NEW TITLES Cue Cards for Life: Gentle Reminders for Better Relationships By Christina Steinorth, MA, MFT In her private practice, Christina Steinorth noticed that many patients came in with the same problems. Couples neglected their partners, parents talked at their teens, even adults didn’t know how to interact with aging parents. Something always seemed to be wrong - but they didn’t know exactly what. Almost without thinking, Steinorth found herself writing Cue Cards to help her patients deal with these issues. Each Card contains simple, down-to-earth advice and is accompanied by a clear explanation of the psychological principles behind it. Many of us underestimate the power that common courtesy and kindness have to improve all relationships, and all of us encounter situations in life where we stumble a little. Sometimes we need a gentle reminder -- a cue card, a clue card - to steer us back in the right direction. Christina Steinorth is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Board Certified in Professional Counseling. She holds a Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and has a private practice as a psychotherapist specializing in relationship issues. Spring 2012…168pp….5 1/4x 6 ½…. May 2012 RIGHTS: WORLD

The Second Anti-Inflammation Diet and Recipe Book By Jessica Black, ND In The Anti-Inflammation Diet & Recipe Book, published in 2006, Jessie Black offered specifics on what to eat and how to cook for people who wanted a natural, anti-inflammatory diet.

It promotes simpler and easier digestion and facilitates cellular regeneration. Her new book completely updates the research supporting the benefits of anti-inflammatory foods.

Writing From Within: The Next Generation 25th Anniversary Edition By Bernard Selling In the earlier editions of Writing from Within, Selling developed the idea that personal writing is a means to personal understanding. Learning to write well starts with the subjects we know best — ourselves. He teaches writers to explore early memories and reconnect with the perspectives of their younger selves, to harness the inner critic and to deal with past trauma and fear. Writers find creative inspiration in recalling details from significant memories and discover that life story writing is as much about self-discovery as it is about self-expression Bernard Selling has an MA in English literature and art history from the University of Michigan, an MA in film and theater from UCLA, and studied acting, directing, and writing with Lee Strasberg and Jack Garfein. Selling has taught "Writing From Within" workshops to teachers, students, writers, older adults, adults in recovery and those seeking greater self-awareness in the US and Europe.

303 Preschooler-Approved Exercises and Active Games SmartFun Activity Books By Kimberly Wechsler

Think of fitness in terms of building a pyramid. In order to have a strong foundation, preschoolers must start with the basic building blocks of fitness. Each year, as kids grow older, they can build on these foundations and move on to more complex movements and skills. Moving from hitting a stationary ball to one that is thrown, bouncing a ball with two hands to bouncing it with one, and progressing from a bike with training wheels to one without are all milestones that are accomplished during childhood. 303 Preschooler-Approved Exercises and Active Games is written for children ages 2-5. These preschool years are filled with major physical changes: children become more aware of their bodily functions, increase energy expenditure, strengthen muscles and bones, and improve cardiovascular endurance. They also develop intellectually, emotionally, and socially. Building healthy habits is key during these years. Kimberly Wechsler has a BS from Texas Christian University and has received nine certifications in fitness instruction and personal training.

The exercises and games in this book are adapted to the developmental emotional, social, and physical levels of tweens. They can think abstractly, make decisions, and understand rules, so the games and physical challenges reflect this. Muscle strengthening and sport performance building exercises become very important. Activities involving mind-body awareness, like balance and meditation, can be introduced.

The Secret of Vigor: How to Overcome Burnout, Restore Metabolic Balance, and Reclaim Your Natural Energy By Shawn M. Talbott, PhD, LDN, FACSM The Secret of Vigor is a proven and powerful, cutting-edge, 7-day program that can counter the effects of chronic stress to help people: restore balance in the body• improve mental/physical energy…• reduce fatigue…• alleviate depression…• sharpen mental focus…• lose weight People complain of feeling tired, stressed, or depressed. Their daily routine is hectic and stressful, they suffer from constant fatigue, rarely sleep well, continue to gain weight, and at least occasionally are moody. In short, they are lacking in something that psychology researchers call “Vigor.” Vigor is defined as “a 3-tiered sustained mood state characterized by physical energy, mental acuity, and emotional well-being.” Vigor is a true measure of wellness because it encompasses much more than simply feeling energetic or being in a good mood or having a sharp mind. People with high levels of vigor are those cando individuals who get things done – they’re motivated. For many people, however, vigor is a state that they have not experienced in many years. The "Four Pillars of Health” — Oxidation balance, Glycation balance, Inflammation balance and Metabolic balance — are closely linked and affect each other. The program in this book addresses each in turn and also describes how to monitor them all and keep them working together. Dr. Shawn Talbott holds an MS in Exercise Science from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst and a PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry from Rutgers. Spring 2011 … 264pp … 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 …

The Barefoot Book: 50 Great Reasons to Kick Off Your Shoes by Daniel Howell, Ph.D. Research shows that going barefoot strengthens our feet, makes them more flexible and improves body alignment. Why, then, are we buying shoes for infants who can’t yet walk? Wearing high heels that hurt with every step? An expert on human anatomy, he explains how shoes can upset natural weight distribution ~ overload joints ~ decrease foot flexibility ~ reduce shock absorption of the arch ~ cause bunions and in-grown toenails. This leaves feet weak and causes knee, back and joint pain. Daniel Howell has a doctoral degree in biochemistry and teaches courses on human anatomy and physiology at Liberty University. He is particularly interested in the anatomy, physiology, and health of the foot. Howell is an avid runner and leads a barefoot hiking group. To date, he’s logged over 2,000 barefoot miles.
