“That’s Not What I Meant! How Conversational Style Makes or Breaks Relationships” by Deborah Tannen
...helps you understand how to find a common language method in which to strengthen all relationships - at work and at home. A classic in the field of interpersonal relations and communication, this book will upgrade the way you interact in conversations.
“Part pop psychology, part sociology and part anthropology, this book by a linguistics professor at Georgetown University focuses on the uncomfortable moments when a conversation inexplicably breaks down, and suggests how such awkwardness can be avoided. Noting that there exist a plethora of books on public speaking, Tannen instead considers "private speaking,'' and particularly the “meta-messages'' we transmit, what we say, our attitude toward those we speak with, and the specific occasion involving such elements as loudness, pitch and intonation. Using scenarios that illustrate communication gaps, Tannen also attempts to show readers how to save their marriages and triumph in job interviews.” - Publishers Weekly

“The Presence Process A Journey into Present Moment Awareness” by Michael Brown
Why is it so difficult to respond consciously when we are upset? Why do we instead resort to automatic behaviors that are hurtful, unconscious, self-defeating behaviors?
We each have suppressed emotional imprints that were programmed into us through fear and trauma. This imprinting occurs automatically throughout childhood. This book helps dissipate your emotional charges, consciously identify and integrate them so that whenever upset, you’ll no longer automatically resort to those old reactive behaviors.
The Presence Process invites us to aspire to 'conscious emotional response' as a way of life. Reading and applying the simple breath-work procedure explained in this book will make it possible for anyone, anywhere, to transform the quality of their life experience from one of uncontrollable reactivity into a self-aware presence of admirable strength.
We all long to be free of our emotional outbursts and to instead experience an inner calm responsiveness in the face of difficulty. What The Presence Process reveals through direct experience is that any attempt on our behalf to 'get rid of' our emotional discomfort is misguided. Rather, it experientially reveals to us the miraculous transformation that unfolds when we instead embrace conscious emotional responsibility.
The Presence Process is an exciting self-facilitated learning experience of becoming fully empowered for choosing our emotional condition.
