Written by 'expert patient' Iida, who has used the principles of plant-based wholefoods with no added sweeteners, fats or oils to regain her own health, this is a beautifully illustrated, full-colour cookbook that explicitly follows the approach of the Paddison Program for Rheumatoid Arthritis and also provides help with other autoimmune conditions. It shows how anyone eating according to those principles can do so simply, sustainably and enjoyably--and inclusively so that family and friends can eat the same way whether they have health issues or not. Foreword by Clint Paddison, founder of the Paddison Program Recipes graded for their level of healing, with the gentlest labeled 'Humble & Healing' The principles of cooking without added oil ('steam frying' etc) 200 superb colour photographs
Lacrimosa is Latin for 'weeping', or 'sorrow'. This is what this book is all about. Nothing is sugar-coated, and you might find this book to be both brutal and raw. This is what healing looks like.Despite the many angry words and deep eloquence of what may feel like hatred, I have long forgiven the people that have wronged me, and I have never held any grudges against them. The only grudges I have sadly always harboured unquestionably, are the ones I held against my own flesh and bones. This book is my way of opening the doors to forgiving myself for having harboured such feelings. There is no such thing as light without darkness. The question is not if, but when our personal darkness will eventually surface. And when it does, how will you cope? Will you glue yourself to a piece of wood drifting aimlessly in an ocean which is unafraid of swallowing you? Some things just need the right amount of patience. Just like you would wait for your coffee to fill your mug before you lift it, you should practise patience as you walk the shores of healing. Allow the ache to unravel. Allow it to take a seat next to you while you wait for your coffee to run. Treat healing like a daily habit and you will never have to succumb to the heavy mountains of untreated wounds weighing down on your shoulders. Please do not wait to live your life until the icy shivers of death come knocking at your door. Live unapologetically. Rid yourself of the shame that comes with shaping your own future. Do not allow yourself to sink so far into the abyss that one day you'll look back with regret spilling from your fingers, no longer able to do what you are capable of doing today. You are deeply loved and you are as beautiful as sunrise, and that electrifying moment when the moon appears full on a clear summer night.You are worthy of rising, just like the sun. Rise, even when it rains. Rise, even when nothing and nobody else rises with you. Rise.Take a deep breath before turning these pages. Inhale and let go when you are ready.I think it is a huge milestone for any poet to find ways into writing about what truly lingers inside their bones. While I admit that I have tried to write about honey and butterflies many of the times when I thought about writing, it did not always resonate as deeply as the poetry I have finally been able to write down onto these pages today.Tales of Lacrimosa is the door to letting go of all that's been weighing at my soul ever since I stepped foot onto this physical plane of existence, and your hands are now the key. This is my book of healing, but it is also much more than that. It is a book of yearning, a book of madness, and the embrace of the dark night of the soul.Dip your toes inside. Know that it is safe. Realise that you are not alone, and know that everything you feel is valid. There is deep reasoning behind every word we speak and every action we take.
Poet, writer, and Instagram sensation Nikita Gill returns with a collection of fairytales poetically retold for a new generation of women. Traditional fairytales are rife with cliches and gender stereotypes: beautiful, silent princesses; ugly, jealous, and bitter villainesses; girls who need rescuing; and men who take all the glory. But in this rousing new prose and poetry collection, Nikita Gill gives Once Upon a Time a much-needed modern makeover. Through her gorgeous reimagining of fairytale classics and spellbinding original tales, she dismantles the old-fashioned tropes that have been ingrained in our minds. In this book, gone are the docile women and male saviors. Instead, lines blur between heroes and villains. You will meet fearless princesses, a new kind of wolf lurking in the concrete jungle, and an independent Gretel who can bring down monsters on her own. Complete with beautifully hand-drawn illustrations by Gill herself, Fierce Fairytales is an empowering collection of poems and stories for a new generation.
In the twenty-first century, American culture is experiencing a profound shift toward pluralism and secularization. In Fairy Tales in Contemporary American Culture: How We Hate to Love Them, Kate Koppy argues that the increasing popularity and presence of fairy tales within American culture is both indicative of and contributing to this shift. By analyzing contemporary fairy tale texts as both new versions in a particular tale type and as wholly new fairy-tale pastiches, Koppy shows that fairy tales have become a key part of American secular scripture, a corpus of shared stories that work to maintain a sense of community among diverse audiences in the United States, as much as biblical scripture and associated texts used to.
