☆ 8 Books to Help You Drink Less, or Quit Altogether
  + stars: | 2023-09-18 | by ( Hope Reese | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Six months before Kim Kearns quit drinking, she cracked open a book called, “We Are the Luckiest: The Surprising Magic of a Sober Life,” by Laura McKowen. Ms. Kearns, co-host of “The Weekend Sober” podcast, credits the book with helping her quit. When people start to evaluate their relationship with alcohol, they often “collect different prompts and data points,” said Aaron Weiner, a clinical psychologist practicing in Chicago. “Books are one of these data points” that help people realize they might have a problem, he said. We asked more than a dozen addiction experts, sobriety counselors, podcasters and people in recovery to share the books they found most helpful.

☆ The Menopause Canon
  + stars: | 2023-07-18 | by ( Hope Reese | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Each day, around 6,000 women in the United States enter menopause, which officially starts 12 months after a woman’s last period. But perimenopause, the time leading up to menopause, can last anywhere from two to 14 years (the average is around four). “Many women enter into this transition without any information about what may occur,” said Rebecca C. Thurston, a professor of psychiatry and epidemiology at the University of Pittsburgh. Books can help demystify the experience of perimenopause and menopause, but many titles are rampant with misinformation. To help you sort through the options, The New York Times asked nine experts — gynecologists, endocrinologists, researchers and podcasters — to recommend their favorites.

But, with so many options, it’s easy to reach for titles that aren’t meant for beginners, said Sara Lazar, director of the Lazar Lab for Meditation Research at Massachusetts General Hospital. So we asked half a dozen meditation experts — teachers, spiritual leaders‌ and scientists — about their favorite beginner-friendly books. This is, by no means, an exhaustive list, but these titles might help you cultivate a practice. 1.‌ “Mindfulness in Plain English” by Bhante Henepola Gunaratana‌This straightforward and accessible guide, written by the Sri Lankan Buddhist monk playfully nicknamed Bhante G, is a favorite among meditation teachers and scientists alike. Written in 1994, the book presents a clear picture of mindfulness and meditation and provides insights on how to begin a practice.
