Book excerpt: We cannot escape life's wounds. They come with the normal wear and tear of human existence. In this engaging and eye-opening book, you will discover how you have been impacted by early experiences with primary caregivers who provided either "Too Much, Too Little," or "Just Right" emotionally. "Transforming Wounds into Wisdom: Change Your Attitudes and Save Your Life" makes it clear, however, that whatever unhealed emotional injuries you sustained as a result of hurtful childhood experiences are not life sentences-they are opportunities for ongoing personal growth. More specifically, Jolyn Davidson shows you the way to heal those old emotional wounds and to change the self-defeating attitudes that have arisen from them. She offers valuable and useful tools that will help you free yourself from the tenacious ties that have been binding you to your painful past. The empowering resources she provides will make it possible for you to generate new attitudes, which will then lead to deeper, more satisfying relationships with your family, friends, and yourself. Ultimately, this profound book is about "Hope-Healing-Wholeness." It is a road map that will arm you with not only greater understanding but also an enhanced ability to transform your emotional wounds into wisdom both by dismantling old attitudes and by fashioning new ones. And the wisdom, strength, and capacity to care for your needs in healthy ways that you have acquired on your heroic journey will make it possible for you to create a more meaningful and richer life.

Book excerpt: A groundbreaking book, Emotional Wisdom reveals powerful ancient tools for transforming our painful emotions into happiness and health. So-called negative emotions are valuable messages that let us know we are out of balance. With compassion and humor, Taoist authors Mantak Chia and Dena Saxer explain the messages that anger, depression, fear, worry, and stress offer us. They present three easy-to-learn twenty-minute internal energy practices, with helpful illustrations, to turn these imbalances into harmony and joy. They provide unusual nutritional advice for emotional healing and a Taoist First Aid section with proven natural remedies for minor ailments such as insomnia, indigestion, headaches, and overeating. Relevant quotes from the Tao Te Ching add inspiration to this practical, life-changing book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living in Southern California, Gary Carmell has become very familiar with tectonic shifts: cataclysmic changes in the earth’s crust that cause earthquakes and tsunamis. Carmell has also experienced numerous tectonic shifts in the economic landscape in his nearly thirty-year investing career. Correctly anticipating economic trends has allowed his real estate investment and management firm, CWS Capital Partners LLC, to grow from assets of $250 million in the late 1980s to over $3 billion today. CWS foresaw the collapse of manufactured housing in the late 1990s and anticipated a massive shift from homeownership to renting, prompting them to reposition aggressively for growth in apartment construction and management. Carmell feels special pride in the results his company’s delivers for its investors, as a result—long-term average annual returns exceed 13 percent—even during the Great Recession of 2007–2009. Navigating turbulent economic markets and experiencing his two-year-old son’s near-fatal stroke has taught Carmell that real success requires not only financial acumen, but also deep reflection. He credits Shakespeare, Hume, and Schopenhauer as his mentors, with more modern sages like Buffett, Soros, and Munger also guiding his actions. In The Philosophical Investor: From Wisdom to Wealth, he shares the insights he has gained along the way in the hope of inspiring a new cadre of critical thinking investors.

Book excerpt: A practical guide for leading others with wisdom, integrity, and humanity This book argues that great leadership requires wisdom. Rather than a formulaic managerial approach to leadership, Lead with Wisdom presents the case for leadership based on our shared humanity and the stories that unite us. What emerges is a model of leadership based on learning to read key patterns of human experience: the way language shapes our reality, how we form new meaning through conversation, how relationships determine influence and how we deal with uncertainty. It presents readers with the tools and illustrated examples to implement the four arts of leading wisely: how to draw out and create a new story in the organization, how to find and leverage the brilliance of people, how to speak with promise to restore meaning and hope, and how to show grace in dealing with the most demanding people and circumstances. Offers a leadership approach rooted in our shared humanity and the stories which unite and define us Ideal for corporate leaders, middle managers, administrators, and anyone else with management responsibilities Written by a popular speaker on leadership and the author of Arts of the Wise Leader, with personal CEO experience and a PhD in the history of ideas Structured as one key idea per page or double page spread with funky line drawings supporting the concepts and skills For anyone who wants to lead with wisdom, integrity, and humanity, Lead with Wisdom offers a welcome alternative to traditionally robotic and formulaic leadership strategies.

Book excerpt: In every area of our lives, there is always a deep desire not just to be good, but to be great. Purpose, meaning, and fulfillment are what we hope to achieve. Though it sounds simple, why is it that these things appear to be the most difficult to pull off? We often see ourselves fail. We get lonely, get bored, and almost want to give up. We get caught up in the crossroads of decisions and choices, and often, we aren't so wise. Questions start to surface. What are the rules in living? How is true happiness achieved? Where do I find peace? What does a great life look like? Inside this book there are twenty nuggets of wisdom to help you answer these questions and go from good to great in at least one area of your life. Life is good, let's make it great!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Norman Wirzba, Bruce Ellis Benson, and an international group of philosophers and theologians describe how various expressions of philosophy are transformed by the discipline of love. What is at stake is how philosophy colors and shapes the way we receive and engage each other, our world, and God. Focusing primarily on the Continental tradition of philosophy of religion, the work presented in this volume engages thinkers such as St. Paul, Meister Eckhart, Kierkegaard, Husserl, Heidegger, Ricoeur, Derrida, Marion, Zizek, Irigaray, and Michele Le Doeuff. Emerging from the book is a complex definition of the wisdom of love which challenges how we think about nature, social justice, faith, gender, creation, medicine, politics, and ethics.
