Marry Smart
by Susan PattonYou're single and you know what you want in your life. And if your dreams include getting married and having children, this fresh new approach to finding the right one at the right time shows the way to make those dreams a reality. A graduate of one of the first classes of women at Princeton University, Susan Patton has heard smart young women admit they aspire to marriage and motherhood but have no model for pursuing those goals; reflecting on the choices she made in her early twenties, she's boldly turned the tables on our "career first" conditioning and suggests that you seek out the golden opportunities right in front of you, right now.

But this is not your mother's dating guide-- Marry Smart celebrates the vital achievements of traditional marriage and motherhood, and gives you the essential life strategies that no one's talking about, including how to: * strike while the greatest number of single young men is available to you * attract a man who is your intellectual and emotional equal * date to find a mate--and how to spot a diamond in the rough * find total satisfaction in your roles as a wife and mother Whether or not you are in college, whether your future plans are clear or still undecided, Marry Smart is a must-read for all young women who want to get the most out of love and life.
Addiction to Love: Overcoming Obsession and Dependency in Relationships
by Susan PeabodyLove addiction manifests in many forms, from Fatal Attraction-type obsessive lust to less extreme but nonetheless psychologically and emotionally harmful forms. The most common of these is staying in a bad relationship because of a fear of being alone-the "I hate you but don'¬?t leave me" relationship.

This third edition includes a new introduction and revisions to the text throughout.Some symptoms of love addiction include love at first sight, excessive fantasizing, abnormal jealousy, nagging, and accepting dishonesty.Even relationships with parents, children, siblings, or friends may be addictive-dependency is not always related to romantic love.Previous editions have sold more than 40,000 copies."Love addiction is a three-headed serpent that Susan Peabody adeptly slays. This is the quintessential book for any love addict or counselor needing to fully understand this highly prevalent and complex disorder. Susan detects and dissects aspects of this condition not comprehended in other books of its kind. Recovery is possible. This book makes it possible to take the succinct steps necessary toward a loving and reciprocal long-term intimate relationship."-Sudi Scull, M.F.T., C.N., psychotherapist and nutritionistFrom the Trade Paperback edition.

Spiritually Loose: Uncover the Path to Your Divine Life
by Susan PearseYour divine life is as individual as your fingerprints: your spiritual path is unique.Spirituality isn&’t always found in organised religion, temples, or gurus. It doesn&’t need to be outsourced. Your divine life lies within, all you need to do is listen to your inner voice!Spiritually Loose shows how one woman replaced soul-destroying expectations and obligations with connection, meaning and possibilities.Susan&’s journey included raves in Ibiza, jazz bars in New York; lectures on quantum physics in Italy, philosophy classes in Australia; traditional hula dancing in Hawaii and qualifying as a Kundalini yoga teacher in Spain. Instead of finding answers, she found rules. Instead of joy, she found judgement. However, once she began looking inward, she tuned into her inner voice of love, acceptance, and joy.Tuning into your inner voice is an antidote for emptiness, regret and disappointment. It&’s a powerful reminder that it&’s ok to be spiritual and loose, humble and confident, reverent and cheeky, patient and intolerant, brave and vulnerable, deep and superficial all at once. Above all, it&’s a reminder that it&’s perfect just to be you.
The Trauma Tool Kit
by Susan Pease BanittIn 2010 the Department of Veterans Affairs cited 171,423 Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans diagnosed with PTSD, out of 593,634 total patients treated. That's almost 30 percent; other statistics show 35 percent. Nor, of course, is PTSD limited to the military. In twenty years as a therapist, Susan Pease Banitt has treated trauma in patients ranging from autistic children to women with breast cancer; from underage sex slaves to adults incapacitated by early childhood abuse. Doctors she interviewed in New York report that, even before 9/11, most of their patients had experienced such extreme stress that they had suffered physical and mental breakdowns. Those doctors agree with Pease Banitt that stress is the disease of our times. At the 2009 Evolution of Psychotherapy conference Jack Kornfield noted, "We need a trauma tool kit." Here it is.Most people, Pease Banitt says, experience trauma as a terminal blow to their deepest sense of self. Her techniques restore a sense of wholeness at the core level from which all healing springs. The uniqueness of her book lies in its diversity and accessibility. She assesses the values and limitations of traditional and alternative therapies and suggests methods that are universally available. Almost anybody can
The New I Do: Reshaping Marriage for Skeptics, Realists and Rebels
by Vicki Larson Susan Pease GadouaIf half of all cars bought in America each year broke down, there would be a national uproar. But when people suggest that maybe every single marriage doesn't look like the next and isn't meant to last until death, there's nothing but a rash of proposed laws trying to force it to do just that.In The New I Do, therapist Susan Pease Gadoua and journalist Vicki Larson take a groundbreaking look at the modern shape of marriage to help readers open their minds to marrying more consciously and creatively. Offering actual models of less-traditional marriages, including everything from a parenting marriage (intended for the sake of raising and nurturing children) to a comfort or safety marriage (where people marry for financial security or companionship), the book covers unique options for couples interested in forging their own paths.With advice and quizzes to help readers decide what works for them, The New I Do acts as a guide to thinking outside the marital box and the framework for a new debate on marriage in the 21st century.

Pinta fuera de la raya
by Susan PickLa importancia de saber desobedecer En nuestra sociedad inculcamos que la obediencia es la principal virtud. En efecto, requerimos de una estructura, leyes y normas, éstas nos dan una buena base de la cual partir, para de allí volar. El problema empieza cuando nos atoramos en esa base, cuando no nos atrevemos a analizar ni a decidir, cuando creemos que obedecer ciegamente y quedar bien con los demás es lo más importante. Pinta fuera de la raya muestra con gran sentido del humor, la riqueza de atreverse a desobedecer. La crítica ha dicho: "Por un mundo lleno de Susans, que no sólo pinta fuera de la raya sino que inspira a otros a hacerlo." Sofía Niño de Rivera "Yo me atreví a desobedecer y a salirme de la raya, gracias a ello soy libre y crecí al romper con los viejos patrones." Francisco Martín Moreno, escritor "Pinta fuera de la raya me recordó los momentos en quehe sido más libre y feliz... cuando dejé de obedecer y ser impecable, cuando me atreví a dejar los miedos y a realizar mis sueños." Érica Beltrán, una de sólo siete mexicanas que han atravesado nadando el Estrecho de Gibraltar de Europa a África. "Pinta fuera de la raya es una interesante reflexión sobre el principio fundamental: la libertad. Libertad de escoger cuándo y cómo crear, de saber dónde queda la raya y cómo pasar de un lado al otro libremente." Alex Venguer, ingeniero/productor, ganador de tres Grammy y películas ganadoras al Óscar.
