Recover from Burnout
Burnout is becoming an epidemic in South Africa, one of the most stressed nations in the world. It wreaks havoc with our moods, bodies, relationships and appetite. You will recognise the many flavours of burnout: • There’s the needing-a-caffeine-fix-to-get-you-going-in-the-morning burnout that has you eating everything containing caffeine, sugar, carbs or salt you can lay your hands on. • Or the combative burnout, which makes you pick a fight with everyone – family, friends, colleagues, strangers in traffic… • The not-wanting-to-talk-to-anyone-or-do-anything (other than lie in bed and watch undemanding movies or read trashy novels) burnout. • The miserable, depressed and dispirited burnout that makes you question every life choice you’ve ever made. • Or the burnout that has you so bone weary and so depleted that you can’t even pull a door closed, let alone yourself towards yourself. But the good news is that it can be stopped, you can recover from burnout and learn new healthy ways of living. By recognising the patterns that lead to burnout you can change your habits for the better. If you find yourself pleasing others at your own expense; saying yes when you should say no (and no, when you should say yes); trying to do everything yourself rather than asking for help or giving more than you have – then you need this book as the start of a journey back to balance and health. Life coach Judy Klipin – who has herself suffered from burnout – shows us how burnout works and provides clear-cut guidance on how to recover from burnout, and keep it at bay for the rest of your life.

Song for Sarah
In this, Jansen's most personal and intimate book to date, South Africa's beloved Professor contemplates the stereotypes and stigma so readily applied to Cape Flats mothers as bawdy, lusty and gap-toothed - and offers this endearing antidote as a praise song to mothers everywhere who raise families and build communities in difficult places. As a young man, Jansen questioned how mothers managed to raise children in trying circumstances - and then realised that the answer was right in front of him in the form of Sarah Jansen, his own mother. Tracing her early life in Montagu and the consequences of apartheid's forced removals, Jansen unpacks how strong women managed to not only keep families together, but raise them with integrity. With his trademark delicacy, humour and frankness, Jansen follows his mother's life story as a young nurse and mother to five children, and shows how mothers dealt with their pasts, organised their homes, made sense of politics, managed affection, communicated core values - how they led their lives. As a balance to his own recollections, Jansen has called on his sister, Naomi, to offer her own insights and memories, adding special value to this touching personal memoir.

Between The World And Me
In the 150 years since the end of the Civil War and the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment, the story of race and America has remained a brutally simple one, written on flesh: it is the story of the black body, exploited to create the country's foundational wealth, violently segregated to unite a nation after a civil war, and, today, still disproportionately threatened, locked up and killed in the streets. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can America reckon with its fraught racial history? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’ attempt to answer those questions, presented in the form of a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son the story of his own awakening to the truth about history and race through a series of revelatory experiences: immersion in nationalist mythology as a child; engagement with history, poetry and love at Howard University; travels to Civil War battlefields and the South Side of Chicago; a journey to France that reorients his sense of the world; and pilgrimages to the homes of mothers whose children's lives have been taken as American plunder. Taken together, these stories map a winding path towards a kind of liberation—a journey from fear and confusion, to a full and honest understanding of the world as it is. Masterfully woven from lyrical personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me offers a powerful new framework for understanding America's history and current crisis, and a transcendent vision for a way forward.

I Don't Want to Die Unknown
Dan Moyane was 10 years old when he lay on his back on a patch of grass at his parents' home in White City Jabavu, Soweto, looking at the moon and thinking, 'I don't want to die unknown.' The year was 1969, and Neil Armstrong and his team had recently achieved immortality by completing the first moon landing. It was the knowledge that the astronauts would be remembered as long as the world turned that made Dan realise that he, too, would like to be remembered by people outside of his immediate community; just as he would like to find out more about what lay beyond his horizon. Dan's insatiable curiosity and love of learning have ensured that his name has, indeed, become known throughout South Africa. This is the story of how he achieved his goal - from his days as a student at the apex of South Africa's political turmoil, to his years in exile in Mozambique and his first job in media, and the trajectory of a career that would see him become one of South Africa's most highly regarded and influential broadcasters. It is a career that led Dan to interview prominent leaders in Mozambique and South Africa and become acquainted with the likes of Nelson Mandela and Graca Machel, and saw him cover the country's birth into democracy, and help shape South Africans' understanding of the changed world around them. I Don't Want to Die Unknown delves into these experiences, giving a glimpse into the inquisitiveness and desire to know more, do more and be more that has driven Dan Moyane. It offers a rare insight into the man behind the microphone - his ambitions, trials, and motivations. Part memoir, part legacy, this book bears testimony to the fact that far from dying unknown, Dan is one of South Africa's most important, high profile media players and his story provides the framework for his next significant question: How best to use his public profile to benefit his countrymen.

stormsee swyg
Helmuth Gunther, die aantreklike baas van Gunther en Vennote, styg met sy Cessna net buite Reniersburg in die Karoo op. Hy is opgewonde om ‘n grondtransaksie in die Weskus te gaan beklink. ‘n Verskriklike windstorm laat sy vliegtuig egter neerstort in ‘n bloekombos. Die harde kopstamp wat Gunther opdoen, vlek die donker gange van sy jarelange geheueverlies oop. ‘n Dramatiese reddingspoging laat hom in Reniersburg se hospitaal uit sy bewustelose toestand wakker word waar sy staatmakersekretaresse, Lanie de Wet hom besoek. Langs Gunther se hospitaalbed loop sy haar egter vas in allerhande onthoubeelde wat by Helmuth begin opkom en sy begin besef…die man op wie sy verlief is, is dalk iemand anders. In hierdie tyd is inspekteur Leander Fourie, die nuwe bevelvoerder van Kransbaai se polisiestasie, juis besig om al die onafgehandelde dossiere van sy voorganger, deur te werk. Toe die briewetas van Helmuth Gunther uit die Cessnawrak gehaal word en sy identiteit plus ‘n vroeere foto van hom daarin gekry word, wek dit die speurinstink by inspekteur Fourie teen ‘n spoed op. Want in een van die onafgehandelde dossiere le daar ‘n identiese foto wat net ‘n jonger weergawe is van die bloekombos se slagoffer. Dis egter ‘n foto sonder die wondmerke aan die gesig en onder ‘n ander naam. Hoe onvoorspelbaar, hoe diep en hoe lank kan ‘n stormsee sy geheime bewaar?

Soul 2 sole
At the core of every human being is the voice of the soul. This voice longs to live in our daily walk or the sole. Soul 2 sole tackles the journey and believes that by asking better questions and ultimately bridging this gap, the individual leader and influencer can live more effectively and make a larger difference in his/her life and the lives of their community. Soul 2 sole is about your footsteps and your soul moving to the same beat. With this book, Webster asks this essential question: Is it possible to align the Soul to the sole? Is there a movement away from conspicuous consumerism, towards a more holistic lifestyle where the pursuit of authenticity is desired? Or perhaps we should be attempting to marry modernity, technology and a new definition of what it means to live authentically, because the old definition suggests we walk barefoot, put away our phones and forgo chatting in favour of living in the spiritual moment? For your soul to find its way into the sole of your feet, the machine we know to be the brain must be acknowledged as both an enabler and a hurdle. The brain or the biological bridge between the soul/sole evolves and shifts over time; and science has now shown that we know far too little about elements of the brain, both consciously and unconsciously, to suggest any of us have full control over our authenticity. Both the soul and the sole have unique identities, completely separate from each other, and the key to understanding authenticity is to view them both in isolation as well as fused together. This book investigates the history, thinking, sociological obstacles and the neuroscience of crossing this complicated bridge to authenticity.

Die boek beantwoord veral drie belangrike vrae: Watter stappe kan ons vandag doen om ons brein en daarom onsself gelukkiger te maak? Hoekom beroof 'n obsessie met materiele sukses ons van geluk en ons menslikheid? Hoe beinvloed ons kultuur en ouerskap in die eerste lewensjare ons geluk en menslikheid?
