"Our diet-obsessed culture," observes psychologist and eating disorder specialist Dr. Harper, "has robbed us of a joyful relationship with food." We are deluged by diet information-and misinformation-from doctors and scientists, to celebrities and food industry spokespeople. The pressure to diet and to avoid foods on the ever-changing forbidden list is more staggering than at any other time in history. Is it any wonder that people are either obsessed with dieting or so overwhelmed that they've simply given up? All of us born in the twentieth century have been influenced by what Dr. Harper calls the way of dieting. We've made eating into a set of rules, most often for the purpose of weight loss even though this is not the way we were meant to eat. "Our bodies tell us what they need if we are willing to listen," is Harper's reassuring message. After helping hundreds of clients take charge of their relationship with food, Dr. Harper shows how to leave the way of dieting behind.

I Sit Listening to the Wind is the newly revised companion volume to the classic Circle of Stones. As Judith Duerk powerfully shows, the world is crying out for a developed Feminine voice, a voice that can mediate, once again, the ancient values of the Feminine. These are values of interiority and of the sacredness of the earth, that honor the privacy of individual process; values of the deeper Self held within us all. Many women experience a battle within themselves between the critical, dismissing voice of their masculine side and the interior, self-sustaining voice of their feminine side. Without coming to terms and seeking balance with our masculine side, our feminine side can never reach its full potential. For those seeking balance between the masculine urge to DO and the feminine desire to BE, Duerk's mixture of prose, poetry, and reflective questions creates a model for integration.

What does money mean to you? Money is never neutral. It triggers powerful emotions and conflicting messages-especially for women. This complete "workshop in a book" walks readers through the Six Stages of the Money Journey Circle, including worksheets and journaling exercises designed to uncover the hidden meaning of money in your life and to bring your financial life into alignment with your core values. The stages consist of uncovering hidden messages, identifying a money autobiography, bringing out facts and feelings, creating alignment, finding your dream, and taking action.

For over ten years, women have been responding in extraordinary ways to the provocative questions in Judith Duerk's best-selling book Circle of Stones: "How might your life have been different if, through every stage of your life ... birth, puberty, adulthood, old age ... you had been received, affirmed, sustained by a 'circle' of older, wiser women?" Women were invited to share-in reflections, essays, poems, and art-how the support of women has changed their lives. We were not prepared for the stunning, haunting, powerful submissions we received from women around the world. From Northern Ireland to Switzerland, from Bermuda to Great Britain, from Canada to Hawaii, from women born in India to women living in New York City, their moving portrayals arrived by mail, fax, e-mail, and phone calls. From these respondents around the world, Judith Duerk has selected sixty works, presented in six sections, representing the depth and beauty of a woman's journey: My Mother, My Grandmother ... My Sister, Aunts, and Cousins; Woman to Woman: Individual Women Who Made a Difference; Women's Circles; Women's Wisdom, Women's Vision; My Journey as a Woman; and Women's Generativity.

Self-Help

In the deceptively simple framework of an allegorical tale, Paula D'Arcy tells of her own spiritual journey through the story of a young girl named Anastasia. In the town of Status across the river from Quo, where Anastasia was born, nothing ever changes until the Stranger arrives and awakens a great longing in her heart. Bringing tales of love and of the Great Being, the Stranger captivates the children with his joy and delight in life. They dance, fly kites, and disrupt the way things should be. But the town elders disapprove and force the Stranger to move on. When Anastasia reaches her seventeenth year, she begins to feel discontent, restless, and is filled with a deep longing. Setting out on a journey to find the Stranger whose words had once captured her heart, she encounters a Magician who promises to guide her quest. Red Fire is a book of visionary fiction for all who have ever felt left a place of comforting familiarity in search of the unknown.

This timeless book is not about giving more but about giving from the deepest self in ways that nurture rather than deplete. Using clear language, self-quizzes, charts, and worksheets, the author helps readers discover and transform their identity as givers, in the process giving play to their unique gifts and their joy in the act of giving. Five chapters spell out the step-by-step process using the word GUIDE — from G, Give wholly to yourself, to E, Experience the expanding capacity to give. Includes appendices with two five-session outlines for women’s discussion groups and spirituality-based retreat centers.
