The award-winning New York Times bestseller about the extraordinary things that can happen when we harness the power of both the brain and the heart
Growing up in the high desert of California, Jim Doty was poor, with an alcoholic father and a mother chronically depressed and paralyzed by a stroke. Today he is the director of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education (CCARE) at Stanford University, of which the Dalai Lama is a founding benefactor. But back then his life was at a dead end until at twelve he wandered into a magic shop looking for a plastic thumb. Instead he met Ruth, a woman who taught him a series of exercises to ease his own suffering and manifest his greatest desires. Her final mandate was that he keep his heart open and teach these techniques to others. She gave him his first glimpse of the unique relationship between the brain and the heart.
Doty would go on to put Ruth’s practices to work with extraordinary results—power and wealth that he could only imagine as a twelve-year-old, riding his orange Sting-Ray bike. But he neglects Ruth’s most important lesson, to keep his heart open, with disastrous results—until he has the opportunity to make a spectacular charitable contribution that will virtually ruin him. Part memoir, part science, part inspiration, and part practical instruction, Into the Magic Shop shows us how we can fundamentally change our lives by first changing our brains and our hearts.
Through these travels, she experienced a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing, which ultimately led her to a life dedicated to humanitarian efforts, meditation for PTSD relief workers and world peace. Scaramucci reflects on the motivations that drove his ambitions and shares his feelings about President Trump, expressing his concerns about political corruption and the decline of the middle class.
It also has a smooth and sleek design that complements the iPhone 12's aesthetics. In addition to protection, the screen cover by Magic John also offers enhanced privacy features. It features a unique privacy filter that restricts the viewing angle, making it difficult for others to see the contents of the screen from the sides.
Into the Magic Shop Jim Doty
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, many were overwhelmed with stress, anxiety and depression. While this epidemic of stress has been growing over the past decade, it has been exacerbated by the pandemic and the divisive nature of political discourse. As a result, many people feel disconnected, inauthentic, and unhappy, while questioning the source of their unhappiness when they presumably have “everything”—an absence of compassion, for oneself and others, is often the source of the problem.
Many of us don’t understand the nature of self-compassion nor the power of compassion to improve our lives and alleviate our suffering. By entering the “Magic Shop”, Jim will share his wisdom and introduce a variety of techniques to change the course of one’s life and share his own lessons learned through the exchange of untold stories of his guests. He will interview authors and experts in the fields of philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, spirituality and religion, as well as individuals with unique points of view. He will also engage his listeners by answering their questions and also at times interview listeners who are willing to share their own stories of challenge and hardship.

Reviews for "The Magic John Screen Cover: A Superior Alternative to Other iPhone 12 Screen Protectors"
1. Natalie - 2 out of 5 stars
I was very disappointed with the iPhone 12 screen cover by Magic John. Firstly, the cover was not a perfect fit for my phone. It left gaps on the sides which made it look shabby and ineffective. Secondly, the cover was misleadingly advertised as anti-scratch and shatterproof. However, within a week of using it, I noticed multiple scratches on my screen. It also did not protect my phone from a minor drop as it shattered on impact. Overall, I would not recommend this screen cover as it did not live up to its claims.
2. Mike - 1 out of 5 stars
The iPhone 12 screen cover by Magic John was a complete waste of money. It claims to be easy to install, but it took me over 30 minutes to get it on properly. Once it was finally on, I noticed that it made the touch screen less responsive. I had to press harder or multiple times to get any response from the phone. This defeated the purpose of having a screen protector in the first place. Additionally, the cover developed air bubbles within a week, making the screen look messy and unprofessional. Avoid this product if you value a good touch screen and clean look on your iPhone.
3. Sarah - 2 out of 5 stars
I had high hopes for the iPhone 12 screen cover by Magic John, but unfortunately, it fell short in many areas. Firstly, the installation process was a nightmare. The cover was not adhesive enough and kept peeling off from the edges. It also attracted fingerprints and smudges like crazy, making it frustrating to clean constantly. Moreover, the clarity of the screen was compromised. The cover gave a hazy effect to the display, making it less enjoyable to use. I ended up removing it after a week as it was more of an inconvenience than a protective measure. Disappointed with this purchase.
4. Alex - 3 out of 5 stars
While the iPhone 12 screen cover by Magic John provided decent protection against scratches, I had a few issues with it. Firstly, the cover reduced the clarity of the screen. The images and text appeared slightly blurry, which was a letdown. Secondly, it did not fit perfectly on my phone, leaving a small gap on one side. This made the cover look uneven and less protective. Lastly, the touch sensitivity was slightly affected. I noticed delays in responses and had to tap harder than usual. It's an average screen cover, but not worth the price in my opinion.
