What if emotional abuse is so hidden that its effects remain unchallenged for decades, masquerading as personal failings? Believing Me is an emotionally gripping memoir that gives language to the hidden and ineffable nature of childhood trauma and how it can imprint on a person, resulting in fractured self-esteem, addictions, perfectionism, and a string of abusive relationships.

Instead, decluttering is about the emotions we put behind our stuff. That’s why we can struggle so much with throwing out our favourite mug when it chips or parting with those (very) expensive shoes that we never actually wear… Sound familiar?

The demon of madness is dead. Daltaro is saved. And Raven suddenly found something that he had long considered lost. But there are still many secrets and unexpected meetings in his future, as well as the first event in the history of the "game." The test that was prepared for hundreds of millions of players has begun. But are things truly as simple as they seem? The rewards are Influence Points. Once as rare as hen's teeth, they are now being given out like hotcakes. Just like the Teleportation Scrolls that lead to the Tablets. Why the sudden change?

American author Will Durant claimed that, "we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit." I like to think that this applies to love, too. Love is not something we do once and check off the list. "To love" is a verb, not a passive attitude but a living, breathing discipline that relies on our consistent cultivation.

Before Raven lies a new ball of questions that he cannot unravel alone. His acquaintance with Niyara makes it clear that the universe is not only a boundless bunch of galaxies but an entire system of thousands of servers connected by a network of teleports, inhabited by many different civilizations.

»Fight, flight or freeze« – diese Reaktionen auf eine Gefahr oder ein traumatisches Ereignis sind inzwischen allgemein bekannt. Die weit verbreitete vierte Reaktion kommt gerade erst ans Licht: »Fawn« – zu deutsch der Bambi-Reflex. Betroffene suchen nach Sicherheit, indem sie sich an die Wünsche, Bedürfnisse und Anforderungen anderer anpassen. Anstatt ihre eigenen Träume zu verfolgen, helfen sie ständig anderen, deren Ziele zu erfüllen. Am schlimmsten: Sie haben immer das Gefühl, selbst schuld zu sein und unfähig, etwas zu ändern.

True happiness is an "inside job". Look at a happy person's life and you don't see any magic or unicorns. There's nothing in them that isn't also in you. Though external realities can certainly play a role, happiness doesn't spring from what you have, what happens to you, the situation you are in, where you are, or anything else. Happiness doesn't have much to do with money, with achievement, or with possessions, because plenty of people have all three and are still not happy. In this guide, we'll approach happiness not as something you have, but something you actively do.

Do you ever look at people who are successful, healthy, and happy and wonder what their secret is? Why you can't be like that?

For me, developing self-love has been profoundly healing. I can hardly believe how effortless it has been for me to quit overeating, exercise daily, attract a loving relationship, and more.
