Arianna Huffington Knihy

Chceme-li něčeho docílit, je občas potřeba se na to vyspat! Nacházíme se uprostřed krize způsobené spánkovou deprivací, která má dalekosáhlé důsledky – pro naše zdraví, pracovní výkon, vztahy a také pro naši spokojenost. Spoluzakladatelka a šéfredaktorka zpravodajského webu The Huffington Post ve své nové knize směle prohlašuje, že to, co skutečně potřebujeme, je spánková revoluce. Získat zpět kontrolu nad svými životy můžeme pouze tak, že obnovíme svůj vztah ke spánku. V dnešním zrychleném, vždy připojeném, neustále vystresovaném a spánkově deprivovaném světě je naše potřeba kvalitně prospané noci důležitější – a současně nepolapitelnější – než kdykoli předtím. Spánková revoluce bije na poplach kvůli celosvětové spánkové krizi a zároveň nabízí podrobný plán, jak dosáhnout velkého spánkového procitnutí, které nám pomůže transformovat naše životy, společenství i celý svět.

Ariannin poplašný signál měl podobu zlomené lícní kosti a ošklivého šrámu nad okem v důsledku náhlého zhroucení. Zážitek vedl k prozření a k otázce: jsou moc a peníze opravdovým úspěchem? Honba za nimi nás vede k vyhoření a k epidemii chorob souvisejících se stresem. Trpí tím naše vztahy, rodinný život a paradoxně také naše pracovní kariéra. Ztrácíme spojení s tím, na čem opravdu záleží. Naše současná definice úspěchu nás doslova zabíjí, a proto je třeba ji změnit. Autorka, proslulá mediální podnikatelka a zakladatelka vlivných internetových novin Huffington Post, líčí vlastní zážitky a zkušenosti a radí, jak se vyhnout potížím, k nimž současný životní styl vede. Čerpá konkrétní podněty z nejnovějších výzkumů a vědeckých zjištění v oboru psychologie, sportu, spánku a fyziologie a dokazuje, že cesta vede přes meditaci, bdělou pozornost, nesobecké dávání a schopnost odpoutat se od všudypřítomných technických vymožeností. Ukazuje nám cestu k revolučním změnám našeho myšlení, naší práce i života.

Every woman lives by a code, whether she realizes it or not. It informs how she treats others and herself, how much she expects of herself, and how far she is willing to go in order to find success. But is the code we're living by truly helping us create the lives of purpose and fulfillment we desire? Or are we sacrificing the deeper things for mere achievement?In this inspiring book, Sophia A. Nelson calls women to live out a powerful life code that will lead them to purposeful and successful lives. With the wisdom that comes from experience, Nelson reveals to women· the true meaning of "having it all"· how to take better care of their minds, bodies, and souls· how to achieve professional excellence without compromising their values· how to find lasting love and purpose in life beyond their accomplishments· how to navigate the sisterhood of women, to build collaboration rather than competition· how to heal from past hurts, rejection, and life's inevitable storms· and much moreThe Woman Code is a way of living, of navigating life's challenges, and of interacting positively with other women. It's a way of pursuing our dreams and our deepest desires. It reveals a universal and timeless set of principles of the mind, body, and spirit that help women balance the demands of work, home, family, and friendship. The Woman Code not only calls on women to practice purpose in their lives, it shows them how to do it with grace.

Relying solely on willpower to lose weight, improve relationships, or excel at work often leads to failure. The surrounding environment is too powerful and stressful to overcome through sheer determination. To thrive in today’s world, one must proactively shape their environment. This concept is explored by Benjamin Hardy, who draws on extensive research and personal experiences from a challenging upbringing. He outlines how individuals can transform their lives through impactful environmental changes, such as: * Creating “enriched environments” that challenge you and encourage personal investment. * Growing into your goals by establishing multiple layers of accountability. * Taking on a leadership role to enhance skill development and commitment, even if you feel unprepared. * Rotating your environments to break free from ruts by changing your physical surroundings regularly. By implementing simple strategies like removing elements that conflict with your values—such as junk food and negative influences—and introducing new tools like fasting or positive triggers, you can actively shape your surroundings. These approaches enable you to consciously evolve into the person you aspire to be.

Live the life you want, not the one you settle for. Helping individuals build healthy habits is crucial in today’s world.

The Sleep Revolution is a call to action to make sleep a priority and reclaim the night for the basic human need of rest. Millions of people use nighttime hours for activities other than sleep, prioritizing work or succumbing to an addiction to technology rather than investing those precious hours in sleep. In the United States and increasingly around the world, work culture regards sleep as an inefficient waste of time. However, getting enough sleep can be a matter of life or death. People who have deprived themselves of sleep have, in some cases, collapsed or even died. Others have suffered and ended up in the hospital due to dangerous levels of exhaustion. Even less extreme sleep deprivation has resulted in physical and mental damage. Throughout history, many different cultures have held a profound appreciation of sleep. The ancient Greeks and Egyptians would sleep in temples to have their dreams interpreted by priests.
