Inspirational Selections from A New Earth - Oneness with All Life
Inspirational Selections from A New Earth - Oneness with All Life

Review:Excellent content. I would enjoy the book a lot more if it were printed in a pure white background and with a minimalist design that is in tune with Stillness and Awareness of the formless dimension, rather than a highly decorative style reminiscent of children's books. Maybe I'll give my copy to something who enjoys that kind of look. Read more

Why Being Your Whole Self--Not Just Your Good Self--Drives Success and Fulfillment
Why Being Your Whole Self--Not Just Your Good Self--Drives Success and Fulfillment

Review:Not at all what I expected. A relatively quick and engaging read with numerous useful insights on dealing with the non-positive side of our life. " In the failure condition, the optimists were far more likely to write off failure as inevitable. Framing an event as an inescapable failure makes it easier to digest." Should be more than a little for most everyone to take away from this book. One of the few of this genre worth shelving for a reread. Read more

Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics - A 10% Happier How-to Book

Review:Interesting blend of meditation ideas and infomercial for the 10% Happier App. Definately not a hard-core selfhelp book about meditation, more of a chronicle of the author and team travelling promoting the app with interesting meditation pieces interspersed. Read more

Meeting Grief and Loss in a Culture That Doesn't Understand
Meeting Grief and Loss in a Culture That Doesn't Understand

Review:Megan Devine has not only managed to use words when words are nearly impossible to come by, but she somehow brings solace where solace cannot be had and nurturance where one is lost for both the griever and the witness. Read more

A Pioneering Program for Restoring the Wisdom of Your Body
A Pioneering Program for Restoring the Wisdom of Your Body

Review:As a therapist, I can recommend this book to others. It has many useful exercises you can do with clients (if you so choose). The basic dynamics of trauma are explained so it could be useful in identifying trauma symptoms and confirming a mental health diagnosis. Read more

The Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Sourcebook - A Guide to Healing
The Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Sourcebook - A Guide to Healing

Review:This is a wonderful book. After completing one other book on PTSD last summer, I found I was desperate for more help by last Christmas. This book took me further along the healing journey. The cognitive behavioral therapy exercise, eye movement exercise, thought field therapy and life review exercises helped me process my anger and despair more effectively. As a result, I can now see my life in a constructive light (while I await more counselling and EMDR.) Read more

The Emotion Code
The Emotion Code

Review:My daughter was born with fears. She has been SO clingy since the day she was born and even when she would wake up in the morning, she was almost frantic to find me. She had three treatments and she was a new person. All her fears seem to be gone and she is a confident and happy little girl now. She was age 5 when she received treatments. It is nothing short of amazing. Read more

The Anti-Anxiety Food Solution
The Anti-Anxiety Food Solution

Review:Oh my gosh. Really poorly done. Very basic. She suggests a whole diet and then you change it. She refers to another book almost constantly. Suggests you cut out gluten and dairy but doesn't explain why gluten or dairy could affect one's mood. Oh and eat meat, but doesn't show any studies as to why meat would be helpful to mood. Disappointing and now I'm really depressed that I spent the money on this book. Read more
