Unbound: A Woman's Guide To Power by Urbaniak, Kasia

$35.00 AUD

Category: MOTIVATION

Stop being a servant of the life you're living and become a creator of the world you want. Electrifying lessons in power, influence and persuasion to equalise women in an unequal world.Why do so many women feel they're too much yet not enough? How can you feel 'good and mad' yet reluctant to speak up in a meeting or difficult conversation? What causes women to freeze at critical moments?Kasia Urbaniak spent 17 years studying to become a Taoist nun. To foot the bill for her studies, she worked as a high-paid (and extremely successful) dominatrix in dungeons around New York City. What she learned in these two wildly different settings has turned into her life's work. UNBOUND brings Urbaniak's unique teachings for women on speaking power, persuading others and navigating conflict to a mainstream audience for the first time. Part polemic, part practical, it opens women's eyes to why they frequently find it so difficult - personally, professionally and socially - to raise their voices, why they freeze in challenging circumstances and what they can do to change this. Too often women find themselves in the role of 'sub' when they need to be more 'dom' - in short they are paralysed by their Good Girl Syndrome and a deep-seated need to please everyone and anyone except themselves.UNBOUND offers precise, practical instruction in how to stand in your power, find your voice and use it well. Part manual, part manifesto, it will help you cut through layers of self-censoring and self-doubt to go after what you truly want, and live your wildest, best and most satisfying life. ...Show more

If we dare to dream of a more loving country - kinder, more compassionate, more cooperative, more respectful, more i nclusive, more egalitarian, more harmonious, less cynical - there's only one way to start turning that dream into a reality: each of us must live as if this is already that country.

Urging us not to let those questions go, and pointing to our inspiring displays of kindness and consideration, our personal sacrifices for the common good and our heightened appreciation of the value of local neighbourhoods and communities, he asks in turn: 'Could we become renowned as a loving country, rather than simply a "lucky" one?'

Impossible Truths : Amazing Evidence of Extraterrestrial Contact by Erich Von Däniken

$20.00 AUD

$32.99 (39% off)

Category: SECONDHAND BOOKS

Impossible Truths showcases the classic, provocative von Däniken theories for a new generation. For more than four decades, Erich von Däniken has been elaborating his astounding thesis that the inhabitants of other planets have kept in contact with humanity since the earliest times and that they are sti ll communicating with us today. In this book he presents new eyewitness proof of extraterrestrial activity, as well as evidence from expert informants that has remained secret until now. He also highlights the findings of new research that he has been able to undertake as previously inaccessible areas have opened up, such as the jungle city of "Buritaca 200" (Ciudad Perdida) in Colombia. It was once thought that only the ancient Nazca people of Peru scraped gigantic images in the ground. Now, thanks to Erich von Däniken, we know that this is a phenomenon seen all over the world, from Jordan and Saudi Arabia to Chile and Mexico: immense circles and wheels, mile-wide images that look like dragons or supernatural beings with rays extending from their heads. "When will people finally grasp the global basis of the Nazca phenomenon?" asks von Däniken. He believes these ancient geoglyphs were created as messages to the gods, to signal to the extraterrestrial beings that people had seen with their own eyes moving about the sky. More than 150 full-colour photographs substantiate von Däniken's theories and let the reader assess for themselves the stunning visual evidence. These spectacular findings will teach us how to be truly amazed again. ...Show more
