Living Large: A Big Man's Ideas on Weight, Success, and Acceptance
by Laurence Shames Michael S. BermanA poignant, funny, and, above all, honest look at obesity from the inside out. Is it the goal of life to be thin? Or to be happy? In this inspiring story, those two elusive goals become one, as a fat man learns acceptance, loses the guilt, and gains the wisdom to manage his weight.You can hardly pick up a magazine or turn on the TV today without encountering a torrent of talk on weight. But all too rarely do we hear from overweight people themselves—especially men—about how life feels inside the body of a fat person. Mike Berman shares that story in this hopeful and uplifting memoir.A self-proclaimed "fat man" who is also a happy man—successful in his career, marriage, and friendships—Berman has earned his insight and peace of mind through decades of personal struggle. In Living Large, this well-known political activist and Washington lobbyist never shies away from the pain and daunting challenges of being seriously overweight. But Berman has an important message that he wants to be heard: Fatness is not a moral failing, but a disease; and once it is accepted as such, it can be successfully managed.
Living Life Fully: Finding Sanity and Goodness in the Unpredictable
by Bill KarelisWe are all imprisoned by the projections of our minds, and we all have the power to free ourselves. To gain this freedom, we must do three things: know that we are imprisoned, investigate how we entrap ourselves, and discover how to overcome our habitual patterns. The discipline of the sitting practice of meditation can lead us through such a process. Meditation doesn't have to be heavy or ambitious. We don't have to cultivate the self-image of being "spiritual" people. Rather, by forming a simple, direct, and honest relationship with ourselves and our world, we discover a rich and full path, no matter what our life situation. Cultivating decency and gentleness is always possible. And doing so makes a genuine life.

Living Like You Mean It
by Frederick Ronald J.In LIVING LIKE YOU MEAN IT, author Ronald J. Frederick, does a brilliant job of describing why people are so afraid of their emotions and how this fear creates a variety of problems in their lives. While the problems are different, the underlying issue is often the same. At the core of their distress is what Dr. Frederick refers to as feelings phobia. Whether it s the experience of love, joy, anger, sadness, or surprise, our inborn ability to be a fully feeling person has been hijacked by fear--and it s fear that s keeping us from a better life. The book begins with a questionnaire-style list that help readers take an honest look at themselves and recognize whether and how they are afraid of their feelings. It then moves on to explore the origins of fear of feeling and introduces a four-part program for overcoming the fear: (1) Become aware of and learn to recognize feelings--anger, sadness, joy, love, fear, guilt/shame, surprise, disgust. (2) Master techniques for taming the fear. (3) Let the feeling work its way all the way through to its resolution. (4) Open up and put those feelings into words and communicate them confidently. With wisdom, humor, and compassion, the book uses stories and examples to help readers see that overcoming feelings phobia is the key to a better life and more fulfilling relationships.

by Victoria Price"Living Love helps aspiring practitioners discover simple ways to create daily heart-centered practices that can help anyone experience the real, the good, the true, and the beautiful — which is, of course, what we were created for. This book reminds us that we were all made by Love to love.” — Father Richard Rohr, author of the New York Times bestseller The Universal Christ With Living Love: 12 Heart-Centered Practices to Transform Your Life, Victoria Price, the author of Vincent Prince: A Daughter’s Biography and The Way of Being Lost: A Road Trip to My Truest Self, shows how you can be the person you long to be — someone who overflows with immense joy, experiences deep connection, expresses their creativity, and feels profound peace. A spiritual self-help book, Living Love demonstrates how to turn aside the fears that stand between you and self-fulfillment and to embrace the healing power of love, permitting it to transform every aspect of your life. From creating a daily routine of joy and gratitude to developing a practice of presence and forgiveness, Victoria provides the tools for taking delight in being alive, countering fear, and developing compassion and openness. "Living Love is as elementary and accessible a Life Guide as it is a profound examination of the inner psyche. Victoria Price has dedicated her sharp and probing mind to the deepest corridors of her emotions, and then expanded out to reach every one of us, hungry to live our days in the most meaningful, joyous ways possible. You will do more than read this book. You will work it into your inner soul, page by page." — Diana Nyad, author of Find a Way "Victoria Price throws a marvelous light on the notion of what it is to PRACTICE. It's not about running scales on the piano or hitting endless tennis balls. This is a gentle, deeply insightful guide to the practice of the art of Joy. I use this book whenever my mind goes dark and I need a good old reset of the spirit." — Jane Anderson, Emmy-award winning screenwriter "Victoria Price is a master of spiritual inspiration. In Living Love, she takes a big idea (what it's like to live from a place of love) and breaks it down into a dozen steps, showing the reader how to accomplish each one with the help of simple but effective exercises that have helped her in her own journey. Victoria acts as a guide, a cheerleader, a trusted friend, and a professional coach with a wicked sense of humor who is patient enough to walk every bit of the journey with you. Part of the brilliance of this book is that Victoria won't push you to change the way many self-help books try to do. Instead, she'll teach you to heal — and then spiritual growth is inevitable. Be forewarned: You'll put this book down a different person than you were when you picked it up." — Katy Koontz, editor-in-chief, Unity Magazine “For anyone who is letting fear stop them, this book will teach you how to take the driver’s seat of your mind. You will finish the last page a changed person, understanding that Living Love is not optional but the only truth there is.” — Carly Pollack, author of Feed Your Soul “Victoria Price has written an open-hearted, very personal guide for taking the journey back ‘home’ to our True Self, and widening the universal circle of Love. Using her own experiences and incorporating numerous wisdom traditions, we are taken on a journey into the daily discipline of practicing Love — and come out the other end of this trip inward with a greater sense of joy and compassion.” — Jane S. Galloway, author of The Gateways
