Story115
If you have anxiety, this book is for you. If you love someone who is anxious, this book is for you. I Quit Sugar founder and New York Times best-selling author Sarah Wilson has lived through high anxiety - including bipolar, OCD and several suicide attempts - her whole life. Perhaps like you, she grew tired of seeing anxiety as a disease that must be medicated into submission. Could anxiety be resewn, she asked, into a thing of beauty? So began a seven-year journey to find a more meaningful and helpful take on anxiety.

Reigning CrossFit world champion Rich Froning is "the fittest man on Earth". He's fast, he's strong, and he's incredibly disciplined. But it takes more than physical strength to compete and win at an elite level. It takes incredible mental and spiritual toughness as well. And it is the precise balance of all three that makes Rich Froning a champion.

Duncan Falconer has survived five explosions, two only just, been shot at on numerous occasions, chased by machete wielders, hunted by man and beast, survived drowning once, a faulty parachute opening once, an air-crash, several vehicle crashes, blacked out with anaphylactic shock, walked through a minefield, barely escaped capture by fanatical terrorists when others were caught and executed, and experienced close calls so many times he has forgotten most of them. First Into Action Again is a sequel to Falconer's best-selling first autobiography, First Into Action.

Then, in April 1975, Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge army stormed into the city, forcing Ung's family to flee and, eventually, to disperse. Loung was trained as a child soldier in a work camp for orphans, her siblings were sent to labor camps, and those who survived the horrors would not be reunited until the Khmer Rouge was destroyed.
