Help Your Baby Sleep So That You Can Rest Too!

Summary

What is the one thing that most new mothers are worried about? What keeps new mothers awake in the middle of the night when they are clearly exhausted?  It’s because their babies refuse to establish a proper sleep pattern.  Lucky are the mothers whose baby sleeps properly from the very beginning. But for most others, months of sleepless nights and exhausted days follow the birth of a new baby. While the whole family rejoices the new addition to their home, it is usually the mother who has to go through the painful routines of staying awake with the baby all night.  While newborns sleep for most of the day (and night), a slightly older baby can refuse to close their eyes for a single second during the night and sleeps through the day. This can be quite exhausting for the mother who has to go to work in the morning or do thousands of chores all day.  Besides, how can you deal with your baby’s changing sleeping patterns as they grow up? What type of sleeping arrangement should you have in your home? When is the right time to move your child to their own room? How many naps do they take during the day as a toddler?  These are the kind of questions you might face in the coming years. Our book Help Your Baby Sleep So That You Can Rest Too! deals with everything related to your baby’s - and later, your toddler’s - sleep habits. It can help you with ideas of your own rest when your baby has trouble sleeping and later with any questions you may have about their sleep patterns and nap times.  In short, if you have any kind of questions about your child’s sleep, this is the audiobook for you.

More and more parents are dealing with children who are out of control or angry, and parents do not know how to handle them.

The answer is positive parenting. Positive parenting is parenting done right. It is a technique that is based on preparing your child for the future and looking for teachable moments in a child’s life.  This audiobook is going to teach you everything that you need to know about positive parenting so you can start using it today!

How to Get Your Kids to Listen to You

Summary

Being a parent is the hardest job in the world – there’s no denying that!  Not only do you have to keep a child healthy and happy, you are in charge of disciplining them, turning them into a good human being for the sake of society. And there’s where everything starts to go downhill.  No matter how fiercely you love your child and no matter how devoted they are to you, children doesn’t want to listen! They don’t want to listen to you when you want them to do something, and definitely not when you don’t want them to do something. The result – utter chaos!  I should know – I’ve been through that chaos. With a 6-year-old and a 2-year-old who didn’t listen to anything I told them, I was drowning in desperation and frustration. There wasn’t anything left for me to try to get my kids to listen to me – threatening them, punishing them, bribing them, cajoling them, trying to buy them with gifts, and what not. I was never a bad mother, but I was definitely a clueless one!  Then, I thought of being an effective mother – the kind of parent who knows the right way of making her kids listen. Months of research and talking to other parents, I came up with a plan, and everything I’ve learned is in this book.  This book has everything every parent needs to know about making their children listen to them - not just hear the words, but listen and act on them. I’ve divided the book into chapters, each one dealing with specific phrases of their lives. There’s also a chapter, at the beginning of the book, about why your children may not listen to you, which you can listen to see where you’re going wrong.  If you also have problems with getting your kids to listen to you, I really hope this book can help!

How to Control Your Emotions

Summary

Have you ever said something hurtful and nasty, then immediately regretted the words?  Have you ever reacted intensely to something and later wished you hadn’t?  How many times during the day do we show our feelings or bare our souls to people, only to be shamed later?  All this happens to almost every one of us, every day of our life, all because we don’t know how to control our emotions.  Yes, that’s where the problem lies: our emotions!  Our emotions are often so intense and so powerful that we can’t seem to control them. Be it the positive ones like love and happiness, or the hatefully negative ones like anger and contempt, our emotions are better hidden inside us. When we unleash them to the world without a second thought, we might become the reason behind someone’s unhappiness and suffering. It is extremely important to learn how to control our emotions - all the different kinds we experience - and feel every second, every minute, every hour, and every day of our lives. Emotions should be controlled and managed, hidden away until we know exactly how to reveal them, and only to the right people.  How to Control Your Emotions isn’t just a book based on researched, but my own journey. After my own life was changed drastically because I couldn’t control my own emotions on a very important day of my life, the idea for this book came to me. I researched it, added my own thoughts and experiences to it to make this book a guideline for all the people who, just like me, has trouble controlling their own emotions when the situation demands it.

Stop Yelling and Love Me More, Please Mom Workbook

Summary

As we all know, children have a hard time listening when we are yelling at them.  Most of the time, we are yelling not because we are trying to make them listen but because we are frustrated, angry, and let’s admit it – helpless! Shouting never helps the situation. We know that, the kids know that, everyone in the universe knows that. But we still shout.  My first book was not just about not yelling but about trying to understand your child through the different stages of their life. This book is actually a workbook that complements my first book; the chapters complement each other. Everything I’ve discussed in each of the chapters of my first book, I’ve explained more in this book, and added little exercises or tips that you can try or follow. The first book, as a stand-alone, is fine, as is this book, but together, they can help you (hopefully) to be the kind of parent that you want to be.

Summary

Negative thinking has never been more abundant than it is today's day and age. All of us are so wrapped up in our work and the coils of modern society that sometimes it can become a burden to take care of ourselves. We forget that we are human and that we have a lot of specific needs to attend to right within ourselves. Most of us are so busy taking care of our responsibilities and obligations that we don't have the motivation or even the education to take care of ourselves and practice positive thinking. Positive thinking has been known for centuries to help us in order to cope with the difficulties of life. Humor has been employed for thousands of years during difficult situations so that we are able to better relieve the stress from these problems. What many people don't realize is that our brains and our bodies are completely related, and our mental and emotional state of mind is sometimes purely chemical. We can change our state of mind by changing the way we think and the neural pathways in our brain that are usually connected to negative encircling thoughts. If we interrupt these thoughts, we're going to be able to live a healthier and happier life than we ever dreamed possible. If you want to learn more about how to change your life to positive thinking, this audiobook will teach you everything from how to overcome negativity, how we sabotage our efforts toward positivity by talking negatively to ourselves, how stress and anxiety can affect our lives, and how staying healthy can help us be more positive, to the physical and mental tricks that you can employ to begin utilizing positive thinking in your life today. Positive thinking can change us physically and emotionally, and it can provide us with a longer life and a plethora of physical health benefits. If this sounds like something that you would like to hear more about, Changing Your Life Through Positive Thinking has the answers you need about how you can empower yourself and leave negativity behind you forever.
