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.

The New Tools of Rest & Recovery

Mariel Buqué

'Blending science, therapy and personal anecdotes, Break the Cycle empowers readers to disrupt harmful patterns from the past and cultivate new cycles of love and strength.’ Vex King, bestselling author of Good Vibes, Good Life 
 
How to pass on strength not pain to those you love. 
 
When a physical wound is left unhealed, it continues to cause pain and can infect the whole body. When emotions are left unhealed, they similarly cause harm that spreads to other parts of our lives, hurting our family, friends and colleagues. Eventually, this hurt spreads further, affecting entire communities and families across generations. 
 
This is intergenerational trauma. It can lead us to become people-pleasers, co-dependent in relationships and even estranged from our families. The wounds are complex and continue to invade our minds, bodies and spirits long after. 
 
In Break the Cycle, Dr Mariel Buqué delivers the ground-breaking guide to healing inherited trauma. Weaving scientific research with practical exercises and stories from her therapy room, Dr Buqué will help you understand how trauma is inherited from one generation to the next, break the cycle and disrupt the flow of intergenerational trauma with therapeutic exercises, and encourage you to pass on strength - not pain - to future generations. 
 
With a holistic approach to healing that has been absent from the field of psychology for too long, Break the Cycle will help you shift intergenerational trauma to intergenerational abundance.

Anna Ferguson

'Understanding our nervous system and somatic healing hold the key for many of us in overcoming anxiety - Anna's book shows us the way.' 
Chloe Brotheridge - bestselling author of The Anxiety Solution. 
 
Harness the power of your vagus nerve to reduce stress, overcome anxiety and release past trauma 
 
Feeling anxious and disconnected are signs of a nervous system that's out of balance. Something as small as a curt message from our boss can be perceived by our bodies as a threat to life. By understanding our physiological stress response, we can override and heal our emotional response, and fix the behaviours sabotaging our health and happiness. 
 
In The Vagus Nerve Reset, Anna Ferguson offers somatic therapies alongside the science of Polyvagal Theory, to help us train our nervous system to stop overreacting, and start responding more calmly to day-to-day stressors and heal past experiences. Anna provides practical, immediate ways to unlock a mindful connection with our bodies, helping us become more aware of our nervous system and notice what derails us - and transform the way we respond to every kind of challenge in life. 
 
By tuning into our vagus nerve we can gently shape our nervous system for greater resilience. This will have profound long-term positive influence on our overall health and wellbeing, providing relief from debilitating anxiety and symptoms of chronic illness. 
 
Including a programme of mindful movement, breathwork and meditation, journalling, and more, this comprehensive guide allows us to find anchors of safety amongst the chaos, reclaim a sense of control and step into the most confident, resilient and grounded version of ourselves.

'Innovative and transformational' - Gabor Maté 
'Changed my life' - Rangan Chatterjee 
 
The empowering new way to discover your multifaceted mind. 
 
Do you long to break free from a stuck part of you - the inner critic, 'monkey mind', a bad habit or an addiction? What if there was a way to approach those aspects of you, to free you from the constant inner struggle and find true healing? 
 
In this groundbreaking international bestseller, Dr Richard Schwartz reveals that we are each born with an 'internal family' of distinct parts within us. Some of our parts can become trapped in destructive patterns, but learning to relate to each of them with curiosity, respect and empathy can vastly expand our capacity to heal. 
 
The Internal Family Systems (IFS) model will help you challenge the destructive behaviour of these parts, turn the ego, the inner critic and the saboteur into powerful allies, and allow you to return to a more whole and harmonious 'Self'.

'This book has shaken me awake. I gulped it down in one sitting, then sat and cried... [But] hope is a character on every single page' - Christie Watson 
 
------------------- 
 
I was alive when I should have been dead. In another movie, I missed the sliding door and departed this wondrous life long ago. Like so many others, I had to learn to live not knowing if I have a tomorrow, because, statistically, I didn't. At the age of 35, I was blindsided by incurable bowel cancer - I was given less than an 8 per cent chance of surviving five years. Five years later, my only option was to live in the now and to value one day at a time. 
 
-------------------- 
 
How do you turn your mind from a negative spiral into realistic and rebellious hope? How do you stop focusing on the why and realise that 'why not me' is just as valid a question? 
 
When Deborah James was diagnosed with incurable bowel cancer at just 35, she learned a powerful lesson: the way we respond to any given situation empowers or destroys us. And with the right skills and approach, we can all face huge challenges and find strength and hope in the darkest of places. 
 
How to Live When You Could Be Dead will show you how. It will awaken you to question your life as if you didn't have a tomorrow and live it in the way you want to today. By harnessing the power of positivity and valuing each day as though it could be your last, you'll find out, as Deborah did, that it is possible to live with joy and purpose, no matter what.

Izabella Wentz

Overcome fatigue, brain fog and anxiety, and gain energy, clarity and peace of mind with Dr Izabella Wentz, internationally acclaimed thyroid specialist and #1 New York Times bestselling author. 
 
What were you doing in your life before you got sick? This is a common question Dr Izabella Wentz asks her clients when trying to get to the root cause of symptoms such as low energy, sleeplessness, caffeine dependency and poor memory. More often than not, she found they developed their symptoms after a period of acute or chronic stress: starting a new business, having a baby or living through a global pandemic - these can all destroy our once-resilient stress response. 
 
Since Dr Wentz was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis at the age of twenty-seven, she has sought to help her clients eliminate symptoms of stress, fatigue and burnout, and manage problems that conventional medicine has failed to address. In Adrenal Transformation Protocol, Dr Wentz tackles adrenal dysfunction, the body's inability to produce essential hormones when it mismanages stress, and shows that by making a few small dietary and lifestyle changes, you can see profound improvement within weeks. 
 
In this simple four-week programme, Dr Wentz will help you identify your adrenal triggers, balance your stress response and build up resilience to prevent stress from overwhelming your adrenals in future.

This interactive workbook from the experts behind the New York Times bestseller Burnout offers up the tools and tips to help get you there. 
 
We all want to achieve wellness. But wellness is not a state of mind or a state of being - it's a state of action. It's the freedom to oscillate through all the cycles of being human: from effort to rest, sleeping to waking, autonomy to connection. Burnout, on the other hand, happens when we get stuck. 
The Burnout Workbook will help you notice when you get stuck and show you how to get unstuck - inside you'll find: 
engaging questions 
exercises to practise 
visual guides 
stories 
quotes and more! 
 
Feel better, minimize stress, manage your emotions, and live a more joyful life. Whether or not you've read Burnout, this workbook will help you learn what true wellness can look like in your life.

Advice and Exercises to Help You Unlock the Stress Cycle

Ed Winters

Our choices can help alleviate the most pressing issues we face today: the climate crisis, infectious and chronic diseases, human exploitation and, of course, non-human exploitation. Undeniably, these issues can be uncomfortable to learn about but the benefits of doing so cannot be overstated. It is quite literally a matter of life and death. 
 
 Through exploring the major ways that our current system of animal farming affects the world around us, as well as the cultural and psychological factors that drive our behaviours, This Is Vegan Propaganda answers the pressing question, is there a better way? 
 
 Whether you are a vegan already or curious to learn more, this book will show you the other side of the story that has been hidden for far too long. Based on years of research and conversations with slaughterhouse workers and farmers, to animal rights philosophers, environmentalists and everyday consumers, vegan educator and public speaker Ed Winters will give you the knowledge to understand the true scale and enormity of the issues at stake. 
 
 This Is Vegan Propaganda is the empowering and groundbreaking book on veganism that everyone, vegan and sceptic alike, needs to read.

Food Isn’t Medicine

Natalia Spierings

If you had a heart attack would you go to a personal trainer to treat your chest pain? If you had cancer would you seek treatment from a journalist who reviews chemotherapy drugs? No you wouldn't. You would go to a cardiologist or an oncologist - an expert with vast clinical experience and knowledge. So why do we go to a beauty counter to deal with our skin problems? Or get skincare advice from beauty bloggers or facialists via Instagram or YouTube? 
 
Consultant Dermatologist Dr Natalia Spierings is here to shake things up! Drawing on a decade of work helping thousands of people achieve great skin, she will empower you to navigate the confusing world of skincare so you never get fooled into buying hundreds of pounds of skincare products again. If you have a problem with your skin - whether it is pimples, pigmentation, overly dry skin, large pores or whatever - it is a skin abnormality and cannot and will not be corrected with a three-step skincare regime you buy at a department store. 
 
Think of this book as your personal consultation with Dr Spierings and let her give you the information you need to start getting the best from your skincare - without hurting your wallet!

Thomas Erikson

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Surrounded by Idiots 
 
Are you overshadowed by the narcissists in your life?

In this thought-provoking, sanity-saving book, Thomas Erikson helps you understand what makes narcissists tick and, crucially, how to handle them without wearing yourself out in the process. With the help of the behavioural model made famous in Surrounded by Idiots, Erikson provides all the tools you need to manage not just the narcissists around you but everyday narcissism as well - itself becoming more widespread in this age of social media. Engaging and practical, Surrounded by Narcissists will help you free yourself from narcissistic agendas so you can pursue a happier, more fulfilling and successful life.
