Have you ever heard a song or read a poem and thought, “I wonder what made the artist sing/write these words? What’s the story behind that song? What does the message actually mean? What memory is the artist reflecting on?” Maybe you read a metaphoric poem written by a legendary poet and wondered what it really meant. Not the interpretations made by many over the years. With Forbidden Truth, poet and author Deborah Almaroof gives you her complete vision. She allows you to embark on the mental capacity at the time of each work’s creation and gives insight into what each poem means. Deborah Almaroof began writing at a young age, love songs and short stories. At the age of 20, as a sophomore at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, five hours away from her hometown; she found herself alone and unhappy being so far away from her family. She searched for a coping mechanism and one night began to write. It was then that she tapped into a gift she never knew she had; the ability to construct poetry. To her surprise what she initially thought nothing of turned into endless nights up, turning her deepest thoughts into amazing art. At the age of 21, she vowed that at the age of 25 she would release her first poetry book. Here she gives you a collection of her poems and personal quotes, teamed up with her life experiences that inspired them. It has been said that the richest place on earth is a graveyard. Many are buried with unshared riches, gifts, ideas and talents. With this project the author proclaims that no measurement of success comes from the external; critique nor praise compares to the magnitude of success inside these pages. To achieve this goal, first time author and poet Deborah Almaroof says this is her success. Reaching a goal in a world where many people never witness their biggest dreams transform into a reality. Forbidden Truth is truly one to sink your teeth into!

“Fascinating. Doidge’s book is a remarkable and hopeful portrait of the endless adaptability of the human brain.” —Oliver Sacks
The discovery that our thoughts can change the structure and function of our brains—even into old age—is the most important breakthrough in neuroscience in four centuries. In this revolutionary look at the brain, bestselling author, psychiatrist, and psychoanalyst Norman Doidge, M.D., introduces both the brilliant scientists championing this new science of neuroplasticity and the astonishing progress of the people whose lives they’ve transformed. Introducing principles we can all use as well as a riveting collection of case histories—stroke patients cured, a woman with half a brain that rewired itself to work as a whole, learning and emotional disorders overcome, IQs raised, and aging brains rejuvenated—The Brain That Changes Itself has “implications for all human beings, not to mention human culture, human learning and human history” (The New York Times).
“Readers will want to read entire sections aloud and pass the book on to someone who can benefit from it….Links scientific experimentation with personal triumph in a way that inspires awe.” —The Washington Post
• Is there a memory that torments you, or an irrational fear you can’t shake?
• Do you sometimes become unreasonably angry or upset and find it hard to calm down?
• Do you ever wonder why you can’t stop behaving the way you do, no matter how hard you try?
• Are you and your child (or parent, partner, or boss) locked in a seemingly inevitable pattern of conflict?
What if you could escape traps like these and live a fuller, richer, happier life? This isn’t mere speculation but the result of twenty-five years of careful hands-on clinical work by Daniel J. Siegel, M.D. A Harvard-trained physician, Dr. Siegel is one of the revolutionary global innovators in the integration of brain science into the practice of psychotherapy. Using case histories from his practice, he shows you how to focus your attention on the internal world of the mind in a way that will literally change the wiring and architecture of your brain.
An audiobook as inspiring as it is informative, as practical as it is profound, Mindsight offers exciting new proof that we aren’t hardwired to behave in certain ways but instead have the ability to harness the power of our minds to resculpt the neural pathways of our brains in ways that will be life-transforming.

If Alcoholics Anonymous is so effective, why do fourteen million Americans struggle with alcoholism? Why does the rate of relapse among AA members hover around 70 percent? Can it be that the original twelve-step program — and such offspring as Al-Anon and Narcotics Anonymous — represents not a solution but merely a different facet of the problem?
In this first-person account of fourteen years as a drunk, thirty-three-year-old Marianne Gilliam concludes that AA is a fundamentally flawed program. Refusing to accept the idea that alcoholism is a “disease”, that she and all other drunks are “powerless”, and that twelve-step meetings are the answer, she found a different path to sobriety in a meaningful, love-based approach to life founded on innate self-worth.
Admitting that AA may work for some, Gilliam argues from personal experience that the twelve-step culture of victims and codependents actually perpetuates addiction by denying the individual’s capacity for responsible behavior or; at best, replacing dependence on alcohol and drugs with an equally powerful dependence on the program itself While this may stop members from drinking, it does nothing to cure the underlying psychological problems that cause self-destructive behavior. Instead, she offers guidance based on her own search for sobriety, addressing each key issue methodically but sympathetically and pointing the way toward true recovery, independence, and lasting freedom from addictions of all kinds.
