Download or read book Daring to Trust written by David Richo and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2011-07-26 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The best-selling author of How to Be an Adult in Relationships explains how to build trust—the essential ingredient in successful relationships—in spite of fear or past betrayals Most relationship problems are essentially trust issues, explains psychotherapist David Richo. Whether it’s fear of commitment, insecurity, jealousy, or a tendency to be controlling, the real obstacle is a fundamental lack of trust—both in ourselves and in our partner. Daring to Trust explores the importance of trust throughout our emotional lives: how it develops in childhood and how it becomes an essential ingredient in healthy adult relationships. It offers key insights and practical exercises for exploring and addressing our trust issues in relationships. Topics include: • How we learn early in life to trust others (or not to trust them) • Why we fear trusting • Developing greater trust in ourselves as the basis for trusting others • How to know if someone is trustworthy • Naïve trust vs. healthy, adult trust • What to do when trust is broken Ultimately, Richo explains, we must develop trust in four directions: toward ourselves, toward others, toward life as it is, and toward a higher power or spiritual path. These four types of trust are not only the basis of healthy relationships, they are also the foundation of emotional well-being and freedom from fear.
Download or read book The Way of Trust and Love written by Jacques Philippe and published by Scepter Publishers. This book was released on 2012 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Thérèse of Lisieux sought a new way to Heaven: ¿a little way that is quite straight, quite short: a completely new little way.¿ Blessed with personal limitations that might have discouraged another, Thérèse believed God would not have given her a desire for holiness if He did not intend for her to achieve it. She learned to humbly accept herself as she was and trust completely in God¿s love. First given as a retreat by renowned author Father Jacques Philippe, The Way of Trust and Love navigates excerpts of St. Thérèse¿s writings phrase by phrase, extracting powerful, resonating insights. To Thérèse, the journey seemed ¿little¿ as she traveled it. A hundred and fifteen years after her death, the message of the young saint and Doctor of the Church has traveled around the world inspiring millions. With this newly translated study of her spirituality, many today will rediscover¿or find for the first time¿the relevance of ¿the little way,¿ in all seasons of life. Fr. Jacques Philippe is well-known for his books on prayer and spirituality. A member of the Community of the Beatitudes, he regularly preaches retreats in France and abroad. He also spends much of his time giving spiritual direction and working for the development of the Community in Asia and Oceania where he travels frequently.

Alexa's personal stylist, Roxanne, fights her own battle with trust and love, manifested through poor relationships because of her father's abandonment. As the three women travel down the path of their own destinies, combating issues of trust, a murder plot is revealed. Who wants one of the women dead?

Book excerpt: Whether you’re newly together and eager to make it work or a longtime couple looking to strengthen and deepen your bond, Eight Dates offers a program of how, why, and when to have eight basic conversations with your partner that can result in a lifetime of love. “Happily ever after” is not by chance, it’s by choice– the choice each person in a relationship makes to remain open, remain curious, and, most of all, to keep talking to one another. From award-winning marriage researcher and bestselling author Dr. John Gottman and fellow researcher Julie Gottman, Eight Dates offers an ingenious and simple-to-implement approach to effective relationship communication. Here are the subjects that every serious couple should discuss: Trust. Family. Sex and intimacy. Dealing with conflict. Work and money. Dreams, and more. And here is how to talk about them—how to broach subjects that are difficult or embarrassing, how to be brave enough to say what you really feel. There are also suggestions for where and when to go on each date—book your favorite romantic restaurant for the Sex & Intimacy conversation (and maybe go to a yoga or dance class beforehand). There are questionnaires, innovative exercises, real-life case studies, and skills to master, including the Four Skills of Intimate Conversation and the Art of Listening. Because making love last is not about having a certain feeling—it’s about both of you being active and involved.
Download or read book Love Respect and Trust written by Stephen D. Druley and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2016-01-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love, Respect and Trust is a work about solidifying healthy relationships, particularly, in marriages so that the quality of our life improves. As a mathematician, I have attempted to wrap structure around the architecture of marriage so that couples can peer into its elements and begin to see the mechanisms for happiness. Having been married to the lovely woman in red for 50 years has given me a plethora of human experiences and wisdom. Being married to Karen was like living a symphony. The concepts for improvement are built around 7 new relationship models and there are a number of tools and techniques now available for the couple to use to make breakthroughs in the interpersonal side of the equation. By equipping partners with some simple tools we can begin to solve problems in the marriage like never before. If the quality of the relationship is low then we struggle and the relationship can be a burden. There is no reason that a relationship cannot reflect total joy. It's a matter of wanting to make a difference and following the guidelines here to set you in the right direction. The bottom line is that we can enjoy life more, there is less stress on the family, trust is now a common denominator, the children are subjected to a favorable learning environment and everyone is having fun. My purpose here is to begin to bring marriages back to what they were meant to be... filled with love and the right ingredients. If we can save more marriages, I believe we can improve the quality of life in America and improve the bottom lines of all businesses. Productivity would improve and our economy would turn around for the better. A happily run household is like a small engine contributing to society in a team environment and setting exceptional examples for our future leaders. I dedicate this work to my wife, Karen, who provided the inspiration for this book and set the example for a mother, grandmother and wife. My children loved their mother and would always go to her for advice. My youngest daughter shot herself in the head partly due to her passing. The grief is sometimes overwhelming but this book is a cinema of wonderful experiences for our 50 years of joy. It is full of lessons learned, problems resolved and celebrations of great times together. Our relationship can be characterized as a passionate one full of music, intelligent discussion and the love and support of our heavenly Father. Acknowledgements I think this book is a masterpiece of wisdom, practical advice and valuable lessons learned. I especially like the piece on Respect. So important. It's the kind of book that needs to be read multiple times in order to absorb the truth you are expressing. And it serves well as a go-to-guide for solving/understanding problems as they arise in a marriage. A body of work well-done with enduring value and wisdom!!! Michael Druley, Owner Executive Recruiting Partners South Bend, Indiana What a valuable piece of work this is. Everyone should read this. Your writing is heartfelt and your charts and graphs are clear and easily understood. Patricia Druley South Bend, Indiana"

Download or read book The Five Things We Cannot Change written by David Richo and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2006-06-13 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A lucid, thought-provoking, and illuminating” guide to finding fulfillment and “fluid acceptance of life as it is” (Martha Beck, life coach and New York Times–bestselling author) Why is it that, despite our best efforts, many of us remain fundamentally unhappy and unfulfilled in our lives? In this provocative and inspiring book, David Richo distills thirty years of experience as a therapist to explain the underlying roots of unhappiness—and the surprising secret to finding freedom and fulfillment. There are certain facts of life that we cannot change—the unavoidable “givens” of human existence: (1) everything changes and ends, (2) things do not always go according to plan, (3) life is not always fair, (4) pain is a part of life, and (5) people are not loving and loyal all the time. Richo shows us that by dropping our deep-seated resistance to these givens, we can find liberation and discover the true richness that life has to offer. Blending Western psychology and Eastern spirituality, and including practical exercises, Richo shows us how to open up to our lives—including what is frightening, painful, or disappointing—and discover our greatest gifts.

Download or read book Gratitude and Trust written by Paul Williams and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-09-16 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Williams is an alcoholic. Tracey Jackson is not. But together, these two close friends have written Gratitude and Trust, a book designed to apply the principles of the recovery movement to the countless people who are not addicts but nevertheless need effective help with their difficulties and pain. Williams, the award-winning songwriter, actor, and performer, has embraced a traditional alcoholism recovery plan for more than two decades of sobriety. Jackson, a well-known TV and film writer—and veteran of many years of traditional therapy—has never been a drunk or a drug abuser, but she realized that many of the tenets of Williams’s program could apply to her. In Gratitude and Trust, Williams and Jackson ask: What happens to those who struggle with vexing problems yet are not full-blown addicts? Are there any lessons to be learned from the foundational and time-tested principles of the recovery movement? Whether you’re tethered to your phone or you turn to food for comfort; whether you’re a perfectionist and can’t let things go or are too afraid to fail to even try; whether you can find intimacy only on the Internet or you’ve been involved in a string of nasty relationships—the first step toward feeling better about yourself and your life is the realization that you are what’s standing in your way. Williams and Jackson have designed a new, positive program, based on a half-dozen new affirmations, that can help conquer your vices, address personal dysfunction, and start to brighten the darkest moods. Gratitude and Trust is an essential, inspirational, and uplifting guide to identifying and changing maladaptive behaviors in order to uncover your most productive, healthiest self.
