• A Family Garden - Thorns and Roses www.amazon.com/Family-Garden-Thorns-Roses-Poetry/dp/1438238819/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1256243011&sr=1-1 Two of the writers have had a diagnosis of bipolar disorder. One of those two writers has been taken off all medication and declared by the doctors to be in remission. Why do we tell you this? So you can ponder the differences and the similarities we all may share, and that angst and growing and life's perspectives may not be so different between us all, regardless of what else we are dealing with. My family hopes you enjoy our little experiment. At the very least, we hope you find your thoughts provoked and your mind stimulated. Thank you for being a part of our experiment. My best to you all, Deborah Rose

In this book it has a name - Caiti. Through her photographs of herself and photography art, I hope to that she can find the meanings she seems to be looking for and can accept them.

• Distortion of the Mind www.amazon.com/Distortions-Mind-Digital-Joshua-Keegan/dp/1449515479/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1256242951&sr=8-2 THIS IS ARTWORK THAT NOT ONLY STIMULATES THE EYES BUT SHOULD STIMULATE THE MIND.

• Unlocking Our Relationships With Respect www.amazon.com/Unlocking-Relationships-Respect-John-Hoelzel/dp/1448691419/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252256461&sr=8-5 Another contribution by John Hoelzel, SR. that deals with ideas and concepts about respect.

• Recovery for the Whole Person www.amazon.com/Recovery-Whole-Person-Mental-Spiritual/dp/1448653908/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1249515711&sr=1-1 A Book About Mental Health and Spiritual Growth This book, Recovery for the Whole Person, is intended to promote discussion, consideration, and application of spiritual resources available primarily through a personal relationship by faith with Jesus Christ. People who have a different object of their faith should be able to easily adapt much of this course to their own faith. To neglect consideration of our body, soul, or spirit as we plan for recovery is to be short sighted and deliberately choose not to play with a full deck. Since many books on recovery neglect detailed spiritual resources, this book emphasizes increased awareness and use of spiritual tools in your own recovery, including exchanging God's ways for man's ways.
