- Arms & legs : a novel / by Lane, Chloe,1982-author.;
"A taut and suspenseful domestic drama that explodes the comforting and constricting confines of marriage and early parenthood. In a Florida almost claustrophobic with life, Georgie's marriage has stagnated. But there's no room to attend to it, as dangers small and large crowd in: teeth break, her son can't find his words, there's something in her husband's eye, termites swarm the neighbourhood, and she finds a dead boy in the burning woods. And then -- there's Jason. As the repercussions of her discovery of the body, and her affair, come to land, Georgie digs deep, examining the undercurrents of her actions with curiosity, humour, and cutting emotional intelligence. Arms & Legs is a deliriously insightful excavation of love, desire, parenthood, and relationships at their best, and worst."--- Subjects: Thrillers (Fiction); Domestic fiction.; Psychological fiction.; Novels.; Adultery; Man-woman relationships; Married people;

- The mountain is you : transforming self-sabotage into self-mastery / by Wiest, Brianna,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.This is a book about self-sabotage. Why we do it, when we do it, and how to stop doing it -- for good. Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential. For centuries, the mountain has been used as a metaphor for the big challenges we face, especially ones that seem impossible to overcome. To scale our mountains, we actually have to do the deep internal work of excavating trauma, building resilience, and adjusting how we show up for the climb. In the end, it is not the mountain we master, but ourselves.- Subjects: Self-help publications.; Self-defeating behavior.; Self-actualization (Psychology); Self-realization.; Self-esteem.;

- The hidden power of the five hearts : empower your thoughts, balance your emotions, and unlock vibrant health and abundance. by Snyder, Kimberly.;
"New York Times best-selling author Kimberly Snyder shows that your heart is not just a muscle pumping blood through your body or a metaphor for sentimental love. It is a center of profound intelligence. When you learn to work with your heart and harness your heart intelligence, you create heart coherence, or more efficient communication between your heart, brain, and nervous system. In doing that, you can access a far deeper intelligence--heart intelligence--that infuses the whole of your life with a different kind of synergistic power, paving the path to your best performance, higher health, incredible relationships, and the ability to find better solutions throughout your day, no matter what you are doing. There are five progressive stages that make up the process of awakening your heart intelligence and heart coherence, as well as unlocking the energetic, or spiritual, heart. These five stages of heart awakening are inspired by the teachings of the revered yoga guru Swami Sri Yukteswar, guru to Paramahansa Yogananda. The Five Hearts are as follows: The Dark Heart ; The Propelled Heart ; The Steady Heart ; The Devoted Heart ; The Clear Heart. As she did in You Are More Than You Think You Are, Kimberly shares a modern perspective on ancient teachings through the lens of her own spiritual journey and experiences of the heart as well as the latest research in science, psychology, and personal transformation. Using practical exercises, meditations, and journaling prompts, Kimberly teaches that following your heart does not mean going along with strong, obsessive, or erratic thoughts and emotions--whether they are anger, desire, worry, infatuation, or fear--that ultimately limit the quality of your life. Instead, heart intelligence is calm, intuitive, and emotionally intelligent; it gives you access to more mental clarity and to expansive solutions that are the best for your life in the long term. It puts your body, mind, and life into peak performance"--Library Bound Incorporated- Subjects: BODY, MIND & SPIRIT / Inspiration & Personal Growth; BODY, MIND & SPIRIT / Mindfulness & Meditation; SELF-HELP / Spiritual;

- Dealing with feeling : use your emotions to create the life you want / by Brackett, Marc A.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."From Marc Brackett, director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and author of the bestselling book Permission to Feel, comes an essential guide for regulating how we respond to our emotions in order to transform our lives Success in virtually every aspect of life -- career, friendships, love, family -- is determined mainly by one thing: how you deal with your feelings. In your most challenging moments, how did you respond? Did you fly off the handle? Were you paralyzed by indecision? Did you engage in behaviors that undermined your best intentions? Or, did you exhibit grace under pressure and flourish? How you responded likely determined what happened next. But the way we handle our emotions is not, as many believe, a fixed part of ourselves. Rather, it is a set of skills and techniques that must be taught and refined across our lives. Marc Brackett examines his own experiences with emotions, explains the latest science of emotion, and provides a set of practical, evidence-based strategies to help readers use their feelings wisely to nurture healthy relationships, achieve challenging goals, and attain greater wellbeing. At the heart of his message is acceptance; there is no such thing as a bad emotion -- only the ones you don't understand and don't yet know how to direct in positive, intentional ways. We all have the power to decide how we will respond to what life throws at us. By honing our emotion regulation skills, we can increase our chances of achieving success in all facets of our lives. Dealing With Feeling will help you become the best version of yourself"--- Subjects: Self-help publications.; Emotions.; Life skills.; Well-being.;
