Getting Close to 50? This Book Is A Must ReI ad! Re-Imagine The Second Half Of YOUR Life

Pre-Order NOW

"When you believe that your best years are still ahead of you, you begin to treat yourself like someone worth caring for - because you are. Self care becomes less of a chore and more of a privilege, a daily act of self respect that fuels everything else in your life. It's a mind set that says, I'm not done yet, in fact, my best is yet to come."

(one of my favorite quotes from this book)

How to Reimagine the Second Half of Life: From Midlife Slump to Purposeful Reinvention 

As founder and CEO of Aegis Living, one of America’s most admired senior-living companies, Dwayne J. Clark has spent more than 35 years reimagining what it means to grow older with purpose and wellness. Now, as co-author of The Miracle Morning After 50: A Proven Path to Joy, Vitality and Purpose for Aging Adults (BenBella Books, Dec 16, 2025), with wellness expert Hal Elrod, he turns his deep understanding of longevity and lifestyle into a personal, science-backed blueprint for living vibrantly at every stage. 

You can find out more information on Dwayne Clark at:  https://www.dwaynejclark.com/ 

I am almost done with an Advance Reader Copy of this incredible and yes I mean incredible book by Hal Elrod and Dwayne J. Clark. It is in digital form but I truly need a physical copy as this is something I will be marking up and tabbing pages to go back to daily. 

Never has a book hit so hard for me than this right now. I am in the last year of my 50s or should I say my 60th year of life and I have been making conscious efforts to get the best of the last quarter of my years. The Miracle Morning After 50 has been the perfect companion for where I am right now.

As someone who lost her mother at age 12 I know it is a true privilege to grow older. My mother never got the opportunity and I want to do it with grace and live my best life. 

The Miracle Morning is a life changing practice that has you start the day off on the right foot. You are making yourself a priority and focusing on you!

There are 6 practices that you should do every day and Miracle Morning breaks it into small manageable increments called SAVERS.

Silence  - 5 minutes upon waking

Affirmations - 5 minutes

Visualization - 5 minutes

Exercise - 10 minutes

Reading - 20 minutes

Scribing (journaling) 10 minutes

There is a lot of room for you to decide what this means for you but if needed there are many suggestions depending on where you are in your life. 

There is even an app to help you check things off all 6 parts of the practices. I LOVE it. For the past two days I have been doing the free portion of the app but might ask my husband for the paid version for Christmas. 

This wasn't hard for me to jump into as I do many of these things already. I believe in making conscious efforts to be silent during my day without stimulation. Just me and my thoughts or I pray. While I don't do affirmations per se I am not opposed and enjoy using the app for this adding my own today.  I have never done a vision board but love this idea of visualizing myself being where I want to be in mind and body because I am a firm believer in the mind over body. I do minimal exercise at the moment but do stretch, walk and do breathing exercises but as I get stronger I cannot wait to add light weights. I read over scrolling or TV daily so this is easy and I journal every day. I am all in and can't wait to see how these 6 savers change my life over the course of the month.

There is so much to love about this book and have already suggested it to three people in my life and now I am letting you all know about it.

Perfection or Pressure? Recognizing Anxiety in High-Achieving Kids

 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE



PHILADELPHIA, Penn., Nov. 6, 2025 — Balancing academics, athletics and friendships can push even the most capable kids to their limits. For parents, the real challenge lies in recognizing when healthy ambition crosses the line into anxiety — when the drive to succeed begins to harm a child’s overall well-being.

Some signs are more subtle than others, says school counselor Jennifer Licate, so it’s important to recognize both the physical and behavioral clues. Frequent headaches, stomachaches, or digestive issues before a big game or test may point to anxiety — but less obvious signals, like withdrawing from activities they once loved, can be just as telling.

“You know your child best. You know their history. You know their disposition and the things they like to do. If your child has always loved going to soccer practice and suddenly doesn’t want to go, starts complaining about it — that’s a really big sign,” said Licate, whose chapter book My Anxiety is Messing Things Up centers on a hardworking student athlete named Oscar who feels the relentless pressure to be perfect — in school, in sports and in friendships.

Oscar’s drive to succeed earns him praise in the classroom and on the field — but also leaves him wracked with anxiety. Unable to sleep and increasingly irritable, Oscar lashes out at his friends. When a teacher invites him to a school support group, Oscar must decide if he’s willing to seek help and try new strategies for relief.

Licate expertly combines a fast-paced, relatable story with guided questions and activities at the end of each chapter. These tools help young readers explore their own feelings, while giving parents, teachers and counselors a structured way to start meaningful conversations about anxiety.

“I wrote the book to help children understand anxiety,” said Licate. “Not all symptoms look the same, and not all strategies will work for everyone. My hope is that kids learn there are multiple tools they can try to feel more confident and less overwhelmed.”

The release comes at a time when educators are reporting increased stress levels among students. According to recent studies, more than one in three children experience anxiety symptoms, and sleep disruption is one of the most common side effects. Licate, who has worked as a school counselor for more than a decade, believes early intervention and open discussion can help prevent anxiety from becoming debilitating later in life.

“Children do not need to wait until anxiety is debilitating before using strategies to help their symptoms,” Licate added. “Using strategies to deal with anxiety can help children and anyone reduce their symptoms so they can live their best lives, work toward achieving their goals and feel confident.”

What? My Hay Is Sprouting!

We always get a few bales of hay that my husband uses on the front steps to decorate for Fall but we have never had it sprout actual grass before. 

This year he got it from Lowes. I usually get from local farms but he took care of the lugging this year. The farm bales are usually much bigger than he wants.

Has this ever happened to you? I've never seen this before. It looks pretty. I don't mind. 

Each one has a seed attached to the bottom so I am assuming some grass seed got into the bales somehow.

New Fairy-Tale Collection Shares Magical Lessons on Love for Young Readers

 

Order On Amazon


 

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 28, 2025 — In her enchanting new release, Animal Fairy Tales Book Ten: Touch of Love, Milana Anderson—a Moonbeam Gold Medalist and contender for two Guinness World Records—celebrates the many ways love shapes, heals and inspires.

 

From a python who learns that love should never squeeze too tightly, to star-crossed sweethearts whose hearts mend even the fiercest anger, to a hippo and pig who prove that love can be gloriously messy (and delightfully muddy), each tale in Touch of Love twirls between laughter and longing, reminding young readers that every kind of love has its own magic.

 

This milestone tenth volume in Anderson’s beloved Animal Fairy Tales series features 25 short stories for readers ages 6–11, each revealing a different face of love—from loyal to forbidden, unrequited, fateful and more. Her imaginative animal characters wrestle with emotion, courage and kindness in stories that leave children laughing, learning and looking at love anew.

 

“Parents often ask me why children are so captivated by my fairy tales. My answer is simple: children recognize themselves in my stories,” Anderson said. “They find their emotions on every page and walk away feeling seen, heard and empowered. Fairy tales can hold a child’s hand and whisper, You’re not alone. You’re becoming.

 

Across her 177 original fairy tales featured in her 10-book series, Anderson transforms animals into storytellers of the human heart—boxing bears, ice-skating lions, dancing rabbits—each teaching lessons of empathy, courage and kindness. Other volumes in the series include Touch of Adventure, Touch of Joy and Touch of Gratitude.

 

“I’m not just creating bedtime stories,” she added. “I’m building bridges. Fairy tales, when written with emotional honesty, are more than entertainment. They’re powerful, transformative tools. They heal. They influence. They gently guide children through the complexities of growing up.”

Pfizer Whistleblower's Story Unveiled: Becky McClain's "Exposed" Memoir Hits Shelves October 28



NEW YORKOct. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a gripping new release from Skyhorse Publishing, molecular biologist and whistleblower Becky McClain lays bare her harrowing journey in "Exposed," a book that promises to shake the foundations of corporate accountability and government oversight within the biotech industry. Set for wide release on October 28, "Exposed" chronicles McClain's years-long battle against pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, following her allegations of unsafe laboratory practices and the retaliation she says she endured for speaking out.

The book opens with a powerful foreword by consumer and safety advocate Ralph Nader, who frames McClain's story as a chilling example of systemic failure. "No general description of this book can convey the horror and details of what Becky McClain and her husband, Mark, endured at the hands of Pfizer, enabled over the years by collusion with government officials," Nader writes, setting the tone for a narrative that intertwines scientific insight with painful personal trauma and legal struggle.

McClain, a former research scientist, became a central figure in a high-profile whistleblower case after raising concerns about viral vector safety in Pfizer's labs. Her claims, which included a life-threatening illness acquired from exposure to genetically engineered viruses and facing workplace retaliation, led to a legal battle that drew national attention and sparked debate over biotech safety standards and employee rights.

McClain's voice resonates throughout the pages. "I've written this book as a witness to a system gone bad — a system that breaks people bad — a system that threatens the public's health, workers' rights, and America's right to freedom of speech," she states, underscoring the urgency and personal cost of her journey.

"Exposed" is more than a memoir—it's a call to action. Through meticulous documentation and emotional candor, McClain invites readers to examine the intersection of science, ethics, and power. The book also explores the broader implications for workers in high-risk industries and the mechanisms that protect—or fail to protect—them.

With endorsements from trade experts and authors, "Exposed" offers readers a rare look inside the biotech industry's hidden corners, blending scientific insight with emotional depth and legal drama. It is a story of resilience, accountability, and the fight for transparency in an era of rapid technological advancement in the 21st century.

"Exposed" is poised to become a touchstone in discussions about whistleblower protections and corporate transparency. As the biotech industry continues to evolve, McClain's story serves as a stark reminder of the human cost of scientific advancement––and the ongoing risks to worker safety as well as public health in a world still marked by the pain and uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Exposed" is available now on Amazon.com and in bookstores.

Hallmark Magic Meets Medical Drama in Psychologist’s New Book, The Doc’s Christmas Miracle

 

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 23, 2025 — Bestselling author and forensic psychologist S. A. Stolin delivers a warm and cozy blend of heart, hope and holiday magic in her new release, The Doc’s Christmas Miracle.

 

“Christmas has always struck me as the perfect backdrop for transformation — it’s a season of hope, miracles and rediscovery,” said Stolin, whose background in psychology brings a unique authority to her characters and their relationships.

 

Set in the small town of Crescent Hill, The Doc’s Christmas Miracle combines the charm of a Hallmark holiday romance with the high stakes of a medical drama. When a Christmas Eve snowstorm traps patients and staff inside the local clinic, two dedicated doctors must join forces to save lives — and perhaps open their hearts to second chances. Secrets surface, forgiveness is tested, and the line between science and miracle begins to blur.

 

More than a holiday love story, The Doc’s Christmas Miracle explores resilience, forgiveness and the surprising ways healing can arrive — even in the middle of life’s hardest seasons. Perfect for fans of Hallmark holiday movies, uplifting romances or small-town dramas with heart, Stolin’s latest book is a cozy escape brimming with snow, sparkle and a touch of Christmas magic.

 

“At its core, this story is about healing — not just the patients at the clinic, but the doctors themselves, who are searching for love, forgiveness and second chances,” Stolin added.

My Amateur Review


If you are a fan of Christmas romance, second chances, medical drama and a murder mystery this is for you. 


Doctor Moore is a researcher with a controversial memory machine that he is trying to prove can help Alzheimer patients remember the missing pieces of their memory.  Doctor Pace is a Psychiatrist who works at the facility that Dr. Moore was enlisted to try his machine at. 


The two who start off as rivals soon find themselves falling and uncovering long buried secrets that were never meant to be uncovered. 


I loved most of the characters especially the patients. They made the book even more enjoyable.  Their spunkiness had me chuckling. As for Dr. Moore and Dr. Pace. There were times I felt for each of them although as a fan of a slow burn romance I had a difficult time appreciating their journey to each other.  


The mystery was very enjoyable and something I was not expecting when I started reading. I highly recommend! 


About the Author

S. A. Stolin is the bestselling author of Act It Out: 25 Expressive Ways to Heal from Child Abuse and six works of fiction published by respected independent presses. A former actress with credits in television, film and stage, she brings a vivid sense of drama and humanity to her stories. Her upcoming release, The Doc’s Christmas Miracle, launches a new series set at the Sam Heard Clinic, where romance, resilience and healing intertwine.

 

As a licensed psychologist and expert on trauma recovery, Stolin is known for weaving emotional authenticity into her fiction, creating layered characters. Her work has been featured in national magazines, and she has been a guest speaker on overcoming adversity and finding empowerment through creativity.
