    Wie Achtsamkeit die neue Spiritualität des Kapitalismus wurde
    Achtsamkeit ist derzeit in aller Munde. Für viele gehört sie schon längst zum Mainstream, einige bezeichnen sie sogar als "Revolution". Doch was, wenn Achtsamkeit gar nicht die Welt verändert? Ronald E. Purser wagt die Antithese: Achtsamkeit ist zu einer banalen Form von Spiritualität im Kapitalismus geworden - einer, die aktiv sozialen und politischen Wandel verhindert und stattdessen dem Neoliberalismus den Weg ebnet. Purser beleuchtet, wie Konzerne, Schulen, Regierungen und Militär sich Achtsamkeit als Mittel für soziale Kontrolle und Ruhigstellung angeeignet haben. Er hinterfragt das gängige Narrativ, nach dem Stress vor allem selbstgeschaffen und eigenständig lösbar sei und Achtsamkeit das Allheilmittel. Mit beißender Kritik rüttelt er an den Grundfesten, auf denen die Vermarktung der sogenannten Revolution basiert. Denn um das wahrhaft revolutionäre Potenzial von Achtsamkeit zu entdecken, müssen wir den Neoliberalismus erst überwinden.

    Leah on the Offbeat , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 426min
    Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli, read by star of Stranger Things, Shannon Purser. When it comes to drumming, Leah Burke is usually on beat - but real life isn't always so rhythmic. An anomaly in her friend group, she's the only child of a young, single mum, and her life is decidedly less privileged. And even though her mom knows she's bisexual, she hasn't mustered the courage to tell her friends - not even her openly gay BFF, Simon.  With some messy dynamics emerging in this once tight-knit group of friends, senior year suddenly gets even more complicated for Leah, as she realises she's falling not for the guy who's taking her to prom, but for the girl who's dating her best friend. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shannon Purser. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/pauk/001630/bk_pauk_001630_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Improving Male Sexuality, Fertility and Testosterone , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 177min
    Men - too tired to make it go at night (or anytime)? Feel beat up? Have no libido and no interest? Are you "sexhausted"?! You know you must have low testosterone, but the docs keep telling you you're wrong. Find out why and how to make it all better. Dr. Purser uses his 30 years of practice experience and huge knowledge base to engagingly detail how you (the patient or the physician) can properly figure out low testosterone, zero libido (sex drive), and low sperm count, then how to properly (according to research and the medical literature) treat both plus get your libido running on high again (like when you were 25 and healthy). You'll quickly see why he's always voted as the most popular speaker at the many conferences at which he speaks each year! He gives the perspective of someone who's done years of endocrinology research, written tons of books on all of this, and been involved in three decades of practice. As a patient you know you want more natural options considered first (something most doctors don't seem to have a clue about), and Dr. Purser details those options (and exactly how to discover what you're low in) and references the literature as to why these must be looked at. His info is up to date (even cutting edge), easy to follow (even for physicians), and gets to the real root of the problem - you'll see why he also takes care of a lot of physicians. He leaves no stone unturned. Have your doctor (and you) follow his advice, and hopefully you'll get better quick, feel better, have better sex, and live longer with this prescribed approach. Listen and enjoy! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dan Purser, MD. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/038238/bk_acx0_038238_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Secularizing Buddhism
    A timely essay collection on the development and influence of secular expressions of Buddhism in the West and beyond. How do secular values impact Buddhism in the modern world? What versions of Buddhism are being transmitted to the West? Is it possible to know whether an interpretation of the Buddha s words is correct?In this new essay collection, opposing ideas that often define Buddhist communities secular versus religious, modern versus traditional, Western versus Eastern are unpacked and critically examined. These reflections by contemporary scholars and practitioners reveal the dynamic process of reinterpreting and reimagining Buddhism in secular contexts, from the mindfulness movement to Buddhist shrine displays in museums, to whether rebirth is an essential belief.This collection explores a wide range of modern understandings of Buddhism whether it is considered a religion, philosophy, or lifestyle choice and questions if secular Buddhism is purely a Western invention, offering a timely contribution to an ever-evolving discussion.Contributors include Bhikkhu Bodhi, Kate Crosby, Gil Fronsdal, Kathleen Gregory, Funie Hsu, Roger R. Jackson, Charles B. Jones, David L. McMahan, Richard K. Payne, Ron Purser, Sarah Shaw, Philippe Turenne, and Pamela D. Winfield.

    Durchstarten: Was Sie von Flugbegleitern über Führung, Teamwork und Kundenkontakt lernen können, Hörbuch, Digital, 75min
    In Unternehmen passiert tagtäglich genau das, was an Bord einer Passagiermaschine auf 10.000 Metern Flughöhe geschieht. Beides ist eine "eigene kleine Welt". Als ehemaliger Purser und Maître de Cabine bei der damaligen Swissair und heutiger Experte für Selbst- und Beziehungskompetenz in Führung, Zusammenarbeit und Kundenkontakt, kennt Autor Thomas Gelmi beide Seiten.In einem Flugzeug treffen Führungskräfte, Mitarbeiter und Kunden auf einem begrenzten Raum aufeinander und treten in Interaktion oder begegnen Konflikten. Wie sich diese Interaktion gestaltet, ist stark vom Können und Wirken der Kabinenbesatzung abhängig. Bestenfalls sieht diese Herausforderungen voraus und kann entsprechend deeskalieren. Im schlimmsten Fall sofort und ohne jegliche Hilfe von außen. Das erfordert höchste Selbst- und Beziehungskompetenz. Mit allen Konsequenzen. "Durchstarten" zeigt auf, was Führungskräfte vom Setting an Bord eines Flugzeuges lernen können.Denn wie sieht es in vielen Unternehmen heute aus? Situationen, Projekte und Prozesse werden immer unplanbarer, immer komplexer und immer unsicherer, der Druck auf den Einzelnen nimmt stetig zu und der echte zwischenmenschliche Dialog bleibt im Zuge der Digitalisierung oft auf der Strecke.Echter und authentischer Kontakt mit sich selbst und anderen ist heute und in Zukunft jedoch der elementare Erfolgsfaktor in Führung, Zusammenarbeit und Kundenkontakt und damit Differenzierungsmerkmal für viele Unternehmen. Welche Grundhaltungen und Verhaltensweisen sind für Unternehmen mit Hinblick auf Leadership, Teamwork und Kundenkontakt hilfreich oder sogar nötig, damit "der Flieger oben bleibt" und nicht zu einer Notlandung ansetzen muss? Finden Sie es heraus. deutsch. Thomas Gelmi. https://samples.audible.de/bk/edel/010036/bk_edel_010036_sample.mp3.
