Abel &amp; Cole’s story starts in 1988 with Keith Abel flogging potatoes door-to-door. ‘Of course potatoes are organic,’ he thought, ‘they’re vegetables’. However, he quickly discovered how unnecessarily complicated our food system had become and, consequently, realised the huge benefits of going organic and never looked back. In fact, Abel &amp; Cole still get veg from the farm where Keith's first organic spuds came from. 
To this day, their priorities remain the same. Now, selling 100% organic produce, Abel &amp; Cole believe that organic farming (a holistic system that encourages biodiversity) is the very best way to go. It protects our countryside and the critters that inhabit it, insists on the very best animal welfare, supports your local community and, frankly, tastes heaps better. Abel &amp; Cole think so anyway.

We all have bad habits - whether it's a weakness for junk food, a smartphone addiction or a lack of exercise. But change is hard. Forty percent of dieters quit within a week. Eighty percent of New Year's resolutions don't last beyond January. How can we kick bad habits - and stick with it? 
 
According to psychologist and behaviour researcher Dr Sean Young, the answer is to stop trying to change the person, and instead change the process. In Stick With It, Dr Young draws on his own research and that of other leading experts to explain how the mind often interferes with breaking bad habits, and how we can outsmart it, increasing the likelihood of lasting change by 300%. 
 
Packed with practical exercises and real-life case studies, Stick With It shows that it is possible to control spending, stick to a diet, exercise regularly and overcome problem behaviours - forever.

"One of the most influential doctors in the UK (...) I could talk to Rangan all day (...) he's amazing" - Chris Evans.

By making small, easily achievable changes in each of these key areas you can find and maintain good health - and avoid illness. You don't need to excel at any one pillar; what matters is the balance across all the things you do, from: 
 
· Having an electronic 'sabbath' once a week 
· Aiming for 12 hours every day without food 
· Exposing yourself to sunlight first thing each morning 
 
Based on cutting - edge research and his own experience as a GP, and featuring fascinating case studies from real patients, The Four Pillar Plan is an inspiring, easy-to-follow and practical guide to good health.

Carolyne Faulkner

Nobody's future is written in the stars, but we can use the stars to help write our future. 
 
For thousands of years people have looked to the night sky for the answers to life's problems. Today's practice is a far cry from newspaper horoscopes and fortune-telling, but instead uses the ancient wisdom of astrology to help us better understand our choices and ourselves. It's not about prescriptive descriptions of personality and fate, but about putting the individual at the centre of decision making. 
 
In The Signs, Carolyne Faulkner describes with warmth and humour the qualities associated with each star sign - the good and the bad - and explains how you can use your birth chart (a map of the night sky at the time you were born) to make smarter choices, avoid triggers to stress and forge stronger relationships. This is a clear and simple guide to using the stars to take control of every aspect of your life.

Andy Molinsky

Is it easy for you to deliver bad news? Do you look forward to speaking in public? Do you enjoy networking? If you answered no to any of these questions, Reach can help. 
 
What often sets successful people apart is their willingness to do things most of us fear. What's more, we have the false notion that successful people like to do these things, when the truth is that successful people have simply found their own way to do them. In Reach, Andy Molinsky breaks down the five key challenges underlying our avoidance tendencies and illuminates the path towards enjoying what you once feared. 
 
Short, prescriptive, and based not only on the author's ground-breaking research, but on his own personal experience, Reach will help you take the thing you are most afraid of doing and make it a proud part of your personal repertoire.

How to Build Confidence and Step Outside Your Comfort Zone

James Wallman

We're all stuffocated. We have more stuff than we could ever need - but it's bad for the planet and it's making us stressed. It might even be killing us. 
 
 In this groundbreaking book, trend forecaster James Wallman finds that a rising number of people are turning away from all-you-can-get consumption, from the exec who's sold almost everything he owns, to the well-off family who moved to a remote mountain cabin. 
 
 In Stuffocation, Wallman's solution is to focus less on possessions and more on experiences. It is a manifesto for a vital change in how you live - and it's the one book you won't be able to live without.

Edward de Bono

Most of our everyday decision-making tends to be confrontational. Whether in large meetings, one-to-one or even in our own heads, opposite view points are pitted against each other. Ultimately, there must be a winner and a loser. 
 
In I Am Right,You Are Wrong, lateral-thinking guru Edward de Bono challenges this 'rock logic' of rigid categories and point-scoring arguments which is both destructive and exhausting. 
 
Instead he reveals how we can all be winners. Clearer perception is the key to constructive thinking and more open-minded creativity. 
 
In overturning conventional wisdom, Edward de Bono will help you to become a better thinker and decision maker.

I Am Right, You Are Wrong

Do you want your friends, colleagues or the stranger you talk to on the bus to think of you as the most interesting person they've spoken to that week? 
 
Being interesting isn't about having out-of-this-world adventures, it isn't about being beautiful, it isn't even about being intelligent or confident. Being interesting can be taught. Being interesting is a state of mind. 
 
Lateral thinking guru, Edward de Bono's How to Be More Interesting guides you through over 70 thought exercises to encourage you to bring out your imagination, bring the most interesting parts of you to the fore and to captivate all who you meet.

Becoming Your Real Self

A Practical Toolkit for Managing Life's Challenges

Brené Brown

Every time we are introduced to someone new, try to be creative, or start a difficult conversation, we take a risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings - we strive to appear perfect. 
 
In a powerful new vision Brené Brown challenges everything we think we know about vulnerability, and dispels the widely accepted myth that it's a weakness. She argues that, in truth, vulnerability is strength and when we shut ourselves off from vulnerability - from revealing our true selves - we distance ourselves from the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. 
 
Daring Greatly is the culmination of 12 years of ground-breaking social research, across every area of our lives including home, relationships, work, and parenting. It is an invitation to be courageous; to show up and let ourselves be seen, even when there are no guarantees. 
 
This is vulnerability. This is daring greatly.

Daring Greatly

Teach Yourself To Think

Tanya Byron

We live in a world fluent in therapy-speak — where every bad day is ‘depression’, every worry is ‘anxiety’, and every disappointment is ‘trauma’. But what if this language, meant to heal, is stopping us from feeling what’s real? 
 
In Your Are Not A Diagnosis, acclaimed clinical psychologist Professor Tanya Byron cuts through the noise with clarity and compassion. Drawing on decades in the therapy room, she shows how misusing the language of mental health hides our true emotions, robs those with genuine conditions of care, and leaves us trapped in labels instead of living authentically. 
 
This is not a book about dismissing distress — it’s about reclaiming it. With nuance and fierce honesty, Tanya argues that sadness, stress, grief and fear are not illnesses to diagnose away but experiences to sit with and move through, best held not by hashtags but by the people around us. Community, not a TikTok trend, is the real therapy room. 
 
For anyone who’s ever wondered if their messy, painful, overwhelming feelings mean they’re ‘broken’, this book offers a lifeline of perspective, agency and hope. And for parents navigating teens who self-diagnose via social media, it’s an urgent reminder to look beneath the therapy-speak and uncover what’s really being said. 
 
Essential, bracing, and deeply human, You Are Not A Diagnosis will change how you understand your feelings, your family, and the conversations we all so desperately need to get right.

You Are Not a Diagnosis

The Therapy-Speak Trap and the Lost Art of Listening to Ourselves

Anna Mathur

You didn’t used to be like this. 
The sharp words, the slammed drawers, the guilt that follows. You tell yourself to hold it together, but somehow, you keep finding yourself back here.Psychotherapist and bestselling author Anna Mathur knows that moment well. One evening, hot and exhausted in her kitchen as her children argued and whined, she felt the heat rise up and spill out in a shout that left her shaken and ashamed. That moment became the spark for this book.What if your anger isn’t bad, and it isn’t something you need to get rid of?For too long, we’ve been told to bottle it up, to keep smiling, to push it down. But anger is normal. Anger is necessary. And when you learn to understand it, it can become one of your greatest allies.In How to Stop Snapping at the People You Love, Anna helps you see rage not as shameful or dangerous, but as a signal pointing to your unmet needs, crossed boundaries and emotional overload. Through gentle insight and practical tools, she shows how to catch it sooner, recover faster, repair more deeply and use its energy for change instead of destruction.Because anger doesn’t mean you're broken, it makes you human. And when you learn to listen to it, it can become your greatest source of clarity, compassion and connection.

How to Stop Snapping at the People You Love (As Well As the Ones You Don’t)

A compassionate guide to rage, regulation and repair

Liam McClintock

Our minds spend little time in the present. They often replay painful memories and chatter internally at up to 4,000 words per minute. They’re easily caught up in cycles of craving, self-criticism, and needless worry. While this may seem normal, there’s a better alternative: a fit mind. 
 
Buddhist monk and tech founder Liam McClintock shares powerful, little-known techniques that enable us to meditate anywhere—whether at home, work, or on the move. Through this training, qualities like presence, vitality, and lasting bliss will become within your reach. 
 
Grounded in 2,500 years of contemplative wisdom and supported by modern science, this is a complete toolkit for beginners and experienced meditators alike. Readers will discover how to: 
 
• Quiet the mind’s excess chatter—going beyond thought entirely 
• Enter profound altered states of consciousness 
• Gain transformative insights into the workings of the mind 
• Experience durable shifts in perception, awareness, and well-being 
 
Discover how a fit mind—one full of clarity, energy, tranquillity, compassion, and joy—is both vital and accessible.
