My books of the month
Customer Rating:
My past months pick for best books are the two SKBF Publishing's best selling which was recommended by anther reader and I am glad I listened 1) Rumi & Self Psychology (Psychology of Tranquility) 2) Sara's Therapy: The Way to Purity (A session by session therapy for self growth) 3) Seat of the Soul
This can do the trick!
Customer Rating:
I had about given up on feeling better. It was just not meant for me. So I got this CD set (honestly, who could stand reading?) and listened while I drove to work. Then I listened some more. The things Luciani pointed out were so obvious and so stark from what I had over-analyzed before, it made a difference in my life immediately. It's like lending someone your watch so they can tell you what time it is.
If you're read Dale Carnegie's 'How to Stop Worrying...' and agreed with it in principle but just couldn't make the ideas work (I had this problem), this book is very similar - with one exception. It helps you to see the self-sabotage going on inside you head. I see the two books as being very similar, but Self-Coaching gives you the ammo. It helps you recognize what's going on - when it's happening. And then it gives you the tools to combat it.
This CD is absolutely making a positive impact in my life. I continue to listen time to time to remember nuances or when I need a hand, but things are getting better. I keep working at the very simple ideas and that propels me on. I am glad I took the chance with this CD set. If you've about given up, I suggest you give it a shot.
Basic stuff, though well-written
Customer Rating:
On the good side, this book is well-written, flows nicely from paragraph to paragraph, and is very easy to read. On the bad side, I simply didn't find anything deeply insightful like I was expecting. It is fairly simplistic book about developing a better relationship with yourself, and is probably best suited for someone who is starting out on this path. As someone who has done a bit of self-analysis and self-improvement over the years, I feel this book simply didn't offer anything new or have enough compelling content to earn a recommendation. If you are looking for something that is more meaty, I think there are better choices out there.
The Power of Self-Coaching - The Five Essential Steps to Creating the Life You Want
Customer Rating:
It's spooky really. The more I read this book, it seems the more the author is "reading" me! I'm not yet finished, but can say without a doubt there's something for everyone here. The last part of the sub-title, "creating the life you want", pretty much sums it up.
At last, a true good read. If you follow, it will come!!
Customer Rating:
I have found many books and articles on this topic but this one stands alone. It is the refreshing way in which the problems are solved, not the symptoms. I was in a place I simply hated, and all aspects of my life were involved. I didn't know where to start, but knew something had to be done. They say the first step is the toughest, but buying this book made it easier. I refuse not let myself get to that place again. I have been taught how it happens and I am in control. If you truley want to make a change for the better TODAY, then start by buying this book. You will never get as much for so little!!
