Recommended Reading for Teen and Post Teen Boys:
The facetious title of this book might shock you a little. When I helped edit one of the drafts, it definitely got my attention. Still, I want to recommend David Hafter's unique little book Growing Balls: Personal Power for Young Men. "This is a concise self-help book focusing on the serious subject of helping young men to avoid the pitfalls of premature marriage and fatherhood. Hafter uses provocative language to grab the reader's attention and keeps it to the end. With chapter titles such as "Your Balls and How to Find Them" and "Confusing Heart with Balls," you can instantly get a flavor for the style. This is a blunt and often amusing book and I think young men and the people who love them will profit from the message. For more in-depth reviews and to buy a copy, go to David's website www.growingballs.com. By the way, David is currently writing a book on spirituality, as yet untitled.
Pain Management Resource:
I had the priviledge to spend a couple of years helping to train a group of professionals to support people all over the United States to experience pain relief using words. I know it sounds incredible and it's true.
I am pleased to have trained and worked beside John Leonard, Ph.D., the originator of this technique, and I am delighted to share this resource with you.
Watch the PBS video clip on NeuroBehavioral Programs, view the actual work in action, and get a free pain relief guide. Check out the entire website for more information or feel free to ask me.
