Dr. Jane Greer, a classically trained therapist, began with the belief that the bond that exists between the living and the dead is not purely a psychological one, but is, in fact, much more dynamic and empowering. In the shattering aftermath of her own mother's death, Dr. Greer learned---and shows us as well---that transcommunication is not simply a "hello from heaven" but a powerful therapeutic tool that is available to any of us. Through this communication, the pain of grieving can be made more bearable, ambivalent relationships can be healed, and a loved one's messages can bring relief and joy.

Death & Grief

St. Martin's: Griffin

How did I let this happen? Why didn't I see this coming? Did everyone see it but me? Am I too trusting? I can't let this happen again! At one time or another, we have all been betrayed by someone we trusted. We have all felt the sting of deceit, the shattering of confidence. When the people we count on betray our trust, the wound is deep and long-lasting. But it doesn't have to be this way. How Could You Do This to Me? shows you that you don't have to be the victim of broken trust, betrayal, or lies. Quite simply, trust is an active, not a passive, process. You can take control of your life by learning how to change your attitudes and expectations of others--be they spouse, lover, colleague, family member, or friend. How Could You Do This to Me? tells you how to spot the warning signs that someone you trust may actually be untrustworthy. You'll learn about the roots of trust, why you may be trusting too blindly, and why betrayers betray. You'll meet the people most likely to betray your trust: rivals, who want to be better than you; admirers who want to be just like you; and users who, thinking only of themselves, take away all you've worked for. You will also learn to recognize the personal risk factors that make you vulnerable to broken trust. Finally, you will learn how to deal effectively with the fallout of betrayal--how to curb the desire for revenge, when and how to confront those who have let you down, as well as when to forgive, if possible, and move on. Most importantly, this book teaches you how to trust yourself again. Betrayal shatters our self-esteem and can make us feel unsafe emotionally, physically, and financially. How Could You Do This to Me? will show you: How to recognize the many faces and telltale signs of betrayers. What you might be doing to make it easier for others to take advantage of you. How to decide when a relationship is worth rebuilding, and when it's not. And--most importantly--how you can learn to trust yourself again. With intelligence and compassion, Dr. Jane Greer and Margery Rosen use case histories and stories to illustrate the different situations in which you can be betrayed--by opportunistic work colleagues, unfaithful lovers, admirers, friends, or family. How Could You Do This to Me? explores the emotional chronology of betrayal, teaches you how to recognize and defend yourself against people likely to betray you, and helps you to have faith in yourself again.

DOUBLEDAY

From the author of How Could You Do This to Me? comes a wonderful guide to taking action when we get "stuck" in our careers and relationships. Are you Gridlocked? Have you ever found yourself: Feeling misunderstood when explaining to your loved one what makes you happy? Getting anxious about meeting strangers? Longing to tell off your boss--but giving your monologue to the water cooler? Feeling guilty when you do what you want to do? Compromising in order to share your spouse's or friends' beliefs, interests/hobbies? Feeling responsible for your mother's happiness? If so, you may be experiencing emotional Gridlock. Gridlock is for anyone who has ever been stuck--in a bad relationship, career, friendship, or family interaction. In these pages you will learn not only how to identify the patterns you and your loved ones have fallen into, but how to find the courage to change them and move on. Which one of us hasn't felt trapped--in a bad relationship, a moribund career, a destructive lifestyle? And, making it worse, we often know what we need to do to change things. We just don't know how to do it, or why we keep confronting the same problems over and over. If this is a familiar scenario, for you or for a loved one, Gridlock will be a godsend. It truly is for anyone who has ever wondered, "Is it me or is it them?"; for anyone who doesn't speak up for themselves; for anyone who thinks they could be getting more out of their relationship, their friendships, their career, or their life. Dr. Jane Greer begins by offering clear, concise explanations of why we do what we do. She then provides specific tools and skills that will help you to cut through the confusion, self-doubt, or self-sabotaging behavior that keeps you or those you know stuck. So, whether your problem is love, career, or personal fulfillment, Gridlock will offer you a way out--and up. For all those who stayed on--in jobs or relationships that hurt, rather than enhanced, their lives--GRIDLOCK is a godsend. It is for anyone who ever wondered, "Is it them, or is it me?" It is for anyone who does not feel entitled to speak up for themselves, doesn't know how to, or doesn't think they can. It is for anyone who suspects they could be getting more out of their relationships and their lives--if only they could get a jump-start. GRIDLOCK offers clear, concise explanations enabling us to understand why we do what we do, in addition to specific tools and skills to cut through our confusion and self-doubt and help us gain the self-assurance necessary to make positive life choices. Whether the problem is love, career, or personal self-fulfillment, GRIDLOCK offers a way out--and up. --&gt;
