Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life: Create Your Life, Your Relationships, and Your World in Harmony with Your Values
by Marshall B. Rosenberg, Arun Gandhi (Foreword)
$17.95, 250 pages, 2nd edition

Description
Most of us have been educated from birth to compete, judge, demand, diagnose—to think and communicate in terms of what is "right" and "wrong" with people. Even when we are well-meaning this can be disastrous to our relationships--both personal and professional. Nonviolent Communication helps you develop relationships based upon mutual respect, compassion, and cooperation. This book is a complete presentation of the process of NVC.

Rosenberg, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist and the founder of the Center for Nonviolent Communication, an international nonprofit organization that teaches peacemaking skills across five continents, including a number of war-torn areas such as Rwanda, Nigeria, Indonesia, Pakistan, the Middle East, Colombia, Serbia, and Northern Ireland.

Don't Be Nice, Be Real
Balancing Passion for Self with Compassion for Others
by Kelly Bryson, MFT
$15.00

Description
So many people feel powerless and victimized by the people and circumstances of their lives. They are tired of being one of the nice dead people in the world. This book takes us from "doormat" to "obnoxious" as we learn to "Dance in rhythm to the beat of our own soul". Next we "evolve our selfishness" to balance getting our short term needs met with staying in harmony with those around us, with chapters like "How to rock the boat without drowning anyone".

Don't Be Nice, Be Real" is for everyone who is starting to understand that the primary problem in all their relationships is "Self Abandonment". It's for everyone who has ever given in or up on their needs and that's all of us. Now finally, this book gives us permission not only to be Selfish but to see "The Spirituality of Selfishness". One of the book's many totally unique and timely messages is that 'compromise' is lose/lose, unnecessary, and often just a way to share their sentiment.

Reviews

Kelly's style is hilarious and holy - and will convince readers of all ages of the spiritual practicality of putting oneself first." —Stan Dale, Founder of the Human Awareness Institute (HAI), author, featured on Oprah, Donahue, Geraldo, on faculty of the Institute For the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality
