Product Description
Do you believe that you can consistently beat the stock market if you put in the effort? —that some people have extrasensory perception? —that crime and drug abuse in America are on the rise? Many people hold one or more of these beliefs although research shows that they are not true.

She: Understanding Feminine Psychology

51AM8W422XL. SL160  She: Understanding Feminine Psychology

Product Description
She – for men who want to understand women, and for women, to better understand themselves
In Jungian terms, the Grecian myth of Psyche and Eros serves as a powerful illumination of the feminine personality. This timeless tale of love, loss, loneliness and ultimate triumph is a revealing allegory of every woman’s striving toward individuation — to become the whole and complete person she was intended to be.

Understanding Psyche’s story can bring deep insights into every woman’s struggle to deal with various aspects of her feminity and successfully relate to the men in her life. The myth also helps to explain the difficulties a woman may have in reconciling her femininity with her animus — the unsconscious masculine side of her personality — and the problems a man may have in coming to terms with his anima, the inner feminine aspect of his psyche.
Newly updated and revised, She includes a special introduction by the author, and is narrated… More >>

Dreams

515aGunQ5vL. SL160  Dreams

Product Description
According to Freud, our unconscious impulses are not random, but packed with meaning, taking on color, form and even a storyline. All dreams are actually wish fulfillments, and interpreting them can bridge the gap to the conscious, resulting in more meaningful living.Amazon.com Review
Whether we love or hate Sigmund Freud, we all have to admit that he revolutionized the way we think about ourselves. Much of this revolution can be traced to The Interpretation of Dreams, the turn-of-the-century tour de force that outlined his theory of unconscious forces in the context of dream analysis. Introducing the id, the superego, and their problem child, the ego, Freud advanced scientific understanding of the mind immeasurably by exposing motivations normally invisible to our consciousness. While there’s no question that his own biases and neuroses influenced his observations, the details are less important than the paradigm shift as a whole. Afte… More >>

Shut Up, Stop Whining, and Get a Life: A Kick-Butt Approach to a Better Life

511X0RAFCCL. SL160  Shut Up, Stop Whining, and Get a Life: A Kick Butt Approach to a Better Life

Product Description
Shut Up, Stop Whining & Get a Life

This is not your typical self-help book. You won’t find any motivational platitudes or cute business parables here. This is more of a “get off your butt and get to work” approach that can help you achieve more success, make more money, improve your business, and have more fun.

Larry Winget doesn’t pull any punches here. He believes that business gets better when businesspeople get better through personal growth. And it works the same way in your personal life-husbands and wives improve each other when they improve themselves, and kids improve when their parents do. In other words, everything in life gets better when you get better, and nothing gets better until you get better.

This book can make you better, but it will probably tick you off. Winget is direct, caustic, and controversial. You won’t like or agree with everything he has to say. Yet his advice is full of wisdom and … More >>

Product Description
Charting a course through the underworld pathways with the heart of a shaman, mapping the powers of myth and psyche with all the soul and interpretive skill of Jung or Campbell, Plotkin’s guide to the journey of initiation is to nature-based soulwork what Huxley’s Doors of Perception was to consciousness studies.
