Today’s greatest health challenges, the so-called diseases of civilization—depression, trauma, obesity, cancer—are now known in large part to reflect our inability to tame stress reflexes gone wild and to empower instead the peaceful, healing and sociable part of our nature that adapts us to civilized life. The same can be said of the economic challenges posed by the stress-reactive cycles of boom and bust, driven by addictive greed and compulsive panic. As current research opens up new horizons of stress-cessation, empathic intelligence, peak performance, and shared happiness, it has also encountered Asian methods of self-healing and interdependence more effective and teachable than any known in the West. Sustainable Happiness is the first book to make Asia’s most rigorous and complete system of contemplative living, hidden for centuries in Tibet, accessible to help us all on our shared journey towards sustainable well-being, altruism, inspiration and happiness.

Whether you're an administrator or library leader concerned about the health and well-being of your team, or a library worker excited to launch a health and wellness movement in your library, you'll find sensible guidance and inspiration in Newman's handbook. As part of their dedication to improving the lives of their patrons, libraries have long offered services, programs, and outreach dedicated to the health and wellness of their communities. There is a growing recognition that library workers themselves are in urgent need of such attention; low morale, and complaints of burnout and a toxic work environment, are only a few of the obvious symptoms. The good news is that by turning inward, libraries can foster wellness in their workplace and make a real difference in the day-to-day lives of their staff. Newman, who has led a popular course on the subject attended by workers from many types of different libraries, here takes a holistic approach to examine why and how libraries should focus on improving the health and wellness of employees. Filled with hands-on advice, examples of successful initiatives, and suggested action steps, in this book readers will learn how to define health and wellness, including its physical, psychological, and social aspects, and why they touch upon nearly everything that happens in the workplace; what a workplace looks like when it strives to ensure the complete physical, mental, and social well-being of workers, and the ways in which this approach to a work environment benefits both the library and the community it serves; the role played by the physical aspects of the workplace, such as the ergonomics of sitting and standing desks, the effects of air quality and smell on worker health and productivity, and noise levels stemming from open plan workspaces; about key policies relating to wages, working schedules, where employees work, and child and elder care; real-world advice on addressing complicated workplace issues like emotional and invisible labor, with a look at the part that burdensome or indifferent policies and practices can play in contributing to compassion fatigue and burnout; ways to make healthy choices for oneself and encourage healthy choices in co-workers and staff; concrete, evidence-based steps that libraries can take to improve workplace wellness; how to make a lasting difference by focusing on one aspect they can change personally and one that they can advocate changing library wide.

Designer Robin Wilson shares tips and tricks to detoxify and beautify your interior spaces and to help you create a more stylish and healthy home. Author Robin Wilson, plagued by allergies and asthma since infancy, has become an expert in Clean Design—creating allergen-reduced home environments that comfort and protect families. Using Wilson’s four principles of design—sustainable, reusable, recyclable, and nontoxic—every room in the home, from attic to basement and entryway to bedroom, can look sensational and stylish while reducing “your wheezing and sneezing.” Clean Design leads to amazing results: fewer allergy symptoms and asthma attacks, easier breathing, and better overall health. Whether building a new home, renovating, or simply updating the design of their current home, Wilson offers suggestions for the best eco-friendly, healthy, nontoxic furniture, wall and floor coverings, and window treatments to dramatically improve indoor air quality and reduce household exposure to dust, pet dander, pollen, mold, dust mites, smoke, household chemicals, airborne toxins, and other allergy and asthma triggers. By making eco-friendly design choices, you will not only protect yourself and your loved ones, but also contribute to the health and sustainability of our planet at the same time. Using traditional solutions, new methods, and some of her grandmother’s secrets, Wilson empowers you to incorporate Clean Design into your home, influencing your lifestyle, increasing your family’s wellness, and proving that “eco-friendly can be beautiful!”
