Unlock boundless potential and spiritual guidance by connecting with Spirit and awakening your Soul's potential.

It's a power that has the potential to transform your life, guiding you to live with purpose, clarity, and a deep connection to the Spirit that surrounds and flows through us. In this groundbreaking book, renowned psychic medium and spiritual teacher Sean Collyns demystifies mediumship for the modern era, empowering readers to strengthen their spiritual connection and receive guidance from the other side. Sean will reveal how to: · Create an energetic environment in which your spiritual abilities can thrive · Become receptive to messages from Spirit-whether from loved ones who have passed, past life memories, or your own higher guidance · Harness your soul's power to live a joyful, fulfilling life and manifest your heart's desires Whether you're a seasoned spiritual seeker or are curious about beginning your journey, Your Soul is the Source of Your Power is your key to recognizing your divine birthright and opening up a life of infinite possibility.

Your Soul Is the Source of Your Power

The instant Sunday Times bestseller, updated with a new introduction 'Few books are as urgent as Shon Faye's debut ... Faye has hope for the future - and maybe so should we' Independent 'Unsparing, important and weighty ... a vitally needed antidote' Observer 'A moving and impressively comprehensive overview of trans life' Vogue Trans people in Britain today have become a culture war 'issue'. Despite making up less than one per cent of the country's population, they are the subjects of a toxic and increasingly polarized 'debate' which generates reliable controversy for newspapers and talk shows. This media frenzy conceals a simple fact: that we are having the wrong conversation, a conversation in which trans people themselves are reduced to a talking point and denied a meaningful voice. In this powerful new book, Shon Faye reclaims the idea of the 'transgender issue' to uncover the reality of what it means to be trans in a transphobic society. In doing so, she provides a compelling, wide-ranging analysis of trans lives from youth to old age, exploring work, family, housing, healthcare, the prison system and trans participation in the LGBTQ+ and feminist communities, in contemporary Britain and beyond. The Transgender Issue is a landmark work that signals the beginning of a new, healthier conversation about trans life. It is a manifesto for change, and a call for justice and solidarity between all marginalized people and minorities. Trans liberation, as Faye sees it, goes to the root of what our society is and what it could be; it offers the possibility of a more just, free and joyful world for all of us. 'Fundamentally not a culture-war book. It operates outside the narrow coverage of trans people in the mainstream, and lays bare the inarguable facts' New Statesman 'Monumental and utterly convincing - crystal clear in its understanding of how the world should be' Judith Butler

The Transgender Issue

The go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming accent and linguistic bias in the workplace. The way you speak can determine everything from whether you get hired or promoted, to whether people listen to you in meetings. It can affect the strength of your business relationships and reputation, but also whether people think they can trust you. We hear accents loud and clear, yet often they are quietly derailing our efforts to create inclusive work environments where every voice is heard. Linguistic discrimination is still unrecognized in the great majority of Diversity, Equity &amp; Inclusion (DEI) circles, yet it underpins every type of discrimination in the workplace from race and age to gender, neurodiversity and even sexuality. It is the hidden bias that is derailing even the best DEI efforts. Accent Matters is the go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming linguistic bias in the workplace. Through fascinating stories and examples of accent bias from all over the world, you'll find out how you've been conditioned to prefer certain accents over others, and how those preferences interfere with the way you listen to and interact with those around you. For those who have accents, but especially for those who think they don't, this book will be an eye-opening journey into a fundamental bias that affects every aspect of our lives, both professionally and personally.

The TLS Guide to Good Writing

Das modernistische Diktum Less is More hat auch heute nichts von seiner Attraktivität verloren, auch wenn es immer mehr mit der kapitalistischen Forderung More for Less zu verschwimmen scheint. Die Kritik an der Verschwendung finanzieller, ökologischer und sozialer Ressourcen ist so zum moralischen Paradigma der Schuld und der »zynischen Feier des Ethos der Austerität« geworden, die insbesondere jenen, die ohnehin wenig haben, Sparsamkeit und Verzicht verordnet. 
In seinem brillanten Essay kritisiert Architekt und Theoretiker Pier Vittorio Aureli Ästhetisierungen der Askese, die »Austerity-Chic« zu Lifestyle, Calvin-Klein-Stores zu ­ Klöstern der Moderne, Steve Jobs zum ­ Inbegriff mönchischen Lebens und Minimalismus zum ­ neuesten Konsum-Trend fetischisieren.

Aureli fordert uns auf, Weniger weder unter dem Paradigma von Verlust und Schulden noch unter dem Anspruch von Wachstum und Steigerung zu betrachten und stattdessen entlang des Mottos Weniger ist genug alternative und kritische, kollektive und soziale Wendungen der Erfüllung jenseits von Besitz und Produktivität zu erforschen.

Career Comedown

A guidebook to the institutional transformation of design theory and practice by restoring the long-excluded cultures of Indigenous, Black, and People of Color communities. From the excesses of world expositions to myths of better living through technology, modernist design, in its European-based guises, has excluded and oppressed the very people whose lands and lives it reshaped. Decolonizing Design first asks how modernist design has encompassed and advanced the harmful project of colonization—then shows how design might address these harms by recentering its theory and practice in global Indigenous cultures and histories. A leading figure in the movement to decolonize design, Dori Tunstall uses hard-hitting real-life examples and case studies drawn from over fifteen years of working to transform institutions to better reflect the lived experiences of Indigenous, Black, and People of Color communities. Her book is at once enlightening, inspiring, and practical, interweaving her lived experiences with extensive research to show what decolonizing design means, how it heals, and how to practice it in our institutions today. For leaders and practitioners in design institutions and communities, Tunstall’s work demonstrates how we can transform the way we imagine and remake the world, replacing pain and repression with equity, inclusion, and diversity—in short, she shows us how to realize the infinite possibilities that decolonized design represents.

Belonging at Work

A short, blistering gut punch of a novel, Jackson Alone is at turns satirical and deadpan, angry and tender - a frank exploration of identity, race, and queerness in contemporary Japan. Nobody at the corporate offices of Athletius Japan knows much about the massage therapist, Jackson, but rumours abound. He used to work as a model. He likes to party. He's mixed race: half-Japanese, half-somewhere-in-Africa-n. He might be gay. Fuelling the gossip is the sudden appearance of a violent, pornographic video featuring a man who looks like a lot like Jackson. When Jackson serendipitously meets three other queer mixed-race guys, he learns he's not the only one being targeted. Together they concoct a plan: find out who's responsible and, in the meantime, exploit the fact that nobody can seem to tell them apart to trick people who've wronged them. From an Akutagawa prize winning author, Jackson Alone asks complex questions about how we see ourselves and how we see others, as well as what it really means to get revenge.
