The Book of Awakening: Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have

Philosopher-poet and cancer survivor, Mark Nepo opens a new season of freedom and joy–an escape from deadening, asleep-at-the wheel sameness–that is both profound and clarifying. His spiritual daybook is a summons to reclaim aliveness, liberate the self, take each day one at a time, and to savor the beauty offered by life’s unfolding. Reading his poetic prose is like being given second sight, exposing the reader to life’s multiple dimensions, each one drawn with awe and affection. The Book of Awakening is the result of his journey of the soul and will inspire others to embark on their own. Nepo speaks of spirit and friendship, urging readers to stay vital and in love with this life, no matter the hardships. Encompassing many traditions and voices, Nepo’s words offer insight on pain, wonder, and love. Each entry is accompanied by an exercise that will surprise and delight the reader in its mind-waking ability.The time when we walk in the shadow of death is, ironically, a time when we feel illuminated by life’s true meaning. Poet and philosopher Mark Nepo has firsthand experience with this mystery–he had cancer. During his arduous recovery, he sought inspiration and guidance that would reflect his growing appreciation of life. Although this daybook is exactly what Nepo longed for as he struggled with a difficult disease, , it can be appreciated by all readers.

This collection of essays, one for every day from January 1 through December 30, offers a poet’s sensibility and sensuality and gives the reader Nepo’s well-harvested wisdom. “Water reflects everything it encounters,” Nepo writes in a May 5 essay. “This is so commonplace that we think water is blue, when in fact it has no color…. But the water, the glorious water everywhere, has taught me that we are more than what we reflect or love. This is the work of compassion: to embrace everything clearly without imposing who we are and without losing who we are.” After each entry, Nepo offers a short list of suggestions or questions to help carry the essay into the day. There are many inspirational daybooks out there. What sets this one apart is the mature poet’s voice rising from a seasoned soul. –Gail Hudson

Self-Empowerment: Have the Life You Want!

If you read only one self-help book this year, make it “Self-Empowerment: Have the Life You Want!”  It’s the “portable therapist” to help you close the gap between how life is, and how you would like it to be, in important areas of your life, such as your Mental Health, Health, Career, Relationships, Finances, Family, Community, and Spirituality.

Learn how to achieve optimal living, take charge of your health, make progress in your career (both satisfaction and income), improve your relationships (romantic, family, and work), learn the seven ways to take care of your financial self, create a family of choice (not just your family of origin), establish a positive role in your local community, and achieve a satisfying and joyous spirituality. 

Case studies based on an amalgamation of actual experiences in clinical practice end each chapter, giving you examples (disguised for confidentiality of client information) of how to apply the principles of self-empowerment to real life. 

“Self-Empowerment: Have the Life You Want!” is based on Ken Howard’s more than 18 years of counseling, psychotherapy, and coaching in his private practice office and his experience with thousands of clients (individuals, couples, and groups) in hospitals, agencies, and community organizations. 

While many self-help books are written by well-meaning, non-professional individuals, this one is written by an actual licensed psychotherapist who is currently in practice in California.  Learn how his experience working with clients just like you, solving problems just like yours, can help you…have the life you want!

The Indigo Children: The New Kids Have Arrived

This book is a must for the parents of unusually bright and active children. Indigo children are those who display a new and unusual set of psychological attributes and show a pattern of behaviour generally undocumented before. In this groundbreaking book on the Indigo Child, international authors Lee Carroll and Jan Tober report the information of this increasingly documented and world-wide phenomenon and tell you how to identify this behavioural pattern and guide you on how you, as a parent or teacher of these children, can help them realise their amazing potential not forgetting their spiritual needs or specific health issues.Do you think your child is special? Well, perhaps he or she is! Self-help professionals Lee Carroll and Jan Tober have collected essays by dozens of doctors, counselors, and other childhood experts that seem to document the arrival on earth of a newly evolved species of human kiddie referred to here as an “indigo” child. The 10 most common traits are: 1.) They come into the world with a feeling of royalty. 2.) They have a feeling of deserving to be here. 3.) Self-worth is not a big issue. 4.) They have difficulty with authority by ritual or without explanation. 5.) They simply will not do certain things. 6.) They get frustrated with systems that don’t require creative thought. 7.) They often see better ways of doing things. 8.) School is often difficult for them and they can seem antisocial. 9.) They will not respond to guilt-trip discipline. 10.) They are not shy about letting you know what they need.

If your little angel/devil fits this pattern and you are pulling your hair out trying to relate, you may want to read this book before resorting to Ritalin. –P. Randall Cohan
