Stress Resets: How to Soothe Your Body and Mind in Minutes

Jennifer Taitz

A clinical psychologist gives us 75 quick, scientifically proven techniques and exercises to manage stress and build resilience. Here’s a promise that could not be more timely or You can dial down your stress in just a few minutes, with no ponderous meditations, medications, or martinis required. Written by Dr. Jennifer L. Taitz, a clinical psychologist who specializes in teaching mindfulness-based behavioral skills to manage intense emotions and situations, Stress Resets provides 75 scientifically proven ways to improve how you respond to stress, both in the moment and the long run. There are accessible yet powerful exercises like dipping your face in ice water to quiet your body and mind; adopting a half smile to change your mood from the outside in; singing your irrational negative thoughts to reduce their believability; building a hope kit so you can remind yourself of what’s possible in tough moments; and making a pie chart of your life to gain perspective. By incorporating these into your days, you can stop the cycle of obsessing, panicking, and avoiding and instead effectively approach what matters to you most. You’ll also find stress buffers designed to build your resilience so you can navigate whatever comes your way. Through personal anecdotes, expert interviews, cutting-edge studies, and practical tips, you’ll learn how to manage your emotions instead of the other way around. Stress Resets will not only change how you view your stress but also give you the hope and confidence you need to reset and ultimately change how you feel.

Falling Toward the Moon

R.H. Sin

From the authors of The New York Times bestseller Empty Bottles Full of Stories comes a brand-new collection of compelling poetry and prose.The heart will ache, the soul will feel weary, and the mind will be weighed down by the things you wish to forget. There will be nights when all you have is yourself and the moon. There will be nights when silence will exist in abundance. And even though you may feel lonely at first. You must understand that the solitude is a gift; you must understand that even when alone, you are more than enough.

I Am Not Your Final Girl

Claire C. Holland

From Claire C. Holland, a timely collection of poetry that follows the final girl of slasher cinema - the girl who survives until the end - on a journey of retribution and reclamation. From the white picket fences of 1970s Haddonfield to the apocalyptic end of the world, Holland confronts the role of women in relation to subjects including feminism, violence, motherhood, sexuality, and assault in the world of Trump and the MeToo movement. Each poem centers on a fictional character from horror cinema, and explores the many ways in which women find empowerment through their own perceived monstrousness.

High School Reading List 😬😬

So, my friends' kid brought home a list of the books (and movies?) they'll be studying in English class this term. This is what they have listed:

Lord of the Flies: William Golding (novel)
Cast Away: Robert Zemeckis (film)
Macbeth: Shakespeare (drama)
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty: Ben Stiller (film)
The Veldt: Ray Bradbury (short story)
Harrison Bergeron: Kurt Vonnegut (short story)
Robot Dreams: Isaac Asimov (short story)

If you read this list and thought "wow there's a shocking lack of female writers and even characters!", then we're on the same page. We're all mad about the same thing. I'm pretty sure they're all white Americans too (we're Canadian) 🙄 EDIT: skipped over Shakespeare, he's def not American lol same with William Golding, but British isn't better.

ANYWAYS, as we were raging about the horrible list, I thought of what I would include instead, to up the diversity by about 1000 times.

Here's the new list of most diverse books that I came up with (and this was just scrolling through my recently finished books) I was aiming for diversity plus good discussion points:

What Moves the Dead + The Fall of the House of Usher: compare and contrast and all that (short novel & short story)
The Empress of Salt & Fortune: feminist high fantasy short novel and the whole series is great (short novel)
Open Throat - short story of a queer mountain lion debating if it should eat people or not (that's a VERY brief summary lol) (short novel)
Long Way Down - an alternate to a play maybe? It's written in verse and about teenage gun violence (novel in verse)
OR The Girl and the Goddess by Nikita Gill: a book of coming of age poetry exploring Hindu mythology (novel in verse)
Princess Mononoke: Ghibli is great at writing strong female characters and the added environmentalism is a plus! (film)
Greta Gerwig's Little Women: I know, this is a typical answer but I still think it's a great movie. (film)

What would you guys switch these out with?

Help me find a sci-fi book pls!

Hello!! I’ve been looking for sci-fi book for a while now. And I was wondering if you have some recommendation for me because I cannot find a book that compels me to read it.

I’m a POC woman (adult) and I love romance so I think if I want to dive into the genre for the first time as a book—because I love sci-fi movies—I think I need a little bit of romance in it. And if you give me a rec written by BIPOC author, it will be amazing.

Thank you in advance!

Kobo vs Kindle?

I’m looking to purchase an ereader because I don’t have a lot of physical space and want to use it for books I want to try reading but don’t necessarily want in my physical book collection.

I’ve seen great things about Kobo ereaders. I really don’t want to support Amazon more than I have to, but wanted folks thoughts on kindles as well?

The Someday Birds

Sally J. Pla

Charlie wishes his life could be as predictable and simple as chicken nuggets. And it usually is. He has his clean room, his carefully organized bird books and art supplies, his favorite foods, and comfortable routines. But life has been unraveling since his war journalist father was injured in Afghanistan. And when Dad gets sent across country for medical treatment, Charlie must reluctantly travel to meet him. With his boy-crazy sister, unruly twin brothers, and a mysterious new family friend at the wheel, the journey looks anything but smooth. So Charlie decides to try and spot all the birds that he and his dad had been hoping to see together in the wild. If he can complete the Someday Birds list for Dad, then maybe, just maybe, things will turn out okay... Equal parts madcap road trip, coming-of-age story for an unusual boy, and portrait of a family overcoming a crisis.

Horrorstör

Grady Hendrix

Something strange is happening at the Orsk furniture superstore in Cleveland, Ohio. Every morning, employees arrive to find broken Kjerring bookshelves, shattered Glans water goblets, and smashed Liripip wardrobes. Sales are down, security cameras reveal nothing, and store managers are panicking. To unravel the mystery, three employees volunteer to work a nine-hour dusk-till-dawn shift. In the dead of the night, they’ll patrol the empty showroom floor, investigate strange sights and sounds, and encounter horrors that defy the imagination. A traditional haunted house story in a thoroughly contemporary setting, Horrorstör is designed to retain its luster and natural appearance for a lifetime of use. Pleasingly proportioned with generous French flaps and a softcover binding, Horrorstör delivers the psychological terror you need in the elegant package you deserve. Designed by Andie Reid, cover photography by Christine Ferrara.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation

Ottessa Moshfegh

A shocking, hilarious and strangely tender novel about a young woman’s experiment in narcotic hibernation, aided and abetted by one of the worst psychiatrists in the annals of literature. Our narrator has many of the advantages of life, on the surface. Young, thin, pretty, a recent Columbia graduate, she lives in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan paid for, like everything else, by her inheritance. But there is a vacuum at the heart of things, and it isn’t just the loss of her parents in college, or the way her Wall Street boyfriend treats her, or her sadomasochistic relationship with her alleged best friend. It’s the year 2000 in a city aglitter with wealth and possibility; what could be so terribly wrong? This story of a year spent under the influence of a truly mad combination of drugs, designed to heal us from our alienation from this world, shows us how reasonable, even necessary, that alienation sometimes is. Blackly funny, both merciless and compassionate – dangling its legs over the ledge of 9/11 – this novel is a showcase for the gifts of one of America’s major young writers working at the height of her powers.

I have never cried this much over a book. This book was hilarious and amazing from start to finish! I felt so connected and in love with these characters and their story. I mean, seriously a top-tier book. I adore how instead of an evil alien book, it was a book with so much friendship and love and humanity. I can't wait for the movie. Based on the trailers, I think they are going to do it justice and I can easily see Ryan Gosling doing a great job with the character. I know I'll be bawling my eyes out in the theater.

I honestly had 0 knowledge of China dealing with an opium problem. And that the problem was related to them producing and trading tea. 😳 It sounds too crazy to be real, but at the same time, I do believe it
