Reconnect with your intuition, heal gently, and manifest your dreams with intention—one season, one cycle, one phase at a time.

MOON GARDEN:
Poetry for Manifestation
by Melody Godfred
Andrews McMeel, October 2025

From Melody Godfred, author of the international bestseller Self Love Poetry for Thinkers & Feelers, comes MOON GARDEN: Poetry for Manifestation, a one-of-a-kind poetry book where the moon becomes your manifestation guide.

This isn’t a book that pushes you forward. MOON GARDEN welcomes you home to yourself.

Inspired by the lunar cycles and set in an ethereal moon garden, this spiritual poetry collection combines deeply personal poems and meditative prose to help you slow down, soften, and realign—with your inner truth and the rhythm of nature.

MOON GARDEN  reminds us that personal growth and emotional healing don’t follow a straight line. Like nature, transformation unfolds like a garden, blooming in its own time. Whether you’re in a season of planting, tending, harvesting, or rest, this book offers wisdom, encouragement, and space to reflect on where you are—and where you’re meant to go next as you begin to move through the world with greater intention and presence.

More than a poetry book, MOON GARDEN: Poetry for Manifestation is a year-long companion for dream fulfillment and inner peace, guided by the quiet beauty of the night and the light that already lives within you.

LIFE IN PERSPECTIVE de Tiago Forte

A proven, powerful practice for reclaiming perspective on your life, your values, and your future—from the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Building a Second Brain and The PARA Method.

The Art and Power of the Annual Review

In our age of hyperconnectivity and information overload, something has become scarce: the ability to make sense of it all—to step back far enough to see the shape of your own life. You can feel it in ways large and small: achieving a goal but not being able to pause long enough to appreciate it. Watching the weeks and months pass in a blur without a sense of the bigger “why.” Making decisions that look right on paper but somehow feel wrong at a deeper level. How do we regain our sense of perspective on what matters?

In LIFE IN PERSPECTIVE, Wall Street Journal bestselling author Tiago Forte distills the ancient practice of the annual life review into a modern, step-by-step method—drawing on nearly twenty years of personal practice and the experience of teaching it to thousands of people worldwide. At its heart is the ARC Method, a three-stage process for Appreciating the Past, Reflecting on the Present, and Creating the Future. Through guided journaling, gratitude practices, visualization exercises, and other science-backed techniques—along with practical guidance on using technology as a tool for self-reflection—the book shows you how to transform what feels like a random string of experiences into a coherent story of growth, gain clarity on what you truly want rather than what you think you should want, and translate what you discover into concrete projects and plans for the year ahead. The past and present, Forte argues, are full of information—but they don’t communicate through analysis alone. They speak through what captures your attention, what moves you, what your body knows before your mind catches up.

Whether you turn to it as a yearly ritual or a trusted guide during pivotal moments, LIFE IN PERSPECTIVE is not a book about doing more. It is a book about seeing more clearly—and discovering that the biggest changes in life often begin not with a new plan, but with a new point of view.

Tiago Forte is the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Building a Second Brain, The PARA Method, and Life in Perspective. His books have sold more than 500,000 copies worldwide and been published in more than twenty-five languages. He is the creator of the Building a Second Brain methodology, which has been adopted by readers around the world and inside organizations including Genentech, Toyota Motor Corporation, and the Inter-American Development Bank. His work has been featured in The New York Times, Harvard Business Review, Fast Company, and Time, among others. He lives in Valle de Bravo, Mexico, with his wife and children.

DIE WELLE DEINER EMOTIONEN de Betty Ebner

Understand your nervous system and learn to regulate your emotions – for greater inner peace and emotional stability.

DIE WELLE DEINER EMOTIONEN
(The Wave of Your Emotions)
by Betty Ebner
Yuna-Publishing/PRH Germany, November 2025

In this book, I take you on a journey back to yourself; to your body, your feelings, your inner sea.

Perhaps you sometimes feel overwhelmed by yourself. Your emotions are too loud and your everyday life too fast. Your nervous system is in a constant state of alarm. You function – but you no longer feel. Or only in extremes.

I know this place. I’ve been there. And I found my way back. Not because I had « it under control », but because I learned to accompany myself.

This book is not a guide to functioning. It is an invitation to feel yourself again; to recognise yourself in your depths and learn how to deal safely with everything that is inside you – even when it is stormy at times.

« The Wave of Your Emotions » combines personal stories, scientific background and practical ideas for your everyday life. It is a book for anyone who no longer wants to run away – but wants to learn to stay.

For everyone who wants to feel without losing themselves. And for everyone who knows that healing is not a decision – it is an experience.

Betty Ebner (b. 1998) has spent more than five years working in the fields of character development, mindset and discovering your inner child. What started as a personal journey has become a vocation, and she now has thousands of followers on social media, where she helps them lead a happier and emotionally independent life. She also teaches online courses and is a popular life coach. She lives in Austria with her husband and young daughter.

THE CONVENIENCE TRAP de Robert Carter III & Kirti Salwe Carter

What if the very things designed to make life easier are slowly making us weaker?

THE CONVENIENCE TRAP:
Why a Life of Ease is Costing Us Our Strength—and How to Get It Back
by Robert Carter III, PhD, MPH & Kirti Salwe Carter, MD, MPH

In an age where comfort is king and friction is engineered out of daily life, THE CONVENIENCE TRAP exposes the hidden cost of modern ease—and offers a bold roadmap for reclaiming resilience in a culture of soft living.

We can now summon groceries, skip lines, and avoid discomfort with a single tap. But in doing so, we’ve also stopped moving, stopped thinking deeply, and lost the habits that once made us strong. The result? A widespread decline in physical vitality, mental stamina, and social connection.

Drawing on decades of research and clinical experience, Drs. Robert and Kirti Carter explore how a convenience-obsessed world has undermined our health, adaptability, and sense of purpose. From dopamine-driven distraction to fragile supply chains and disintegrating community bonds, THE CONVENIENCE TRAP reveals how comfort has quietly become a design flaw—and why effort is the forgotten key to human flourishing.

At the heart of the book is the A.L.I.V.E. Framework: a five-part transformation model that closes each chapter, guiding readers to move from insight to action with sustainable, empowering steps toward a more vital, engaged life. Provocative and deeply practical, THE CONVENIENCE TRAP is a call to parents, educators, professionals, and future-builders to stop outsourcing effort—and start designing lives, bodies, and systems built to endure, evolve, and thrive.

Dr. Robert Carter III, is a nationally recognized scientist, bestselling author, and U.S. military officer with more than 25 years of experience in human performance and leadership. Dr. Kirti Salwe Carter is an integrative health expert who blends Eastern and Western traditions in her work on holistic wellness and stress resilience. Together, they are the authors of The Morning Mind: Use Your Brain to Master Your Day and Supercharge Your Life.
