Mental Health
Review:Dr. Brogan is a genius for compiling this information in such a compelling and clear way. This information should be required reading for physicians and patients dealing with depression or any sort of mental complaints. Actually, I think anyone would benefit from at least being exposed to a different way of thinking about health that doesn't involve just popping a pill and thinking everything will be better. If you were raised like me on the Standard American Diet, then finding a normal using li... Read more
Review:Too good and too practical book! It addresses every possible issues, one may face, and address them very well, providing the most practical solutions/guidelines!
Must read for anybody who thinks, they are not achieving at par with their capabilities, more so, because of confusion about what to choose, what really interests and like. Read more

Review:This book brings a topic that most would rather not talk about into the light. Throughout reading this I found myself wanting to talk more about addiction and depression and help spread the conversation throughout my community. It really impacted me and in a way made me had to do some reflecting of my own that lead to me realizing that depression, addiction, and everything that comes with it is not something that is taken as seriously as it should be and that people are afraid of admitting that ...

Review:Why is this book important when there are so many excellent resources - including Sher's other books? Because if you happen to be a Scanner, and if you always felt vaguely - or NOT so vaguely - uncomfortable about not settling into one interest or one perfect career, then this is the validation you've been looking for. And if you get nothing more than the realization that you are not alone out there, well, in my book that's a lot.
Of course - since I'm currently a coach focusing on transi... Read more
Review:If you're into anecdotes and numerous stories as entertainment, great. Unfortunately, very little of his examples illuminated how one goes about discovering talents and passion in work. I find that his sequel fell short of that goal as well. Read more
Review:This ground-breaking book significantly changed my life! Having struggled with chronic fatigue for over 15 years, this book uncovered the missing link in my healing journey. I recently attended one of Mark’s Inherited Family Trauma workshops, and discovered I strongly identified with the history of women in the Middle Eastern culture who were victims of genocide and oppression. During the workshop, I was dealing with an excruciating back pain that dissipated once I witnessed and felt the truth... Read more
Review:This book provides a well-organized look at the way in which our "attachment hunger", as Halpern names it, motivates us to stay in intimate relationships which may or may not be healthy for us. As a Ph.D. student in Clinical Psychology, I found this book to be a welcome bridge between the traditional theories of attachment and my actual life experiences. It was also a wonderful aid in my personal quest to form an identity based not on a "significant-other", but upon myself and my comfort with b... Read more
Review:I was excited to receive this book from the publisher to read in exchange for my honest review but I had no idea I would be so greatly impacted by the contents. I never believed I was someone who suffered from depression, and I really haven't "suffered" with it - but I could relate to some of the ways Michelle talked of it. I had "down days" I would call them and there were days I didn't understand why I felt so "blah" and after reading through this book, I can see all those days were magnified ... Read more
