Arrested as a spy by the Nazis in 1942, Christopher Burney was held in solitary confinement for 526 days in a prison in Paris. This book is his account of how he managed not only to maintain his mental and emotional health but to develop the resilience he later needed to survive in Buchenwald concentration camp. A psychological masterpiece.

I started blind in Paris on a one-way ticket to "make it" as a professional model. After months of fruitless auditioning, on pluck and providence, Guy Bourdin considered one of France's most famous fashion artists and photographers, took one concerted look at me and booked me for 6 months at French Vogue. From his photos and legacy, my image is now in museums worldwide.Then contracted as a model with Eileen Ford, who brought me from Paris to New York, exuberant and riding high on the energy, I broke both arms pedaling a bike down Fifth Avenue to a Mademoiselle shoot. Always intent on "Showing Up," I went to the Ralph Lauren show the very next day, as I was cast to walk the runway and sadly had to observe instead, double-casted. This immediately sparked my advocacy for model protection, and I was one of the first to advocate for emergency insurance. When privacy on set for models became a reoccurring issue, I used my voice and championed those privacy rights along with Jerry Hall.In my next "stage," I stood on my head to audition for The Bristol Old Vic Theatre School where I graced the same boards as Sir Daniel Day-Lewis and Sir Anthony Hopkins. While still modeling and acting, I raised two very young children, living a very full householder life. I happened to be the daughter-in-law of Laura Ashley who created a fashion empire and left us a legacy championing women, a reason you often saw Princess Diana wearing Laura Ashley.Hopefully, my stories of being poked, provoked, and confronted, which eventually led to surrender, change, and elevated awakening, will resonate with your experiences and provide guidance and support as you find a way in and through your challenges to make your life full of love, humor, and forgiveness, compassionately honoring yourself, others, and the planet more carefully and intimately. Let us meet and greet each other with love along the way, blending our hearts, communities, and paths into One.

Gentle and practical inspiration for getting the most out of your walking. More of us than ever have discovered walking, both as a means of exercise and to escape the strains of daily life. But in our time-poor society we can feel pressure to see and feel results in every step we take. Gill Stewart, a fitness professional and walking expert, teaches us how to harness the real power of walking by fully engaging with the benefits of spending time outdoors and progressing our walks further - beyond simply measuring our steps, speed or miles. Walk This Way focuses on 'total body walking' - a unique holistic approach drawing on every element of fitness and wellbeing. Not only do we master the basics, such as which muscles to use to avoid injury, how to plan routes and how to stay safe, but Stewart also shows us how to add different elements to our walks each day to ensure we always return home feeling like we've gained some results or reward. You'll feel inspired to strike a pose, enjoy the dawn chorus, perform a fitness drill or even brew a wild tea! It's about keeping the joy in walking and not letting it become a chore.
