Thomas W. Phelan
Parentmagic, Inc., 2004
YOU WILL SEE THE CHANGE
I ordered the audio tapes and listened to them at work. Once I was finished with the whole series I started counting immediately and after two days my 3 year old knew she wasn't going to be able to get away with her past behavior. I say past bacause we have been using the system for a month and we have a whole new child. It is challenging in front of people and in public but you have to stick ...

You Can Heal Your Life (Gift Edition)246 reviews
Louise Hay
Hay House, 1999
Entry level emotional healing and core spiritual beliefs.
This is a gorgeous book, and it makes a fantastic gift! It makes a great introduction to ease one into spiritual avenues and mind/body/spirit healing aspects without all of the new-age nonsense.
Anyone on the advanced spiritual level will find this book trivial except for the emotional healing affirmations in the rear of the book. Those are priceless to have around the home, and their ...

The Power of Intention278 reviews
Wayne W. Dyer
Hay House, 2005
Great Read
Interesting read and application of the force of intention in the universe. Dyer explains this force as an energy that you can reach for and gives true stories on how you can connect and how to use them in your daily life.. This resembles to me The Law of Attraction, the universal law that says through your energy and thoughts you attract what you want. A good book on this subject and how to ...

On Writing786 reviews
Stephen King
Pocket, 2002
Compelling narrative, excellent advice
Back when I began reading books on writing by established writers, I did it out of a hankering to become a creative writer. As the scales fell from my eyes and I realized that would only happen if I became the host body for a truly talented spirit, I found I still enjoyed reading writers on the theme of their craft. I've read excellent books on the topic by Anne Lamott, John Gardner, Brenda ...

Anne Lamott
Anchor, 1995
Finally someone who tells it the way it really is!!
I am a Christian and and writer, and Anne Lamott is the best I have found out there writing on both subjects. You might not agree with something she says but if you stop, think about it, really let it sink in, she usually hits it right on the mark. Reading her book has truly inspired me and helped me to continue to write against all odds. I am going right now to download another Anne Lamott ...

Management Take Notice
Execution is a must read for all Executives. So many in management have trouble making decisions for fear of the Old Boy Network politics. Larry Bossidy would have none of that, and changed out his Executive staff until he had one's who would EXECUTE!

When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times119 reviews
Pema Chodron
Shambhala, 2005
Just read it
There are many beautiful flowers to be found in this small book.
I have learned speed-reading and normally read books pretty fast.
This one, though, has so many poetic nuances in the language, so I actually enjoyed reading it slowly aloud to myself.
Try it!
I don't find the book to be as much about specifically difficult times, more as insights about life itself.
The difficult times a ...

Setting Limits with Your Strong-Willed Child : Eliminating Conflict by Establishing Clear, Firm, and ...95 reviews
Robert J. MacKenzie Ed.D.
Three Rivers Press, 2001
What a Relief!
This book was such a help. As a compliant parent of a very strong willed, hot headed 4 year old I was wearing myself out with all the work it was. I was even a director of a shelter that taught kids and parents behavioral modification and I felt I was really failing. The book normalized my sons' limit testing, showed me how to change my techniques in dealing with him and we have begun to see ...

This book is simply amazing. Foster does such a great job putting the disciplines into words that are applicable in our daily lives and easy to understand and apply. I am doing it for a Bible study, which has been great for weekly readings. I love it more and more each week. I recommend it to everyone looking to challange their walk and grow spiritually. So good!
