This workbook is a year's worth of rehabilitation that can be completed on your own, with a sponsor or therapist or used in a group therapy setting. Recover in Color contains fifty-two lessons, a coloring page to reinforce each lesson and a weekly journal page with four discussion questions.

There is something here for everyone working a recovery program, whether you are new to recovery or have been traveling the long road for years. This workbook is also beneficial for family members of those in recovery programs. Recover in Color is a fresh approach to rehabilitation that incorporates the classic principles that have passed the test of time.

After completing this year-long recovery workbook, you will know yourself better, and you will have new coping strategies to help you deal with the difficult challenges faced in life. Why not recover in color? "Holistic and purposeful in design, Recover in Color creates a path to healing and personal rediscovery. When my son died, I became fully detached from this world. Body, soul and spirit-all shattered and scattered into the ether of a heavily weighted, dark, impenetrable haze. When suffering descends upon us from a variety of life experiences, we cannot recover alone-we need the hand of another to guide us. Dr. Yancosek has created a tool to pierce the impenetrable haze and reveals the possibility of God's hand to intervene." -- Charles D. Quick, OTD, CHT, Lieutenant Colonel (retired), United States Army "Recover in Color is a fresh take on trusted principles of well-being. The unique style of writing combined with the coloring pages create an incredible workbook that can be completed individually or with the guidance of a therapist. I recommend this book to people who are pursuing personal growth through increased self-awareness and development." --Amelia Duran-Stanton, PhD, D.Sc., PA-C "With Recover in Color, Dr. Yancosek has done something very rare, but desperately needed: she has made deep truths easily accessible. The human soul can only be nourished and healed with such truths and that is why this book will be a treasure to many. I recommend it to those who hunger to walk in greater freedom and emotional and spiritual health." --Matt Erbaugh, Pastor of Spiritual Formation at CrossBridge Community Church Learn more at www.UpwardCallRehab.com From Loving Healing Press

Book excerpt: What enables some talented people to rise to the top and live their full ambitions at work and in life, while others stop short? In 2007, Joanna Barsh led a team at McKinsey & Company to answer that very question. In the process, they uncovered what distinguishes leaders who are successful from those who achieve true greatness, developing an approach called Centered Leadership. They drew on research from across the academic fields of leadership, organization behavior, neuroscience, evolutionary psychology and positive psychology. In addition, Barsh interviewed over 160 leaders from many fields – including business, government and the arts – and from many countries. With quantitative research, the team learned that these leaders have mastered practices to find their balance in the midst of chaos and lead from their most resourceful selves, unleashing the potential of others. In 2009, Johanne Lavoie joined to lead development of programs that help executives build these capabilities. Their research and development work continues as more and more leaders experience Centered Leadership. In the business bestseller, How Remarkable Women Lead, Barsh described Centered Leadership’s five capabilities and the research that underpins it. Here, with colleague Johanne Lavoie, Barsh provides a practical, actionable field guide for implementation. In Centered Leadership, Barsh and Lavoie will guide you through the Centered Leadership program. You’ll find the interactive tools, exercises, and practices that have helped the men and women participants in Centered Leadership programs gain the skills, courage and confidence to lead. And, along the way, you’ll read inspiring stories of remarkable men and women leaders who demonstrate the power of these skills in action. Those early in their careers will learn how to use these skills to explore their passions and accelerate their professional development. Those forming families will be able to use them to reconcile manage work and life to get the most out of both. And those who have already achieved success will be able use these practices to reach their next leadership horizon. No matter what stage you are currently at in your career, or what level of leadership you aspire to, this book will equip you with the tools to unlock your own Centered Leader and achieve more positive impact at work and outside it.

Download or read book Running in the Zone written by Steve King and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2006-09-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-six runners ranging in age from 46 to 76 share their secrets, motivations and experiences in the fields of running. All are active runners and many presently hold world age-class records. Some have held world records and have achieved world level performances at the Olympics, Commonwealth and European games. But, Running in the Zone isnt about super achievement, it is about getting the most out the running experience regardless of age or even ability. This book is for anyone interested in running and running-related sports, whether they are elite age-class runners wanting to keep up performances or newcomers, considering taking up running in their middle or even advanced years. Many of the contributors didnt start running until they were over 40 and some didnt achieve their best personal performances until they were in their 50s. You will meet men and women who have a life-long interest in running as well as those who took it up as personal challenges. All are inspiring in one way or another and have something valuable to teach, not necessarily about running, per se, but rather personal satisfaction, giving back through voluntarism and commitment to a goal or purpose. The book was the idea of editors, Steve King and Dan Cumming, and has come together through Steves contacts in the world of running and Dans love of running and editorial ability to pull the best out of a story. Both Steve and Dan have a long-term relationship with the sport. They both perceived that a growing number of older runners are involved in the running and that Running in the Zone would answer many of the needs of this group of active men and women, helping them to get the best out of one of the most fundamental of athletic endeavors.
