By Margaret Lynch Raniere, David Raniere. 2021
If you've ever felt like you're stuck, unfulfilled, or that you've been consistently "playing small"-and yet there's something inside you…
that knows you're meant to do, feel, and be something more -then Unblocked was written for you. Leading empowerment coach, Margaret Lynch Raniere, has distilled years of experience and client success into a proven approach to help you overcome the blocks that stifle your potential. By leveraging the ancient chakra system and evidence-based Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) also known as tapping, she's created a groundbreaking healing system to help you reclaim your inner power and transform your life.This book includes unique Healing Experiences that will guide you through actively unblocking the lower chakras (root, sacral, solar plexus, and heart). These "empowerment chakras" are the source of our power-and when they're blocked by long-buried pain and fear, we remain limited by self-doubt, procrastination, and a perpetual need to prove our worth. When those blocks are cleared, we finally stop "proving"-and start being-our most powerful, passionate, authentic selves. One by one, you'll free the "empowerment energy" contained in the chakras and unleash your innate superpowers. . . to be fearless and vulnerable, confident and real, strong and compassionate without needing to be "perfect."In addition, Harvard-trained psychoanalyst, Dr. David Raniere, highlights the psychology behind these transformative experiences, including practical tips on how to integrate them and elevate your level of feeling, speaking, and acting in your day-to-day life.Just imagine what you could accomplish if you embraced a new way of being in the world and consistently acted with confidence, courage, and a deep belief in yourself and your value. No matter where you're starting, Unblocked is the ultimate empowerment tool to help you fully inhabit your best self and create the life you've always wanted.Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget: How to Survive in Business and Life
By Margaret Josephs. 2021
Pretty Mess meets #Girlboss in this part memoir, part entrepreneurial manifesto from The Real Housewives of New Jersey&’s &“Powerhouse in…
Pigtails.&”Margaret Josephs is a hustler. She&’s a tough cookie. She speaks her mind. She never leaves the house without lipstick on. She&’s also a devoted wife, mother, daughter, businesswoman, lifestyle expert, and fan-favorite star of the reality TV series The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Sounds pretty glamorous, right? Well, things are never exactly as they seem. Before she arrived where she is today, &“The Marge&” was born to young immigrant parents. Raised by a single party-girl mother who left her physically abusive father when she was one and a half, she was taught that it was more important to look good than to feel good. No structure. No rules. No blueprint for future success or stability. But like most people who struggle through atypical childhoods, destructive relationships, and career challenges, she forced herself to wake up every morning and put one high heel in front of the other, even if she didn&’t know where she was going. Margaret took the cards she was dealt and eventually turned them into a winning hand, and she wants to arm fans with the ability to do the same. In Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget, she&’ll talk about how to launch a lifestyle brand, how to work with family members, and how to be an uncompromising woman in a man&’s world. She also spills stories from her personal life about the son Real Housewives viewers don&’t know exists, the time Joan Rivers gave her the best advice she ever got, the rendezvous she had with a famous rock star, and the affair with her contractor that ended her marriage but gave her the happily ever after. Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget takes readers along Margaret&’s wild, bumpy journey to entrepreneurial success and reality TV fame, written in her trademark no-nonsense, tongue-in-cheek voice with the perfect combination of grit and glitz.Level Up: Your Mental Toughness Boot Camp

By Richard Pile. 2001
As a society we have never had so much advantage and yet been so disadvantaged by this very same society…
which we have built for ourselves, by ignoring our basic needs when it comes to sleep, nutrition, movement, relaxation, relationships and purpose in life. We face a rising tide of physical health problems, such as obesity and diabetes, and mental health issues such as loneliness and depression. Our medical model is a broken, disease-based one which is not fit to meet our needs, particularly when it comes to preventing health and wellbeing problems. Just as secular society is often guilty of dualism when it comes to wellbeing, focusing on the physical but ignoring the spiritual, the faith community may make the same mistake in reverse, focusing on the spiritual whilst ignoring the physical. We need to combine all these different aspects to enjoy true wellbeing and a satisfying life.The book explores what it means to be fit for purpose in life: physically, mentally and spiritually. It describes the problems we face, both individually and as communities, and succinctly summarizes the evidence for the key factors that determine our wellbeing. It lays down a challenge to avoid treating physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing as separate. Using knowledge and experience of the worlds of medicine, behavioral change and Christian faith, Dr. Pile presents real life case studies and provides practical recommendations for making changes whether for ourselves, our faith community or wider society.Better Sleep, Better You: Your No-Stress Guide for Getting the Sleep You Need and the Life You Want

By Kristin Van Ogtrop. 2021
Enjoy this hilarious and deeply insightful take on the indignities of middle age and how to weather them with grace—from…
the former editor-in-chief of Real Simple. "A pure pleasure to read." (Cathi Hanauer, author of Gone) Do you hate the term &“middle age?&” So does Kristin van Ogtrop, who is still trying to come up with a less annoying way to describe those years when you find yourself both satisfied and outraged, confident and confused, full of appreciation but occasional disdain for the world around you. Like an intimate chat with your best friend, this mostly funny, sometimes sad, always affirming volume from longtime magazine journalist van Ogtrop is a celebration of that period of life when mild humiliations are significantly outweighed by a self-actualized triumph of the spirit. Finally! Featuring stories from her own life, as well as anecdotes from her unwitting friends and family, van Ogtrop encourages you to laugh at the small irritations of midlife: neglectful children, stealth insomnia, forks that try to kill you, t.v. remotes that won&’t find Netflix, abdominal muscles that can&’t seem to get the job done. But also to acknowledge the things you may have lost: innocence, unbridled optimism, smooth skin. Dear friends. Parents. It&’s all here: the sublime and the ridiculous, living together in the pages of this book as they do in your heart, like a big messy family, in this no-better-term-for-it middle age.An inspiring guide to saying thank you, one heartfelt note at a time.We all know that gratitude is good for…
us--but the real magic comes when we express it. Writer Gina Hamadey learned this life-changing lesson firsthand when a case of burnout and too many hours on social media left her feeling depleted and disconnected. In this engaging book, she chronicles how twelve months spent writing 365 thank-you notes to strangers, neighbors, family members, and friends shifted her perspective. Her journey shows that developing a lasting active gratitude practice can make you a happier person, heal complicated relationships, and reconnect you with the people you love--all with just a little bit of bravery at the mailbox.How can we turn an often-dreaded task into a rewarding act of self-care that makes us feel more present, joyful, and connected? Whether we're writing to a long-lost friend, a helpful neighbor, or a child's teacher, this inspiring book helps us reflect on meaningful memories and shared experiences and express ourselves with authenticity, vulnerability, and heart. Informed by Hamadey's year of discovery as well as interviews with experts on relationships, gratitude, and more, this deceptively simple guide offers a powerful way to jump-start your joy.Hamadey found herself thanking not only family members and friends, but less expected people in her sphere, including local shopkeepers, physical therapists, long-ago career mentors, favorite authors, and more. Once you get going, you might find yourself cultivating an active gratitude practice, too--one heartfelt note of thanks at a time.Do What You Are: Discover the Perfect Career for You Through the Secrets of Personality Type

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams and live the life you have imagined." - Henry David Thoreau “True…
happiness is rooted in a strong sense of personal worthiness which I call Self Belonging.” —Luann Robinson Hull Self-Belonging dives deeply into the subject of dependency in relationships—inspired by the author’s personal challenges. While devoting twenty-five years to helping others break through the barriers of mental illness and life-crisis as a Clinical Social Worker, Luann Robinson Hull found herself repeatedly falling back into destructive habits in her own relationships.

She guides readers through many journeys: • Self Belonging• The Human Upgrade• Raising Your Happiness Potential• How Conditioning Influences Relationships• Conscious Evolution: Becoming a Game Changer• Becoming the Master of Your Awareness• Tools for Self belonging• Sweet Freedom and more. Self-Belonging gifts the reader with an opportunity to connect with the authentic self, build joyful relationships, and merge into one’s highest destiny with confidence.
