T o say F**k It feels good. To stop struggling and finally do what you wish . . . to ignore what everyone is telling you and just go your own way . . . feels really great. In this inspiring and humorous book, John C. Parkin suggests that saying F**k It is the perfect Western expression of the Eastern spiritual concept of letting go, giving up, and finding real freedom by realizing that things don’t matter so much (if at all). It’s a spiritual way that doesn’t require chanting, meditating, or wearing sandals. And it’s the very power of this modern-day profanity that makes it perfect for shaking us Westerners out of the stress and anxiety that dominate our daily lives. So, find out how to say F**k It to all your problems and concerns. Say F**k It to all the “shoulds” in your life, and finally do what you want–no matter what other people think!

Sleeping Beauty: A Modern Fairy Tale by John Phythyon
Genre(s): Fairy Tales, Folk Tales & Myths, Literature & Fiction, World Literature, Mythology
He wanted to save her. He got it all wrong.
Carl is the only one left. All Beth’s friends were sad when she fell into a coma two years ago at the age of fourteen. But life moved on, and so did they. Except Carl. He still comes to see her. He still visits two to three times a week, talking to her and hoping she will wake.
Her mother, Marie, is insane. She stares constantly through a thick haze of cigarette smoke at Carl whenever he visits Beth, watching him, evaluating, plotting.
Marie knows the truth. She knows why Beth is in that coma. She knows it was Rex, Beth’s father, who did it. She knows he hired a witch to cast a spell on her Pretty Princess until she is old enough to marry, until his hand-picked protégé wakes her with True Love’s First Kiss.
But if whomever Rex chooses can break the curse, then so can Carl. He’s loved Beth since he first met her in Sixth Grade. Marie knows. She has a plan. And maybe she’s not as crazy as everyone thinks.
First, though, she’ll have to convince Carl to believe in magic. Then she’ll have to encourage him to defy Rex. That won’t be easy. Rex hates Carl. He put Beth into that coma to keep Carl away from her. And Rex has a wicked temper.
Marie is determined, though. She’s going to get her Sleeping Beauty back. And Carl is going to help . . . whether he likes it or not.
Can True Love’s First Kiss really break the curse, or are darkness, insanity, and self-doubt too strong?
Set in modern times, “Sleeping Beauty” is a creepy reimagining of the original fairy tale. Much like ABC’s Once Upon A Time, it offers a fresh look at an old story.
It explores what happens when parents go too far to protect their children. All parents struggle deciding when to hold on tightly to their children and when to let go. Rex and Marie get it all wrong. A cautionary tale, “Sleeping Beauty” reminds us there is a fine line between love and obsession, between care and cruelty.

Simply Serene will show you four amazingly powerful methods that will successfully help you to defeat stress, to be fully alert, and to be serene so you can operate at your peak potential.
YOU WILL LEARN
1. How to Calm Down
2. How to Reduce Stress
3. How to Deal with Stress
4. And How to Be Instantly Alert and at Peace Simultaneously. It’s all very cool.
That’s your mission. By the end of this manual -
You will know how to be simply serene at any time.
You will know how to choose between FOUR TIME-TESTED, SURE-FIRE METHODS to get the best personal results in the moment.
You will know how to defeat stress.
You will know how to turn off self-doubt, anxiety, fear, worry, fretting, hopelessness, overwhelm, and depression.
You will know how to pull back from the fight-flight response, thereby allowing you to act from a calm, yet alert state.
You will be able to operate more powerfully.
You will steadily move closer to your peak potential using these four methods.
From a peaceful, calm state, you can take the steps to creating the life you truly love.
A SURPRISE BENEFIT
One of the benefits of being serene may surprise you. When you are still and serene, your creative mind opens up and presents you with the solutions to your problems and helps you to create the life you want. It is wonderful.
You are also more playful. And …
Playfulness is the heart of creativity.
Playfulness is the power for peak performance.
WHAT DO YOU IMAGINE WHEN I SAY SERENE?
Can you imagine you are completely relaxed and yet completely aware? You are breathing slowly and deeply with full attention. The whole world appears different. You feel wonderful. You are mellow, peaceful, content, and conscious.
Some like to think of this as being deeply relaxed while simultaneously being fully awake and alert.
Back in the sixties and early seventies, many young people and some not so young people experimented with mind-altering drugs. The quest to expand the mind was right on target, but the means (illegal drugs) abandoned people to disillusionment and, at worst, ruined lives.
When people use drugs, whether pharmaceutical or illegal, to achieve relaxation or alertness, there are side effects. The Simply Serene Methods don’t have a “druggy” feeling, but generate real serenity from within.
All humans throughout history have explored consciousness. It is our destiny. We call it many things: Heaven on Earth, Enlightenment, Nirvana, Paradise. It is all the same.
The four methods in Simply Serene help you to realize Heaven on Earth.
FEEL IT NOW – AN EXERCISE
Take a few uninterrupted quiet minutes and remember a time of being truly serene and having peace of mind. If no memory comes to mind, imagine a time.
As you go through your day and your week in your imagination, what does your life look like when you are serene?
How does your body feel, what sensations do you have when you are serene?
As you imagine yourself being serene, what setting are you in?
Now, what do you imagine when I say:
* Awake
* Aware
* Rested
* Happy
* Content
* Creative
Take another minute, build up the scene in your imagination, and now imagine yourself feeling and living your life being awake, aware, rested, happy, content, creative, and serene.
As you faithfully do this exercise, you can see how good your life can be.
Remember your mission – having a life you wholeheartedly love.
If this resonates with you and you want to learn How to Calm Down, Reduce Stress, Deal with Stress, and Be Instantly Alert and at Peace, then be sure to get Simply Serene.
