— In a world full of influencers trying to teach us metabolism hacks, punishing exercises, and focusing on what we can’t—or shouldn’t—eat, what if we just listened to our bodies? A combination of personal reflections on healing a lifetime of body shame and professional opinions about the toxic nature of diet culture, Lindsay Carney’s Living Over Dieting: A Mid-Sized Girl's Guide to Reclaiming Your Life and Accepting Your Now Body is like an honest conversation with your best friend. Whether you are recovering from a clinically diagnosed eating disorder or body dysmorphia or just feel defeated by the fruitless pursuit of performative health, this book is for you. Since about age 10, Lindsay Carney trained herself to suck in her stomach. After years of hating her body and wrestling with what felt like an addiction to food, Lindsay began her healing journey in early 2018. Feeling desperate, in a frantic search for professional help, she stumbled upon the Health at Every Size (HAES) and anti-diet movement. Immersing herself in this community allowed her to begin redefining and reclaiming her health—body and mind. As Lindsay’s personal transformation took place, she began seeing how influenced she had been by toxic messages about health, diet, and body shape. The more she looked, the more her eyes were opened to the collective suffering many people are experiencing at the hands of diet culture. As a licensed clinical social worker, Lindsay felt inspired to specialize in helping other women overcome body shame. As she shared her experience with clients and bits and pieces on her personal Facebook page, she had a vision to create something bigger. And thus, Living Over Dieting was born!

— From the dark ages, the treatment of those mentally ill has progressed from chaining to a wall for those afflicted with mental disturbance who never saw the light of day. However, in US emergency rooms, our young people on the brink of despair are held hostage for psychiatric care. We have been bound to the antiquated biomedical model of mental health care. It is fortunate that we, as a society, are experiencing a mental health crisis of enormous proportions currently only in the sense that we are beginning to hear a wake-up call as we witness a total breakdown of our mental healthcare system regarding the mental stability of our youth and other groups of everyday people. Healthcare professionals and societies are beginning to understand that mental health is integral to overall health and is more than the absence of symptoms of psychological distress. The mastery important to us all includes the acquisition of the capacity to reflect, to relate on a deep level with others emotionally, and to empathize in the face of change or stressful situations. Resilient young people who possess these qualities and the ability to wrestle through adversity when they have the skillsets to do so, lead more successful lives when they know how to make lemonade out of lemons.
— Subtle energies-does that sound too "woo-woo," not the province of real science? Yet behind the scenes, brilliant minds have been dedicated to finding out what lies behind what's apparent in the universe-and how this can enhance our lives and our understanding of who we really are. Dr. Jerry Gin has had a lifelong passion for science, even founding businesses based on his knowledge of chemistry. But he's also had a lifelong calling to understand the workings of the universe. This has led him to wonderful adventures in science and spirituality, discoveries that turn our understanding of matter on its head. His research shows that we all have the capacity to sense invisible forces-subtle energies-which benefit us even more once we become conscious of them. Whether it's raising the quality of our drinking water . . . harmonizing the negative effects of electromagnetic frequencies . . . or dowsing to learn which foods, supplements, etc. are good for us, what we really end up discovering is that there's more to life-and to us-than we thought. Science, Spirituality, and Subtle Energies welcomes us to this invisible-but-potent world, offering not just explanations and illustrations, but also hands-on exercises to experience subtle energies directly, as well as unique affirmations from Joachim Wippich to attune us to our highest (I AM) being. This book is grounded in the scientific view that we don't have to take things on faith but can find out for ourselves. Yet faith opens up, once we know who we are at our most essential level. We are creators; and we can create in harmony with the very nature of the universe-and thereby heal ourselves and the world. This book has two primary purposes: to (1) reveal our connectedness and so help humanity advance, and (2) provide tools for investigating the hidden world.

— In Mystical Activism, we each hold the power to change the world right where we are. To call these "end times" is not hyperbole. We are in trouble and the signs are everywhere: extreme political divisions; xenophobic violence; enormous wealth inequity; poverty and homelessness; racism, sexism, and ageism; arms buildups and unending wars; and, most critical of all, terrifying climate disruption associated with man-made global warming. We are the cause of these dark times. Driven by left-brain beliefs, illusions and obsessions, humanity races headlong toward the collapse of civilization. Fortunately, the solution to these mounting crises also lies in the human psyche, arising from a most surprising source: the right brain’s natural mystical consciousness. Our survival depends on whether we grasp and resolve this paradox in time.

Dr. Bleck, Chapter 1. — Incorporating all the effective, significant psychological theories widely in use today, SCT takes us on a journey of personal exploration and emotional healing built on the theory that we can only break free of the disabling effects of our hurts if we (first) become fully aware of their true origins, (next) re-experience the trauma, and (finally) complete the healing process by confronting the source of the pain. The text is completed by an easy-to-use self-hypnosis script designed to bring on the state of relaxation necessary for reliving and re-experiencing the events that created our symptoms. Options for giving the pain back to its source (completing) are also offered.
— All four of the bestselling BrightStar Empowerments by Irma Kaye Sawyer and the Akashic Wisdom Keepers together for the first time in a single volume! Timely and powerful guidance on such topics as abundance, empath empowerment, holistic health, family of origin issues, energy vampires, and much more! —“An essential part of healing and restoring yourselves is the belief in the essential benevolence of Life and its constant movement towards balance. Even if you cannot always see it at the moment or understand the mysteries, you are LOVED. To “BE” the love you are is the return to your own true essence as light and openness—the Buddha-nature. The mind will throw all kinds of justifications at you as to why this is dangerous, and on a certain level perhaps it’s true, but dangerous to who? To deny love to yourself, others and the world at large is to keep yourself limited. A key to all healing, especially on the mental/emotional level, is to see through the eyes of love.”

— Feeling stuck? You're not alone. Millions of people are stuck in meaningless jobs, empty relationships, and difficult situations, repeating the same unhealthy patterns over and over again. You know there's something more. Deep down, you've been having that uncomfortable gnawing feeling. Fortunately, there IS an answer and it is much more accessible and available to you than you may think!! Now is the time to stop searching and finally get more clarity, more meaning, and discover your life's true purpose. People so often try to overcome an obstacle in their life on their own but then they get discouraged... especially when there doesn't appear to be any real reason for why they can't grasp that success. Sometimes it is just that they need a wee bit of encouragement, a boost, or a different perspective to gain the motivation they need to achieve their goals. Truth is: if a person REALLY wanted to do something and could do it on their own - they most likely would have done it already! One reason that people fall short of their goals is that they keep attempting to solve the same problems with the same toolkit – themselves! How can a toolkit be expected to fix itself? You must have a clear, workable strategy that suits the way that YOU are wired, you need to clear out any suspicious wiring (negative self-talk) holding you back, and then you need to flat out get stuff done. But of course, not just any kind of stuff... the right stuff, at the right time, in the right order… A wee bit like playing music!
— A paradigm-shifting approach to treating mental disorders like anxiety, depression, and ADHD with food and nutrients, based on the original, groundbreaking research of two leading scientists. We are in the midst of a mental health crisis. An estimated one in five American adults suffer from some form of mental illness. Despite the billions of dollars spent in pharmaceutical research and the rising popularity of antidepressant drugs, we are more depressed and anxious than ever before. What if we’re looking for solutions in the wrong places? What if instead of treating mental illness with prescriptions and medication, we changed what we eat and how we feed our brains? Leading scientists Bonnie Kaplan, PhD and Julia Rucklidge, PhD have dedicated their lives to studying the role of nutrition in mental health. Together, they have published over 300 peer-reviewed scientific papers, many of which reveal the healing power of nutrients in the form of vitamins and minerals, and the surprising role they play in brain health. In this paradigm-shifting book, Kaplan and Rucklidge share their groundbreaking research, explaining how to feed your brain to stabilize your mood, stave off depression, and make yourself more resilient to daily stress. The Better Brain uncovers the hidden causes of the rising rates of depression and anxiety, from the decrease of nutrients in our soil to our over-reliance on processed food, and provides a comprehensive program for better brain health.

— My life story focuses on how I learned about the Way of the Heart—living in alignment with the guidance whispered by the divine consciousness residing within human hearts. While many people follow that inner guidance, the pivotal importance of living open-heartedly versus closed-heartedly is the most important choice a person makes. To understand that I needed to re-educate myself. Overcoming what I was taught in school and the media and by my elders to view reality in a novel way required lots of mystical experiences, challenges, and love. Eventually, a beautiful, nurturing view of reality came into focus. Over twelve years, I wrote about what I found in all sorts of ways. Finally, I published The Magnificent Soul: The Art of Living in a World Founded on Consciousness. That book expresses the Way of the Heart in a textbook-like format that’s informative but dry. Reflecting on how resistant I was to learn what’s shared in that book, I remembered incidents in my life that pushed me forward. The hurdles I jumped, the mystical experiences that transpired, and how I came around to accepting such a radical view of reality made my life a stranger-than-fiction story. Having lived sixty-one years, I’ve learned that few people can let go of the views we’re taught when young. Certainly, small shifts occur in everyone. However, significant shifts in our world views require powerful challenges to break us away from the dogma we were taught in our youth. So, in this book, I’m sharing how my curious life pushed me over many transformational hurdles to finally open my heart wide enough to see the perfection of everything. I pray this story will help readers like you to benefit from my journey.
— Poetry to Heal, Inspire and Enjoy — Poetry Rx presents 50 great poems as seen through the eyes of a renowned psychiatrist and New York Times bestseller. In this book, you will find insights into love, sorrow, ecstasy, and everything in between: Love in the moment or for a lifetime; love that is fulfilling or addictive; when to break up and how to survive when someone breaks up with you. Separate sections deal with responses to the natural world, and the varieties of human experience (such as hope, reconciliation, leaving home, faith, self-actualization, trauma, anger, and the thrill of discovery). Other sections involve finding your way in the world and the search for meaning, as well as the final stages of life. In describing this multitude of human experiences, using vignettes from his work and life, Rosenthal serves as a comforting guide to these poetic works of genius. Through his writing, the workings of the mind, as depicted by these gifted writers speak to us as intimately as our closest friends. Rosenthal also delves into the science of mind and brain. Who would have thought, for example, that listening to poetry can cause people to have goosebumps by activating the reward centers of the brain? Yet research shows that to be true. And who were these fascinating poets? In a short biosketch that accompanies each poem, Rosenthal draws connections between the poets and their poems that help us understand the enigmatic minds that gave birth to these masterworks. Altogether, a fulfilling and intriguing must-read for anyone interested in poetry, the mind, self-help, and genius.
— George takes you on a refreshing journey into your heart to unveil, a superconscious Soul that is your True Self, an Inner God referred to as the Holy Spirit by Christians and the Atman by Hindus. After offering a consciousness-based view of reality, this book goes on to show you how to open and follow your heart to align your path with your divine purpose. By following this way of the heart you’ll experience joy, peace, and the fullness of life that emerges from your Soul.
Far from offering simple platitudes and general principles, George presents remarkable scientific research offering compelling support for the theory that a Soul or divine super-consciousness resides in the human heart. Additionally, excerpts from all the major religion’s spiritual texts are shown to further endorse the age-old soul in the heart concept. Then, to form a complete model of human consciousness the ego-mind in the head and an emotional gut-mind are shown to form a head-heart-gut “Triality" of human consciousness. This model readily resolves mysteries that have remained unsolved by conventional matter-based science. For instance, the Superconscious-Soul is shown to be one's inner source of intuition, conscience, genius, love, happiness, health, infallible wisdom, and more. To support all of this, the book goes even deeper to reveal a parallel universe founded on consciousness to provide an accurate model of reality. The physical realm is where we live on Earth in physical bodies. A parallel astral realm, on another side of the vail, harbors paranormal mysteries including the afterlife, angels, so-called aliens, heaven, etc. With this complete framework of reality in hand, a cosmology embracing human individuality reveals two categories of life paths. One leads to the astral realm where ego-driven fulfillment of personal desires leads back to the One-Who-Is-All. Conversely, this book recommends and focuses on the “meek shall inherit the Earth” path— a soul-propelled adventure leading to the full blossoming of love here on Earth.

This book is about the moral and spiritual dilemmas in modern society, that we’re facing with the integration of religions, cultures, and spirituality.

In this book, she also talks about different themes connected to spirituality, growing up as a child with spirituality, connecting within relationships, and the spiritual quest for unconditional love. During her reflections, she wrote about the religious blocking to find spiritual meaning and the function of religion. The later reflections are about her personal quest and its meaning, and how she integrated spirituality into her life. Shehnaaz has a progressive, open-minded, non-judgmental, and optimistic view on spirituality, and she wants to present with this writing some taboo subjects that are not addressed well yet play a huge part in human development, as she experienced herself and as she has seen around her.
— At the age of 56, Rob A. Gentile had a massive heart attack followed by a profound near-death experience. On his journey to a heart transplant, he was close to death again and entered the Ethereal a second time. He found himself inside a shapeless, formless vacuum of unending and infinite vastness. He was everywhere at once, scattered across a timeless expanse and connected to the wisdom of the universe—all of it without words. He saw and simultaneously became part of a gigantic interactive web of twinkling lights covering the Earth and stretching into infinity. Curiously, some parts of the web were brighter, some dim, and some completely dark. He later came to believe that this web represents a network that binds us all and is built upon quarks—the smallest elements of matter, and which are made of light. While in the Ethereal, he understood that each quark of light symbolized a life. He realized that if he hurt himself, he hurt everything connected to him, but if he loved, the light would spread. Rob also saw his daughter with special needs, perfect, whole, and radiant.
The most important message he received was of unity, oneness, and our real identity. In Quarks of Light, Rob shares his journey and provides a roadmap for overcoming adversity, staying in spirit, and connecting to the Universal language of love and light.

— This book combines shamanism with inner trance states to release blockages, restore fragmented suppressed energy, or interact with past life exploration to make transformative, lasting changes. This is not only a handbook for hypnotherapists but will also benefit anyone interested in consciousness exploration or the potential of permanent healing. Shamanism understands that within the inner worlds everything is both conscious and interactive; it accepts that the physical world interacts with the non-physical, spiritual ones, and that those realities can be communicated with in real time. Without any shamanic training, the average individual can access their own unconscious beliefs that are wired into the brain’s neuroplasticity. Trauma can be released to restore wholeness, or qualities and skills can be integrated from the soul’s vast pool of experiences.

— Full of spiritual wisdom and insights, Mystic at the Edge is a book you can pick up at any time to uplift, enlighten, and encourage you. The first part spans Maureen Chen's life from growing up in 'White' Australia, marrying her Chinese husband, traveling through Asia in search of a monastery where they could pursue the teachings of Buddha; he to become a monk, and her a nun, onto Europe and back to Australia through Asia once again. In Australia, Maureen and Tom find a philosophy that suits them. They end up returning to Asia where Maureen opens and sustains a number of meditation centers in various countries. In parts two and three Maureen shares deep and meaningful explorations and contemplations on practical spirituality and how her spiritual philosophy and lifestyle interface with wider world views. Entertaining yet powerful, and perhaps at times challenging, Mystic at the Edge shows that spirituality is not about being flaky, counter-cultural, or religious. Spirituality is a natural calling in all of us to practice being who we really are and support each other in making a better world.
— Ever since Eve was banned from the garden, women have endured the oftentimes painful and inaccurate definitions foisted upon them by the patriarchy. Maiden, mother, and crone, representing the three stages assigned to a woman’s life cycle, have been the limiting categories of both ancient and modern (neo-pagan) mythology. And one label, in particular, rankles crone. The word conjures a wizened hag—useless for the most part, marginalized by appearance and ability. None of us has ever truly fit the old-crone image, and for today’s midlife women, a new archetype is being birthed: The Creatrix. In Creatrix Rising, Stephanie Raffelock lays out—through personal stories and essays—the highlights of the past fifty years, in which women have gone from a quiet strength to a resounding voice. She invites us along on her own transformational journey by providing probing questions for reflection so that we can flesh out and bring to life this new archetype within ourselves. If what the Dalai Lama has predicted—that women will save the world—proves true, then the creatrix will for certain be out front, leading the pack.
— Inclined Elders is a call to action for you to opt for Incline. Not only for your personal fulfillment but also to help fuel a social "legacy" that increases the number of positive older role models in everyday life. I have written this book to inspire, inform, and challenge you. By the time you reach the last page, I hope you will have made a new choice: to become an inspiring example of a life of Incline so our society relinquishes – once and for all – the notion that aging is synonymous with "decline," "decrepit," "senile," and "over-the-hill.” In this book, over 50 men and women ranging in age from 40 to 100 share their tips and techniques on how to live a life of Incline. Their strategies are supported by scientific evidence from the fields of Positive Psychology, Anthropology, and Sociology. The Inclined Elders are the women and men who have made a conscious choice to ignore society's negative mindset of "decline" and "over-the-hill" as we age. Instead, we embrace a positive mindset of continuing to Incline and climb ever upwards.
— I had no reason to question the life I was living. I did everything I was supposed to do to live an amazing life – great education, great career, married, mother, home-owner, nice-car owner, fancy vacation taker – or so I thought. I was just rushing to cross things off my to-do list one after another, never stopping to ask myself if all this doing was making me happy. None of my checklists said find joy, be fulfilled, authentically align with my soul. But then through a series of serendipitous circumstances, perfectly orchestrated by the Universe, it all came crashing in on me. I was forced to realize that none of the life I created made me happy. My life was amazing on the outside. But on the inside, I longed for something deeper, meaningful, more. So, I scheduled a breakdown. Hello Universe, It’s Me is not just my wake-up call. It’s yours too. I take you on my journey but as I do I provide you with the tools you need to see that your story matters, the way you navigate your life matters, and finding who you are meant to be and what you are meant to offer this world matters too.
— Burnout is costing us. There are the personal costs to health and finances, organizational costs in lost productivity and sick leave, and national costs when it comes to healthcare services and similar. Following her own first-hand experience, as well as the countless similar scenarios she’s seen in her role as an executive coach, Suzi McAlpine has created a book about burnout to help create environments and organizational cultures that reduce its occurrence. This couldn’t come at a more important time. The World Health Organisation has upgraded the classification of burnout to a syndrome – believing it to be a significant factor influencing people’s health and, by extension, that of our organizations and societies. As well as actionable tools and key takeouts, each chapter/ section will include information about how to recognize the signs of burnout, and practical how-tos for leaders to reduce its presence in organizations. She also explains how to treat and address burnout when it is present.

— As parents, we want the best for our children. When I experienced my child choosing a behavior that did not resonate with me, I embraced the opportunity to travel back to the beginning. It was at the beginning and onward that I discovered my truth. The pain and suffering of everyday experiences from childhood to my adulthood had created a false sense of self. As a mom and a human, I was operating from that falseness. In the discovery of this awareness, I began to understand a much wiser way of parenting and living that encompassed an open heart, more compassion, and ultimately more love for me and for my children. It is a story about love and letting go of fear that often drives our perception of the everyday.

— The Devil’s Yoga” is a raw and powerful manuscript about a woman’s travel through a struggle of entrapment and into a journey of liberation. While the content in this manuscript may not be universal, it reflects the voices of many who have experienced the complexities of: both the light and shadow sides of plant medicines; sorcerers disguised as shamans, and; healing centers that give priority to profits over human beings. It is imperative to know the light and dark sides of plant medicine ceremonies because false-shamans who engage in energetic manipulation, shamanic sorcery, and sexual predation do exist. These terms might sound extreme to many who have experienced miraculous healings using plant medicines such as ayahuasca. Yet, more and more information has been uncovered about the shadow side of sacred ceremonies. The narrative encourages a discussion intended to promote information beneficial for the healing of planetary wounds.
— In the beginning, there were no stars or planets, there was no space and no time, no opposites, nor any contrast. There was only the stillness of a deep longing, and the deep longing was the Great Spirit. The Great Spirit longed to know itself, because there was nothing else to know. So it asked the question, What Am I? It wanted to experience the answer in many ways, so within its stillness, it created many smaller spirits called souls, each asking the question, What Am I? So the one became the many and yet they were still one. And each soul created within its own stillness a separate region called mind, and each mind asked the question, What Am I? And each mind was given the gift of space and time and contrast. Each was given light and dark, here and there, past and future, big and small, up and down, hot and cold, right and wrong, male and female. And each contrast brought desire, and each desire was the asking and the answering of the eternal question, What Am I? And each mind was given the gift of forgetting. So that its experience could be real, each would forget that it is a creator surrounded by its creations. Each would experience itself as separate, and restricted to a vibration called physical, and each would believe itself contained by a shape with head, arms, and legs.
— Many people are seeking more happiness and fulfillment. Many of us feel devoid of inner peace, frustrated that our dreams won’t materialize, struggle in our personal relationships and experience a shortage of time, money, or love. At a deep level, we are attempting to live our lives built on faulty foundations – conditioned beliefs that no longer serve us. These beliefs create energy blocks that sabotage us and our potential. Life really is a dance, not a battle! When we no longer choose to battle through life, but surrender to presence and to love, we will create for ourselves a shift to bliss. The more we trust in the Universe, the more inner peace we will find within us, and this will be reflected back to us in our lives. Our lives will still inevitably contain the light and the dark – creativity, gains, and joy as well as challenges, losses, and sadness - but these will no longer have such a hold on us. We cannot have the light without the dark. We come to know that life is a cycle of experiences that come and go, building up and breaking down, forever changing, and we do not need to over-identify with any of it. If we have a bad day, we know that “this too shall pass” and if we have a wonderful day, we give gratitude and also know that it too shall pass!
— Love from the Vortex & Other Poems (Kaleidoscope Vibrations, LLC), is a poet and scholar-activist Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz’s first full-length collection. An archaeological exploration on love and intimacy, the book charts her journey of finding and losing love over the span of three decades with six different men who came into her life at various times but also offers a universal take on what can happen when one seeks love and connection with others, and the lessons that follow when that connection and love is lost. Revealing moments of happiness, fantasy, frustration, and eventually dealing with the dissolution of relationships, the book moves beyond these anticipated stages to moments of grace and beauty that come with the discovery and practice of self-love, and a fuller understanding of what it means to truly love someone as your love yourself.
— Based on true events, The Healing is the story of Cate Henderson who, after twenty-six years in an abusive relationship, sets out on a quest to find healing. Cate packs up everything she owns and leaves Calgary on an odyssey westward, to Vancouver Island, where her ever-present journal and the abundance of nature become the foundation of her self-recovery. She yearns for something deeper and then, when she isn't looking, she finds love with the solid and virtuous Ethan. Cate thinks his stead-fast love is what she is searching for, but soon realizes she needs to do her own work, that love for herself is the key. Cate gets thrown off-course when Lyme Disease, an earthquake in Nepal, her daughter's mental health challenges, and her move with Ethan to the Middle East, cause her to lose her new-found awareness. Her heart calls her to endure the lows and enjoy the highs, to let go of the ties that bind and the fear that controls. With echoes of Eat, Pray Love, The Healing is a raw and vulnerable exploration of human resilience. At times both painful and uplifting, it's a story about love, examining motherhood, partnership, grief, expectation and optimism, and the journey inward to self-love.
