The ADHD Effect On Marriage

Melissa Orlov wanted to get her message across to not just people with ADHD but to all involved in a relationship.  Bringing her message to us for a Print and TV Book Publicity Tour,  Newman was able to bring Melissa’s expertise to such national exposure as The Today Show , The New York Times , The Boston Globe, CNN’s American Morning and many more.

Most couples who have ADHD affecting their marriages have no idea why they are so unhappy.  They just know that they have tried hard to make things better, and are intensely frustrated that nothing seems to work.  Because they are unaware that ADHD is playing a role, couples in these relationships often pick exactly the wrong approaches to solving their marital problems – approaches that would make sense for most couples, but not when one or both partners has ADHD.  But here’s the good news.  Once couples understand the patterns that ADHD introduces into a relationship they can turn their marriage around.

The ADHD Effect on Marriage, Understand and Rebuild Your Relationship in Six Steps isn’t about a “miracle cure,” but about providing the knowledge and tools couples need to reshape their relationship into the loving, supportive, exciting partnership they once envisioned.

Author Melissa Orlov takes a personal interest in her topic as both her husband and her daughter were diagnosed with ADHD.  After 20 +  years, her marriage is intact and her daughter is doing great!

Our Book Publicity Campaign continues with Melissa with an additional  article placed  on sheknows.com just in time for summer romance.

Peter Baksa : It's None of My Business What You Think of Me

Newman Communication’s introduced Peter Baksa’s previous book title, Point of Power, to the world with a book tour that saw the author featured on national radio networks such as Lifestyle Talk Radio and the Cable Radio Network. He appeared on radio stations all over the country from East (WHUD, New York, NY) to West (KKNW, Seattle, WA). Now, Peter Baksa has returned for a new book publicity campaign for his latest book, It’s None of My Business What You Think of Me!. Already, Peter has appeared on multiple national radio networks, including Voice of America and Money Maters. Additionally, his work has been highlighted in Tony Robins’ “Breakthrough: The Power of Crisis” section of the Huffington Post and in an interview with the website GetInspired.

About the Book:

Throughout our lives, we are constantly influenced by factors that surround us. We unknowingly make “life contracts” with parents, friends, teachers, employers, and the media, amongst other influences. “Life is a series of contracts,” Peter Baksa writes in It’s None of My Business What You Think of Me, “…these contracts can make you poor, sad, and unhealthy, if they are kept.” They work against free will and are obstructions to fulfillment; thrown up by the ego. “Oftentimes, we’re our own worst enemy,” says Baksa.

In his interview with GetInspired, Baksa states “I believe we have two choices; one is to come from a place of ego, and oftentimes ego is fear, or we have a choice to come from inspiration…which means we’re going to approach a life situation from a point of love, trust, and faith.” It’s None of My Business What You Think of Me! teaches the reader how to approach life in this way. By noticing these contracts, one is able to cancel or rewrite them in order to free yourself, and live the life you have wanted for so long.

About the Author:

In addition to writing books and speaking to audiences around the country, Peter has worked with many charities and creates music and art.

Intend, Declare, Detach

The Point of Power

Author, Peter Baksa, has spent the past decade researching ancient text and interviewing people from various walks of life to see how they developed their belief systems in regard to God, Politics and Nutrition.  The responses he received were the inspiration for The Point of Power

No matter what your life situation is, you can harness the natural laws of the universe, as indicated by scientific research , to manifest your desires. The Point of Power weaves a fabric of these theories into a message that will change your life forever.

The Point of Power guides you to:

• Intend:       Set an intention to think positive thoughts
• Declare:   State a plan and align your behaviors
• Detach:     Allow the universe to do its thing

The Point of Power teaches you how to engage the same forces that creates worlds to manifest the life you desire.  The author points to leading contemporary research in quantum physics to support his theories on lifestyle design and creation.  He shows the reader how the universe functions and how we interact with it to create our reality in the natural.  He also illustrates how we stand in the way of our successes and life goals and what we need to do to get out of the way and allow the universe to do it’s thing.

The Point of Power ties together the science of quantum physics with the evolution of the human being to show how we are in total control of our life experience through manipulation of our thoughts.

Publisher: Portfolio

Strategic change expert, Scott R. Singer turns to the book publicity services of  Newman Communications to help garner media attention for his first book, How To Hit A Curveball.  Available in stores April 1, Investor’s Business Daily is the first to talk about it!

About the book:

The recording industry never saw it coming. Xerox never saw it coming. Employees at Bear Stearns never saw it coming. Maybe even you didn’t see it coming….

Whether it be the advent of digital music, the desktop computer with a graphical interface and mouse, a major recession, or a personal layoff, divorce, or illness, how one reacts to and handles the next curveball can be the difference between success and failure.

As a professional, you want to be ready for anything. You’ll spend hours, days, even years perfecting your technique, studying the competition, and stepping up to challenges in order to make yourself an all-star. But at some point in your life, regardless of what you do or how far up the ladder you’ve climbed, you will be thrown a curveball—an unexpected challenge that comes at you quickly and without warning. The kind that forces you to rethink…everything.

Strategic change expert, Scott R. Singer shares his personal story along with business examples like the above in HOW TO HIT A CURVEBALL: Confront and Overcome the Unexpected in Business (Portfolio, April 2010, $24.95). Being able to deal with the unexpected is an invaluable business tool—but how do you do it? Curveball hitters are not born, they are made. Singer shares a psychology-researched, self-tested process that can lead anyone to the homerun derby.

Featuring prominent curveball hitters, their stories, and their steps to dealing with the unexpected: Leslie Moonves of CBS, Alan Schwartz of Bear Stearns, Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin, and Actor Michael J. Fox, HOW TO HIT A CURVEBALL is a fun yet practical book full of valuable advice and anecdotes that can help anyone avoid striking out at work (or at home) and maybe even turn those surprising challenges into tremendous opportunities.
