Our second featured selection
This book is called, "Burnout,
What you can do to put excitement back into you life," by Janet Buell Here's what one of our readers had to
say about it.
"The thing that amazed me most about this
book was that it didn't just eliminate my feeling of burnout at work - which was the problem that caused me to buy it. It
helped in areas I wasn't even aware I needed help in, like my feelings about my church, my relationship, my music, and even
the state of my finances. The exercises weren't always easy. But they worked. And as I did one and then another, I started
building up a feeling of pure job. I feel at least 10 years younger now and so excited about life again." A
reader from St. Louis, MO.
The third is called "The Emotional First Aid
Manual."
It is a counterpart to a physical first aid manual. It allows a
layperson to learn how to be of help to friends or loved ones.
Since CPR was first taught to laypersons in 1967, hundreds
of thousands of lives have been saved by the techniques applied by those laypersons. This translates to millions of family
members and friends spared the grief of prematurely losing a loved one. CPR—more than any other physical first-aid technique—demonstrates
clearly that a layperson using easily learned procedures can save lives and prevent suffering.
The field of mental health has now made
a similar breakthrough. There are techniques in the field of emotional health that are every bit as impressive in their ability
to prevent suffering as CPR and they have been compiled in this book, The Emotional First Aid Manual. Now every layperson
can learn techniques that will prevent emotional suffering and help restore the happiness of millions. |
