Getting the Sex You Want:

Shed Your Inhibitions and Reach New Heights of Passion Together

 

 

Excite and Inspire Each Other for a Lifetime of Passion

 

Communication problems can erode a relationship in and out of the bedroom. This guide takes a proven communication method and applies it to sex for the very first time.

 

Getting the Sex You Want teaches readers how to build sexual communication skills quickly and connect with their partner in a new way. Couples learn exercises that enable them to communicate their sexual needs and desires, get past old issues, and revive passion in their relationship.

 

  

 Book Reviews:


"This is the best guide for helping couples enhance their sexual pleasure that I have seen. I recommend it without reservation to every couple."  -       Harville Hendrix, Ph.D., author of "Getting the Love You Want; A Guide for Couples"

 

"Tammy Nelson takes you safely by the hand and leads you into the erotic world of passionate sex. The pace is just right, the facts are friendly, and the process powerful. This book is thorough, timely, and long-awaited. Get it, read it, enjoy it!"
-Patricia Love, Ed.D., co-author, How to Improve Your Marriage Without Talking About It

 "This book presents life-changing information in a straightforward, step-by-step manner that is easily accessible to couples interested in deepening their physical and emotional connection. Whether in the early stages of a relationship or well into a long-term one, this book provides a variety of ways to increase passion, encourage sexual curiosity and experimentation, and give you both the sex you want."
-Helen Brown, Spa Director, Mayflower Inn and Spa

 

"Getting the Sex You Want" is a straightforward and fearless guide to both the mysteries of eroticism and the importance of sexual risk-taking in committed relationships.  At the same time it is a deeply compassionate exploration of the role of sexual empathy and generosity in helping couples forge an enduring emotional connection.  No book I have read has more clearly laid out how enhancing a couple's erotic bond can lead to profound psychological healing for both partners."

Jette S. Simon, Director: The Washington DC Training Institute for Couples Therapy.

 

Tammy Nelson, MS, ATR, LADC, LPC, CIRT, is a licensed psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience working with individuals and couples, and a certified Imago therapist.

What's Eating You?

A workbook for teens with anorexia, bulimia and other eating disorders

 

 by author Tammy Nelson

 

Re-release May 2008

Book Description


In a country where a woman over a size 4 rarely makes it onto the cover of a magazine or onto our TV screens, it's not surprising that eating disorders are so prevalent in girls. Whether it's anorexia, bulimia, or binging, eating disorders are destructive and potentially deadly. What's Eating You? helps teens develop the self-esteem and self-acceptance that so often eludes girls with eating disorders. It teaches them how to overcome perfectionism, understand the role that family patterns may play in their eating disorder, and change negative self-talk about their body. As importantly, What's Eating You? shows teens that happiness comes in many sizes.

This book, released in 2003, is now being re-released with a new cover by New Harbinger Publications.  To order on Amazon, go to:

 

 http://www.amazon.com/Whats-Eating-You-Workbook-Disorders/dp/1572246073/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1207087605&sr=8-2ed in 2004
