Loose the Back Pain - Complete System
Loose the Back Pain - Complete System
Over 26,000 people have used this system to eliminate their back pain, neck pain and sciatica. If you've tried everything but nothing's worked, then you need to try this system. Unlike nearly all back pain and sciatica treatments, the Lose the Back Pain System focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying cause of the pain.
Component #1: Lose the Back Pain™ Videos
Your first step is to watch the videos... there are 2 videos and here's a quick explanation of what's covered on each:
Video 1 - On the first video you'll learn all the details about muscle imbalances and how they are causing and contributing to your pain.
Then we'll walk you thru the self assessments and help you pinpoint which physical dysfunctions you have and you'll quickly see how they are responsible for your pain.
Video 2 - Once you've identified your dysfunctions, we then walk you through the corrective exercises, stretches and self treatments that are specific to your physical condition and are necessary in order for you to rebalance your body and eliminate your pain.
Component #2: Lose the Back Pain Audio CD's
In addition to the two videos, you'll also receive 3 audio CD's.
Here's what's covered on the CD's:
Audio CD 1 - How To Get the Best Results Using The System - On this first CD we explain in detail how to use the system and how to get relief as quickly as possible.
Audio CD 2 - Strategies for Reducing and Managing Pain - On this CD you'll learn about more than a dozen strategies for reducing and effectively managing your pain while you also work on eliminating the underlying cause.
Audio CD 3 - Condition Specific Recommendations - If you've been diagnosed with a specific condition, CD 3 will give you specific recommendations, techniques and treatments you may also want to consider. These recommendations are in addition to addressing your imbalances and are explained in great detail.
Component #3: Lose the Back Pain Reference Manual
Another vital part of the Lose the Back Pain System is the extensive reference manual. In addition to reviewing the information covered on the videos and audio CD's, it also covers several topics in much great detail.
Plus, all of the corrective exercises, stretches and pain reduction strategies are included in the manual so you can easily take it with you so you'll never be wondering what you are supposed to be doing or if you are doing things correctly.

HOW SMART ARE YOU?
HOW SMART ARE YOU?
by Norman Sullivan
Book of IQ Tests
How smart are you?
Have you ever taken an IQ test?
What is intelligence anyway?
What has it to do with intuition, imagination, creativity or any other talent?
How can we qualify such a concept?
Any measure of intellegence involves a complex set of assumptions about what intellegence is and how it is valued in our society. However, IQ tests have been implemented in American Education, and have been used in colleges, graduate programs, business and corporations.
This Book by Norman Sullivan features three sections; Elementary, Challenging and Masterful test levels, with sixty questions in each of the first two sections and forty five in the third. The tests are meant to amuse and challenge you, certainly taxing your cerebral capacity.

How To Love
How To Love
Gordon Livingston, M.D.
Book Review
Dr. Gordon Livingston's books have resonated with readers as universally and deeply as earlier books by M. Scott Peck, Rollo May, and Erich Fromm. Now, Gordon Livingston—a physician of the human heart, a philosopher of human psychology—offers an urgently needed meditation on who best (and who best not) to love—and how best to love. Dr. Livingston's primary focus in this new book is on helping us to recognize in ourselves and in others constellations of character traits and what those traits imply both with regard to compatibility and future conduct. As in his previous books, here are Dr. Livingston's trademark gifts—an unerring sense of what is important, and what Elizabeth Edwards has characterized as "his unapologetic directness and his embracing compassion"—again deployed to provide readers everywhere with a much-needed alternative to the trial-and-error learning that makes wisdom such an expensive commodity.
As a writer, Dr. Gordon Livingston has that rare gift of taking a complex subject and explaining it to the reader in a way that is easy to understand. Gordon makes you examine the topic from what is good for you and what you need to avoid when entering a relationship based on love. His gentle but confronting style forces you to pause and think about your good, bad and ugly relationships. Love is not easy to find or accept but Dr. Livingston gives you an opportunity to explore for yourself how you could have a healthy loving relation. This book should be read by men and women who desire to love and be loved."How to Love" is a treasure that you need to read and share with your friends and loved ones.

The Art and Science of Common Sense
The Art and Science of Common Sense
Download Karl Albrecht Practical Intelligence .pdf book
"Albrecht’s practical intelligence builds on the ideas of multiple intelligence, outlining a series of guidelines and exercises to promote better approaches to problem solving"
------(Financial Times, Thursday 19th July 2007)
“What could be more important than helping people, at every age and stage of life learn to use their minds more successfully? Karl Albrecht has given us a terrific resource for doing just that. His comprehensively four ‘software upgrades’ and four ‘mega-skills’ provide a wonderfully comprehensive framework for practical intelligence.”
------Dr. Sidney J. Parnes, co-developer with Alex Osborn of the Creative Education Foundation
“This brilliant, ebullient, and brainy book brings us new means to gray matter. At turns high-minded and hilarious, Practical Intelligence will remain the source book for many years of the best thinking about thinking well.”
------Jean Houston, author, The Possible Human
Karl Albrecht’s bestselling book Social Intelligence showed us how dealing with people and social situations can determine success both at work and in life. Now, in this groundbreaking book Practical Intelligence, Albrecht takes the next step and explains how practical intelligence (PI) qualifies as one of the key life skills and offers a conceptual structure for defining and describing common sense.
Throughout Practical Intelligence, Albrecht explains that people with practical intelligence can employ language skills, make better decisions, think in terms of options and possibilities, embrace ambiguity and complexity, articulate problems clearly and work through to solutions, have original ideas, and influence the ideas of others. Albrecht shows that everyone’s PI skills can be improved with proper education and training and challenges all of us—from parents and teachers to executives and managers—to upgrade our own skills and help others develop their own PI abilities.

About The Author:
Lucinda Reddick Bassett is an American self-help author and motivational speaker and keynote presenter.
A former agoraphobic, Bassett founded the Midwest Center for Stress and Anxiety headquartered in Oak Harbor, Ohio in 1984. She is the creator of "Attacking Anxiety and Depression", which is a 15-week home study course about recovery from anxiety disorders such as agoraphobia and panic attacks. Though she has published and produced several products, the program "Attacking Anxiety and Depression" is Bassett's most known product. The program is a 15-week workshop for recovery from anxiety disorder and clinical depression, which Bassett claims often co-exist within the sufferer. Participants may use the program by attending in-person workshops, by purchasing an audio version, through one-on-one counseling or via the company's web site. The program advocates an approach that is cognitive, rather than pharmaceutical. Bassett places emphasis upon relaxation techniques and what she refers to as "positive thinking" as a means of recovery.
Bassett's flagship infomercial has aired on late-night television for over a decade.

Getting to Yes
Getting to Yes
By Roger Fisher and William Ury
Getting to Yes is a straightforward, universally applicable method for negotiating personal and professional disputes without getting taken - and without getting angry.
It offers a concise, step-by-step, proven strategy for coming to mutually acceptable agreements in every sort of conflict - whether it involves parents and children, neighbors, bosses and employees, customers or corporations, tenants or diplomats. Based on the work of the Harvard Negotiation Project, a group that deals continually with all levels of negotiations and conflict resolutions from domestic to business to international, Getting to Yes tells you how to:
- Separate the people from the problem.
- Focus on interests, not positions.
- Work together to create opinions that will satisfy both parties.
- Negotiate successfully with people who are more powerful, refuse to play by the rules, or resort to "dirty tricks".

Learn More Study Less
Learn More Study Less
By Scott H.Young
This e-book talks about how to learn as much as possible with the least effort to study. Since I consider myself a learner, I’m very interested to the topic of this e-book. I started reading it soon after I got a review copy in my inbox. But, since the e-book is 228 page long, it took some time to finish it.
This e-book introduces the concept of holistic learning in which we view learning as “a comprehensive whole, instead of a list of memorized facts”. In holistic learning, the aim is to create webs of interrelated ideas. Since the ideas are connected to each other, it will then be easier to navigate through them for complete understanding. Besides, it’s easier to reach an idea because there are many paths to it.
The e-book is divided into four parts: The Holistic Learning Strategy, Holistic Learning Techniques, Beyond Holistic Learning, and Summary & Quick Guide. Let’s look at them in more details.
Inside Learn More, Study Less:
Part I. The Holistic Learning Strategy
This part gives us the background theory of holistic learning. It defines the important concepts and how they are related to each other. While this part is rather technical, there are a lot of examples to help us understand the concepts.
I agree with the author that understanding this theory is important. The theory helps us put the techniques (in part II) in the right context. Without understanding the theory, it would be difficult to adapt the techniques to our situation.
The sequence of holistic learning is also introduced in this part. The sequence consists of five phases:
1.Acquire: The point at which information enters through your eyes and ears.
2.Understand: Taking raw information and giving it a context.
3.Explore: Forming the models and connecting them with other ideas.
4.Debug: Looking for errors in your models.
5.Apply: Making adjustments compared to how the information operates in reality.
Understanding this sequence helps us understand where our weaknesses are so that we can focus our effort on that areas.
Part II. Holistic Learning Techniques
While part I gives us the theory, part II gives us the specific techniques that can be used to apply holistic learning. The techniques are grouped into four categories:
1.Acquiring ideas: Here are the techniques for the Acquire Phase. The techniques discussed here are speed reading and flow-based notetaking.
2.Linking ideas: Here are the techniques for the Explore Phase. The techniques discussed here are metaphor, visceralization, and diagraming. These techniques form the core of holistic learning.
3.Handling the arbitrary: The techniques here can be used to handle arbitrary information which can’t be handled by the techniques in the previous category. There are three techniques: the Link method, the Peg method, and information compression.
4.Extending ideas: Here are the techniques for the Debug and Apply phase. There are three techniques here: practical usage, model debugging, and project-based learning.
Part III. Beyond Holistic Learning
This part deals with how to become a productive student (so that we can study less) and how to build the habit of self-education. There are a lot of productivity tips here that deals with managing energy, procrastination, and organization, among others. There are also tips on how to structure the learning habit, overcoming frustration, and setting learning goals.
Part IV. Summary & Quick Guide
As its title says, this part gives the summary of holistic learning process along with a quick guide for easy reference.
Conclusion:
This is a very comprehensive e-book on learning that covers both the theory and practice. It will take time to apply the concepts in this e-book. which is why the author wrote that the e-book is a handbook that you should refer to along the way. This is not the kind of books that you read just once.
