The Official Spirit of America.


1789 is one of the most significant dates in history. It is the year, obviously, the French Revolution kicked off with the nation’s peasants demanding ‘Liberté! Egalité! Fraternité! and led to the rolling of the heads of the French ruling class. Rather wonderfully, it’s also the year that America emancipated the name Bourbon from the French and began distilling the whiskey that would soon become the official spirit of the United States. History’s funny like that.

Precisely 235 years later, bourbon is having a big boom all around the world, its popularity never more in full swing. From high-profile celebrity brands to bestselling bottles, famous drinkers to high volume sales, bourbon is the next renaissance in spirits, following hot on the heels of the premium gentrification of rum, vodka, tequila and gin.

The Little Book of Bourbon is America’s official spirit distilled into more than 175 shots of booze-infused facts, stats, trivia, history, tips, recipes, advice and much more. An absolute must-own companion for bourbon connoisseurs. Please read responsibly.

‘All bourbon is whiskey, but not all whiskey is bourbon.’
Fred Minnick

A gift or self-purchase for anyone interested in spirituality and wellness. An introduction to aural healing, this little book offers explanations of the seven subtle bodies (or layers) of auras and how to identify the ones that are stagnant. You will learn to read and interpret the health of your auras as well as cleanse, protect, balance and heal them. And because your mood, health, the food you eat, your environment and the positive or negative energy around you can all affect your auras, these are also addressed, as is associated energy work with crystals, meditation, visualization and rites and rituals.

Learning more about your personal energy fields will help you understand yourself better and improve areas that are weakened, whether that’s health, fear, grief, home life, career or romance.

SAMPLE QUOTE:
‘The aura given out by a person or object is as much a part of them as their flesh.’ Lucien Freud

SAMPLE FACT:
A simple way to cleanse your aura is to close your eyes, picture a white light radiating from within your body outwards, and flowing through all the subtle bodies. Think of it as a bright light clearing away and dissipating the dark clouds.

The virtue of compassion is universally valued. Derived from the Latin ‘com’ and ‘passio’ and meaning ‘to suffer together’, practising compassion can strengthen your relationships, lessen the grip of negative thoughts, and increase emotional resilience. But how can we lean into loving kindness and cultivate compassion every day?

The Little Book of Compassion offers guidance from some of the world’s greatest minds in the art of responding to ourselves and others with compassion and kindness in times of difficulty. For true compassion allows us to diminish our indifference to the suffering around us.

‘We must learn to regard people less in the light of what they do or omit to do, and more in the light of what they suffer.’
– Dietrich Bonhoeffer

‘Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.’
– Princess Diana

‘Our primary purpose is to help others. And if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.’
– Dalai Lama
