Book Description
How to Live Well explores seventeen habits you can learn and use in order to live a physically and mentally healthy life and achieve authentic success. Spiritual writing and poetry were never on the life to-do list of Dr. Pilar Tan. She was first and foremost a scientist, practicing internal medicine. Through the years, Pilar's spiritual life was brought into focus as she learned about life's trials and triumphs through her patients. Pilar's first attempt at spiritual writing produced a book titled Learning and Being. After the untimely death of her son Edward, she began to seriously question her faith. With the help of her daughter Melin, her grandchildren, friends, and colleagues, Pilar found her way out from the depths of despair. Her experiences kindled within her the hope of better times and a desire to use her personally tragic experience for the benefit of others. The fruits of this catharsis is her current work, How to Live Well, Whatever Life Brings. As she tells her own story of adaptation, Pilar describes the coping skills she learned to use consciously to live life successfully. She uses medical knowledge learned throughout her many years as an internist, while weaving poetic verses, biblical excerpts, and inspirational quotes to complement each topic.

A powerful, timely exploration of the art of living and dying on our own terms by one of Australia’s most respected voices Of all the experiences we share, two universal events bookend our lives: we were all born and we will all die. We don't have a choice in how we enter the world but we can have a say in how we leave it. In order to die well, we must be prepared to contemplate our mortality and to broach it with our loved ones, who are often called upon to make important decisions on our behalf. These are some of the most important conversations we can have with each other - to find peace, kindness and gratitude for what has gone before, and acceptance of what is to come. Dr Ranjana Srivastava draws on two decades of experience to share her observations and advice on leading a meaningful life and finding dignity and composure at the end. With an emphasis on advocacy, leaving a legacy and staying true to our deepest convictions, Srivastava tells stories of strength, hope and resilience in the face of grief and offers an optimistic meditation on approaching the end of life. Intelligent, warm and deeply affecting, A Better Death is a passionate exploration of the art of living and dying well.

Running on Empty
Author: Jonice Webb
Publisher: Morgan James Publishing
ISBN: 161448242X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
A large segment of the population struggles with feelings of being detached from themselves and their loved ones. They feel flawed, and blame themselves. Running on Empty will help them realize that they're suffering not because of something that happened to them in childhood, but because of something that didn't happen. It's the white space in their family picture, the background rather than the foreground. This will be the first self-help book to bring this invisible force to light, educate people about it, and teach them how to overcome it.

The Awesome Power of the Tongue
Author: Charles Fuller
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1449769861
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
"It almost takes your breath away when you realize the tremendous power of the tongue. It can do things that are dastardly, destructive, degrading, and distressing. The tongue can lie. It can accuse. It can exaggerate. It can curse. It can deprave. It can slander. It can gossip. It's the match that lights the fire! But when the tongue is under Christ's control, it is mindboggling what it can do to the contrary. It can encourage. It can tell the truth. It can bless. It can speak love. It can bring hope! And the highest, most noble thing the tongue can do: it can praise Almighty God and proclaim redemption in Jesus Christ. This little body part that has the power to be so destructive when out of control, when under control has the power and the privilege of praising, adoring, exalting, and making known the living God"--Page 4 of cover
