Today is the Day to Sparkle: Daily Affirmations for Those Who Need to Find Their Shine
Everyone goes through difficult times. It’s not always easy to find our sparkle when the darkness closes in. But, if we gently remind ourselves to shine regardless, we can bring light to our lives every single day. When we wake up in the morning, we must find positive words to say to ourselves–uplifiting messages for the little boy or girl inside us. We need to let ourselves know it’s okay to struggle. In fact, it’s part of this human experience. But, through our pain, we can fan the flame of hope with self-love and a fresh perspective. That small effort keeps us from becoming stuck in our struggle, victimizing ourselves and sabotaging our own growth and success. Using these daily affirmations is a step–one of many–to easily take every day. Whether during meditation or while stuck in morning traffic, we can read and repeat these affirmations in an effort to improve our attitude and shift our outlook on the day, our current situation or circumstances and our lives in general. Filling each day with a little sparkle helps fuel the light within. That helps us shine despite the effort of darkness to dim and douse us out. Of course, there is no magic cure for pain, regardless of the level of suffering. Patience through the process of healing is truly all we can ask of ourselves and others. But, nonetheless, there is magic inside each of us. These daily affirmations are simply the wand which employs it. Wave your wand daily, watch it sparkle and let yourself shine!

Serial Killer Quote of the Day: 365 Days of Serial Killers Uncut and In Their Own Words
This book will send chills up and down your spine. You’ve heard that before, but in this case, it’s true. Here, you will see for yourself how a serial killer’s mind works. You will hear them, in their own words, describe their despicable deeds. And you will learn how to kill someone without remorse, and even with a sense of fun and enjoyment. Over the past five years, johnny trevisani (no caps, by the way – all lowercase), has compiled the most extensive collection of serial killer quotes, certainly on the web, and probably on Earth. It offers a bizarre and disturbing glimpse into the warped minds of people who kill, and kill, and kill again. For the first time, trevisani’s opus, the Serial Killer Quote of the Day, is available as an ebook. It offers you a year’s worth of psychotic ramblings, lame justifications, and blow-by-blow descriptions of terrible crimes and the worst behavior of which humans are capable. You will be amazed, horrified, and fascinated. You may find the thoughts expressed uncomfortably similar to your own. You may dip into this book each morning, finding inspiration in nightmarish acts and deranged flights of fancy. You may stay up late at night, and read the whole thing in one sitting. The people in these pages are mass murderers, kidnappers, rapists and child molesters, mad bombers, necrophiliacs and cannibals. Some are totally insane, suffering from paranoid delusions. Some are all too normal, at least on the surface. They all destroyed countless lives – not just of the people they killed, but of the family and friends who lost their loved ones. These serial killers shoot people, stab them, strangle them, beat them to death, even blow them up. Sometimes they capture their victims and keep them alive for days, using them for sex, torturing them, toying with them the way a cat toys with a mouse. To these maniacs, murder is a compulsion, an addiction, an entertaining diversion, and sometimes just a means to an end. The monsters represented here include: – Jeffrey Dahmer – John Wayne Gacy – Charles Manson – The Son of Sam – Aileen Wuornos And more than 100 others. Check out these sample quotes: “I remember being told as a kid, you cut off the head and the body dies. The body is nothing after the head is cut off. Well, that’s not quite true. With a girl, there’s a lot left in the girl’s body without a head. Of course, the personality is gone.” – Ed Kemper —– “I know it ain’t normal for a person to go out and kill a girl just to have sex with her.” – Henry Lee Lucas —– “What’s one less person on the face of the Earth, anyway?” – Ted Bundy —– Each daily quote is accompanied by a mugshot, the number of people that killer is thought to have murdered, the years the killer was active, and the location. Each entry is also accompanied by a fact about the killer’s life, giving you a dark look into the events that shape minds like these. And every month, there is a “Serial Killer of the Month.” That killer is profiled more in-depth, presenting an intimate, up close and personal portrayal of someone you would never want to meet in real life. These serial killers will charm you. They will make you laugh. They will also terrify you. You will want to kill them yourself. You will wish that before they died, they had suffered more than they did. You will be outraged at the ones who are still alive, living it up in prison. Or worse, the ones who were let go, or escaped, and have since disappeared. And the ones who were never caught? They will make your skin crawl. If you are a person who enjoys true crime, as spoken by the people who did it, Serial Killer Quote of the Day is for you.

A Mind of Your Own: The Truth About Depression and How Women Can Heal Their Bodies to Reclaim Their Lives
Depression is not a disease. It is a symptom.
Recent years have seen a shocking increase in antidepressant use the world over, with one in four women starting her day with medication. These drugs have steadily become the panacea for everything from grief, irritability, and panic attacks to insomnia, PMS, and stress. But the truth is, what women really need can’t be found at a pharmacy.
According to Dr. Kelly Brogan, antidepressants not only overpromise and underdeliver, but their use may permanently disable the body’s self-healing potential. We need a new paradigm: The best way to heal the mind is to heal the whole body.
In this groundbreaking science-based and holistic approach, Dr. Brogan shatters the mythology conventional medicine has built around the causes and treatment of depression. Based on her expert interpretation of published medical findings combined with years of experience from her clinical practice, Dr. Brogan illuminates the true cause of depression: It is not simply a chemical imbalance but a lifestyle crisis that demands a reset. It is a signal that the interconnected systems in the body are out of balance – from blood sugar to gut health to thyroid function – and inflammation is at the root.
A Mind of Your Own offers an achievable, step-by-step 30-day action plan – including powerful dietary interventions, targeted nutrient support, detoxification, sleep, and stress reframing techniques – women can use to heal their bodies, alleviate inflammation, and feel like themselves again without a single prescription.
Bold, brave, and revolutionary, A Mind of Your Own takes listeners on a journey of self-empowerment for radical transformation that goes far beyond symptom relief.
Divine Collision: An African Boy, an American Lawyer, and Their Remarkable Battle for Freedom
Los Angeles lawyer and law professor, Jim Gash, tells the amazing true story of how, after a series of God-orchestrated events, he finds himself in the heart of Africa defending a courageous Ugandan boy languishing in prison and wrongfully accused of two separate murders. Ultimately, their unlikely friendship and unrelenting persistence reforms Uganda’s criminal justice system, leaving a lasting impact on hundreds of thousands of lives and unearthing a friendship that supersedes circumstance, culture and the walls we often hide behind.
There is no greater love than laying down your life for a friend. This profound love seeps through every page of Jim and Henry’s story, like a healing balm. Over the last several years I have had the great privilege of witnessing Jim’s passion for Ugandan people and his willingness to lay down his own life for others. Divine Collision will remind you once again how one small gesture of love can make a monumental impact on a person for eternity.
Katie Davis, Author of the New York Times Bestseller Kisses from Katie
With great courage and conviction, Jim Gash provides an extraordinary glimpse into the power of obedience, prayer, and hope in transforming not only one life-or even one community-but an entire justice system. Divine Collision speaks to what is at the heart of our Christian calling: Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow (Isaiah 1:17).
Gary A. Haugen, President & CEO of International Justice Mission and author of The Locust Effect
Divine Collision is a captivating book! Jesus calls us to visit the prisoner, proclaim justice for the oppressed, and set the captive free. Too often we’ve forgotten that He really meant it. Jim Gash didn’t forget, and his book reminds us this is Jesus’ call for us too.
Richard Stearns, President of World Vision U.S. and Author of The Hole in Our Gospel and Unfinished
