Ananda : happiness without reason / Prashant, Acharya

What is that one fundamental thing for which we go about toiling all our lives-sacrificing, negotiating, scheming, praying? Intuitively, one might answer-happiness. But do we really know what happiness is? Most of the existing literature paints a fuzzy picture of happiness, beautiful in words but lacking in practicality. In this book, Acharya Prashant shatters all misconceptions about happiness jargons like 'loving unconditionally' and 'living in the present'. He explains how what we commonly understand as happiness exists only in the backdrop of sadness, and what man is really looking for is not just happiness, but Ananda-an unconditional joy free from both happiness and sadness. Discarding multiple myths that burden our consciousness, the book draws from scriptures like the Gita and the Upanishads, revealing the true meaning of Ananda. If you have the courage to question your deep-rooted beliefs and enter an unfathomable territory beyond the duality of happiness and sadness, this book is for you.

Finding wholeness, harmony and rest : exposing the conflict in all thinking / Bailey, Darryl

Another in the series of books by Darryl Bailey in which he explores the ever-changing nuances of perception, thought, and circumstance. "I want to consider a major difficulty that arises in the life of every person, and within society in general. It is perhaps the single largest barrier to the happiness and health of every human being and the largest barrier to the happiness and health of society as a whole. This difficulty has to do with the relationship of thinking to our actual experience of existence, and the fact that every thought that we have is in conflict with our experience of life."

Nourish : simple recipes to empower your body and feed your soul / Bündchen, Gisele

World-renowned model and wellness advocate Gisele Bundchen presents a collection of 100 delicious, accessible recipes focused on kickstarting and maintaining a healthy lifestyle while finding balance and intention through food. Gisele believes wellness begins with food. At home, she follows an 80/20 plan, with 80 percent of her diet focused on fueling her body with healthy and lean proteins and nutrient-rich vegetables while the remaining 20 percent is reserved for eating with more flexibility (hello mom's chicken lasagna!). In her first cookbook, she devotes the first quarter of the book to walking readers through adjusting to this new mindset and offers practical guidance for making it work. From breaking cycles to setting intentions, the merits of an occasional juice fast, buying in bulk, minimizing waste, and meal planning, this book of 100 recipes is as much about cooking as it is about living with mindfulness. Just like many of us, Gisele is no stranger to restrictive diet fads and unhealthy eating habits. In Nourish, she provides guidance on how to create a routine filled with positive intention, delicious food, and gratitude to improve your health and mindset.
