monde - des artisanes de lumière modernes, qui ont accepté de naître au cours de cette période historique. Pour être florissantes en cette nouvelle ère, nous devons cultiver l'expression authentique de notre essence. La lumière vous va si bien vous permettra de mieux entendre les appels de votre âme et d'éclairer le monde par votre présence. Rebecca Campbell a vécu son premier éveil à l'adolescence, mais faute de guide, elle a ignoré les appels de son âme et tamisé sa lumière afin de s'adapter. Puis, juste avant son trentième anniversaire, la vie qu'elle s'était si consciencieusement créée a commencé à s'effondrer. On aurait dit que tout s'éteignait autour d'elle, et elle n'a eu d'autre choix que de redécouvrir sa propre lumière. Dans ce livre, Rebecca raconte son parcours tout en proposant, à partir de messages qu'elle a canalisés de l'Univers, des outils pratiques qui vous aideront à vous raccorder à l'essence de votre être. Lorsque vous redécouvrirez ce que vous savez déjà sur le plan de l'âme, vous pourrez offrir au monde quelque chose d'uniqueLa comtesse Tolstoï

Par Jada Pinkett Smith. 2023
A gripping, at times painfully honest, and ultimately inspirational memoir from global superstar and creator of the Red Table Talk…
series Jada Pinkett Smith. Jada Pinkett Smith was living what many would view as a fairy-tale of Hollywood success. But appearances can be deceiving, and as she felt more and more separated from her sense of self, emotional turmoil took hold. Sparing no detail, Worthy chronicles her life—from a rebellious youth running the Baltimore streets as an observer and participant in the drug trade, to the deep bond she shared with Tupac Shakur from the moment they met, to her move to Los Angeles and the successful career she built on her own terms, to becoming the wife of superstar Will Smith and mother to Jaden, Willow and bonus-mom to Trey . A rollercoaster from the depths of suicidal depression to the heights of self-acceptance and spiritual healing, Worthy is a woman's journey to finding herself again. In a media driven landscape that crafts narratives for our celebrities, Smith shares herself in an intimate conversation with readers. She answers questions about her difficult childhood, her marriage, her parenting style, her career choices, and the intense scrutiny that followed "the slap." An impactful and rare memoir that engages and educates, Worthy shows why adhering to the status quo has never been the plan for Jada Pinkett Smith and why labels and stories crafted by others strip women of their authenticity. Worthy teaches us who Jada is, and how to embrace our most lovable qualities. Complete with thought-provoking writing prompts and meditations on how to discover who we really are and nourish our self-worthHe/she/they: How we talk about gender and why it matters

Go‑to expert on gender identity, Schuyler Bailar, offers an essential, urgent guide that changes the conversation about gender identity and…
how we talk about it. Anti-transgender legislation is being introduced in state governments around the United States in record-breaking numbers. Trans people are under attack in sports, healthcare, school curriculum, bathrooms, bars, and nearly every walk of life. He/She/They clearly and compassionately addresses fundamental topics, from why being transgender is not a choice and why pronouns are important, to more complex issues including how gender-affirming healthcare can be lifesaving and why allowing trans youth to play sports is good for all kids. With a relatable narrative rooted in facts, science, and history, Schuyler helps restore common sense and humanity to a discussion that continues to be divisively coopted and deceptively politicized. Schuyler Bailar didn't set out to be an activist, but his very public transition to the Harvard men's swim team put him in the spotlight. His choice to be open about his transition and share his experience has touched people around the world. His plain-spoken education has evolved into tireless advocacy for inclusion and collective liberation. In He/She/They , Schuyler uses storytelling and the art of conversation to give us the essential language and context of gender, meeting everyone where they are and paving the way for understanding, acceptance, and, most importantly: connection. He/She/They is more than a book on allyship; it also speaks to trans folks directly, answering the question, "does it get better?" with a resounding yes, celebrating radical trans joy. Myth-busting, affirming, compassionate, and fierce, He/She/They is a crucial, urgent—and lifesaving—book that forever changes the conversation about genderIgnite: Unlock the hidden potential within

"Parce que le bien-être devient une exigence sociale au même titre que la réussite professionnelle ou familiale ; parce que…
notre époque nous a éloignés de nous-mêmes jusqu'à nous rendre étrangers aux autres ; parce que, enfin et surtout, la recherche du bonheur est la finalité de toute existence, il est temps de réagir et de remettre de l'ordre dans nos vies privées d'essentiel. Pour Elsa Godart, philosophe et psychanalyste, cela passe par une rencontre avec soi, grâce au stoïcisme. Cette sagesse résume tout ce que l'existence a de joyeux, de merveilleux, mais aussi de tragique, ou même de pathologique. Alternative concrète au malaise contemporain, cette philosophie permet d'agir sur nos vies et de trouver la sérénité et la paix intérieure. À travers des cas concrets, ce livre pose les bases d'une meilleure connaissance de soi, indispensable pour trouver l'équilibre, et reprendre le contrôle sur sa vie. Car nous pouvons tous faire le choix d'être heureux." -- 4e de couv
