Alice R Bishop says: “I have always been a keen reader and from the age of eight I could read most things. During my school years I always had on my report card for English ‘Alice has a wonderful imagination, I wish she would stop daydreaming and put her imagination onto paper.’

“For many years I have wanted to be an author, but it wasn’t until Covid-19 lock down hit did I really give it a go. The stress of coping with the lockdown amongst many things caused me to have a flare up with my fibromyalgia, but even with this I struggled forward writing my manuscript. A few times I nearly gave up, my body hurt and my brain felt like it had cotton wool inside of it, but I managed to complete it.  

 “I also have a son with ASD who makes my world brighter every day, part of the reason I stuck with writing even though I have plenty of ‘nay sayers’ is because I want to show him that dreams should be followed and worth achieving.”

#BookTalk - Answers in the Dark: Grief, Sleep and How Dreams Can Help You Heal by Delphi Ellis

O books offer a vast range of carefully crafted and selected titles available in paperback and on all E-readers, through Amazon, Kindle, Hive, Barnes and Noble, and wherever books are sold.

You are never alone when you have a great book to read...

 

Answers in the Dark: Grief, Sleep and How Dreams Can Help You Heal by Delphi Ellis

 

The 4 am Mystery: that’s an actual thing by the way. Even before a global health crisis took the shape of COVID-19, people around the world were finding themselves sleep-deprived, awake in the middle of the night. You might be someone who says, no matter what you do, you just can’t sleep. Sometimes you know why: your thoughts are racing, or a nightmare has startled you into consciousness. Other nights, you might toss and turn and, just as you finally doze off, the alarm blares. This book was written for you. It explores why you’re awake, how you can manage your mind at night, and what might help if it’s your dream content wreaking havoc.

 

Drawing on nearly two decades of therapeutic work, research, and ancient wisdom has proven to helpfully manage the mind, Delphi connects the dots between sleep, dreams, and our mental health. She particularly highlights the impact of grief and loss on our well-being, which can ultimately affect the quality of our night-time rest - even if no one has died. Her book guides the reader on a journey to make friends with night-time, learning what the dark might have to offer, to achieve a calmer, healthier, happier life.

 

I was diagnosed with PTSD in 2016, resulting in a significant increase in my dreams and nightmares. Whilst I received therapy to live with my PTSD, understanding my dreams and interpreting them have always been a mystery. This book has unlocked those questions, I am grateful for the support and answers they have given me. The sleep cycle repair kit offers practical help.

 

“A must-read. Thank you!” ~ Pip (Reviewer)

 

Delphi is a qualified counsellor, well-being trainer and mindfulness practitioner who has worked in a therapeutic setting since 2002. She started her helping career supporting people in grief, mainly those bereaved by murder and suicide. She now works in the community promoting mental health maintenance and recovery, mindful leadership and workplace wellness. She lives in Bedfordshire, UK.

Why Won’t You Let Me Speak?: Topical New Book Teaches Women to ‘Grab the Mic’ at Work and in Life

 Written by Sara Harling, ‘Why Won’t You Let Me Speak?’ Is sure to resonate with women (and men) all over the world. The book is a must-read for anyone who struggles with feelings of alienation and frustration, wondering if they’re just not loud enough at work or home. Harling outlines why women are often interrupted, and provides practical advice to have readers feeling confident in every aspect of their lives.

A recent study by George Washington University found that men interrupted women 33 percent more often during conversations than they did when they were speaking with other men. Supreme Court Justices aren’t even safe from this alarming trend - another study found that over the past twelve years in the United States Supreme Court, 32 percent of all interruptions were male justices speaking over their female counterparts. It’s a phenomena that author Sara Harling knows well, and it forms the basis of her new book, Why Won’t You Let Me Speak?

 

Concise, compelling and practical, Why Won’t You Let Me Speak? is a handbook for every woman in today’s workplace - full of the skills that women need to survive, and guidance on how to speak up and be heard.

 

Synopsis:

 

“Why won’t you let me speak?”

 

Does this feel like you - constantly being interrupted at work? Sat in a room with people and wanting to talk, but for some reason, you can’t get a word in edgeways? Have you ever felt that way? You’re in a meeting and as you’re talking, someone else starts to talk over you, interrupts you and takes over the conversation. Ouch! Do you spend time overthinking and wondering why this keeps happening again and again? Do you feel like no one is listening and you can’t be heard?

 

Then stop!

 

This book will give you tools and skills to help improve your communication skills and boost your confidence in any situation. You will find out why this keeps happening to you and how to change things quickly and easily. You will be able to contribute to that meeting, build your self-esteem and confidence and handle any situation you may face at work, or indeed, in your personal life.

 

Take back control over your work, your career and even your relationships with family and friends and get the life and career you deserve.

 

It’s time for Direct Talk.

 

“What’s interesting is that men are reading the book in droves,” says Harling. “I think in this #MeToo era, men do feel more of a responsibility to really listen to their colleagues and friends - more so than they may have felt in the past. They’re interested in shutting down problematic behaviours from colleagues, and giving women the chance to shine.”

 

Continuing, “I think women internalize this idea that ‘no one likes a strong woman’ - it’s just not true. Speaking up and having your voice heard isn’t something that only men get to enjoy - women can do it too, and I promise - it will change every facet of your life!”
 

Reviews have touted the “eye-opening” nature of the book, with readers giving it an enthusiastic five stars on Amazon.

 

“Full of great tips to ensure you will be heard and also be confident. Don’t be afraid of putting your point across in meetings. Read this book. It makes you realise your voice can be heard and that your points are valid,” wrote Sharan Madeley.

 

S Hitchings agreed, writing, “A very honest account of communication and confidence, it made me stop and think many times! It’s condensed enough not to put off reading until you have time, which makes it an excellent reference tool as you can reread and reflect easily. Really is a very helpful and insightful tool, would highly recommend.”

 

Why Won’t You Let Me Speak? Is available now:

Receiving outstanding praise, reviews of Unhackable Soul include:

“I love this radically transformative book!!! As someone who lives with daily chronic pain from CRPS, Unhackable Soul is a roadmap to reclaim your joy and reignite the light within you despite pain! Maureen’s authentic storytelling illustrates how difficult experiences and deep wounds, both mental and physical, are the very things that can gift us a deeper power and resilience if we allow them.  Maureen generously brings us her personal journey and shares her formula for moving through tremendous pain with grit and grace. Run, don’t walk, and grab this book if you live with any kind of pain!”
Amberly Lago – Expert Mindset Coach, TEDx speaker, True Grit and Grace Podcast Host, best-selling author of True Grit and Grace: Turning Tragedy into Triumph.
 
“Unhackable Soul is a resource and guide to achieving a fulfilling life despite chronic pain.  It offers a durable, liveable alternative to pharmacology and interventions. As a physician and surgeon who has worked with chronic pain patients, I whole-heartedly recommend this book for all who may live with chronic pain or disability.  It offers a sustainable path to healthy, balanced well-being instead of a life of drugs, depression, and misery.  In an era of endemic opioids and dependency, it cracks in the light for the pain sufferer on what can be for them and an ever-darkening world.”
Dr Hugh A Gelabert, Physician and Surgeon, UCLA School of Medicine.
 
“As founder and CEO of the Burning Limb Foundation and aware of the crucial role that mind and spirit play in individuals living with chronic pain disease, I highly recommend this book. Maureen’s personal inspirational story and her step-by-step revitalizing daily elixir makes this book a valuable go-to companion and guide for living well with pain and illness. Maureen’s words incorporate ideas that are not just firmly rooted in the truth but also come from a loving perspective that only one who has experienced debilitating illness intimately can bring. Unhackable Soul provides me with yet another tool when working with those who live with chronic illness and is a true blueprint for how not just to live but to thrive.”
Philip Robert, Founder and CEO of the Burning Limb Foundation.
 
“Fantastically uplifting and encouraging from someone who knows what it feels like to experience challenges and still live fully. Maureen’s spirit shines through every page to speak to you and pull you forward. Wonderful!”
