Working together, an American veteran and an APM songwriter write a song inspired by the veteran’s wartime experience and they share songwriting credit and reve- nues from licensing of their music by APM. This first release includes nine powerful songs with both vocal and non-vocal versions. We hope you will be inspired to find a place for these songs in your productions.

  • Free Yourself from Fears with NLP: Overcoming Anxiety and Living Without Worry
    Praise for Free Yourself From Fears “It has been said that the two great emotions are love and fear, and that they form the foundation for all others. Fear tends to be the source of most of the difficult feelings we experience. Learning to deal with fear is thus one of the most important life skills a person can learn. In Free Yourself From Fears Joseph O'Connor provides a wealth of knowledge and tools to help people better understand their fears and transform them into positive actions. As with his previous books, Joseph demonstrates his great gift for presenting rich and complex knowledge in a form that is both practical and easy to understand. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to move more easily and confidently through life.” ROBERT DILTS, AUTHOR OF FROM COACH TO AWAKENER & CHANGING BELIEF SYSTEMS WITH NLP “This book is an excellent example of Joseph O’Connor's elegant, enriched writing style and conveys pertinent, powerful learning for dealing with the fears of the volatile world in which we live today.” SUE KNIGHT, AUTHOR OF NLP AT WORK “With uncommon knowledge and authority, Free Yourself From Fears gives us a fresh view on our everyday anxieties. In plain language O'Connor combines the analytical with the intuitive and does it with heart. Therapists, managers and communicators in all fields will use his practical exercises for dealing with fear for years to come.” MICHAEL COLGRASS,PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING COMPOSER AND NLP TRAINER Free Yourself From Fears To Andrea Free Yourself From Fears Overcoming Anxiety and Living Without Worry Joseph O’Connor First published by Nicholas Brealey Publishing in 2005 3–5 Spafield Street 100 City Hall Plaza, Suite 501 Clerkenwell, London Boston EC1R 4QB, UK MA 02108, USA Tel: +44 (0)20 7239 0360 Tel: (888) BREALEY Fax: +44 (0)20 7239 0370 Fax: (617) 523 3708 http://www.nbrealey-books.com http://www.lambentdobrasil.com © Joseph O’Connor 2005 The right of Joseph O’Connor to be identified as the author of this work has been asserted in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.
