by Wayne W. DyerFrom the author of the multimillion-copy bestseller Pulling Your Own Strings, positive and practical advice for breaking free from the trap of negative thinking and enjoying life to the fullest.If you're plagued by guilt or worry and find yourself unwittingly falling into the same old self-destructive patterns, then you have "erroneous zones"--whole facets of your approach to life that act as barriers to your success and happiness.

Alcoholism: New Knowledge and New Responses (Routledge Library Editions: Alcohol and Alcoholism)
by Griffith Edwards Marcus GrantOriginally published in 1977, alcoholism was acknowledged to be a seriously growing problem in many parts of the world. It is a complex disorder with psychiatric, physical, psychological and social aspects, having far reaching harmful effects on the family and society, as well as on physical and mental health of the alcoholic themself. At the time of original publication it had been estimated that in England and Wales 11 out of every 1,000 in the adult population had a serious drink problem, and alcoholism was a major cause of admission to psychiatric and general hospitals. Alcoholism was a medico-social problem of such magnitude that this comprehensive volume, embodying advances in knowledge of causation, treatment and prevention filled an urgent need at the time. Still a major concern today this reissue can be read in its historical context.
Bright Shining: How Grace Changes Everything
by Julia Baird'A powerful book from one of my favorite writers on something we all need more of...and could give more of.' — Ryan Holiday, bestselling author of The Obstacle is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy“Luminous. . . . A work to both devour and savour, Baird has, once again, written a book the world needs now.'”—GuardianFrom the bestselling author of Phosphorescence comes a beautiful and timely exploration of that most mysterious but necessary of human qualities: grace.Grace is hard to define. It can be found when we create ways to find meaning and dignity in connection with each other, building on our shared humanity, being kinder, bigger, better with each other. If, in its crudest interpretation, karma is getting what you deserve, then grace is the opposite: forgiving the unforgivable, favoring the undeserving, loving the unlovable.Sadly, we live in an era when grace is increasingly rare. Our growing distrust of the media, politicians, and each other has choked our ability to trust, to accept, to allow for mistakes, to forgive.What does grace look like in today’s world, and how do we recognize it, nurture it in ourselves and express it, even in the darkest of times? In this luminously beautiful, deeply insightful, and timely book, Baird explores the meaning of grace and how we can cut through negativity to find it today.
But It’s Your Family . . .: Cutting Ties with Toxic Family Members and Loving Yourself in the Aftermath
by Dr. Sherrie CampbellA psychologist offers a roadmap for those looking to break free of toxic family relationships and thrive in the aftermath.Toxic family abuse is always two-fold. The first layer of abuse is the original poor treatment by toxic family members, and the second is someone&’s denial of the ways in which abusers treat and harm them. Loving someone doesn&’t always mean having a relationship with them, just like forgiveness doesn&’t always mean reconciliation. A significant part of healing comes with accepting that there are some relationships that are so poisonous that they destroy one&’s ability to be healthy and function best. But It&’s Your Family is a remarkable account of what it means to cut ties to toxic family abuse and thrive in the aftermath.Inside, Dr. Sherrie Campbell clarifies:· How parents, adult children, siblings, grandparents, and in-laws can be toxic· The difference between flawed and toxic family members· Explaining the cutting of ties to children and others who may not understand· Spiritual and religious views on forgiveness· The definition of cutting ties and what No Contact actually means When readers are able to bring closure to those toxic relationships, they give themselves the space to love those family members from a distance, as fellow human beings, with the knowledge that it is unwise to remain connected. Readers learn how to love themselves in the process and fundamentally change their lives for the better!

Divine Discipline: How to Develop and Maintain Self-Control
by Rhonda Harrington Kelley PhDSelf-discipline is essential to success in all areas of life. Making the conscious choice to do what is morally right takes a great deal of strength.

Noting her personal journey toward spiritual discipline, Kelley offers this thought-provoking, inspirational guide.

More than just a self-help book, Divine Discipline: How to Develop and Maintain Self-Control offers specific guidelines for making positive lifestyle changes toward personal growth.

Through discipline, introspection, and spiritual belief, Dr. Kelley leads the wayward soul to the bounty of the Holy Spirit. Esther Burroughs provides the foreword. A well-known Christian speaker and author, she is on the staff of the Southern Baptist Convention Home Mission Board in the evangelism division.

My Mother/My Self: The Daughter's Search for Identity
by Nancy FridayWhen Nancy Friday began her research for My Mother/My Self in the early 1970’s no work existed that explored the unique interaction between mother and daughter. Today psychotherapists throughout the world acknowledge that if women are to be able to love without possessing, to find work that fulfills them, and to discover their full sexuality, they must first acknowledge their identity as separate from their mother’s. Nancy Friday’s book played a major role in that acceptance. The greatest gift a good mother can give remains unquestioning love planted deep in the first year of life, so deep and anassailable that the tiny child grown to womanhood is never held back by the fear of losing that love, no matter what her own choice in love, sexuality, or work may be. Through candid self-disclosure and hundreds of interviews, Friday investigates a generational legacy and reveals the conflicting feelings of anger, hate, and love the daughter’s hold for their mothers–and why they so often “become” that mother themselves.
Non-Violence and Social Change
