The Breaking of Time:

Chronicles of the Arvynth

MARIEL HEMINGWAY'S BOOK CLUB SELECTION

One father's desperate choice fractures time and reality itself.

To everyone around him, Daniel Ward is a mild-mannered accountant, devoted husband and father in a quiet New England suburb. But when his ten-year-old son chases a runaway soccer ball into the street, straight into the path of a speeding truck, Daniel does the impossible. He freezes time.

That single act of defiance exposes the secret he's buried for decades. His magic awakens the ancient order he once betrayed, the Arvynth, a brotherhood of immortal sorcerers devoted to stillness and death, determined to silence the world.

As his carefully constructed life unravels, Daniel must protect his family while evading the brotherhood that hunts him. Every second he steals from time feeds the void that seeks to consume it, threatening not only the people he loves but reality itself.

Forced to choose between sacrifice and survival, Daniel discovers the truth: sometimes the loudest act of love is defiance.

The Breaking of Time is a race against eternity, a supernatural thriller that fuses urban fantasy and family drama in a story about the noise of life, the cost of power, and one father's desperate fight to keep the world from falling silent.

Upgrade You: Simple Changes, Powerful Energy, Infinite Potential

    

Upgrade You:

Simple Changes, Powerful Energy,

Infinite Potential

Upgrade You This New Year: Why THIS Is the Book You Need to Become Your Best Self (Without Losing Your Mind)

The New Year is here — that magical time when we all suddenly decide we’re going to be better humans. We buy fresh planners, new pens, overpriced water bottles, and tell ourselves things like:

“I will wake up at 5 AM.”
“I’m giving up sugar, dairy, bread, Netflix, and negativity.”
“I’m going to meditate for 45 minutes every morning.”

And by January 14th?
We’re eating cereal in bed, scrolling TikTok, and wondering why self-improvement feels like boot camp for the emotionally exhausted.

But what if upgrading yourself didn’t mean suffering, sacrificing joy, or becoming some robotic version of perfection?

Enter Upgrade You: Simple Changes, Powerful Energy, Infinite Potential — the self-improvement book that actuallygets it.

---

Why “Upgrade You” Is the New Year Book You Didn’t Know You Needed

Unlike those intense, guilt-inducing “fix your whole life by 5 PM” manuals, Upgrade You shows you how to become your best self through small shifts, big laughs, and actual real-life changes you can stick to.

No gurus.
No pressure.
No shame for choosing tacos over treadmill time.
Just honest, funny, practical wisdom from Dr. Rob Alex.

Inside the pages, you’ll learn how to:

✔ Make simple adjustments that elevate every part of your life
✔ Upgrade your energy without burning out
✔ Add metaphysical magic to everyday actions
✔ Build confidence and self-worth that last
✔ Stop chasing perfection and start celebrating progress
✔ Laugh at your mistakes instead of crying into cheesecake
✔ Create a life you love, without needing a yoga mat made of unicorn fur

This book isn’t here to “fix” you — you’re not broken.
It’s here to help you upgrade you… with humor, heart, and a whole lot of freedom.

---

New Year, New Energy: Why NOW Is the Perfect Time to Upgrade

January isn’t just a month — it’s a vibe.
It’s a metaphysical reset button wrapped in sparkly energy and fresh-start momentum.

You’re already thinking about changes.
You’re already imagining a better version of yourself.
And “Upgrade You” shows you EXACTLY how to do it without the burnout, shame, or 42-step morning routines that require a small team of assistants.

This New Year, don’t promise yourself you’ll be perfect — promise yourself you’ll be better, a little at a time.

That’s where the magic happens.
That’s where YOUR infinite potential wakes up.

---

Why Readers Are Loving “Upgrade You”

➡ It’s fun.
➡ It’s relatable.
➡ It’s profoundly honest.
➡ It feels like talking with your funniest, most encouraging friend.
➡ It gives you tools you can use TODAY — not someday.

Readers aren’t just reading the book — they’re laughing, reflecting, clearing out old energy, shedding outdated habits, and upgrading everything from their mindset to their relationships.

---

What Makes It Different From Every Other New Year “Change Your Life” Book?

Realness. Humor. Humanity. And metaphysical goodness.

This book acknowledges:

• You’re busy

• You’re human

• You’ve tried self-improvement before

• And you’re tired of feeling like you're “not enough”

Upgrade You flips the script.
It says you are enough — and now it’s time to build on that foundation in small, powerful steps.

Like cleaning your inner energy junk drawer.
Or learning to say “no” without writing a four-paragraph apology.
Or celebrating tiny wins that add up to big transformation.

---

The New Year Is Coming… and So Is the New YOU

This is the year you stop fixing yourself and start upgrading yourself.
This is the year you accept your quirks, honor your energy, raise your standards, and step into your potential without pressure or perfectionism.

Let the Universe see you shine.
Let your life expand.
Let your spirit recharge.

And let Upgrade You guide you through the journey — with laughter, heart, and a whole lot of “you’ve got this.”

Thoughts on my Thoughts VI: The TALES That Wagged This Veterinarian

    

Thoughts on my Thoughts VI:

The TALES That Wagged This Veterinarian

Author: Dr. Walter R. Hoge

A Philosophical Adventure Through the Heart of Modern Faith, Doubt, and Self-Discovery

What happens when a single idea refuses to stay small?

In Thoughts on My Thoughts VI, Dr. Walter R. Hoge once again invites readers into his introspective world—a place where questions are not meant to be answered quickly, but wrestled with, revisited, and refracted through experience. This sixth installment in his reflective series is a masterclass in mental excavation, where the simplest observations spiral into profound meditations on politics, morality, God, the nature of belief, and the paradoxes of our modern world.

Through a sharp and unflinching lens, Dr. Hoge contemplates everything from media bias and scientific hypocrisy to divine silence and personal authenticity. His writing—unfiltered, unapologetic, and fiercely intelligent—is not for the passive reader. It’s for the curious, the restless, the seekers who crave dialogue with someone unafraid to challenge cultural dogmas or question sacred institutions.

Provocative, fearless, and fiercely introspective—Thoughts on My Thoughts VI challenges you to rethink everything. – MainSpring Books

But underneath the philosophical rigor and social critique, there’s an unmistakable heartbeat: the voice of a man who still dares to hope. A man who, despite life’s noise and injustice, still believes in asking: What is truly good? What is truly true?

This is not just a book of essays. It’s a confrontation. It’s a mirror. It’s a friend whispering, “You’re not alone in wondering.”

Il est enfin possible de vieillir debout !

Depuis ces cinq dernières années des publications scientifiques dans des revues prestigieuses se sont accumulées démontrant que le vieillissement n’est pas une fatalité inscrite dans nos gènes. D’ailleurs aucun gène du vieillissement n’a été identifié après séquençage complet du génome humain. Il est donc apparu à la lumière de ces travaux que les signes du vieillissement sont une maladie qui peut être prévenue, voire être réversible. Dans cet ouvrage je vous propose des « recettes » déjà éprouvées, non pas pour vous faire vivre éternellement mais vivre le plus tard possible en bonne santé.

English Translation: 

It is finally possible to grow old while staying on your feet!

Over the past five years, scientific publications in prestigious journals have accumulated, demonstrating that aging is not an inevitable fate written into our genes. In fact, no “aging gene” has been identified, even after the complete sequencing of the human genome.

These studies have revealed that the signs of aging are actually a disease—one that can be prevented and even reversed.

In this book, I offer you proven “recipes,” not to make you live forever, but to help you live as long as possible in good health.

The New PSYCHOLOGY: A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...: Abbreviated Edition (B&W)

   

 

The New PSYCHOLOGY:

A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...: Abbreviated Edition (B&W)

    480 Pages, 8.5X11”, Fully Illustrated These are the bits and pieces that make up a deep understanding of how our mind works. Welcome to the deep woods.

    Psychology controls the biology of our brain. At the witch trials in Salem, when the accused were brought into the court, adrenaline and cortisol would have shot into the bloodstream of the spectators. Neurotransmitters would have surged through their brain. Their very brain waves would have shot up from 12 to 40 cycles per second. A P300 brain wave would have screamed “ALERT”. Their heart jumped.  A chill went up their spine. The girls began to shriek “Witch, Witch!”

    We know this because the same thing happens in America today among those watching a Hollywood horror movie about witches, zombies, demons, murder and more. In varying degrees this is basic to understanding how our brain works in dealing with anxiety, depression, politics, love, sex, interpersonal relations, and life.

    PSYCHOLOGY CONTROLS THE BIOLOGY OF OUR BRAIN. Knowing how this works is essential to understanding how our mind works. The failure to understand that has led to the media's preoccupation with claiming it is all in your DNA or biochemistry; a media preoccupied with the magic words of DNA and biochemicals in the brain cannot grasp a deeper level of understanding.

        In psychology, students flock to our courses, eager to learn the lessons of life, how their mind works, and how to understand others. They want to understand what the world is all about. Yet what they learn is often that they must memorize vast amounts of data and studies that make little sense in how to apply what they learn to the real world. They memorize what they need to know to pass a test, not what they need to know to understand life.

    We begin with Important recent studies at MIT, Harvard, and the National Science Foundation that found that we are failing to get across the most important issues of any science. As Prof. Sadler put it, "we try to teach maybe ten times more than what kids can actually learn in our science classes." The prestigious PEW Research found that America is 24th in the world in science. Why?

    "Examples are not another way to teach, they are the only way to teach." Einstein

    Sometimes psychologists have made a name for themselves by criticizing another point of view and establishing their own as superior (behavioral, developmental, cognitive, perceptual, neuropsychology, etc. etc.).  No other science does this (except maybe, theoretical Physics and 11 string theories). Yet all have found some important pieces. What we need is to put the known pieces together.

    Psychology cannot be a science if we are just a gaggle of conflicting ideas. We are something more; a Unified Field where each, contributes to understanding the next.

ORIGIN OF MIND: The Conscious Mind and How Life Hard-Wires the Brain

  

ORIGIN OF MIND:

The Conscious Mind and How Life Hard-Wires the Brain

________________________________________

AI, or Artificial Intelligence, scans the internet, picking up relevant facts, images, and ideas, and presents them in an organized form. The brain has its own version of AI that scans our memories, selects relevant information, and presents reality to our conscious mind. Learning does not just give the brain information to use in processing, as a computer; it changes the brain itself so completely that it creates a new reality in the brain. From this reality, our conscious mind "sees" what the brain has been “hard-wired” to perceive by our earliest experiences. This applies to language, ideas, religion, politics…

Anthropologist Clyde Kluckhohn, tells of a two-year-old American boy who grew up only able to speak Chinese. English made no sense to him. His understanding, his beliefs, and his philosophy were all Chinese, not American. He could easily interpret those strange writings that made no sense to us. How could this be?

This sets the stage for a journey through your own mind. Fully illustrated 

throughout with challenging 3-D illusions and ideas of beauty, this book takes us through a new perspective on how words color our very perception of reality, from the point where consciousness and cognition of our mind kick in, to the mind of the study of how easily any stimulus, even pain, can be associated with any response, even pleasure. This accounts for the 700 named phobias and the 547 sexual paraphilias identified by Anil Aggrawal's study.  

The first ideas embedded in our brain by others, like the language we speak, become the criteria by which we judge all things. All of this is learned through a process so subtle and so unconscious that it is taken for granted. We see this daily in our politics, our religions, our sports, and our interpersonal relationships.

The Thread Of Theseus: Exploring Consciousness Through Quantum Entanglement, Epigenetics, and Reincarnation

   

 

The Thread Of Theseus:

Exploring Consciousness Through Quantum Entanglement, Epigenetics, and Reincarnation

Exploring Consciousness Through Quantum Entanglement, Epigenetics, and Reincarnation

What makes you you — and can that essence persist through change, across time, or even across lifetimes?

In The Thread of Theseus, a bold and thought-provoking exploration of consciousness, identity, and transformation, the classic philosophical puzzle of the Ship of Theseus becomes the entry point to a rich synthesis of modern science and ancient wisdom. Bridging physics, biology, and spirituality, this book offers a radical new hypothesis: that the self is not fixed or isolated, but a living, evolving pattern — an entangled self — woven through time, memory, and matter.

Blending accessible science writing with deep philosophical inquiry, The Thread of Theseus explores:

• The paradox of personal identity through the Ship of Theseus and Grandpa’s Axe
• How epigenetics reveals that experience can alter biology — and shape the self across generations
• The mysteries of quantum entanglement and what they suggest about connection beyond space and time
• The possibility of reincarnation as a continuity of consciousness beyond the physical
• A unifying theory of the Entangled Self, tying together ancient questions with modern discoveries

With engaging explanations, real-world examples, and imaginative hypotheticals, this book invites readers into a profound rethinking of what it means to be alive, aware, and connected.

Whether you're a seeker of scientific insight, philosophical depth, or spiritual understanding, The Thread of Theseus offers a compelling journey through the deepest layers of the human experience.

Ideal for readers interested in:

• Consciousness studies
• Philosophy of self and identity
• Quantum physics and metaphysics
• Reincarnation and spiritual continuity
• Epigenetics and generational psychology
• Interdisciplinary explorations of mind, matter, and meaning
