Life for women after 50 - the real truth at last * Learn what it takes to survive and thrive with this gripping collection of interviews with women aged 50 and over * Shows that midlife is way more than it's cracked up to be: includes blunt discussions about the real hurdles and funny stories about the stereotypes that just aren't true! * A tell-all collection discusses calcium supplements, hot flushes, sex with and without Viagra, empty nests, the children you never had, denial and demons, and everything in between * Serves as both handbook and support group wrapped into one!

Leave Your Mind Behind order quantity

A$ 23.95 each
Paperback
Author: Matthew McKay
Published by: New Harbinger Publications,U.S.
We typically have little control over our thoughts, but we often invest them with a lot of authority - even when they contradict what our experiences tell us to be true. Take a moment right now and think, "There's a hungry grizzly bear sitting next to me". Chances are you didn't take that thought literally and run screaming from the room. But what if instead you had thought, "I'll never get a better job", "I'm boring", or "No one loves me"? Just like that terrifying grizzly, these more garden-variety thoughts are just words and pictures that pop into our minds. But often we take thoughts like these literally and let them trick us into avoiding the lives we really want to live.This book offers a collection of light-hearted practices readers can use to learn to observe their thoughts without getting caught up in them. Each practice is grounded in a component of the new acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) called cognitive defusion: ... more

Memories That Matter order quantity

A$ 23.95 each
Paperback
Author: Jefferson Singer
Published by: New Harbinger Publications,U.S.
How do we get to be who we are? Are we born that way, or do our experiences mold us into the people we eventually become? It's an old question, and the answer probably lies somewhere in between. Nevertheless, it's clear that our memories do play a critical role in establishing who we are and how we set about living our lives. This book discusses our memories and how you work to define our personalities. Research suggests that certain powerful recollections called self-defining memories (SDMs) have a profound impact on larger issues pertaining to our identity and mental health. This book offers an approach readers can use to tap into SDMs and analyze these memories for their specificity, meaning, content, and affect. Once understood, these SDMs reveal clues to the reader that he or she can use to maximize the helping aspects and minimize the hurting aspects of these memories.

Memory Workbook, The order quantity

A$ 32.95 each
Paperback
Author: Douglas J. Mason
Published by: New Harbinger Publications
Like clay, memory needs applied energy to give it form. However, this energy is often blocked by negative thoughts about aging and memory. Building on this underlying principle, this workbook shows readers how to rewire the mental habits that interfere with memory functioning and offers practical solutions based on the latest scientific research. Anyone at any age, the authors say, can tap into the natural strength of the brain's multiple memory systems. Through innovative techniques, exercises, games, and puzzles, readers learn how to maximize the receptiveness of their senses, focus on what is important and block out what isn't, rehearse and imprint information, and use visual imagery to retain experiences. The latest scientific findings on memory provide a wealth of information on medications, memory disorders, and resources for additional help.

A wealth of stimulating and practical strategies for building community help readers learn how to create new connections, bring people together to deal with local problems, and start to make a difference in their community. Communities with greater social engagement have been shown to have less violent crime, higher educational performance, and better resident health. Community building fosters nurturing relationships, more caring neighbourhoods, and instills a sense of pride and power in those who use their community's talents and resources.
