Tómale una selfie a tu alma: Cómo mirar dentro de ti y ser tú mismo
by Marcelo RittnerSi pudieras verte desde fuera, sin filtros, ¿te reconocerías? En una sociedad que prioriza las apariencias sobre la espiritualidad, donde se valora más el éxito económico que el bienestar emocional, cada vez estamos más lejos de saber quiénes somos realmente. Cuando no alcanzamos los estándares, cuando no obtenemos los likes que tanto deseamos, esto nos causa angustia y pesar, que poco a poco destruyen nuestra autoestima y dañan la forma en la que nos relacionamos con la gente a la que amamos y con nosotros mismos. Pero no todo está perdido. En este libro aprenderás a verte con tus propios ojos, los más amorosos que encontrarás, y descubrirás que todo lo que te hace diferente no es un defecto, sino la prueba de que eres una persona única e irremplazable. Este libro ofrece una serie de reflexiones necesarias y urgentes sobre la forma en que priorizamos los distintos aspectos de nuestra vida cuando atendemos más las apariencias externas que las necesidades internas. Descubre por qué debemos procurar nuestra dimensión espiritual tanto como la física; por qué es importante estar en buenos términos con nuestro ser interior antes de preocuparnos por agradar a los demás, y cómo encontrar nuestro propósito en la vida, en vez de imitar los que otras personas intentan imponernos. Prólogo de Alejandra Llamas

Tomorrow I'll Be Slim: The Psychology of Dieting (Psychology Revivals)
by Sara GilbertWhy do so many people try dieting, only to fail? What distinguishes those who succeed from those who do not? Are fat people really any different from thin people? What makes us eat, and how do we stop eating? And how can dieting trigger problems with eating normally? Originally published in 1989, Sara Gilbert discusses these questions in Tomorrow I’ll Be Slim, and draws on what is known about the psychology of eating, overeating, and weight control to dispel a number of popular myths about dieting. She shows how unsuccessful dieting can lead to new problems with eating and weight control. She points out that long-term success in slimming has more to do with individual factors such as a dieter’s expectations, self-confidence, or social and family circumstances than with ‘will-power’; and as much to do with how a diet is managed as with the content of a diet sheet. She suggests ways in which people who want to be slimmer can make a realistic assessment of their need to diet. She explains how individuals who seriously need to lose weight or change the way they eat might draw up effective strategies for themselves and prepare for the inevitable difficulties we all face whenever we try to change old habits. Finally, she addresses the problems of taking the emphasis off dieting and examining our attitudes to a slim figure as the key to happiness itself.

Toning: The Creative Power of the Voice
by Laurel Elizabeth KeyesToning is an ancient method of healing, which I hope will be recognized and used with new understanding now that we have more scientific explanations for it. It does not depend upon faith, nor belief in the method, any more than these are necessary to our use of electricity to provide light and energy in our daily living. There appear to be certain natural flows of energy in our bodies and if we recognize them and cooperate with them, they benefit us. Toning is not limited to one's religion, or lack of it. It does not require one's belief. Apparently it is not a "gift" but something available to anyone who goes through the mechanics of letting the voice express itself in a natural way. Anyone who can groan can Tone and experience its benefits. There is no mystery about Toning. It can be understood through material science, physiology and psychology as well as the most ancient concepts of man's relationship to his God. Please try it.

Too Busy Not to Pray
by Bill HybelsFor over two decades Too Busy Not to Pray has stood as a classic on prayer, helping Christians all over the world slow down to draw near to God.During those years, the world certainly hasn't slowed down. If anything, the pace, intensity and number of distractions have only increased. Brokenness and pain seem to have increased as well, with news of civil war, poverty, broken families and sex-trafficking touching us daily. The urgent need for prayer is clear, but busyness still keeps many of us from finding time to pray.Two truths haven't changed in all these years: God is the same powerful, just, holy God he's always been; and true prayer—prayer that changes us and allows us to participate in God's work in the world—can't happen on the fly. So Bill Hybels once again offers us his practical, time-tested ideas on slowing down to pray. Revised throughout and including a new introduction and new chapter on prayer and compassion for the world, this twentieth-anniversary edition of Too Busy Not to Pray calls both young and old to make prayer a priority, and broadens our vision for what our eternal, powerful God does when his people slow down to pray.
Too Busy Not to Pray: Slowing Down to be with God
by Bill Hybels Lavonne NeffMost of us have trouble finding time to pray. There's church and school and neighborhood and job and friends and recreation. And then the crises hit! Time for prayer seems an impossible luxury. As a pastor, Bill Hybels knows hundreds of people with schedules like this. Yet in his own life he has made the hard discovery that prayer doesn't happen on the run. He decided he was too busy not to pray. Hybels's accessible introduction to prayer has already helped over 400,000 readers develop a rich and regular prayer life in the midst of life's busyness. Now, in this revised and expanded 10th anniversary edition, he includes new insights from his years of ministry and his own spiritual journey. He shows how to slow down to pray, listen to God, respond to what we hear, practice the presence of God and overcome prayer barriers. His fun and practical book offers the resources we need for growing, ongoing experiences in prayer. About the Author Bill Hybels is pastor of Willow Creek Community Church in the Chicago suburbs, where over 15,000 attend each weekend.

Hybels has written a number of books, including Honest to God, Becoming a Contagious Christian, Making Life Work and Too Busy Not to Pray.
Too Close For Comfort: Exploring The Risks Of Intimacy
by Geraldine K. PiorkowskiCountless experts offer us advice on how to create the "perfect relationship," fostering the unrealistic expectation that forming an intimate bond will be a painless experience. Unfortunately, few experts are willing to confront the powerful challenges and emotions inherent within close relationships today. In contrast to other intimacy books, Too Close for Comfort vividly describes the surprising dangers, damage to self-esteem, inadequacies, and immaturities that characterize the contemporary state of romantic intimacy. Too Close for Comfort compassionately explores the risks and misunderstandings that occur within many intimate relationships. Romantic partners tend to hurt each other not only by insensitivity and neglect, but also by criticism, abuse, and betrayal - most of which spring from insecurity. Dr. Piorkowski, a noted consulting psychologist and educator, focuses on the vulnerability both partners experience in intimacy due to the emergence of strong, unrealistic needs that are almost impossible to satisfy. The author contends that people avoid the perils of intimacy by donning one or more defensive "masks" - ranging from acting superior to mysterious, comical to withdrawn, self-sufficient to dependent - in an effort to protect themselves from emotional exposure. Presenting a fascinating range of clinical examples, she sensitively depicts the fears of intimacy that limit contact, namely psychological concerns about loss of control or autonomy, feelings of disappointment and abandonment, or of being attacked and made to feel guilty. Depicting women's reliance on verbal expression to achieve an emotional connection versus men's dependence on physical contact, Dr. Piorkowski brilliantly elucidates the complex barriers to intimacy, especially the chasms of misunderstanding created by vast sexual differences and attitudes. While this book is unique in its exposition of the dangers in intimacy, its message is not pessimistic.

Too Perfect
by Allan Mallinger Jeannette DewyzeFor many of us, perfectionism can bring life's most desired rewards. But when the obsessive need for perfection and control gets in the way of our professional and emotional lives, the cost becomes too high. Although many of us appear cool and confident on the outside, inside we are in emotional turmoil, trying to satisfy everyone, attempting to direct the future, and feeling that we are failing.In TOO PERFECT, Dr. Allan Mallinger draws on twenty years of research and observations from his private practice to show how perfectionism can sap energy, complicate even the simplest decisions, and take the enjoyment out of life. For workaholics or neat freaks, for anyone who fears change or making mistakes, needs rigid rules, is excessively frugal or obstinate, TOO PERFECT offers revealing self-tests, fascinating case histories, and practical strategies to help us overcome obsessiveness and reclaim our right to happiness.From the Trade Paperback edition.
Too Perfect: When Being in Control Gets Out of Control
by Allan E. Mallinger Jeannette De Wyze[From The Front Flap.] The rewards of perfectionism are obvious: success, financial security, the respect of friends and colleagues. But, inevitably, perfection comes at a price- too often, the loss of intimacy, emotional authenticity, and self-esteem. The tendency toward perfectionism and a host of related behaviors are hallmarks of the obsessive, a personality style that contributes to an outward appearance of poise, confidence, and strength but inwardly can cause anguish, suffering, and turmoil. The result of more than ten years of clinical research and observations from Dr. Allan Mallinger's private practice, Too Perfect helps identify the destructive patterns obsessives can unwittingly fall into, as well as the enormous emotional toll such behavior exacts on the obsessive and on friends and loved ones. From the compulsive worrier to the endlessly orderly "neat freak" and the driven workaholic, Dr. Mallinger shows how a disproportionate need for control-and an overwhelming fear of the uncertainty that exists in uncontrolled situations-can lead obsessives to adopt paralyzingly rigid roles almost like armor against life's uncertainties. But in ruling out the unexpected, these protective roles too often end up depriving the obsessive of emotional closeness, leisure time, an overall feeling of well-being-the very things the obsessive strives to ensure by virtue of his or her "flawless" performance in life. Fortunately, assures Dr. Mallinger, change is possible for even the most stubbornly resistant obsessive. Through both extensive case histories and specific suggestions for behavior modification, Too Perfect illustrates the road to change and offers hope to people who have sacrificed their right to happiness to their need to be right-and those who love them.
