50 Things to Know About Arguing: How to Argue More Effectively and Kindly , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 36min
50 Things to Know About Arguing, by Daniel Nelson, aims to be a practical guide to having better, more constructive, and less hurtful arguments and discussions. If you’re tired of having stressful, angry spats that don’t seem to go anywhere, this audiobook might be for you.It’s important to note there is more than one definition of the word argument, and both senses of the word arguing will be discussed here. Arguing in the first sense of the word is a verbal war, a shouting match, an angry battle of opposing views. The second sense of arguing is philosophical in nature, referring to a presentation of reasons to adopt a position. Both definitions still involve trying to convince another person of your point of view, to see your reasoning and be persuaded by it. The aim of this audiobook is to help you deal with both kinds of arguments. Within the following audiobook, you’ll learn how to argue more effectively and to create more compelling points and cases. You’ll also learn how to argue more kindly, to treat others with respect, and to avoid escalation. You’ll be glad to have listened to it, so pick up a copy as soon as you can. ungekürzt.

Anger Management Affirmations for Sisters: Positive Daily Affirmations for Sisters to Stop Fighting with Their Siblings Using the Law of Attraction, Self-Hypnosis, Guided Meditation and Sleep Learning , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 49min
Sibling fights and rivalries seem a normal part of any family relationship. They are indeed harmless, unless these fights become habitual and eventually sow resentment in children as they grow up.This is why anger management is necessary for kids and teens. Children need to learn to control their temper, so simple spats will not escalate into bigger fights. If kids know how to manage their anger, there might not even be a spat at all. Ultimately, it will lead to better sibling relationships.Unless the worst case scenario has happened, you do not have to take your children to a psychologist and have them undergo anger management sessions. One way to teach them to be patient is to have them listen to anger management affirmations.Anger management for children should be integrated in their daily lives. It must be taught and done in the most seamless way possible so that children will not be too conscious of themselves - neither will they suspect there is something wrong in their personality. Think of anger management for teens as a homeroom subject or a “sit-down” and bonding session with the whole family. Anger management for kids will help them learn to love their siblings more. Positive affirmations for teens are a good way to teach them to be responsible for their feelings and behavior as well. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susan Smith.

The Fifth Key: A Psychedelic Adventure of Human Evolution , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 254min
Unlocking living DNA and refolding it like origami was what The Book spoke of. The first key, the hallucinogen, was the easy part. But beneath the transcendent surface is a cloaked memory, which Dome believes he must resist. Can he reconcile it?Dome's new roommate, Kemma, is back from Cali to join him on the journey of the Great Awakening. She's something like a genius, and also a surfer/MMJ grower/DJ with a penchant for local craft breweries and magic brownies. Becoming much more than an epic voyage, the five keys have the power to unlock the greatest potential of humanity.Imagine the duo from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas on a journey for The Celestine Prophecy in a world like A Wrinkle in Time. That mash-up is the realm where the Fifth Key exists.The Fifth Key is short novel from the Arizona shaman, Paul Caldeaux. Mashing visionary concepts and extravagant fun, it is told through the modern eyes of Dome, an irreverent psychonaut that discovers something much deeper. Dome's search is symbolized by an over-the-top journey to transform the human race and uncover the true nature of reality.With spats of tongue-in-cheek humor mixed with eye-opening aha! moments, this extremely fun listen is not only surprising but refreshing.Engaging and action packed, The Fifth Key is a satisfying listen that easily blends thought provoking passages with moments of off-color, sometimes screwball comedy. Quantum concepts and philosophies are effortlessly weaved by Caldeaux. Steeped in a 21st century nootropic, microdosing culture, it is a full on symbolic exploration of LSD as an entheogen for the purpose of mental breakthroughs and ultimately, human evolution. ungekürzt.

Bringing Up Bébé: One American Mother Discovers the Wisdom of French Parenting , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 548min
The secret behind France's astonishingly well-behaved children is here. When American journalist Pamela Druckerman has a baby in Paris, she doesn't aspire to become a "French parent". French parenting isn't a known thing, like French fashion or French cheese. Even French parents themselves insist they aren't doing anything special. Yet the French children Druckerman knows sleep through the night at two or three months old while those of her American friends take a year or more. French kids eat well-rounded meals that are more likely to include braised leeks than chicken nuggets. And while her American friends spend their visits resolving spats between their kids, her French friends sip coffee while the kids play. Motherhood itself is a whole different experience in France. There's no role model, as there is in America, for the harried new mom with no life of her own. French mothers assume that even good parents aren't at the constant service of their children and that there's no need to feel guilty about this. They have an easy, calm authority with their kids that Druckerman can only envy. Of course, French parenting wouldn't be worth talking about if it produced robotic, joyless children. In fact, French kids are just as boisterous, curious, and creative as Americans. They're just far better behaved and more in command of themselves. While some American toddlers are getting Mandarin tutors and preliteracy training, French kids are - by design - toddling around and discovering the world at their own pace. With a notebook stashed in her diaper bag, Druckerman, a former reporter for The Wall Street Journal, sets out to learn the secrets to raising a society of good little sleepers, gourmet eaters, and reasonably relaxed parents. She discovers that French parents are extremely strict about some things and strikingly permissive about others. And she realizes that to be a different kind of parent, you don't just ungekürzt.

Spousonomics: Using Economics to Master Love, Marriage, and Dirty Dishes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 625min
Are you happy in your marriage—except for those weekly spats over who empties the dishwasher more often? Not a single complaint—unless you count the fact that you haven’t had sex since the Bush administration? Prepared to be there in sickness and in health—so long as it doesn’t mean compromising? Be honest: Ever lay awake thinking how much more fun married life used to be? If you’re a member of the human race, then the answer is probably “yes” to all of the above. Marriage is a mysterious, often irrational business. Making it work till death do you part—or just till the end of the week—isn’t always easy. And no one ever handed you a user’s manual. Until now. With Spousonomics, Paula Szuchman and Jenny Anderson offer something new: a clear-eyed, rational route to demystifying your disagreements and improving your relationship. The key, they propose, is to think like an economist. That’s right: an economist. Economics is the study of resource allocation, after all. How do we—as partners in a society, a business, or a marriage—spend our limited time, money, and energy? And how do we allocate these resources most efficiently? Spousonomics answers these questions by taking classic economic concepts and applying them to the domestic front. For example: Arguing all night isn’t a sign of a communication breakdown; you’re just extremely loss-averse—and by refusing to give an inch, you’re risking even greater losses. Stay late at the office, or come home for dinner? Be honest about your mother-in-law, or keep your mouth shut and smile? Let the cost-benefit analysis make the call. Getting your spouse to clean the gutters isn’t a matter of nagging or guilt-tripping; it’s a question of finding the right incentives. Being “too busy” to exercise or forgetting your anniversary (again): your overtaxed memory and hectic schedule aren’t to blame—moral hazard is. And when it comes to having more ungekürzt.
