The Rules of "Normal" Eating: A Commonsense Approach for Dieters, Overeaters, Undereaters, Emotional

Written in easy-to-understand, everyday language, The Rules of "Normal" Eating lays out the four basic rules that "normal" eaters follow instinctively-eating when they're hungry, choosing foods that satisfy them, eating with awareness and enjoyment, and stopping when they're full or satisfied. Along with specific skills and techniques that help promote change, the book presents a proven cognitive-behavioral model of transformation that targets beliefs, feelings, and behaviors about food and eating and points the way toward genuine physical and emotional fulfillment. Listeners learn how to reprogram their dysfunctional beliefs, manage uncomfortable feelings without turning to food, and establish new eating habits that tune their bodies into natural sensations of hunger, pleasure, satisfaction, and satiation. Filled with humorous insights, compassion, and practical wisdom, the book outlines balanced attitudes and patterns that benefit all types of eaters.

A leading expert on human sexuality and author of the blog Sex and Psychology offers an unprecedented look at sexual fantasy based on the most comprehensive, scientific survey ever undertaken. What do Americans really want when it comes to sex? And is it possible for us to get what we want? Justin J. Lehmiller, one of the country's leading experts on human sexuality and author of the popular blog Sex and Psychology, has made it his career's ambition to answer these questions.

Based on this study, Tell Me What You Want offers an unprecedented look into our fantasy worlds and what they reveal about us. It helps readers to better understand their own sexual desires and how to attain them within their relationships, but also to appreciate why the desires of their partners may be so incredibly different.

Ultimately, this book will help readers to enhance their sex lives and to maintain more satisfying relationships and marriages in the future by breaking down barriers to discussing sexual fantasies and allowing them to become a part of readers' sexual realities.

Fear Of Failure

We tend to think of failure as reflecting a deficit in our skills, value or potential as a person. We try to avoid talking about it. We are embarrassed to admit that we have ‘failed’, where the fact is that ‘failure’ represents a progression in our life and a pathway to fulfilling our dreams. Fear, on the other hand, is a very toxic element, that leads us to feelings of regret, isolation, incompetence and loneliness, ultimately leaving us with unfulfilled dreams. The difference between successful and unsuccessful people is not that one group failed, and the other didn’t. Rather, one overcame fears of failure, by learning from mistakes and pushing through in spite of the fear. The other was captivated by fear and stopped right there. So, halt your fear of failure and join the list of successful people. Successful people have all failed, but got up, climbed their own ladder and claimed their crown. You can do the same with our transformational tool — ‘Get over fear of failure’ words of affirmation. From the ‘Get over fear of failure’ affirmations you will understand how to: * Change your view of failure * Set clear intentions and let go of your fear * Learn to use failure to your advantage * Become focused and embrace challenge * Achieve your goals and live the life of your dreams Procure this product today.

The Peyote Effect: From the Inquisition to the War on Drugs

The hallucinogenic and medicinal effects of peyote have a storied history that begins well before Europeans arrived in the Americas. While some have attempted to explain the cultural and religious significance of this cactus and drug, Alexander S. Dawson offers a completely new way of understanding the place of peyote in history. In this provocative new book, Dawson argues that peyote has marked the boundary between the Indian and the West since the Spanish Inquisition outlawed it in 1620. For nearly four centuries ecclesiastical, legal, scientific, and scholarly authorities have tried (unsuccessfully) to police that boundary to ensure that, while indigenous subjects might consume peyote, others could not. Moving back and forth across the U.S.-Mexico border, The Peyote Effect explores how battles over who might enjoy a right to consume peyote have unfolded in both countries, and how these conflicts have produced the racially exclusionary systems that characterizes modern drug regimes. Through this approach we see a surprising history of the racial thinking that binds these two countries more closely than we might otherwise imagine.
