The Heart of the Matter: Achieving True Personal Power

by Jordan Paul

The Heart of the Matter explores what it means to stay connected to your heart, especially when you are feeling adversity. That is true personal power because it can occur only when fears do not block caring for yourself and others. The book helps confront and overcome those fears. It contains five extended teaching stories designed to make the information much more accessible and offers a practical seven-step process for attaining true personal power and thereby finding greater fulfillment. Dr. Jordan Paul is a psychotherapist who has pioneered an innovative approach for finding fulfillment in intimate relationships, parenting and at work. With profound wisdom, contagious compassion and inspiring possibilities this empowering and provocative book provides the key to building and sustaining fulfilling connections with oneself and others." —REV SANDRA ft BROWN, Ph D Director, Lloyd Center Pastoral Counseling Services San Francisco Theological Seminary "From the first page to the last, I was continually reminded to relax and return to my heart center. the only place that allows me to be my best self, while learning how to create that bond more of time in my everyday life.

Now that's how we can transform the world!" ---BRENDA WADE, Ph.D., author of Soul Psychology (Spring 2003) and What Mama Couldn't Tell Us About Love
