophy of “self-science”, a way of living that focuses on the importance of self-exploration and self-awareness as a pathway to a better life.

Using the knowledge gained from working alongside elite athletes in professional sport, and also from his personal experience, Dr Duncan has developed a system to help anyone who wants to reach their full potential.

This is about you becoming involved in the management of your life, rather than being a spectator.
