    Love addiction for lesbians comes in many forms. Some struggle by sexually acting out and others are serial relationship junkies, jumping from one relationship into the next. Some are addicted to the high of falling in love and once that wears off don't know how to handle the day-to-day realities of a committed relationship. Some are even addicted to fantasy and intrigue, while others are love avoidants and sexual anorexics. Love avoidants may be able to get into a relationship but once they are fully committed, struggle with feeling smothered. Others may avoid intimate or sexual relationships all together, becoming sexually anorexic. Some may even vacillate between all of these. The underlying component and common denominator in all of these scenarios is the "Urge to Merge." 
     
     
     
    Lesbian Love Addiction: Understanding the Urge to Merge and How to Heal When Things go Wrong is designed to help ameliorate at least part of this problem. It will give those who struggle with and suffer from love addiction ways to understand, cope, and heal from this debilitating addiction. It will give those who work with this population new tools to use to do this more effectively. Mostly, it will help lesbians understand their relationship failures and how to heal from problems associated with them, so they may grow and cultivate happier, more fulfilling connections in the future.

    Discover the unique mind and humane vision of an under-recognized American author. Encompassing themes of race, education, fame, law, and America’s past and future, these essays are James Alan McPherson at his most prescient and invaluable. 
    Born in segregated 1940s Georgia, McPherson graduated from Harvard Law School only to give up law and become a writer. In 1978, he became the first Black author to win the Pulitzer Prize for fiction. But all the while, McPherson was also writing and publishing nonfiction that stand beside contemporaries such as James Baldwin and Joan Didion, as this collection amply proves. 
    These essays range from McPherson’s profile of comedian Richard Pryor on the cusp of his stardom; a moving tribute to his mentor, Ralph Ellison; a near-fatal battle with viral meningitis; and the story of how McPherson became a reluctant landlord to an elderly Black woman and her family. 
    There are meditations on family as the author travels to Disneyland with his daughter, on the nuances of a neighborhood debate about naming a street after Malcolm X or Dr. Martin Luther King, and, throughout, those connections that make us most deeply human—including connections between writer and listener. 
    This collection is for anyone seeking a better understanding of our world and a connection to a wise and wickedly funny writer who speaks with forceful relevance and clarity across the decades.

    "I request you to take advantage of this book and enter into its understanding. Please make an appointment to meet your God now, through the self-liberating process of Yoga." George Harrison 
     
    This amazing audiobook relays stories of Sri Krsna's divine pastimes from the Srimad-Bhagavatam, the summit of the ancient Vedas of India. Since time immemorial, yogis have sought even a momentary vision of Krsna who descended to earth from his transcendental abode 5000 years ago. The great sage Veda Vyasa carefully recorded those pastimes in the Srimad-Bhagavatam. These tales transport the reader from the mundane on a miraculous journey to a transcendental realm beyond time and space where everything and everyone lives in the blissful light of the eternal transcendental youth, Sri Krsna, the ultimate object of all knowledge. 
     
    The Vedas are an intriguing, mystical body of work that carries within it the seed of transcendental knowledge. We live in a world where yoga reigns supreme as the preferred, go-to method of spiritual realization, and this unique,  audio presentation paves the way for a clearer, more meaningful understanding of the powerful, enlightening yoga system. A must-have audio experience for all practitioners of yoga, advanced teachers, spiritual seekers, devotees, as well as all school and library systems.

    Michel de Montaigne, sixteenth-century philosopher, and Margaret the Pug, twenty-first-century house pet, lead you through a 12-step program to manage your life like a product. Packed with exercises, tools, and humor, Fortune's Path gives you value right away that can last a lifetime. "This book is about how to use the principles of recovery to find your fortune. I hope there’s a place for love in your fortune. Most of us are afraid to love in business settings. There’s no reason to be afraid. If you’re just starting your career or even if you’re on your way but feeling stuck, give these principles a try. If you’re like me, you’ll find more success and be happier for trying." Tom Noser"I love the mix of philosophy and practical advice in this book. The Choose Your Own Adventure take on guiding you through typical work situations keeps each chapter engaging and interactive and the summary tables are great to come back to as a reference or refresher! Also Margaret the Pug is adorable and so are the illustrations."" love this book. The format and style is so refreshing and unique, unlike most books I've encountered and definitely much more engaging and entertaining than the typical product management or self help books out there. Tom describes real-life scenarios that are common in business and product management, however the lessons and insights are human focused and applicable to anyone regardless of career. The book is fun to read with a balanced mix of anecdotes, exercises, and quick reference summaries that give readers a variety of ways to interact with the material so it is easy to understand and apply in daily life."
