Description
If you are a workaholic you need to put some balance back in your life, no two ways about it. Without balance you will likely find yourself lonely, sickly, and bored out of your skull come your golden years (assuming that you survive until then, which is questionable). While a strong work ethic is an admirable thing for most people, workaholics have a tendency to ruin their lives by being unable to stop working when work time is over.
In this 13-chapter book Arthur Laud will help you come to grips with your addiction to work and get it under control while there is still time. You will come face to face with the root causes of your affliction and then be walked step by step through a procedure that will get you back on track to living a happy, healthy, balanced life. Topics covered include:
• Why You are a Workaholic • What You are Missing - Is it Worth It? • Why Balance in Your Life is Critical • Let's Sit Down and Figure Out Your Real Priorities • Realistic Goal Setting • Reconnecting with Lost Passions • Physical Fitness: No Point in Financial Success without It • Personal Organization: The Key to Making it All Work • Strategic Reminders: The Key to Self-Discipline • Relationship Advice for Workaholics • Working Vacations vs. Real Vacations • Life is Good for People with Balanced Lives
The real irony is, once you start walking the balance beam every aspect of your life will improve, including your work performance! You don’t even realize that the best way to be more efficient in your work is to get away from it for a while. This book will open your eyes and offer a very “workable” plan for achieving the balance and satisfaction that you are missing.

Calm Downby Paul HauckSheldonHyper-chondriac: One Man's Quest to Hurry Up and Calm Down by Brian FrazerAtriaDoes your blood pressure surge if the car in front of you turns without signaling? Do your neck veins pulsate when a cashier takes too long to ring you up? Does relaxing seem like it'll have to wait until you're dead? Then your name could very well be Brian Frazer. On paper, Frazer is the world's healthiest guy. He eats right, exercises regularly, gets plenty of sleep, has never smoked and has missed only one day of flossing in the last five years. But inside he's a swirling vortex of angst, capable of contracting a new malady every month. Once Frazer realized that all his ills were tied to stress, he went on a quixotic quest for calm, venturing into everything from Tai Chi, serotonin blockers and Kabbalah to an unfortunate incident involving pineapple-chicken curry at a Craniosacral therapy session. Never has the road to wellville taken so many unforeseen turns. Achingly funny, uncomfortably true and always entertaining, Hyperchondriac is just the medicine for anyone who wants to take it down a notch.

A SURPRISE BENEFIT
One of the benefits of being serene may surprise you. When you are still and serene, your creative mind opens up and presents you with the solutions to your problems and helps you to create the life you want. It is wonderful.
You are also more playful. And …
Playfulness is the heart of creativity.
Playfulness is the power for peak performance.
WHAT DO YOU IMAGINE WHEN I SAY SERENE?
Can you imagine you are completely relaxed and yet completely aware? You are breathing slowly and deeply with full attention. The whole world appears different. You feel wonderful. You are mellow, peaceful, content, and conscious.
Some like to think of this as being deeply relaxed while simultaneously being fully awake and alert.
Back in the sixties and early seventies, many young people and some not so young people experimented with mind-altering drugs. The quest to expand the mind was right on target, but the means (illegal drugs) abandoned people to disillusionment and, at worst, ruined lives.
When people use drugs, whether pharmaceutical or illegal, to achieve relaxation or alertness, there are side effects. The Simply Serene Methods don’t have a “druggy” feeling, but generate real serenity from within.
All humans throughout history have explored consciousness. It is our destiny. We call it many things: Heaven on Earth, Enlightenment, Nirvana, Paradise. It is all the same.
The four methods in Simply Serene help you to realize Heaven on Earth.
AN EXERCISE
Take a few uninterrupted quiet minutes and remember a time of being truly serene and having peace of mind. If no memory comes to mind, imagine a time.
As you go through your day and your week in your imagination, what does your life look like when you are serene?
How does your body feel, what sensations do you have when you are serene?
As you imagine yourself being serene, what setting are you in? Now, what do you imagine when I say:
• Awake • Aware • Rested • Happy • Content • Creative
Take another minute, build up the scene in your imagination, and now imagine yourself feeling and living your life being awake, aware, rested, happy, content, creative, and serene.
