Explore how psychedelic therapy can address deep-rooted trauma and help you create a life of balance, resilience, and meaning

A revolutionary approach to treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, or other mental health challenges, from two leaders in the field of psychedelic therapy and trauma treatment with a foreword by Gabor Maté.

For those grappling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or other mental health challenges—and those who feel let down by a fragmented and failing mental health system—Psychedelic Therapy offers a hopeful, evidence-based exploration of a novel approach to healing. As leaders in the field of psychedelic therapy and trauma treatment, Will Van Derveer, MD, and Keith Kurlander, LPC, draw on their clinical expertise, client stories, and the latest research to help you:

•Understand trauma and psychedelic therapy’s unique ability to address it
•Learn about the substances commonly used in psychedelic therapy
•Navigate the process step-by-step, including preparation, dosing, and integration
•Prioritize safety, outline key considerations, and minimize risk
•Gain insight for navigating any spiritual or psychological challenges that may arise

The authors address the limitations of today’s mental health care by explaining how a focus on symptom management brings little relief and leaves many patients still desperate for healing. They reveal how psychedelic therapy uniquely targets the root causes of suffering, particularly trauma, which is a critical yet often misunderstood driver of mental health struggles.

Whether you’re considering psychedelic therapy for yourself, supporting a loved one, or seeking professional insights as a mental health provider, this book equips you with the knowledge to find qualified practitioners, understand the process, and navigate challenging experiences with care and confidence.

Essential, empowering medical information and advice to help you prepare for your Labor and Delivery journey—from a leading OB-GYN and social media educator.

Birth is a transformative, remarkable process, but it can also be an incredibly daunting and traumatic—especially if you don't have the medically-sound information you need to advocate for yourself. With misinformation rampant on social media and a dearth of trusted medical resources on the birth process, women and pregnant people feel left behind in a system that is failing them. Thirty-six percent of counties in American are labeled "maternity care deserts" where there is no or limited access to obstetric care—and it’s only getting worse. We need a concise and comprehensive primer on the birth experience, whether that means a low-intervention birth or a complicated emergency c-section.

In The Birth Book, OB-GYN hospitalist and educator Dr. Jennifer Lincoln delivers exactly that. Dr. Lincoln answers all your questions, big and small, about labor and delivery, providing crucial insight and understanding. Questions
What is "normal" labor? What can I say no to?What are my options if baby is breech?How long does an induction take?And many, many more.
Backed by research and personal experience and including enlightening illustrations, The Birth Book gives you agency over your pregnancy and birth, along with context for the many choices you'll need to make. With Dr. Lincoln's help, readers will have an evidence-based resource at their fingertips for a better, safer, more informed birth.

From one-on-one bullying to mass atrocities, humans commit a spectrum of violence and dehumanization, then society gaslights victims, minimizing tormentors as “nothing but bullies.” Society and culture, physiology and development contribute to this ecology of oppression, as do the current and past impacts of these behaviors. As resources shrink and competition rises, we brand others unworthy of life. By understanding the ecosystems of degradation and subjugation, and their contributing and interacting factors, we gain a potential roadmap to reduce their mayhem on our future.

Me, But Better: The Science and Promise of Personality Change

Is it really possible to change one's personality in a year? The Atlantic journalist Olga Khazan proves it is in Me, But Better, which covers her year-long experiment in personality change.

In recent years journalist Olga Khazan had been heading into an existential crisis. Although she treasured her loving, long-term relationship and her dream job, she often caught herself snatching dissatisfaction from the jaws of happiness. Her neurotic overachieving had always been a professional asset, but lately Khazan felt her brittle disposition could shatter under the weight of just one more thing. She knew something had to give—but was it really possible to change her approach to life?

Research shows one can alter personality traits by behaving in ways that align with the kind of person one would like to be—a process that can bring greater happiness, better health, and more success. In Me, But Better, Khazan embarks on an experiment to see whether it’s possible to go from dwelling in dread to “radiating joy.” For one year, she reluctantly clicked “yes” on a bucket list of new experiences—from meditation to improv to sailing—that forced her to at least act happy. With a skeptic’s eye, Khazan brings the reader on her journey through the science of personality, presenting evidence-backed techniques to help readers change their minds for the better. Sharply witty and deeply fascinating, Me, But Better offers a probing inquiry into what it means to live a fulfilling life, and how one can keep diving into change, no matter how uncomfortable it feels.
