1. Moving on : Creating Your House of Belonging with Simple Abundance

short description is not available

Building on the success of Sarahs previous books, "Moving On" expresses a new-age inclusiveness that allows people of all faiths and belief systems to enjoy her positive outlook on life. Inspired by her own life experiences and requested by avid Ban Breathnach readers eager for another volume, Sarah helps readers to understand themselves and to use those insights to create a home that truly suits their spirits and their lives. "We do not know how to move on," Sarah observes. "We have learned to let go, but not move on." This keen insight differentiates this book from other self-help books dealing with life changes. Sarah helps readers cope with what she calls, "the myriad demands of uprooting ones life," and teaches them to not only move, but to finally create what she calls, "your own house of belonging." Like the other books in Sarahs acclaimed "Simple Abundance" series, "Moving On" is what Sarah calls "part meditation, how-to-manual, and memoir."

2. The Book of Questions (Paperback)

A New York Times bestseller with over 1.9 million copies in print, THE BOOK OF QUESTIONS poses 265 questions that invite people to explore the most fascinating of subjects: themselves. These questions are as intriguing as our very lives because they are about our lives-our fundamental values and beliefs, our dreams and nightmares about sex, money, love, power. Some of the questions thrust you into a value-testing hypothetical situation (Would you accept 20 years of extraordinary happiness and fulfillment if it meant you would die at the end of the period?), some ask you to delve into your past (When is the last time you stole anything?) and help you find out if you've changed (Would you now return it if you could?), and others reveal your basic nature by examining your behavior (When you are given a compliment do you usually acknowledge it or suggest that you really do not deserve it?). Whether used as an avenue for personal growth, a tool for deepening relationships, or simply as an entertainment, THE BOOK OF QUESTIONS may be the only publication that challenges-and even changes-the way readers view the world, without offering a single opinion of its own. The phenomenon returns!
