Erich Fromm
Since it was first published " The Art of Loving" has become a classic, inspiring thousands of people with its clarity and power. Most of us are unable to develop our capacities for love on the only level that really counts - a love that is compounded of maturity, self-knowledge, and courage. Learning to love, like other arts, demands practice and concentration. Even more than any other art it demands genuine insight and understanding. Erich Fromm, the renowned psychoanalyst, sees love as the ultimate need and desire of all human beings. In this book, he discusses every aspect of the subject: romantic love, the love of parents for children, brotherly love, erotic love, self-love and the love of God or the divine. He looks at the theory of love as it appears throughout the cultures of the world, and how we show or fail to show love to one another. Love is an art, which we need to develop and practice in order to find true commitment. We need to find it, individually and as a society as a whole. A life-changing book. REMAINDER MARK.

Advises on all aspects of back pain and the treatment available in a question-and-answer format. With clear explanations, it answers a range of questions, from the causes of back pain to the impact of everyday activities: Do I have a slipped disc? Should I try acupuncture? Am I depressed because of my backache or is my depression causing my backache? In which position should I sleep? Is sex, housework, or my office chair bad for my back? Key maintains that most back problems are caused simply by joint stiffness, and that by using physiotherapy to mobilize the stiff spinal links and practicing techniques and exercises to keep each vertebra separated and supple, people can have healthy backs. This book offers a daily self-treatment plan that shows how to strengthen a back and alleviate pain, as well as advice on the therapeutic benefits of yoga and exercises for coping with the pain often associated with long-distance travel.

As it flows through the universe and to different parts of ourselves, chi energy carries information from one entity to another so that everything we experience has the potential to influence and make subtle changes in our chi energy fields. It is therefore vital that only "good" influences prevail. We are always radiating chi energy as well as absorbing it and some of this enrgy finds its way into other people's chi. This can be important to understand in relationships where, over time, your partner or colleagues will be able to pick up on your moods, thoughts, and deepest beliefs. With 4 chapters: Exploring Chi Energy introduces the principles of chi; Chi Energy and the Mind looks at how to change your chi energy field; Chi Energy and Your Body shows how to cure chi deficiencies; and Chi Energy and Your Emotions has exercises to enhance feelings of joy and happiness and dampen depression and sadness.

Everyone has a colour they adore, and another they can't stand - nobody's impartial when it comes to colour. It inspires us, soothes us, excites us. But few of us realize just how much influence colour has on our bodies and minds: its electromagnetic vibrations can actually encourage feelings of love, accelerate healing, change our entire outlook on life. Explains how colour works, how energy works, and how the two come together to have a therapeutic effect. You'll learn about the chakras and their colour associations, as well as their links to specific concerns such as love, self-expression, and spirituality. You'll learn that when the body is deficient in certain energy waves or colours, it responds both physically and emotionally. The book offers a simple diagnostic test that reveals exactly which colour you need, and ten simple exercises to help you absorb the right colour energy. The second half of the book is full of practical applications, showing how to use colour energy in your home, wardrobe, and makeup. You'll learn how color can actually cure insomnia, increase willpower, aid communication, relieve pain, encourage romance, promote success at work, and help us all create the reality we desire.
