Deliver Me From Negative Emotions: A Guide To Controlling Your Emotions And Finding Peace In The Midst of Storms (Negative Self Talk)

If we want emotional peace and well-being we have to work at it. We have to set boundaries and standards. We have to learn to put our emotional health first. And that begins with understanding whats pushing our buttons and how to control those triggers so that we don’t allow people or circumstances to control and destroy our peace. Negative self-talk factors greatly into your emotional health. For many of us what we say to ourselves when we are stressed either tends to be negative or working against us. Its important that we learn to think positively so that we negate the negative self talk and stop building barriers to our own success.

A Sense of Place: Great Travel Writers Talk About Their Craft, Lives, and Inspiration (Travelers’ Tales)

In A Sense of Place, journalist/travel writer Michael Shapiro goes on a pilgrimage to visit the world’s great travel writers on their home turf to get their views on their careers, the writer’s craft, and most importantly, why they chose to live where they do and what that place means to them. The book chronicles a young writer’s conversations with his heroes, writers he’s read for years who inspired him both to pack his bags to travel and to pick up a pen and write. Michael skillfully coaxes a collective portrait through his interviews, allowing the authors to speak intimately about the writer’s life, and how place influences their work and perceptions.

In each chapter Michael sets the scene by describing the writer’s surroundings, placing the reader squarely in the locale, whether it be Simon Winchester’s Massachusetts, Redmond O’Hanlon’s London, or Frances Mayes’s Tuscany. He then lets the writer speak about life and the world, and through quiet probing draws out fascinating commentary from these remarkable people. For Michael it’s a dream come true, to meet his mentors; for readers, it’s an engaging window onto the twin landscapes of great travel writers and the world in which they live.

Lord Deliver Me From Negative Self Talk 2: Unleash Your Power (Inspiration For Women)

Can you imagine what would happen if we as women united toward the common goal of eliminating Negative Self Talk from our lives? How much of an impact could we make in our own lives and the lives of the people we touch on a daily basis. We have tremendous influence in the home; corporate world; the church; and society as a whole. But some how we have begun to lose sight of power and influence that we posses. God gave us the ability not only to birth life, but to speak life to every circumstance and situation that we face. It’s time for us as women of God to embrace our purpose and power. Its time to stop bashing others and talking bad about ourselves. We have to take our words and communication more seriously. Just as Eve was a gift to Adam, we are a gift to the body of Christ. Its time for us to unleash the power of God’s word in our lives.

Talk To Me Like I’m Someone You Love: Flash Cards for Real Life (Tarcher Inspiration Cards)

Based on Talk to Me Like I’m Someone You Love, described by Glamour.com as “the most crucial relationship advice book since Men Are from Mars,” this card deck has the power to stop an argument dead in its tracks. Talk to Me Like I’m Someone You Love: Flash Cards For Real Life feature sixty-four written statements that hold the power to express what we wish we could say to the person we love, but for which we can’t find either the right words or the right tone in which to say them. On the back of each beautifully designed card are “field notes” from the author that explain when, why, and how to use the statement. These cards include statements such as:

Right now, I don’t need a lecture. I need your love. I’m afraid to be real with you. When you are so intense, it’s hard to take in what might be valid about what you are saying. When you treat me this way, it feels like you don’t respect me. Is that true? We need a new perspective. Let’s take a break and each get clearer about what really matters here. Okay?

These flash cards, as well as the book on which they’re based, were first inspired by a particularly angry couples therapy session in which a wife’s unrelenting criticism of her husband was making him more and more emotionally withdrawn. Suddenly, Nancy Dreyfus found herself scribbling on a scrap of paper, “Talk to me like I’m someone you love,” and gesturing to the husband that he should hold it up. He did, and within seconds, the familiar power differential between the two shifted, and a gentler, more genuine connection emerged before all their eyes. Talk to Me Like I’m Someone You Love: Flash Cards For Real Life are a brilliant interactive relationship tool that can help couples stop arguing and begin healing.

Good Talk, Dad: The Birds and the Bees…and Other Conversations We Forgot to Have

Bill Geist–the beloved, award-winning, long-time special correspondent for “CBS: Sunday Morning,” whose debut Little League Confidential was a New York Times bestseller in hardcover and paper–and Willie Geist, the Today Show host, popular member of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” and author of the best-selling American Freak Show–have begun an extended conversation between father and son on areas of mutual interest, agreement, and disagreement.

Told in a unique back-and-forth banter style, the hilarious father-son team will laugh together at the shared journey of their relationship. They’ll riff on fatherhood, religion, music, sports, summer camp disasters, driving lessons gone horribly wrong, being on TV, and their wonderfully odd family life. Think Big Russ and Me (May 2010, 345,829 net per bookscan) meets S*** My Dad Says, with humorous observations about professional wrestling as a worldview, raising a kid with television cameras in the kitchen, and anything and everything else that comes to their witty minds.

The Geists decided to write this book so their children and grandchildren would have a record of their unusual father-son relationship. The book is remarkably funny, as well as poignant and sincere, especially in light of Bill’s announcement that he’s been diagnosed with Parkinson’s. With its lighthearted look at the crazy things fathers and sons go through and the unique bond those experiences forge, the book is sure to be a must-have gift for Father’s Day.

Car Talk Classics: Four Perfectly Good Hours

Four all-time favorite episodes from the popular radio show—complete, unexpurgated, and hilarious.

Click and Clack may be America’s most trusted car repair experts. They are certainly the funniest, as millions of listeners who tune in each week to Car Talk can attest. As each show unfolds, it develops its own zany feeling and rhythm, sometimes due to the strength of the coffee or a particularly large burr in Tommy’s undershorts.

This Car Talk set is for fans who want to waste another four perfectly good hours. Rather than a “best of” collection, it’s four complete shows—every call, every joke, every “Don’t drive like my brother” admonition, every puzzler, every punny mention of a fictional show staff member (chauffeur Picov Andropov, night club manager Don Kashane), and every maniacal laugh.

The four shows include the 2002 Mother’s Day extravaganza with Click and Clack’s long-suffering mom, and “You Can’t Do It Unless the Number Is Two” from February 2001, the show that gave birth to a new Car Talk mantra and exposed Tommy’s radical views on education (like, it should end after 7th grade).

Car Talk: 25 Years of Lousy Car Advice

In 1987, Tom and Ray Magliozzi, also known as Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers, made the leap from nursing the motley car population of New England to creating the nationally beloved public radio phenomenon that we all know as Car Talk. The advice may be a little suspect, and the memories in desperate need of a tune-up, but the laughs are genuine as Click and Clack look back on an illustrious—if not industrious—25 years of delighting NPR audiences with their wit, wisdom, and occasionally relevant musings on the maintenance of cars. Lovingly compiled by the long-suffering lackeys at Car Talk Plaza, this collection represents the most memorable, most hilarious moments from the show’s vast archives.
