“The Abundance Paradigm: Moving from the Law of Attraction to the Law of Creation,” by Joe Vitale
I’ve interviewed Joe Vitale several times over the years, and he is a wealth of knowledge on all things law of attraction and manifestation, including abundance, limiting beliefs and success. His newest book, “The Abundance Paradigm” shares how to make a shift from a paradigm of scarcity in which you have “not enough” of the things you want and need, to a paradigm of abundance in which you have more than enough of everything, at all times.

When you make this shift, Joe explains you move beyond the Law of Attraction to the little-known Law of Creation and step into a world where you will:

  • Align with the universe automatically instead of working to make it happen
  • Manifest your desires spontaneously instead of thinking about it
  • Get what you want immediately instead of waiting for it to show up
  • Learn step-by-step techniques that will facilitate a complete paradigm shift to enable ideas to flow into your mind freely and openly
  • Dissolve the limitation compromising your growth
  • Erase toxicity from your relationships
  • Clear your consciousness of negative judgement of yourself and others
  • Protect your paradigm from harmful outside influences and interference

“Enough Already: Learning to Love the Way I Am Today,” by Valerie Bertinelli
Behind the curtain of her happy on-screen persona, actress and food network personality, Valerie Bertinelli’s life has been no easy ride, especially when it comes to her own self-image and self-worth. She waged a war against herself for years, learning to equate her value to her appearance as a child star on One Day at a Time and punishing herself in order to fit into the unachievable Hollywood mold.

She struggled to make her marriage to Eddie Van Halen — the true love of her life — work, despite all the rifts the rock-star lifestyle created between them. She then watched her son follow in his father’s footsteps, right up onto the stage of Van Halen concerts, and begin his own music career. And like so many women, she cared for her parents as their health declined and saw the roles of parent and child reverse.

Through mourning the loss of her parents, discovering more about her family’s past, and realizing how short life really is when she and her son lost Eddie, Valerie finally said, “Enough already!” to a lifelong battle with the scale and found a new path forward to joy and connection.

Despite hardships and the pressures of the media industry to be something she’s not, Valerie is, at last, accepting herself: she knows who she is, has discovered her self-worth, and has learned how to prioritize her health and happiness over her weight. With an intimate look into her insecurities, heartbreaks, losses, triumphs, and revelations, her new book is the story of jer sometimes humorous, sometimes raw, but always honest journey to love herself and find joy in the everyday, in family, and in the food and memories we share.

 

“The 5 Apology Languages: The Secret to Healthy Relationships,” by Gary Chapman
The author of the extremely popular book “The 5 Love Languages,” now has a new book to help people struggling in relationships. In this book, Gary Chapman partners with Jennifer Thomas to help you on the journey toward restored relationships as healing comes when you learn to express regret (I’m sorry); accept responsibility (I was wrong); make restitution (How can I make it right?); plan for change (I’ll take steps to prevent a reoccurrence); and request forgiveness (Can you find it in your heart to…).

Rather than let hurts linger or wounds fester, you can start on the path to healing today and discover how meaningful apologies can make your friendships, family and marriage stronger than ever before.

“Tell Yourself a Better Lie: Use the Power of Rapid Transformational Therapy to Edit Your Story and Re-write Your Life,” by Marisa Peer
Our lives are defined by the stories we tell ourselves, but those stories aren’t always true. Narratives that are based on outdated or irrelevant information can run (or ruin) our lives for years, even if those stories are wildly different from the objective reality that formed them.

In her sixth book, best-selling author Marisa Peer shares for the first time how Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) creates stunning in-the-room turnarounds for issues as varied as suicidal depression, eating disorders, weight loss, and life-limiting phobias and addictions.

Through 10  diverse case studies, Marisa explains how our unmet needs as children can morph into fixed stories we tell ourselves in adulthood — and, more importantly, how we all have the power to change them.
