Maria the Nurse
Maria has spent over forty years as a dedicated nurse, helping children and adults with learning disabilities reach their full potential. Her career in psychiatry was not just about caring for others, but also about learning to extend that care to herself. Maria's journey took her from Ireland to Australia and Saudi Arabia. She lovingly cared for premature babies, unaware that she would later have a premature baby of her own in her forties. At its core, this book is about Maria's quest to be seen and loved, ultimately discovering that she needed to see and love herself first. Despite confronting bullying, loss, divorce, illness, and grief through countless nursing courses, Maria lived and worked in an unconscious environment. Her journey towards consciousness was transformative, awakening her to the power and authenticity of understanding her own story. Embracing her true self without judgment became her path forward. This is Maria's story – a truly inspirational account of navigating from a large family to living her one true life, overcoming emotional struggles along the way.

Myself, My Partner
The couple relationship can offer the most wonderful and enriching bond for two individuals. Research has shown that people who are part of a couple live longer, the support of the relationship acting as a buffer against many of the pressures and demands that life throws up. However, whilst being in a relationship can be a tremendous boon, it can also be the root of disharmony between the partners or in the individual themselves. Tony Humphreys believes that in order to have a contented and fulfilling relationship, each partner must first look honestly at themselves, learn to love themselves and from that, love and respond to their partner. Myself, My Partner, explores the whole area of self, of choosing a partner and the issue of togetherness. It provides guidance and groundwork for personal healing, growth, development and resolving conflict within relationships.
