Practical, Insightful- & Just in Time for the Holidays!- Master this Book Now! 5 out of 5 stars.
29 of 29 people found this review helpful.

This small, simple little book is filled with an abundance of insightful life lessons that can direct you onto the path of living a spiritually rich life. "The Mastery of Love", by Don Miguel Ruiz, is a practical guide on the art of forming a relationship. From Ruiz's perspective, relationship building is indeed an art form.

Ruiz divides his spiritual journey into three different areas of emotional awareness. The first is the `Mastery of Awareness', whereby he looks at relationship from the perspective of freedom. He suggests that relationship can only thrive and develop through a sense of freedom and truth. The second is the `Mastery of Transformation' , in which the author encourages the development of spiritual awareness. Finally, the author examines the `Mastery of Love' suggesting that the road to true happiness and truthful expression of the mind, body, and soul is the expression of love. As the author delves into each of the three major tenants of his approach, it becomes clear that love and relating to one another can be a simple journey of self awareness and the willingness to embrace love.

The spiritual journey in this book reminds me of my favorite authors on the topic of pursuing happiness and self expression. Ariel and Shya Kanes' book "Working on Yourself Doesn't Work: The 3 Simple Ideas That Will Instantaneously Transform Your Life" is an incredible book dedicated to pursuing a fulfilling and meaningful life through awareness and transformation. I have taken their workshops in New York City. Their approach has truly shifted the qualitative experience in my life and how I interact within all of my relationships. You can check out their books and workshops on Transformationmadeeasy.com

I suggest you check out the books by Ruiz and the Kanes and read them back to back! Both will help enrich and enliven the way you interact with life and with other people!

Editorial Review:

In The Mastery of Love, don Miguel illuminates the fear-based beliefs and assumptions that undermine love and lead to suffering and drama in our relationships. Using insightful stories to bring his message to life, he shows us how to heal our emotional wounds, recover the freedom and joy that are our birthright, and restore the spirit of playfulness that is vital to loving relationships. Using teachings from the three Toltec Masteries (Awareness, Transformation, and Love) as a foundation, don Miguel brings to light the fallacies and misplaced expectations about love that permeate most relationships. He gracefully shares his wisdom through delightful and engaging stories that clarify each point and bring his message to life.

The same uncertainty remains 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Joseph Murphy's book on the power of the subconscious mind is well written and studded with case studies in support of his claim that people can perform miracles if only they 'believe'. Now that's a strange word because belief is liable to change over time depending on the changes in the behavior pattern of both the subject and the object. If human beings are extremely cautious and reserved in believing his social counterpart in day to day interaction how can he put his unreserved faith on a 'substance' of things hoped for.

It is true that subconscious mind is the seat of emotions but then again men's inner world is too complex and too vast and nobody knows how and where these reactions would land him into. There is no deterministic pattern to achieve a thing through sheer belief. Even the very author in question cannot duplicate his previous success by relying on his subconscious power. It is difficult to experience a situation that one has not previously encountered. Mere repetition of a lullaby 'wealth' is no guarantee that one would be wealthy. Likewise, the quality of leadership to run a country can't be developed through such practices and Joesph Nye's book on leadership suggests some practical measures to that effect.

Nevertheless, this is an outstanding book in developing positive attitude so needed in a tension ridden contemporary world.

Gentle and profound guidance 5 out of 5 stars.
17 of 19 people found this review helpful.

Kathy Freston's book is a great and easy read. One of the chapters that caught my attention was titled "Be the Change". Here, she gently guides us to discover our personal and worldly aims and connect with our purpose. In doing so, she shows how we can make a difference while realizing our full potential and being satisfied and fulfilled. This chapter reminded me of two of my favorite authors, Ariel and Shya Kane and their book: Working on Yourself Doesn't Work: The 3 Simple Ideas That Can Instantaneously Transform Your Life Their work transformed my life: I experience being in the present moment. I find myself being creative and productive without really trying as well as seeing that I make a difference in my environment.

If you are ready to discover magic in your life, day in and day out,regardless of the circumstances, I highly recommend both books.

Linda Nelson Stocks wall calendar 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 4 people found this review helpful.

I have purchased Linda Nelson Stocks calendars yearly for probably about ten years and never tire of the beauty of the country folk art on each page. There has never been a calendar that disappointed me yet.

Perect daily planner 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 1 people found this review helpful.

The most important part of a daily planner is of course, the area's to write in, but what is neglected is a place to keep items of importance. This calendar has 2 flaps attached to the front and back cover so you can slip in notices and items of constant use.
The beauty of the calendar shows American Folk Art, which is lovely but the flexibility and durability of this calendar - with the additional features, make it the one calendar I purchase every year.

Editorial Review:

Linda Nelson Stocks is a renowned folk artist best known for the paintings that graced the Lang Folk Art Calendar for many years. She lives, gardens, and continues to paint in Connecticut.

Decent Material For Beginners 3 out of 5 stars.
8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

I had knowledge on this subject for years, so most of the material written in this book was mainly old news to me. Most of the material in this book is an overview of the disorders and a lot of pics of brain scans. (Including before and after shots) There is a lot of talk about medication as well and different categories of antidepressants. Honestly there isn't that much extra material that books like "Don't Panic" doesn't cover (although this book isn't as dry as "Don't Panic"). If you are new to all of this, then it's is a decent read. If you been dealing with this for quite a while now, chances are that your doctor has found the right meds for you and that you've been properly diagnosed. You may want a book that goes a little deeper in the topics of "rational vs irrational thoughts", "self-esteem", or "phobias". I gave this book 3 stars only because I was expecting more with all the 5-star reviews and didn't pick-up anything new, but it's a good book if you are new to all of this and want a primer about the road that's ahead of you.

Editorial Review:

Dr. Amen has pioneered the clinical use of brain SPECT imaging in psychiatry. His clinics' signature brain scans have discovered that the illnesses of anxiety and depression are, in large part, the result of brain dysfunction. Scans have also determined that anxiety and depression often occur together, and there are seven distinct types of disorders. HEALING ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION reveals the major anxiety and depression centers of the brain and offers guidelines and tools to determine the specific type of anxiety and depression from which one suffers, and providing a comprehensive program for treating each type. This is a groundbreaking guide to conquering these devastating disorders.

Editorial Review:

How did you feel after your last interaction with another person? Did that person — your spouse, best friend, coworker, or even a stranger — "fill your bucket" by making you feel more positive? Or did that person "dip from your bucket," leaving you more negative than before? The number one New York Times and number one Business Week bestseller, How Full Is Your Bucket? reveals how even the briefest interactions affect your relationships, productivity, health, and longevity. Organized around a simple metaphor of a dipper and a bucket, and grounded in 50 years of research, this book will show you how to greatly increase the positive moments in your work and your life — while reducing the negative. Filled with discoveries, powerful strategies, and engaging stories, How Full Is Your Bucket? is sure to inspire lasting changes and has all the makings of a timeless classic. Included in this edition is the bonus section "Instructional Guide for Educators," an additional 64 pages with ideas for classroom "bucket filling" activities for teachers to use with their students.

This CD was delivered to me in just one day via Amazon Prime Shipping (free shipping). I really like the CD and I listen to it in my car whenever I want to. I like how it summarizes all that Anthony Robbins talks about. I'm also reading a book called Unlimited Power from him, and he talks about some points that he makes in the book on this CD as well. This is a good inspirational CD and motivates you to take control of your life, realize your true worth, and guides you in the steps you should do to get there.
