PSYCH-K...The Missing Peace In Your Life! -
Your reality is created by your beliefs.
These beliefs, usually subconscious, are often the result of lifelong programming,
and represent a powerful influence on human behavior. Studies in neuroscience
indicate that as much as 95% of our consciousness is actually subconscious.
Its the subconscious mind that is the store-house for our attitudes, values,
and beliefs. It is from our beliefs that we form perceptions about the
world and ourselves, and from these perceptions we develop behaviors. Usually,
it is self-defeating behaviors we wish to change. Often the most effective
way to change a behavior is to change the subconscious belief(s) that support
it. Based on years of split-brain research, also known as Brain Dominance
Theory, PSYCH-K provides a variety of ways to quickly identify and transform
beliefs that sabotage you into beliefs that support you, in any area of
your life.

Biogenealogy: Decoding the Psychic Roots of
Illness: Freedom from the Ancestral Origins of Disease - Biogenealogy:
Decoding the Psychic Roots of Illness offers protocols for identification
and treatment for conflicts that can span generations. While the idea that
emotional stress lies at the origin of every illness is becoming more readily
acceptable today, it also is possible to trace the root cause of an illness
to our ancestors--their unresolved psychic distress can become part of
the cellular memory inherited by their descendants. Until the issue has
been settled successfully, it will continue to trigger illnesses in the
generations that follow to offset the mind’s inability to resolve the problem.
Illness is the body’s way of protecting those who experience severe emotional
shock or excessive amounts of stress.

BioSpirituality: Focusing As a Way to Grow:
The body can be connected with emotions,
mind, relationships (with other people and with environment) and with spirit.
"Focusing," an approach developed by Eugene Gendlin, directs us to attend
to the felt sense of what is going on inside our body. This is the intuitive,
right-brained way our unconscious mind brings to our attention the rightness
and wrongness of what we are doing; the itch that says (my words), "examine
what you are experiencing, because there is something out of harmony, out
of alignment, misdirecting us from our proper life course." Gendlin teaches
that "the direction toward a felt sense is always into and through the
feeling, never away from it." Feelings and emotions change only when we
identify the felt sense associated with the feeling and seek out the roots
behind this - for these are what anchor the feeling in our psyche and prevent
its release.

You Can Heal Your Life: You Can Heal Your
Life has been republished with bright, beautiful illustrations in full,
living color and exquisite typography--each and every page is a work of
art by artist Joan Perrin Falquet. The timeless message of the book is
that we are each responsible for our own reality and "dis-ease." Hay believes
we make ourselves ill by having thoughts of self-hatred. She includes a
directory of ailments and emotional causes for each with a corresponding
affirmation to help overcome the illness. For example, the probable cause
of multiple sclerosis is "mental hardness, hard-heartedness, iron will,
and inflexibility." The healing "thought pattern" would be: "By choosing
loving, joyous thoughts, I created a loving joyous world. I am safe and
free." --P. Randall Cohan

Loving What Is: Four Questions That Can Change
Your Life - Known simply as "The Work," Byron Katie's methods are clean
and straightforward. The basis is a series of four questions addressed
to your own lists of written assumptions. Whether you're angry with your
boss, frustrated with your teen's behavior, or appalled at the state of
the world's environment, Katie suggests you write down your most honest
thoughts on the matter, and then begin the examination. Starting with,
"Is it true?" and continuing with explorations of "Who would you be without
that thought?" this method allows you to get through unhelpful preconceptions
and find peace. An integral part of the process is "turning the thought
around," and at first this can seem like you're simply blaming yourself
for everything. Push a little harder, and you'll find a very responsible
acceptance of reality, beyond questions of fault and blame.

The Path of the DreamHealer: My Journey Through
the Miraculous World of Energy - The Path
of the Dreamhealer is not just remarkably well written, it turns out to
be a very penetrating account of the human spirit in relationship to the
cosmic whole. Adam guides us with precision ease through the Creation,
how our body, mind and spirit integrate into all that is in such an easy
to read and grasp format. Its illustrations well enhance the effectiveness
of the processes outlined in the book. Though I am aware of other critics'
counterclaims on Adam's healing techniques, I agree with Adam that there
are no miracles involved here, rather a knowing more of your Self involved
here. It is only due to ignorance that things appear or seem miraculous.
Adam's honest and refreshing advice has been for everyone to practice,
practice, practice! Ability is involved and naturally needs to be cultivated
through diligent exercise, which includes feeling your tai chi energy ball,
seeking auras, and forming imaginative visualization skill with the help
of the colorful illustrations included. I have come to the conclusion that
this outstanding literary offering is an invitation to transcend many of
our current healing practices without any mind numbing intellectual jargon,
from psychoanalysis to reiki. More astounding is the realization that this
is the work of an extraordinarily bright and gifted teenager. By Charles
Wildbank

The Power of Intention: After years of
spiritual study and reflection, inspirational speaker and best-selling
author Wayne Dyer has emerged a highly esteemed teacher. His current message
about tapping into the power of intention may sound like good old positive
thinking: just stay focused on what you want, rather than focusing on the
lack of having what you want. But the teaching here goes deeper than just
controlling thoughts (although he does acknowledge that thought control
is a surprisingly challenging and significant endeavor). This book might
help readers land a better job, but it's more relevant for those who are
ready to detach from an ego-driven life filled with quick fixes of happiness
and step into a more authentic, joyful, and spiritually fulfilling life.
His core teachings speak to tapping into a universal source of energy that
can also be called the "power of intention." He calls people who are consciously
co-creating with this energy source "connectors" and describes them as
"individuals who have made themselves available for success...They don't
say With my luck things won't work out. Instead, you're more likely to
hear something like, I intend to create this and I know it will work out."
Connectors are also committed to Dyer's "seven faces of intention"--creativity,
kindness, love, beauty, expansion, abundance and receptivity, which he
speaks to throughout the book. Each chapter concludes with five suggestions
for becoming stronger connectors, such as how to monitor one's inner speech
or shift out of low-energy beliefs.

Quantum-Touch: The Power to Heal
- Quantum-Touch is the touch-based healing technique that uses the chi
of both practitioner and client, bringing them into harmony to allow the
body to heal itself. Quantum-Touch differs from other healing techniques
because it does not require long years of study and presents none of the
common hurdles of understanding or application; anyone can learn to use
it to become a healer, both of others and of self. In this new edition
of his best-selling guide, Richard Gordon leads the reader step by step,
clearly explaining how to use breathing and body-focusing techniques to
raise one's energy levels. Once that is achieved, the healer can correct
posture and alignment, reduce pain and inflammation, help balance emotional
distress, and even heal pets. Above all, Quantum-Touch can be used in tandem
with all other healing modalities, including Western medicine, and its
efficacy has been attested to by physicians, acupuncturists, chiropractors,
and other healing professionals.

Love Thyself: The Message from Water III
- “The common language that the people of the world have
been seeking is found in water crystals. Water speaks for what is in our
mind. Water awakens the subconscious memory in each person. . . . I now
know why water is indispensable to the phenomenon of life, and why alternative
therapies exist and why they're effective. Water helped me understand religion
and prayer and gave me a clue to understanding the nature of energy. It
helped me understand the relationship between humanity and the cosmos.
It gave me a clue to help me understand what dimensionality is. I could
come one step closer to understanding the eternal theme of humanity that
asks where we come from, why we are here, and what happens when we die.
“Thus,
for the release of this, the third volume in my series of The Message from
Water, I decided to choose what the world most urgently needs at present
as a theme. That is, of course, the need to eliminate war and terrorism
throughout the world. The theme I have chosen is ‘prayer.’ When I thought
about it more deeply, I realized that prayer is most effectively sent when
each person in the world raises their energy of love by imagining a scene
where the peoples of the world are living in peace. I've been taught this
through the process of asking water many questions.
“For
this reason, the title of this book is ‘Love Thyself. First you must shine
with positive, high-spirited vibrations, and be full of love. In order
to do that, I think it's important to love, thank, and respect yourself.
If that’s the case, then each of those vibrations will be sent out into
the world and the cosmos, and the great symphony of that harmonic vibration
will wrap our planet in waves of love that serve to cherish our Heaven-granted
lives. This is the message from water.” - Masaru Emoto

The Complete Idiot's Guide to Feng Shui:
This guide is certainly not aimed at idiots. Recent years have seen a surge
of 'how to' books on feng shui, but this American Masterpiece tops the
lot - it peels away the layers of superstition and myth permeating the
modern practice. This is a book to dip in and out of rather than sit down
for a chronological read. Be prepared to be distracted by the many topics
covered. On the other hand, for anyone who wants to read well presented
material presented in a logical order, this book is hard to beat.
