& Calloway Gregory, As Simple As Snow. This is unusual, elegant, poetic read. It fits with my more dreamy - relaxing - tasting life mode. Great characters.

& Yeager, Selene, The Doctor's Book of Food Remedies Been in research mode over this past month - cleaning up - clearing out and re-energizing my body. This is a great resource. Rented it from the library but it is a must buy for my library.

a problem with Candida? Click here for more information. It is one of those "hidden" fatigues.

& Diane Nichols, Prison Of My Own  A True Story Of Redemption & Forgiveness.

At first it didn’t seem like my kind of book. For the past three years, as founder of the
Get Ready For Love! Radio Show, I’ve spent all my time reading about love. Self love, relationship love, spiritual love, familial love, physical love, how to love …

&      Margaret Wolff, In Sweet Company Conversations with Extraordinary
Women About Living A Spiritual Life

I feel as if I know these women, more than know them. I feel as if they are friends of mine.

&      Charlie Jones and Kim Doren, That's Outside My Boat
Letting Go Of What You Can't Control

Great desk-side companion. I keep quoting from it to my husband, his friends, my friends, anyone I happen to talk to. Full of quick inspiration and bottom line "how to" action items. (Each chapter takes about a minute to read.) Here is one of my favorite quotes from Charlie ... and it was hard to choose just one!

"Worrying is rehearsing for failure." - Charlie Jones

Get this for yourself and a copy for a friend. - Viveca

 

&      Dr. Harriet Lerner,  The Dance of Fear
Rising Above Anxiety, Fear & Shame
to Be Your Best & Bravest Self

"Fear is not something to be conquered or eliminated - or even tackled, for that matter. Instead, we may need to pay close attention to its message."
-Dr. Harriet Lerner

Excellent. Even though I have read a lot self-discovery and "how to" relationship books - even though I've attended many seminars & lectures - even I thought I knew a lot about this topic ... I had major ah has & breakthroughs with The Dance of Fear.

Do you talk Love or talk shame? Are you anxious & fearful? How do your SO
"Significant Others" relate to you? Your work mates?

What really "got me" about our interview & her book is that I was unaware of how I was
talking & feeling & being related too. My ears are open and I am shifting to a better,
more Loving and open space. Thank you Dr. Lerner!

-Viveca
 

&      Malcolm Gladwell, The Tipping Point How Little Things Can Make
A Big Difference

"The three rules of the Tipping Point - the Law of the Few, the Stickiness Factor, the Power of Context ... provide us with direction for how to go about reading a Tipping Point." 
-Malcolm Gladwell

No, this is not your average Love relationship read BUT  it is totally applicable -
If you're looking for Love and feeling stuck - this is perfect - it will add a different perspective &  fresh inspiration for your quest.
(And you apply what you learn to your business too!) - Viveca

Rating * Excellent!
 

&  Nelson, Tommy, The Song of Solomon A Study of Love, Sex, Marriage, and Romance: Study Guide  (Mafe told me about this one - it is a biblical point of view - I am fascinated to find out what our elders have to say - could advice from then work now? I'll let you know!)
