The Lover Within: Accessing the Lover in the Male Psyche by Robert L. Moore & Douglas Gillette In this final volume in the four-book series that began with The King Within , Jungian analyst Moore and mythologist Gillette, a counselor, examine the Lover archetype within the male psyche (the others are the King, the Warrior, and the Magician -- each examined in a previous volume). The authors trace how the Lover -- the feeling side of men's nature -- gives rise to passion, creativity and the pursuit of pleasure. Through the Lover's energy, the conscious mind may encounter the personal and collective unconscious. However, the authors contend, because many men fear being consumed -- and thus emasculated -- by the Lover's energy, they suppress their feelings and creative instincts. At the opposite extreme, a man can become possessed by the Lover, which then manifests itself as an addictive personality (whether to alcohol, drugs, food or relationships). A potpourri of Jungian theory and mythology, with anecdotes from Moore's workshops and private practice, this book attempts to show men how to get in touch
Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting: The Astonishing Power of Feelings by Lynn Grabhorn Is there a way to always have a fat bank account, or a better job, or a delightfully smooth relationship, or a better body? And if so, is it really possible to realize these dreams now, rather than at some unknown future time? Lynn Grabhorn answers these questions with a resounding "Yes!" In Excuse Me, Your Life Is Waiting, she says that what actually molds every moment of every day of one's life are feelings. Using a candid, witty approach to a genre riddled with self-important puffery, she shows how feelings -- not positive thinking, or sweat and strain, or good or bad luck, or even smarts -- set the tone for people's lives. She frames her theory as a four-part plan that covers all the big topics -- money, relationships, health, and spirituality -- without being pompous or preachy. Grabhorn's "Law of Attraction" lets the seeker find peace and pleasure in life by feeling rather than by thinking.

Fire in the Belly:: On Being a Man by Sam Keen What does it really mean to be a man? Fire in the Belly answers that question by daringly confronting outdated models of manhood that impoverish, injure, and alienate men. It shows instead how men can find their own path to understanding the unique mysteries of being male and in the process rediscover a new vitality and virility that will energize every aspect of their lives. Here is a look at men at work, at play, at war, and in love, moving from brokenness to wholeness and building nurturing, satisfyiung relationships with one another, their mates and their families.
At no time in history have there been so many men looking for new roles, new attitudes, and new ways of being. In this powerful and empowering book, author Sam Keen retells for modern times the ancient story of the search for what it means to be a man - a man with fire in his belly and passion in his heart.

To Love and Be Loved by Sam Keen To Love and Be Loved is a spirited challenge to a culture obsessed with romance and intimacy but dangerously ignorant of the full range and richness of human love. Love is not something we "fall" into, claims Keen, but a complex art combining many skills and talents that take a lifetime to learn. Here he focuses on the sixteen key "elements of love" that combine to form the full spectrum of human affection. He concludes with a soaring meditation on the claim that "those who love know God," an exploration of eros and creativity at the center of the universe.
