Cheating is a topic she knows all too well, as both a professional who helps clients grappling with the realization of a partner's affair AND as a wife whose own marriage ended due to infidelity. Desperate for answers, LaRusso set to work learning every last thing she could about rebuilding her life and helping others do the same. Shocked by cheating's prevalence, she wondered: if millions of people are having affairs, why aren't we openly speaking about it? Why is the topic still so taboo? And most importantly: why isn't anyone talking honestly about how the partners left behind can rebuild their lives and reclaim themselves in the wake of it? Most books on infidelity either focus on reconciliation OR they normalize cheating as a mere "warning sign" in a relationship. LaRusso is here to assure you that you can still find hope and even happiness on the other side of infidelity. In fact, great beauty and personal transformation awaits, if you know how to find it. In Beyond Infidelity, LaRusso writes the book she wishes had existed when she was suffering in silence. With an interactive seven-step guide-taking readers from understanding what you're going through, to stabilizing yourself and curating your world, to breaking free and becoming whole-Beyond Infidelity meets readers where they are in their moment of crisis. With writing that is strikingly intimate, compassionate, and free of judgment, LaRusso's work flips the script on infidelity. Being cheated on, she explains, is not your fault. Even if your marriage ends, this moment can actually be an opportunity for lasting self-growth and healing. (Really!) This, LaRusso argues, is the true gift of infidelity-moving beyond betrayal and rising from the ashes of your relationship stronger than ever.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2942300</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2942300</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[LaRusso, Lauren]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2942300138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How to Turn the End of your Relationship Into the Beginning of your Life</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798217044030/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1565387265</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Inner Beloved]]></title><description><![CDATA["An exploration of the spiritual journey as a path of love, guiding readers through the profound mysteries of the heart's longing for its true Beloved"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2955629</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2955629</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Almaas, A.

She never thought in her lifetime, medicines would provide hope, health, and healing for people like her. But as her conversations with Dr. Ania Jastreboff from the Yale School of Medicine reveal, we've learned that having obesity is not a choice. It's not a question of willpower. Obesity is a disease. It's a question of biology, created by our bodies' need to survive and the environment we created and now live in. And it's treatable. The new medications can lower our body fat set point (our brain's "Enough Point"), so that we lose weight without battling biology with willpower. Dr. Jastreboff describes strategies to optimize health and manage side effects all with the reassuring perspective of decades of experience treating patients with obesity and leading studies with these medications. Many of her patients say the "food noise" that plagued them for years has evaporated. They describe a new freedom from intrusive, persistent, and disruptive thoughts about food. With treatment they begin a journey of healing with self-compassion, devoid of the shame and blame they've endured from society for decades. Oprah says she's learned so much from Dr. Jastreboff about how, when it comes to weight, our bodies work with us--and also against us. How each of our struggles are different and each of our choices in living with obesity may also be different. Dr. Jastreboff's groundbreaking research offers a new way forward, not only for obesity treatment, but also for overall health, with significant implications for the prevention and reversal of hundreds of related diseases. As she demonstrates in this book, when science meets empathy, real healing becomes possible. Yes, there is a path to healing and leading the life you have always wanted, when your brain is reassured that you have "enough." -- Provided by the publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2942311</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2942311</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jastreboff, Ania M.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2942311138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Your Health, your Weight, and What It&apos;s Like to Be Free</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781668217283/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1565023908</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Self-esteem Class]]></title><description><![CDATA["A step-by-step guide to recovering from low self-esteem and revolutionizing your relationships, career, goals, and life satisfaction-from an internationally renowned expert in self-esteem If you're trying to become your very best and most desirable self but struggling with low self-worth, vicious cycles, and negative scripts, this book is the place to start.

No more phone calls, no more visits, no more contact. Parting with his abuser gave him immediate relief and set him on a path toward freedom, confidence, and joy like none he had ever felt before. In The Power of Parting, Dolan has written the book he wishes he'd had when he was struggling to free himself from his mother's abuse. In the process, he discovered how widespread estrangement really is. At least 27 percent of Americans are estranged from a parent, sibling, or other family member. He also learned why so much stigma surrounds this common-and often lifesaving-phenomenon. Even among therapists-the professionals who would seem most attuned to the pain relatives can inflict-there's a bias toward reconciliation, when millions of their patients need instead to escape their abusers' grip. Estrangement, Dolan realized, should be understood and embraced, not shrouded in shame. Drawing on his own suffering and healing, as well as experts' advice and the testimony of other courageous survivors, Dolan first explains why abuse is much different and more prevalent than we may think, how it harms us in childhood and beyond, and why limiting or eliminating contact might be our best possible choice. Then, he walks readers through the steps of a successful, positive estrangement: how to take crucial time for yourself; how to make sure no one can gaslight you into minimizing or forgetting; how to set rules for your abuser and-if they can't or won't respect your limits-how to end a toxic relationship. He also offers valuable counsel on how to ease the guilt and grief that often accompany parting, and how to break the cycle of abuse that was likely passed down to you through many generations. With a convincing blend of clarity and empathy, Dolan encourages others to do what he ultimately did for himself: determine whether the people in your life treat you with the care and concern you deserve-and part ways with them if they don't."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2914638</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2914638</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dolan, Eamon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2914638138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Finding Peace and Freedom Through Family Estrangement</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593714126/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1445770054</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll Look So Hot in A Coffin]]></title><description><![CDATA["Carla Sosenko was born with Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome, a rare vascular disorder that resulted in legs of different sizes, a mass of flesh on her back, a hunched posture, and other idiosyncrasies big and small. She spent years trying to hide under layers of clothing, and then experimented with the opposite: wearing tiny dresses and short shorts, daring people to stare so she could make them regret it. No matter what she did, she was worried that she didn't measure up. In this candid and funny memoir, Carla shares what existing in an unconventional body has meant for her self-image, mental health, relationships, and ambitions. She writes of having liposuction when she was eight years old, and an adulthood spent obsessively gaming Weight Watchers points. She wrestles with the rise of Ozempic after working hard to reject diet culture. She tries to parse whether it is in spite of or because of her physical differences that she is an outgoing social butterfly who chose a high-profile career in media. Most of all, Carla explores the ways in which she's felt alone and without community: not disabled but different; the recipient of pretty privilege, but also fatphobia; too much, but still never enough. We follow along as she learns to claim her body-and mind and spirit and life-for exactly what they are: her own. A clarion call for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider or believed they should take up less space, I'll Look So Hot In a Coffin offers hope, recognition, and a new way to see ourselves-by celebrating what sets us apart"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2920690</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2920690</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sosenko, Carla]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2920690138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>And Other Thoughts I Used to Have About My Body</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593595893/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1484822745</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Perfect Is Boring (and It Tastes Like Kale)]]></title><description><![CDATA["Jess Johnston used to feel alone in her mess. In a random burst of courage, she started sharing about those insecurities and struggles out loud, and what she found shocked her. Again and again, people replied, "Me too! I thought I was the only one!" In Perfect is Boring (and It Tastes Like Kale), Jess reminds readers that no one's living a perfect life, and there's a powerful interpersonal connection that happens when we're real about it. Maybe some people are cut out for perfectionism. (Martha Stewart? Daniel Tiger's Mom?) For the rest of us, the secret to living a full and connected life is finding the courage to show up as our real selves and stop participating in our own loneliness. With honesty, heart, and humor, Johnston shares the lessons she's learning (and relearning) about cultivating an authentic life, including: "I count, I'm important, and I matter-even if people introduce themselves to me 500 times."; "I want to be the best mother that has ever mothered, but it turns out I'm a mother who has a literal meltdown because her vacuum got run over by the car."; "Showing up is more important than winning.

As the youngest of three daughters, and the only one born in Canada soon after her parents' emigration from Iran, Roza Nozari began her life hungry for a sense of belonging. From her early years, she shared a passion for Iranian cuisine with her mother and craved stories of their ancestral home. Eventually they visited and she fell in love with its sights and smells, and with the warm embrace of their extended family. Yet Roza sensed something was amiss with her mother's happy, well-rehearsed story of their original departure.    As Roza grew older, this longing for home transformed into a desire for inner understanding and liberation. She was lit up by the feminist texts in her women's studies courses, and shared radical ideas with her mother--who in turn shared more of her past, from protesting for the Islamic revolution to her ambivalence about getting married. In this memoir, Roza braids the narrative of her mother's life together with her own on-going story of self, as she arrives at, then rejects, her queer identity, eventually finds belonging in queer spaces and within queer Iranian histories, and learns the truth about her family's move to Canada. All the Parts We Exile is a memoir of dualities: mother and daughter, home and away, shame and self-acceptance, conflict and peace, love and pain--and the stories that exist within and between them. In sharp, emotionally honest and funny prose, Roza tenderly explores the grief around the parts we exile and the joy of those we hold close in order to be true to our deepest selves."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2909465</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2909465</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nozari, Roza]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2909465138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781039007062/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1435881210</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cudi]]></title><description><![CDATA["Cudi: The Memoir is Scott Mescudi's most personal work yet.

Learn to be good to yourself with this clear and compassionate guide. Do you set demanding standards for yourself? If so, a lot likely goes well in your life: You might earn compliments, admiration, or accomplishments. Your high standards and hard work pay off. But privately, you may feel like you're falling behind, faking it, or different from everybody else. Your eagle-eyed inner quality control inspector highlights every mistake. You try hard to avoid criticism, but criticize yourself. Trying to get it right is your guiding light, but it has lit the way to a place of dissatisfaction, loneliness, or disconnection. In short, you may look like you're hitting it out of the park, but you feel like you're striking out. This is perfectionism. And for everyone who struggles with it, it's a misnomer: perfectionism isn't about striving to be perfect. It's about never feeling good enough. Dr. Ellen Hendriksen-clinical psychologist, anxiety specialist, and author of How to Be Yourself-is on the same journey as you. In How to Be Enough, Hendriksen charts a flexible, forgiving, and freeing path, all without giving up the excellence your high standards and hard work have gotten you.

[She] shows how our upbringing and anxiety are often connected to our struggle to takeup space. We can feel like we are too much by just existing in the same place as someone else, or that we are less deserving of their time and care. This struggle with asserting ourselves, or taking whatwe require, can harm our development. We sometimes think the only way to feel okay and get what we need is to please everyone else first. [This book may help] us understand why control can be so attractive, but if left unmonitored can become detrimental to our lives"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2936763</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2936763</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Morton, Kati]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2936763138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Unlearn the Habits Keeping You Stuck and Unhappy</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780306836541/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1542835343</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Finding your Self at the Heartbreak Hotel]]></title><description><![CDATA[Alice Haddon, psychologist with over twenty-five years of clinical experience, and Ruth Field, bestselling self-help author, show us how we can dissect heartbreaks, mine them for strength and live our most empowered life.

Enter Bunny Michael, an interdisciplinary artist whose work picks up where Alex Elle, Brené Brown, and Julia Cameron leave off.  Bunny knows what it is firsthand to be an outsider: from trying to find their footing in an art world dictated by social media followers, to coming to terms with their queer identity, to dealing with the societal traumas they've inherited as a person of color in a society that privileges whiteness. It was at a real low point that Bunny first got in touch with their higher self--and ever since has been helping their followers do the same through their art and inspiring Instagram presence.  Building from Bunny's viral memes, Hello Higher Self Is a self-care manifesto, calling on readers to radically shift their perspectives from the Learned Hierarchal Beliefs (LHBs) we've all internalized to the self-acceptance we were born into, aka our Higher Selves. This book shines a light into eighteen areas of life where LHBs often lurk--from creativity, to work, to relationships, to race, to sexual pleasure. Bunny's mix of meditative advice, written exercises, and personal examples make for a jaw-dropping read."-- provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2882976</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2882976</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michael, Bunny]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2882976138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>An Outsider&apos;s Guide to Loving Yourself in A Tough World</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780316471565/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1399405089</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Quiérete mucho]]></title><description><![CDATA[Quiérete mucho nos da claves para evaluar nuestro nivel de autoestima.

A breakup can feel like the end of the world-but what if it could serve as the start of a better you? In our search for love, affection, and acceptance, we often find ourselves repeating old patterns with new partners. Our brains seek familiar touch points as a way of navigating the unpredictability of our lives, but this means we can find ourselves reentering relationships with the same toxic dynamics. Toxic relationships are especially hard to recover from, especially when they uncovered some of our earliest and deepest traumas. When we leave them, we often find ourselves nursing a broken heart, again and again. Even Ginger Dean, a celebrated psychotherapist, found herself stuck in this cycle, but something eventually clicked: Heartbreak didn't have to be a foregone conclusion. Heartbreak can bring us back home to ourselves, not only in our romantic relationships, but in every area of our lives. Once we start healing our hearts, other aspects of our lives open up to bloom. Through personal anecdotes, practical guidance, and a little bit of tough love, Ginger brings her wisdom and empathy to any reader who is ready to join the revolution of women healing their hearts so they can start the best love affair they've ever known-with themselves. Loving ourselves, healing our emotional wounds, setting boundaries, breaking trauma bonds, and doing the necessary healing work after a toxic relationship is a radical decision in today's society. We become savage self-lovers.

It frowns at your mistakes, warns you that your list needs tending, and questions your attractiveness. It's a bully. And you don't actually need it. The path to personal nirvana is routed through your inner critic. Better Days will help you confront and immobilize the superego ̃ that nagging little voice in your head that sneers at your mistakes, questions your worth, and whose snarky commentary keeps you stuck in a childish cycle of reward and punishment. The method is simple, fun, and riveting: First you meet your inner critic. Then you talk to it. Then you speak up whenever it pokes in. Eventually it gets the picture that you don't need it, and it shuts up. Along the way you'll learn a dozen specific techniques anyone can use to move it to the side and reduce anxiety, increase satisfaction, and find your own freedom."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2877110</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2877110</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Allen, Neal]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2877110138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Tame your Inner Critic</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781897238844/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1371240437</image_url></item></channel></rss>
