With the phenomenal growth of Alcoholics Anonymous & the vast number of other 12-Step programs that have evolved from it, the "recovery movement" has attained epic status. People are "recovering" from everything from overeating to sexual addictions - most of them engaging in the 12-steps in order to heal. Those experts that have attained a degree of fame, the "Recovery Stars," get thousands of dollars for speaking about their own "recovery" experiences. The recovery movement has become a billion dollar industry & a major facet of our current culture. Recovery is a subculture of shared values, the highest & noblest of which is "serenity." Recovery is not only proposed as a means of conquering an addition, but also a way of saving your life & achieving a higher level of being. In this detailed, well-researched book, however, author Andrew Meacham questions the processes that the 12-Step programs & in fact, the entire recovery movement employ. Why does the medical profession qualify all these addictions as "diseases," & why is the insurance industry so quick to pay for treatment? Meacham attempts to answer these questions & many more that the recovery movement raises. He attempts to define addiction & disease, & cites various studies used to support recovery idealogy, pointing out the misapplication of their results that often leads to over generalization & false claims. He discusses the paradox between the "written word" of individuality within the recovery movement & the unwritten universal stories that recovery gurus use to take away the individual's power.

Logan Brisco is the smoothest, slickest, handsomest man Serenity, Texas has ever seen. But Carny Sullivan knows a con artist when she sees one—and she’s seen plenty, starting with her father. As far as Carny Sullivan can tell, she’s the only one in town who has his number. Because from his Italian shoes to his movie-actor smile, Logan has the rest of the town snowed. Carny is determined to reveal Brisco’s selfish intentions before his promise to the townspeople for a cut in a giant amusement park sucks Serenity dry. Yet, as much as she hates his winning ways, there is a man behind that suave smile, a man who may win her heart against her will.Shadow in Serenity is a modern-day Music Man, penned by a Christy Award-winning, New York Times bestselling author.

Most readers know that "happiness is within," but they don't always know how to access that happiness whenever they like, and in all circumstances. In Serenity, Jane Nelsen teaches readers four principles that will help them to stop being a slave to their thought system in order to access wisdom from the heart and from the soul. The four basic and easily applied principles from Serenity: 1. Free yourself from the filters of your thought system. 2. Understand how feelings can act as a personal compass. 3. Improve relationships by understanding and respecting differences. 4. Learn how to overcome depression, anger, or any negative feeling. The chronic stress of modern life often interferes with enjoying the happiness that comes with peace of mind. Joy is needlessly missing from too many lives and from too many relationships. Serenity provides many tools to help readers discover innate feelings of joy, compassion, gratitude, wisdom, and love so they can live more fully every day.

NEW 2ND EDITION UPDATE FOR 2023! A hilarious guide to saving thousands of dollars marketing and selling your home with standard 'For Sale by Owner' (FSBO) or flat-fee MLS. Great for home flippers, sellers, OR buyers (now includes a full chapter on buying homes, as well as tips throughout for buyers). Two real-life case studies are presented in detail, with lessons learned, tips, and hacks. One case study in a buyer's market, and one in a seller's market. The traditional way of selling real estate has been disrupted. FSBO has changed from the days when you put the ugly red and white sign out front. There are new approaches that benefit sellers and buyers. The choice between FSBO and using listing/selling agents the old-school way is no longer binary. New options make it easier for homeowners to find the right process for themselves. Visionary realty companies now offer flat-fee MLS, which eliminates expensive commissions and helps to expedite the process, put the power back in the hands of buyers and sellers, and save both parties money. This book examines those choices, and walks you through the selling process from start to finish using real-life experiences, from historic decisions to closing. It is indeed a 'Cautionary Tale' due to the many pitfalls and bizarre events that occurred along the way. In conclusion, the author poses the question—is it wise to buy a home at all anymore? Should we just rent? ***** Five Stars The great thing about this book is it puts all the info right in one place for a very reasonable price, giving you an up-to-date summary of how to do FSBO in the modern marketplace. I highly recommend it! W Chef (1st Edition Review) ***** Five Stars This is a great read. Having just gone through selling our house and buying a new one I can relate at many levels. And the author uses an engaging writing style. Alex P, Vine Voice (1st Edition Review)
