Stop Letting Your Past Control You
There are a number of books that focus on dealing with past issues. The common themes seem to be forgiveness and acceptance. While these messages are a necessary part of the process, they aren't very practical. Forgiving someone is cathartic and often makes the forgiver feel better about themselves, but they can't effectively use it to overcome the underlying issues. There is also a sense of an afflicter and a victim. Readers should not have to feel like victims because they've been hurt in the past. They should be able to see hurt as normal, but something that is given far too much power. Healing is possible and moving on is possible. This book will empower the reader right from the beginning. You will see what you have been avoiding for most of your life and that by picking up this book, you have chosen to be the one in power and control. By applying the exercises in the book, you will finally take control of your life's direction. Conspicuously missing from other books are tangible skills one can walk away with. This book will have clinical exercises you can use to start improving your life immediately. There will be short-term and long-term goals that provide present as well as future benefits.
The Pretty Victory
From "rising superstar" (BET), comedic actress, and online personality Pretty Vee comes a 100-day devotional and guided journal to help you define your goals, find the strength to reach them, and unapologetically go out and get what you've been dreaming of. Pretty Vee, a multi-talented comedian, actress, and philanthropist, has crafted a captivating and unique devotional blending humor, sincerity, and relatability to help make the path to spiritual enlightenment accessible and engaging for everyone. She lives by the mantra "a delay is not a denial," meaning we all have hopes and dreams, but we may need a little help to get past the hurdles. She herself has faced the anxiety of not knowing how to move forward in her life, before her mother, who is a pastor, helped her recenter and find her purpose. Far too often, life pushes us to move from one task to the next, creating a perpetual cycle of doing, doing, doing without ever taking a moment to simply sit and relish our blessings. We get so caught up in the hustle that we forget to look around and be grateful for what we already have, and what we've already accomplished. This 100-day devotional is meant to be a guided journal to help you reach your goals and find a deeper connection with God while prioritizing your mental and emotional health. Pretty Vee includes prompts to help you reflect on your journey towards gratitude, stillness, and speaking your truth. Her many friends and mentors, including Shaquille O'Neal, Issa Rae, Lil Duval, Tiffany Haddish, Kierra Sheard, and Charlamagne Tha God also add their visions for a Pretty Victory. While Pretty Vee has one foot firmly in entertaining, she also sees part of her path as helping to give back. With The Pretty Victory, she shows that brokenness doesn't last forever. And that miracles, hope, and ultimately victories are all there for you too.

The Fix
Did you know that anyone--addicts or non-addicts--can benefit from working the Twelve Steps and find the freedom, joy, and intimacy with God that their hearts long for?We all suffer from a sense of spiritual homelessness--a feeling that we're not fully at home in the world. To cope with our painful feelings and life traumas, we search for quick "fixes" that eventually become habitual, self-destructive behaviors that ultimately create more problems than they solve.As a person in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, Ian Cron is no stranger to these destructive habits. It wasn't until he embraced the Twelve Steps that he found true freedom. He knows from personal experience that Twelve Step recovery is more than just a life-saving strategy for guiding substance users into sobriety. Everybody is addicted to something to numb the discomfort of living in a messed-up world, he says, but the good news is that if you committedly "work the steps," you will eventually have a vital spiritual awakening that will give you an entirely new and radically beautiful orientation toward the life God has for you.If you long for sustainable healing and joy amid life's messiness, The Fix invites you to: Journey step-by-step through a spiritual curriculum that has helped millions overcome trauma, pain, and brokenness for over eight decadesUnderstand how the Twelve Steps can be a transformative tool not only for people with chemical or behavioral addictions but for anyone who wants to move beyond self-help to a spiritual awakeningCatch yourself in the act of self-sabotaging behaviors and understand how each day is a new opportunity to trade in self-willed reformation for grace-powered transformation "My original subtitle for this book--Twelve Steps to Unscrewing Your Screwed-Up Life--was a little over the top," Ian comments. "But anyone who has ever fallen for a quick fix (like drugs, alcohol, porn, overeating, work, religion, people-pleasing, and more) knows firsthand how our self-prescribed treatment plans derail us. They might not be as visible as empty bottles stashed inside a desk drawer, but they are just as life-complicating and soul-crushing."With his characteristic wit and transparent self-disclosure, Ian guides us in learning how to work each of the Twelve Steps so we will finally be given a "new pair of glasses" through which we will be able to see ourselves, others, and the world in a startlingly new way--and ultimately take hold of the freedom God has been waiting to give us all along.

Speaking from the Heart
Now in full color! Speaking from the Heart: 18 Languages for Modern Love is an updated and expansive approach that recognizes that love languages apply to ALL relationships - not just heterosexual marriage. And there's WAY more than five of them.Love languages are an anecdotal idea related to the ways people express, identify, and receive love. Think about them like literal languages: there are upwards of 7,000 different languages in the world, which means there are at LEAST 7,000 different ways humans communicate with each other. Many languages also have various dialects (German has 250!) which are like languages within a language. While we all may be saying the same or similar things, we use a wide variety of words, movements, and sounds to express them, and there is no single "official" or "correct" way to do it. Same goes for love.Understanding how we do (and don't) express and receive love can be a foundational part of our most nourishing relationships. Rejecting relationship hierarchy and centering platonic love, Speaking from the Heart: 18 Languages for Modern Love gives readers a tangible tool for identifying their needs while navigating others', and does so with a friendly and direct attitude.
