A follow up to Pico Iyer's essay "The Joy of Quiet," The Art of Stillness considers the unexpected adventure of staying put and reveals a counterintuitive truth: The more ways we have to connect, the more we seem desperate to unplug. Why might a lifelong traveler like Pico Iyer, who has journeyed from Easter Island to Ethiopia, Cuba to Kathmandu, think that sitting quietly in a room might be the ultimate adventure? Because in our madly accelerating world, our lives are crowded, chaotic and noisy. There's never been a greater need to slow down, tune out and give ourselves permission to be still. In The Art of Stillness—a TED Books release—Iyer investigate the lives of people who have made a life seeking stillness: from Matthieu Ricard, a Frenchman with a PhD in molecular biology who left a promising scientific career to become a Tibetan monk, to revered singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen, who traded the pleasures of the senses for several years of living the near-silent life of meditation as a Zen monk. Iyer also draws on his own experiences as a travel writer to explore why advances in technology are making us more likely to retreat. He reflects that this is perhaps the reason why many people—even those with no religious commitment—seem to be turning to yoga, or meditation, or seeking silent retreats. These aren't New Age fads so much as ways to rediscover the wisdom of an earlier age. Growing trends like observing an “Internet Sabbath”—turning off online connections from Friday night to Monday morning—highlight how increasingly desperate many of us are to unplug and bring stillness into our lives. The Art of Stillness paints a picture of why so many—from Marcel Proust to Mahatma Gandhi to Emily Dickinson—have found richness in stillness. Ultimately, Iyer shows that, in this age of constant movement and connectedness, perhaps staying in one place is a more exciting prospect, and a greater necessity than ever before. In 2013, Pico Iyer gave a blockbuster TED Talk. This lyrical and inspiring book expands on a new idea, offering a way forward for all those feeling affected by the frenetic pace of our modern world.

A #1 New York Times Bestseller from Gabrielle Bernstein, called "A new role model" by The New York Times and featured on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday as a next-generation thought leader. In this motivational and super inspirational book, The Universe Has Your Back, New York Times best-selling author Gabrielle Bernstein teaches you how to transform your fear into faith in order to live a divinely guided life with confidence. ARE YOU READY TO WORK MIRACLES? Each story and lesson in the book guides you to release the blocks to what you most long for: happiness, security, clear purpose, and direction. These spiritual lessons will help you relinquish the need to control, so you can release anxiety and relax into a sense of certainty and freedom. You'll learn how to stop chasing life and truly live with a more positive mindset. Making the shift from fear to faith will give you a sense of power in a world that all too often makes us feel utterly powerless. When the tragedies of the world seem overwhelming, this book will help guide you back to your true power and peace. Follow the secrets revealed in this book to unleash the presence of your power and know always that the Universe has your back. Chapter Titles Include: · You Have a Hidden Power · You Are the Dreamer of Your Dream · You Are Always Being Guided. Even When It Doesn't Feel Like It · Your Vibes Speak Louder Than Your Words · The Universe Works Fast When You're Having Fun! · Obstacles Are Detours in the Right Direction · Certainty Clears the Path for What You Desire · The Universe Speaks in Mysterious Ways · Oneness Sets You Free · You Are the Universe · When You Think You're Surrendered, Surrender More · Be an Instrument for Love Gabrielle says, "My commitment with this book is to wake up as many people as possible to their connection to faith and joy. In that connection, we can be guided to our true purpose: to be love and spread love. These words can no longer be cute buzz phrases that we merely post on social media. Rather, these words must be our mission. The happiness, safety, and security we long for lies in our commitment to love." When you follow this path, you'll begin to feel a swell of energy move through you. You will find strength when you are down, synchronicity and support when you're lost, safety in the face of uncertainty, and joy when you are otherwise in pain. Your energetic shift clears space for more miracles on a global scale. Not only will you experience massive abundance - you'll help heal the world, too. "I love Gabby and her work.

The book features an array of diverse figures from 430 BCE to 2016, spanning 31 countries around the world, from Hatshepsut (the great female king who ruled Egypt peacefully for two decades) and Malala Yousafzi (the youngest person to win the Nobel Peace Prize) to Poly Styrene (legendary teenage punk and lead singer of X-Ray Spex) and Liv Arnesen and Ann Bancroft (polar explorers and the first women to cross Antarctica). An additional 250 names of international rad women are also included as a reference for readers to continue their own research. This progressive and visually arresting book is a compelling addition to women's history and belongs on the shelf of every school, library, and home. Together, these stories show the immense range of what women have done and can do. May we all have the courage to be rad!
