your infinite potential for healing and moving through life’s
challenges? If so, The Power of Infinite Love & Gratitude by
Dr. Darren R. Weissman will help you view your life from a new and

and stress. This work reveals the journey of your spirit and sheds

master your life based on these key lessons: The universe is infinite;
you have free will—a choice with every experience; everything
is interconnected; judgment is prohibited; the greatest power is

you must take responsibility for your life; life has meaning; and
much more.

Gail Larsen - Transformational
Speaking
Transformational
Speaking literally transformed me as I worked my way through the
book. Filled with the heart-wisdom of a woman who knows her territory
and exercises that help you go straight to the core of who you are,
this book will transform you too . . . if you let it.
This is true
if you are a beginning speaker or a speaking pro. Gail makes you
think, first about yourself: what are my innate talents and gifts;
what is my core message? Our lives contain the answers. That alone
is worth much more than the price of the book.
And just when
you believe there is nothing left she has to tell you she comes
in with: know your audience, "relive don't remember",
the nuts and bolts information of the business of speaking.
This is a real
human being demonstrating what she is writing about. Do I need to
say more? Yes! I strongly urge you to buy the book. Read Transformational
Speaking if you want to find your voice, be your most powerful self,
contribute your best gifts to the world and, of course, be a transformational
speaker. |

Gary
Zukav - The
Seat of the Soul
Gary Zukav's
American Book Award-winning The Dancing Wu Li Masters masterfully
introduces the layman to quantum and particle physics, as well as
Einstein's relativity theories. With a similar dose of amiable,
easy-to-understand prose, Zukav guides readers into the spiritual
realm in his bestselling The Seat of the Soul.
Zukav questions
the Western model of the soul, alleging that the human species is
in the midst of a great transformation, evolving from a species
that pursues power based upon the perceptions of the five senses--"external
power"--to one that pursues power based upon perceptions of
the soul--"authentic power." He believes that humans are
immortal souls first, physical beings second, and that once we become
conscious of this transformation--once we align our personalities
with our soul--we will stimulate our spiritual growth and become
better people in the process. This insightful, lucid synthesis of
modern psychology and new-age principles has been described as the
"physics of the soul." Who better to explain such heady
concepts than Gary Zukav

Diane Zimberoff - Breaking
Free from the Victim Trap: Reclaiming Your Personal Power
This new millennium
has ushered in the Age of Freedom. A time to break out of old, self-defeating
patterns and claim our personal power. A time to face the past,
heal the wounds, and move into our full potential. We've all known
what it's like to be a victim. Now it is time to break free and
thrive. This book is for anyone who has experienced the Victim Trap:
(1) people trapped by guilt in compulsive use of alcohol, food,
drugs, tobacco, gambling, spending, sex, or codependent relationships.
(2) people burdened by stress-related illness, who have "taken
on" the problems of those they are trying to help. (3) psychologists,
doctors, therapists, nurses, those in the helping professions who
may be feeding the Victim Trap by "rescuing" those seeking
their services. This book chronicles the rage, the frustration,
and most of all the guilt that keeps people in impossible "no
win" situations. And it offers a clear, step-by-step approach
to leading people out of their self-defeating patterns into new
liberating freedom. Diane Zimberoff's Breaking Free from the Victim
Trap guides victims attempting to communicate their despair to their
therapists, and guides professionals in treating the victim client.

Eckhart
Tolle - A
New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose
According to
Tolle, who assumes the role of narrator as well, humans are on the
verge of creating a new world by a personal transformation that
shifts our attention away from our ever-expanding egos. This idea
is well realized through Tolle's remarkably well-paced narration.
Naturally, the author understands his material so thoroughly that
he is able to convey it in an enjoyable manner, but Tolle's gentle
tone and dialect begs his audience's attention simply through its
straightforward approach. Something about this reading just seems
profoundly important, whether one agrees with the material or not,
and listeners' attention is sure to be captured within seconds of
listening to Tolle's take on the universe in which we live. |

| Kerry
Patterson, Joseph Grenny, Ron McMillan, Al Switzler - Crucial
Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High
Mainly about
resolving conflicts and influencing people, this useful guide covers
every conceivable aspect of talking with others. People hear facts
and stories and turn them into shared knowledge when they're not
attacked or overpowered--in other words, when they feel safe. No
mushy mental health lesson, the program does a stellar job of explaining
many types of communication errors and describing the best ways
to achieve mutual purpose. The authors have exceptional ideas about
moving toward healthy solutions in a variety of business and personal
realms. Anna Fields gives a perfect reading--emotionally bright
but still allowing the lesson to retain its practical, straight-talking
nature. |

Michael
E. Gerber - Awakening
the Entrepreneur Within
“A business
without a dream is like a life without a purpose.”
—Michael Gerber
These words
have been defining the life of Michael Gerber, bestselling author
and international small business guru. He created E-Myth Worldwide
in 1977 to transform the way that small business owners grow their
companies. Now he's created In The Dreaming Room as a place where
entrepreneurs and future entrepreneurs come to discover how to make
their dreams a reality.
In Awakening
the Entrepreneur Within you are invited into the Dreaming Room,
where your own entrepreneurial dreams will come alive and become
reality. Michael will help you shape your dream into a viable, economically
successful company! As he writes: “It is time to dream. It
is time to care about something bigger than you. It is time to imagine
something sorely needed in the world—the world you live in—that
somebody would pay to have. It is time to look around you and ask
yourself, 'What's missing in this picture?'”
If you see something
missing in your world, it's time to start dreaming. Let Michael
Gerber welcome you to the Dreaming Room. |
