Our children can be our greatest teachers. Parenting expert Susan Stiffelman writes that the very behaviors that push our buttons - refusing to cooperate or ignoring our requests - can help us build awareness and shed old patterns, allowing us to raise our children with greater ease and enjoyment.

Your presence is your power. It doesn’t mean learning about body language, posture or how to wear a red lip. It’s about self-discovery, connecting with your body, flipping the switch on limiting beliefs and living life on your terms (without labels or the need for outside validation from others). In Presence, Lisa shares her own journey alongside practical tools that will help you to reconnect and be present to the power of your presence.

We all long to be free of our discomfort and experience inner peace. However, the attempt to get rid of our discomfort is misguided. We're not broken and don't need to be "healed". Our difficulty is that our deeply suppressed emotional imprints from childhood distract us from an awareness of the present moment. Until this emotional charge from our past is integrated, our attempts to quiet our thoughts and access the peace, joy, and love that are bedrock to our being are of only limited success.

In the fourth installment of this powerful audiobook series Working with Presence, Daniel Goleman and Peter Senge discuss how emotional intelligence is an integral part of the "learning organization," and what organizations need to do to continue to grow, learn and succeed. The ideas expressed...

Eckhart Tolle tells us that every encounter we have with another human being offers the opportunity for profound connection and transformation. For those who've made it their life's work to help others, this insight is especially powerful.

Mindfulness offers us a way to be fully in the present moment—and as we start to embrace this practice, we learn that our lives are made of present moments. That gift of presence is the palpable experience of awareness that appears when we remember to be mindful of those moments. In twenty short chapters, meditation teacher Tracy Cochran encourages us to see presence as a living force—and to recognize and explore how that shows up in our lives.

More people are discovering the freedom of being fully present in the moment, yet how do we stay present in the middle of a family crisis or a hectic workday? With The Power of Presence, Peter Senge presents a practical seminar in a skill he calls "presencing": a method for applying the serenity of living in the now to even our most demanding, high-pressure challenges.

We are influenced by those who came before us and influencing those who come after. Everything in the universe is interconnected so are we. We inherit cultures and experiences. This is known as collective unconscious or memory in nature. It organizes itself in systems such as flock of birds, religions, countries, football teams and so on, but the most important system for human beings is the family. Family systems are responsible for how we live and how we thrive through natural laws called 'The Orders of Love".

What do you love about your voice? Chloë Goodchild has posed this question to thousands of students worldwide, and found a fascinating truth: we all long to bare ourselves through our individual voices, yet we suppress this desire under the masks of personality. Your Naked Voice breaks these barriers of self-judgment, replaces fear with total authenticity, and gives you the courage to express your natural authority and presence.

In today's climate of high-velocity change, you can't get the results you want alone. You need to be able to inspire those around you to do what's necessary to make the impossible a reality.

Your personal and professional success is largely determined by what you say and how you say it. Let communication expert Bert Decker be your guide to the effective communication so essential to today's society (and your place in it!).

Your voice says a lot about you. Based on the tone and expression of your voice alone, your listeners may make up their minds about you before they even process the meaning of your words. And if what you say is at odds with how you say it, they can miss your message altogether. As important as our voices are, few of us know how to use them to their full potential. Full Voice offers a fun, tested method to harness the power of your voice to become a more effective and flexible communicator.

As our ability to pay attention in a world of distractions vanishes, it's no wonder that our ability to be heard and understood—to convey our messages—is also threatened. Whether working with our teams and customers or communicating with our families and friends, it is increasingly difficult to break through the digital devices that get in the way of communication. And the ubiquity of digital devices means that we are often "multicommunicating," participating in multiple conversations at once. As a result, our ability to be socially present with an audience requires an intentional approach.

At home, at work, or even out shopping, we’ve all experienced a moment when we’ve gone from feeling just fine to feeling out of control. Something inside us shifts. We instantly feel hurt, angry, shut down, or frozen. In these moments, we’ve been triggered, according to therapist and bestselling author Susan Campbell. In From Triggered to Tranquil, she offers a no-blame approach to conflicts and misunderstandings, empowering us to explore triggers and trauma responses and use these as portals to growth and self-compassion. This accessible, timely, and useful book includes:

As a mother, life often feels like it is passing by in a blur. You take countless pictures trying to freeze time and capture the memories, but in looking back find you barely even remember experiencing the moments. But what if there were a way to preserve your family's story while also becoming fully present within it? Combining the science of memory preservation with photography principles, professional photographer Joy Prouty shows you how to exit survival mode and enter the present moment through the photos you're already taking.

Montessori Dad is a journal-style podcast for fathers navigating the transition to a more intentional, presence-based way of life. Hosted by J.D. Murgolo, each episode is a reflection on Montessori parenting, emotional growth, and the quiet lessons our children teach us when we slow down.

Join us as we grow alongside our children, one letter at a time.
