Everyone wants to be happy--yet so many people are unhappy today. What are they doing wrong? Clearly, a new approach is needed. Self-help guru Shimoff presents three new ideas and a practical program to change the way readers look at creating happiness in their lives: 1. Happiness is not an emotion, a spike of elation or euphoria, but a lasting, neuro-physiological state of peace and well-being. 2. True happiness is not based on what people do or have--it doesn't depend on external reasons or circumstances. 3. Research indicates that everyone has a happiness set-point. No matter what happens to a person, they will tend to return to a set range of happiness. This book shows how you can actually reprogram your set-point to a higher level.--From publisher description.

Our greatest suffering is that we do not feel complete as we are. Right here, right now! We have been trained to reject our uniqueness and our value.

Mark Kahn, a practicing clinical psychologist of 35 years, and management consultant with 17 years' worth of experience, has devoted his life to helping people to realise self-love, without arrogance. In this unique Self-Esteem work, penned straight from the heart and shooting straight from the hip; readers will be taken through the theory, as well as a range of simple, yet powerful techniques enabling individuals: -Dissolve your feelings of victimhood in the face of conflict and threat.-To no longer be a slave to the conditioned rules of society.-To reclaim the power and confidence you have given away to others.-To choose to risk yourself more than you avoid.-To let go of the noose of guilt and performance anxiety, which society has placed around your neck.-To move from the hell of wanting to be loved, to the heaven of loving yourself for no reason!"This insightful book is both a direct and powerful response to the prison walls created by our conditioning. To dismantle these walls enables a freedom of spirit and psyche to emerge, that honours the individuality, the uniqueness and the genius of every one of us."Dr. John F. Demartini

The author of Punished by Rewards and The Schools Our Children Deserve returns with a provocative challenge to the conventional ways of raising children. Kohn argues that all children have the need to be loved unconditionally, yet conventional approaches to parenting, such as punishment and reward, teach children that they are loved only when they please and impress parents. Kohn cites powerful research detailing the damage this can cause. Unconditional Parenting pushes parents to question their ideas of parenting and offers practical solutions to problems.

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller On Bullshit, a profound meditation on how and why we love In The Reasons of Love, leading moral philosopher and bestselling author Harry Frankfurt argues that the key to a fulfilled life is to pursue wholeheartedly what one cares about, that love is the most authoritative form of caring, and that the purest form of love is, in a complicated way, self-love. Through caring, we infuse the world with meaning. Caring provides us with stable ambitions and concerns, and it shapes the framework of aims and interests within which we lead our lives. Love is a nonvoluntary, disinterested concern for the flourishing of what we love—and self-love, as distinct from self-indulgence, is at heart of this concern. The most elementary form of self-love is no more than the desire to love, and self-love is simply a commitment to finding meaning in our lives.

Little consequences. An illegitimate baby was fodder for the local gossips — especially when the identity of the baby’s father was uncertain. But Riona knew that Cameron Adams, the wealthy American who owned the farm she managed in Scotland, was her son’s father. He was also the man who’d left her without a word. When Cam returned and took one look at the five-month-old baby in her arms, Riona’s deepest fear became a reality. Cam gave her a choice — a marriage of convenience to legitimise their son...or a custody battle that Riona knew only Cam could win!
