Dear Goddess,Whatever your unique journey, the time has come to embrace yourself! Like the punani, none of us is born quite exactly the same, each with our own preferences, needs, and ways of expression, and with that it is an honor to walk on this Earth with one, though the burdens at times do seem numerous. I have found time and again that those of us with punanis, wombs, womb spaces, (I will call us "womb bearers") tend to be filled with misinformation and depressing untruths about our own bodies! We are taught what we have is shameful and that being too inquisitive is useless and devilish and sluttish. With this workbook, I hope you will reach forth and find out just who you are, and how exciting that is. Invite one of the most powerful and inspiring parts of our physical body--the womb! Reach deep and start making connections throughout your life to gain more answers...this workbook is only a beginning tool for a larger journey.As more people reclaim the wise ancient ways and mix them with the innovative and sustainable modern ones, the future on Earth becomes a safer and more peaceful place to be. Your journey is for you, but it is also for your descendents and all of the lives you touch along the way.Use this workbook however you like--worked from front to back, perused through and used at leisure, or perhaps open at random and work in that way. Whatever you choose, allow this tool to work with you as you grow in your self love and knowledge.Peace on your path,Tahtahme Nehandas XeroThe Sacred [email protected]

"A dazzling debut novel about resilience, courage, home and family."--Rebecca Stead, Newbery Award-winning author of When You Reach Me SoHo, 1981. Twelve-year-old Olympia is an artist--and in her neighborhood, that's normal. Her dad and his business partner Apollo bring antique paintings back to life, while her mother makes intricate sculptures in a corner of their loft, leaving Ollie to roam the streets of New York with her best friends Richard and Alex, drawing everything that catches her eye. Then everything falls apart. Ollie's dad disappears in the middle of the night, leaving her only a cryptic note and instructions to destroy it. Her mom has gone to bed, and she's not getting up. Apollo is hiding something, Alex is acting strange, and Richard has questions about the mysterious stranger he saw outside. And someone keeps calling, looking for a missing piece of art. . . Olympia knows her dad is the key--but first, she has to find him, and time is running out.

Features four bonus videos! Watch Rick discuss the events that have shaped his life; step inside his recording studio to hear him discuss his music, his acting career, coming to America, and his love of dogs; and watch Rick's “What’s Victoria’s Secret?” music video and his unplugged version of “I Get Excited.” In a searingly candid memoir which he authored himself, Grammy Award-winning pop icon Rick Springfield pulls back the curtain on his image as a bright, shiny, happy performer to share the startling story of his rise and fall and rise in music, film, and television and his lifelong battle with depression. In the 1980s, singer-songwriter and actor Rick Springfield seemed to have it all: a megahit single in “Jessie’s Girl,” sold-out concert tours, follow-up hits that sold more than 17 million albums and became the pop soundtrack for an entire generation, and 12 million daily viewers who avidly tuned in to General Hospital to swoon over his portrayal of the handsome Dr. Noah Drake. Yet lurking behind his success as a pop star and soap opera heartthrob and his unstoppable drive was a moody, somber, and dark soul, one filled with depression and insecurity. In Late, Late at Night, the memoir his millions of fans have been waiting for, Rick takes readers inside the highs and lows of his extraordinary life. By turns winningly funny and heartbreakingly sad, every page resonates with Rick’s witty, wry, self-deprecating, brutally honest voice. On one level, he reveals the inside story of his ride to the top of the entertainment world. On a second, deeper level, he recounts with unsparing candor the forces that have driven his life, including his longtime battle with depression and thoughts of suicide, the shattering death of his father, and his decision to drop out at the absolute peak of fame. Having finally found a more stable equilibrium, Rick’s story is ultimately a positive one, deeply informed by his passion for creative expression through his music, a deep love of his wife of twenty-six years and their two sons, and his life-long quest for spiritual peace.
