THIS IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY This book (Zen Miracles) has less to do with the mechanics of sitting and more to do with the realities of integrating Zen practice into real life. Shoshanna extends an empty and richly filled hand, offering both the sublime and the practical, which are one and the same in the Zen world. This is a highly recommended volume for beginners and new practitioners who are coming to the truth that "to find the answers to your life questions, you must look within. Nothing less will do. Nothing more is needed. INSIGHTFUL THINGS TO SAY
SPIRITUALITY AND HEALTH Dr. Shoshanna has some insightful things to say about anger in the family, in the workplace, at God and at destiny. The Anger Diet is a resource that can change the way you view yourself and others. It will enable you to assess the role of this emotion in your life and help you to give up grudges, blaming others and playing the victim. -About The Anger Diet HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
BOOKIDEAS.COM (MARIE JONES) Stress is crippling our society and anger is right there at the top of so much of our emotional stress nowadays, and until we treat the cause, we cannot ever hope to rid ourselves of the symptoms. The Anger Diet is highly recommended for anyone who wants to lose the weight of emotional negativity, disharmony and distress." - About The Anger Diet I STRONGLY SUGGEST THIS BOOK
TCM REVIEWS - FEARLESS For myself, going through a period of change in my life, I found this book particularly helpful. It explained to me the importance of not only embracing change, but enjoying it in all of it's chaotic glory. I strongly suggest this book for anyone who's going through a divorce, lonely, looking for love, looking for enlightenment, or simply wanting to know themself and their surroundings better. |
