Book Description
AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK Tired, stressed, and in need of more help from your partner? Imagine running your household (and life!) in a new way... It started with the Sh*t I Do List. Tired of being the “shefault” parent responsible for all aspects of her busy household, Eve Rodsky counted up all the unpaid, invisible work she was doing for her family—and then sent that list to her husband, asking for things to change. His response was...underwhelming. Rodsky realized that simply identifying the issue of unequal labor on the home front wasn't enough: She needed a solution to this universal problem. Her sanity, identity, career, and marriage depended on it. The result is Fair Play: a time- and anxiety-saving system that offers couples a completely new way to divvy up domestic responsibilities. Rodsky interviewed more than five hundred men and women from all walks of life to figure out what the invisible work in a family actually entails and how to get it all done efficiently. With 4 easy-to-follow rules, 100 household tasks, and a series of conversation starters for you and your partner, Fair Play helps you prioritize what's important to your family and who should take the lead on every chore, from laundry to homework to dinner. “Winning” this game means rebalancing your home life, reigniting your relationship with your significant other, and reclaiming your Unicorn Space—the time to develop the skills and passions that keep you interested and interesting. Stop drowning in to-dos and lose some of that invisible workload that's pulling you down. Are you ready to try Fair Play? Let's deal you in.

There Is No Good Card for This
Author: Kelsey Crowe
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062470000
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
The creator of the viral hit "Empathy Cards" teams up with a compassion expert to produce a visually stunning and groundbreaking illustrated guide to help you increase your emotional intelligence and learn how to offer comfort and support when someone you know is in pain. When someone you know is hurting, you want to let her know that you care. But many people don’t know what words to use—or are afraid of saying or doing the wrong thing. This thoughtful, instructive guide, from empathy expert Dr. Kelsey Crowe and greeting card maverick Emily McDowell, blends well-researched, actionable advice with the no-nonsense humor and the signature illustration style of McDowell's immensely popular Empathy Cards, to help you feel confident in connecting with anyone experiencing grief, loss, illness, or any other difficult situation. Written in a how-to, relatable, we’ve-all-been-that-deer-in-the-headlights kind of way, There Is No Good Card for This isn’t a spiritual treatise on how to make you a better person or a scientific argument about why compassion matters. It is a helpful illustrated guide to effective compassion that takes you, step by step by step, past the paralysis of thinking about someone in a difficult time to actually doing something (or nothing) with good judgment instead of fear. There Is No Good Card for This features workbook exercises, sample dialogs, and real-life examples from Dr. Crowe’s research, including her popular "Empathy Bootcamps" that give people tools for building relationships when it really counts. Whether it’s a coworker whose mother has died, a neighbor whose husband has been in a car accident, or a friend who is seriously ill, There Is No Good Card for This teaches you how to be the best friend you can be to someone in need.

Book Description
This is the definitive guide to learning and mastering Tarot quickly and easily. Unique, fun, easy-to-learn exercises teach you how to hear what the cards are trying to tell you. This book is perfect for the beginner: all you need to read the tarot is this book and a deck of cards (preferably the standard Rider decks you can find anywhere). We start you immediately practicing our unique, easy and fun exercises with your cards. You will spend your time playing with your cards, not memorizing rules and dogma from some book of archaic superstition and vague cards meanings. You see, this is not yet another book of Tarot card meanings. How boring is that? We will start your hands-on learning immediately; you will be playing with your Tarot cards as they reveal the future to you. You learn by doing, not by memorizing outdated lies and superstitions. This is our official Tarot academy textbook, the same one we use to turn beginners into professionals.

Here is what you will by reading this book: What your cards are telling you every time you ask a question. What various meanings your cards can have (how else can 78 cards describe the thousands of things that could happen to you on any given day?) How to cast a spread and actually get reliable answers The best spreads to use, how to use them, and when to use them (for any occasion) What the cards "traditionally mean" and why that is important, but not more important than what your intuition is telling you "right now" The difference between average Tarot readers and masters is their ability to hear their inner voice, and see how card meanings adapt to the question being asked. We help you instinctively see exactly how cards blend, influence, and aspect other cards, and how to answer ANY question, even if you have never picked up a deck. We do this through unique exercises and games, taught nowhere else in the world. Click on the "Look Inside" link above to see exactly how you will quickly and easily master the Tarot.This is a highly interactive workbook: You don't just read this book and put it on the shelf-you practice what you learn in real time, and you see results instantly from your education.
