- - - - SCRANTON, Pa., Jan. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- If you are unable to cope with life situations and wish you were able to speak up without making a fool of yourself or hurting others... then let me introduce you to Robert E. Bidwell, M.D.'s most successful communication game, "Assert with Love". This is a hugely sophisticated assertiveness training course in a very amusing package, said J.J. Amore, President of the Scranton, Pennsylvania based High Consciousness Games Co. It is a hit for any gathering where people talk and especially useful for all types of counseling. How do you handle a Know-It-All? A Bore? A Bully? A Drunk? A Self-Sacrificer? An Over-Protective Parent? or any number of problems that occur between PEOPLE WHO WANT TO STAY CLOSE? As a young person, how do you say NO to your friends when you don't want to follow their example with ALCOHOL or DRUGS? For all those who wish they could speak up without making a fool of THEMSELVES or hurting others, Assert with Love is a great training experience. When used by professionals during individual, group or couples counseling, Assert with Love becomes such a positive experience. Assert with Love has received many letters from both therapists and clients thanking Assert with Love for the help the game has provided. One Kansas City psychologist wrote, "My clients have learned more about themselves with this game in one session than previously in many hours of conventional therapy." One Alcohol and Drug Treatment team told Assert with Love that this was the best teaching tool they had found in years. How important it is to be able to ask favors of each other without assuming obligation, or to be able to say NO with love and understanding. In short, Assert with Love teaches us by practice how to be LOVINGLY ASSERTIVE all within a fun-filled framework of laughter and comradeship. Margaret and Don Hudson originated Assert with Love because of the difficulty they had in talking frankly with one another. "I was always a very passive person," Mrs. Hudson said, "I kept suppressing my feelings." In fact, their problem became so acute that Mrs. Hudson had nervous breakdowns. But today because of her psychiatrist, Dr. Robert Bidwell, and her husband, and partially because of the game itself, Mrs. Hudson, 56, no longer needs to be hospitalized for her mental anguish. "It's really magic," Mr. Hudson, 57, said as he relaxed in Dr. Bidwell's office. "The secret of the game is its ability to elicit feedback from people." In every life situation there is an Antagonist and an Asserter. When assertiveness is in action...then disagreement turns to harmony. This is a truly great communications tool designed to teach assertiveness without aggression and the fine art of positive confrontation. Whether this is between friends, family members, business associates, or even strangers, every player has fun while learning positive communication skills. This game is distributed Internationally by High Consciousness Games, 1120 South Washington Avenue, Scranton, Pennsylvania 18505. SOURCE Assert with Love
