What families and friends need to know about addiction and recovery Just wanted to let you know how much the weekly quotes have been useful to the people I work with. I am an Addiction Therapist with the Veterans Affairs Health Administration. There have been many times that I have taken a quote into a therapy group to use as a topic generator, only to find that it hit right on the issues on the minds of the group members on that day. The Veterans in our residential program often find they can relate to the quote of the week from The Wisdom of the Rooms. I have suggested this to my fellow therapists as well. Thank you for providing such an inspiring and useful tool for people in recovery. --James T. Hall, M.S. NCC, Addiction Therapist When the monkey in my brain starts chattering, I often ask it, "On what authority are you telling me this?" Well now I have an authority to counter with... "The Wisdom of the Rooms." --Gary Stromberg, Author of The Harder They Fall: Celebrities Tell Their Real-Life Stories of Addiction and Recovery Just love this book...

As the mother of a struggling teen addict our family tales are the same as many. Reading this inspiration from each week has helped me to gain a certain perspective of the trials and tribulations my son faces and an understanding of his struggles that he is unable to explain. Each week you fill my glass with hope that one day my son will find himself "out of the hallway." --The mother of a recovering addict One day at a time we find spiritual fitness if we turn to our Higher Power. Like Manna from heaven, it can't all be successfully stored, but must be replenished and given away. The Wisdom of the Rooms builds on ideas, quotes and faith commonly shared in the meetings. He then supplements each idea with bulleted and thought provoking questions to personalize the experience for each individual.

Random House USA Inc Rejection Proof How I Beat Fear and Became
Book SynopsisAn entertaining and inspiring account of conquering the fear of rejection, offering a completely new perspective on how to turn a no into a yes. Jia Jiang came to the United States with the dream of being the next Bill Gates. But despite early success in the corporate world, his first attempt to pursue his entrepreneurial dream ended in rejection. Jia was crushed, and spiraled into a period of deep self doubt. But he realized that his fear of rejection was a bigger obstacle than any single rejection would ever be, and he needed to find a way to cope with being told no without letting it destroy him. Thus was born his 100 days of rejection experiment, during which he willfully sought rejection on a daily basis--from requesting a lesson in sales from a car salesman (no) to asking a flight attendant if he could make an announcement on the loud speaker (yes) to his famous request to get Krispy Kreme doughnuts in the shape of Olympic rings (yes, with a viral video to prove it

Book SynopsisHere is a book to change your life. It is a method for losing weight through positive thinking and the changing of attitudes toward life and food.This, of course, is no ordinary 'diet' book...This is an extraordinary approach to weight loss--a diet of forgiveness, a fast from negative thought--and if followed one can achieve bodily perfection. The theory is simple. Though we might think it is our negative eating habits that have kept us unattractive and unhealthy, it is really our negative thoughts and feelings. It is the latter we must change for that is what is aging and killing us. If we do...we drop our fat as well, for the same mechanism that holds on to negative thoughts and feelings holds on to fat. --from the Preface
