It is said that cancer reaches far beyond the body it attacks. Liz, the youngest of four siblings, spent the majority of her early years in Victoria and Tasmania. In her thirties, she followed her heart to the coast of New South Wales. By age thirty-nine, she was a wife and mother on the verge of a new life as a theology student. And then she heard the two words no woman ever wants to hear: breast cancer. It's [Not] All About Liz! tells the true story of her battle with cancer through her eyes-and through those of her family. Liz; her older sister, Judy; her eldest daughter, Clara; and Joe, the family patriarch, each share a unique perspective on how Liz's cancer impacted them. The experience took her family and friends on a roller-coaster ride of emotion, one that contained moments of heartbreaking darkness- but also unexpected light.

Equine assisted psychotherapy is a professional, innovative, and experiential approach to counseling, psychotherapy, and mental health that supports clients of all ages with horses as assistants and cofacilitators in the process. Meg Kirby's book has made a significant contribution to the field of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (Eap), in articulating a Model of Eap that has foundation in psychological theory, therapeutic technique, accountable professional integrity, and utmost respect for our animal counterparts. A much needed contribution for the field, globally. Melissa Johnstone, Psychologist Meg Kirby's insight and ability to integrate psychotherapy theory and practice closes 'the gap' (the fields' current deficit or 'gap' in rigorous theoretical underpinnings), and provides a comprehensive relational psychotherapy model for working with horses to support clients. In line with best practice therapy, this book offers an introduction to an ethical equine assisted psychotherapy model, and is an 'appetiser' for curious mental health practitioners, students and the global community interested in professional animal assisted practice.Naomi Rossthorn, Counsellor and Researcher The Equine Assisted Therapy movement we're all so passionate about will benefit from Meg Kirby's strong theoretical approach that is firmly grounded in psychotherapy practice, and has a uniquely Australian modelling and voice.Dr Anna Cohen, Clinical Psychologist and Author

Author Jen Kimberley was building a life for herself in Denver, Colorado after the death of her husband from lung cancer when she was accidentally diagnosed with leukemia. In My Cancer Survival Saga, she shares her personal story. Her narrative covers mistakes she made, things she learned the hard way, and people who helped her. It describes her first encounters with alternative cancer treatments such as IPT and hyperthermia; her changes in diet and lifestyle that removed toxins and increased oxygen levels; and the weight loss and weakness known as cachexia and coming out of it alive and strong despite conventional predictions. In sidebars, she offers helpful and educational information for readers who want to know more about treatment options other than chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery; and she teaches how best to work towards a cure rather than just remission. Along with five of Jen’s entertaining poems, My Cancer Survival Saga also offers five sections on energy work to start clearing, validating, and protecting your own space. These include specific tools anyone can learn to use that remove stress and increase personal confidence.

Joy Nugent left a comfortable life as the wife of a successful orthodontist to follow a calling and vocation. For more than three decades she was a student at the bedside of people who were dying. It is her belief that in order to live a fuller and more meaningful life we need to become more open in our conversations about death and dying. This belief has the potential to lead a person to die with confidence and faith in a cosmic purpose rather than fear of the unknown. As Good as Goodbyes Get is a bridge from a traditional medical approach to an approach that considers the eternal soul of the person. Andrew Harvey, editor of The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying by Sogyal Rinpoche, internationally acclaimed author, and mystical scholar and teacher. "And I benefitted from having your book, which is written in a very sensitive, sensible way and provided an easy read with very valuable advice. I hope you market it internationally to oncology nurses, oncologists, medical oncology departments, and nursing homes" Jorge F. Cassir, MD, An oncologist from New York There is no greater endorsement I can give of Joy Nugent's work than to say when it's time for me to make my transition she is someone I would choose to accompany me to the threshold. Joy is a person of deep wisdom, intuition, and grace. She knows how to listen and reflect to others their own truth. The gems shared in As Good as Goodbyes Get help the reader learn what is healing and beneficial for those who are approaching the end of their physical lives. Hope, peace and love are the treasures that can be mined in a good death experience. With compassion and kindness Joy helps people find the path that will lead them "home." Sarah G. Schwartz, Music Educator: Cellist and Therapeutic Harpist in Medina, Ohio

From the beginning, God gave commandments and instructions throughout the Bible about avoiding debt, sowing into his kingdom, sustaining your body by treating it as a temple, and loving each other. In Prosperity: Is it by Law or Grace?, author Stewart Robertson brings you back to the fundamentals of living life as the maker intended. Robertson addresses the whole of man's spirit, soul (mind, will, and emotions), and physical body. This holistic approach increases the quality of your life and gives you assurance of knowing where you're going when you die. Through scripture, historical accounts, and personal observations, he shows how Christian blessings are based on grace, and he provides evidence of what God truly expects of you. In Prosperity: Is it by Law or Grace?, Robertson describes the basic principles God has bestowed on you to simplify your journey on earth. By sustaining every portion given to you, you can prosper, adjust your way of thinking, and change your circumstances to become blessed and to be a blessing to others.

"Today we live in such a fear-driven society in every aspect of our lives. One of the main tenets of this book turns your fear into 'Torque' to be used to transmute paralyzing fear into the courageous action needed to create forward movement and accomplish your desired reality."- Abby Juan What if you were able to grow into adulthood naturally; not the personality you adopted to fit into society, but the person you actually truly desired to be - inherently authentic, true to yourself, and successfully living your passion? What if you could become that person again; the one you were always destined to be? Would you step into that life, if shown how? "How Me Found I: Mastering the Art of Pivoting Gracefully Through Life" is a book focused on the philosophy of "multidimensional spherical thinking" and how to manifest the fullness of the life you want by operating from the center point of your experiences as a human being. This book will provide insights on helping a person improve his/her conscious understanding of their multidimensional existence within a person's scientific holographic reality here in their everyday 3D experiences. Through the strengthening of their critical thinking skills, the understanding of their own true natural composite state of being as it was always meant to be, the activation and alignment of their fullest potential in sync with nature and their own innate design, will ultimately pivot them accordingly into an accelerated life of true abundance and completeness.

When a business executive who has investigated and implemented numerous initiatives to improve company performance isn't getting the results he wants, he tries something different.
He remembers reading an article about a leader--Andrew Miles-- who credited his success to emotional intelligence. This intelligence, the article said, helped him engage his workforce and produce exceptional results.
It doesn't take the executive long to arrange a meeting with Miles, who tells him that business leaders must rely on physical, mental, and emotional effort--with emotional effort being how we manage our emotions to ensure we deliver high-quality results more frequently.
To cultivate emotional intelligence, Miles says, a leader must focus on six distinct competencies: emotional self-awareness, emotional awareness of others, authenticity, emotional reasoning, emotional self-management, and inspiring performance.
Miles explains that emotional intelligence underlies our self-awareness, empathy, leadership, and resilience, which are all skills fundamental to our success. 
Join a business executive as he seeks to understand his emotions, change how he relates to others, and improve the people around him by learning from The Emotionally Intelligent Leader.
