Book Description
Most of us at one time have said, or thought, something like: “So I procrastinate, it’s not like it’s hurting anyone!” “Enough about you, back to me.” “I deserve this, so I’m treating myself!” “If I can’t have it, she shouldn’t either.” “I’ll get around to it... or not.” “It’s not really gossip if it’s all true, right?” (And the granddaddy of them all) “But that doesn’t make me a bad person!” Are these really sins, you ask? After all, they’re not murder, theft, or violence. Don’t they just mean we’re human? Writer, speaker, and blogger Elizabeth Scalia takes a look at thirteen of these “little sins” that, if left unexamined and unconfessed, can have a serious impact on our spiritual lives and relationship with Christ. Through her honest (and sometimes funny) examination of these same sins in her own life, as well as Church teaching on each one, she helps us ask ourselves the tough questions, and the tools to kick these bad habits before they kick us.

Book Description
The book is a chronicle of my life and my life-long career in the construction industry throughout Western Canada. It begins, as my life did, in the 50’s and traverses through to this present day, reflcting on the many life experiences, challenges and achievements that I have appreciated over the last 68 years. Growing up in this post-war era and living through the vast societal and economic changes since that time has been a great period to live, grow and work. For those readers who are my vintage, I hope it brings back fond memories and familiar feelings and for those younger readers, I hope it illustrates a completely different world than where we live today; not better, not worse, just very different.

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
Learning to tell the difference between stress-caused symptoms that mimic physical symptoms is an important life adjustment skill, very useful. Gain insight with conviction on how the body functions relative to tenseness. With practice, the impact of symptoms suffered may be quickly and greatly reduced. Learn how temper works as a contributor to misery, misunderstanding, and institutionalization. The autonomic, that is, the involuntary nervous system, is unable to communicate to the brain that the physiological turmoil being felt is really caused by superfluous tense viscera, tenseness that is on the inside. The internal organs lack the ability to give an unbiased report. You must do it, for the sake of health, peace and freedom. Learn how. Discount repression and mysterious-caused symptoms. The use of mental health statements is a way your brain can tell the symptomatic protest of the inner environment everything is OK, even though it feels as though it isn’t. The subject, “Life Style”, deserves your attention. Life style is a superstructure that contributes to compromised living. It is a character neurosis everyone has.
