Julia McCutchen interviews Joseph Sestito 
Thursday 6th May at
16:00 BST / 11:00 EST
Writing and living are at their best when you are in the present moment, living with intensity and exuberance.
Yet, to a greater or lesser degree, most of us are caught in the grips of what the Buddhist traditions call the “Four Worldly Addictions”. Learning how to break free from their grip reduces your suffering, and liberates your creativity and happiness.
Blending contemporary insights from psychotherapy with ancient insights from Eastern and Western Philosophy, Joseph Sestito will show you how to unlock your creativity to apply to your writing as well as to your relationships and to your in life in general.

 When it comes to understanding the psychology of purchasing books and other products on-line, Amazon stands out as a real success story. The innovative and customer-centred approach that Amazon has employed to create and maintain its dominance in internet retailing is impressive.

There are also links to other related items such as DVDs connected to a specific author or book so that customers have plenty of choice for following up their interest further.

 As we head deeper into spring here in the UK, the glorious sunshine is bringing forth new life all around us. Swathes of brown trees and hedges are turning green as the young leaves emerge from every branch and stem. What has appeared through the winter to be a network of lifeless sticks is now the foundation of a whole new cycle of life.
I love the parallels of the creative process with nature. Every aspect of writing your book and achieving your vision of successful authorship can be aligned with the flow of nature to great effect.
Just like the leaves on the trees, right now is a wonderful time to breathe new life into your writing dreams and activities.
