Meditations for New Moms: Reflections, Scripture, and Wisdom for Mommy's First Year
by Sandra Drescher-LehmanHow does a new mom face the wonder and the wear that a baby brings? What happens to the woman she was? Is it normal to laugh and cry simultaneously?Sandra Drescher-Lehman, in her disarmingly forthright way, gives language to the eternally long hours of being with babies, the holy moments that change exhaustion to exhilaration, the private fears, that sudden gratitude for one’s own mother.Drescher-Lehman’s own hands and heart are deep in this subject. She is a writer and mom to two preschoolers. Her voice is gritty, yet grateful. Her moods move through the range that all mothers know. She brings comfort. She lends identification to this most basic, yet most personal, experience.Each meditation is brief. Each offers a short Scripture passage and prayer and then suggests an idea or exercise that a preoccupied mom can carry throughout her day.With a beautiful layout, updated hardcover design, and a ribbon marker, this makes a perfect gift for expectant and new mothers.

Meditations for Transformation
by Larry MoenAt some point, we all seek to &“transform&” our lives. It may be a spiritual or physical transformation, the desire for a new career, or a change in relationship. Whatever the challenge of your transformation, this collection of guided meditations offers you many paths to facilitate that change, improve the quality of your life, move through your daily existence, and tap into your higher self.The higher self consists of an inner core of pure beauty which is a descendant of Divine Energy. This beauty exists deep within and can be perceived as a hollow cylinder of vibration and light. The desire to see causes the reflection, and at that point loving light penetrates the perception of fearful darkness and transformation occurs, by turning inside out, or reversing.Creative imagery is a tool that can change the inner knowledge and perceptions by allowing you to see the outside world from within first. Transformation occurs during the changing of the guard, or reality, from Nothing to Something or Something to Nothing.Meditations for Transformation provides wonderful alternative realities from a cross-section of professionals including, physicians, psychologists, healers, teachers, and authors who have found ways to help themselves, and the people they love, attain inner change and growth.I was first introduced to guided imagery at a workshop called &“Healing Your Inner Child&” taught by Margot Escott. My journey into healing and opening up to the love that is available to all of us inspired me to pursue many paths of personal growth, such as self-hypnosis, Tai-Chi, yoga, visualization, chanting and other explorations. While experiencing these avenues, I found I was growing into a more calm, serene person.Also, many athletes achieve peak performance in their particular sports through practicing meditative visualization. Professional golfers and tennis players are among those who use these techniques to improve their games. Visualizing that you can successfully manage a situation helps you confront and master that situation. Visualize yourself already accomplishing a goal, and your mind and body assume you have. Certain thoughts produce related emotions. If you think sad thoughts, you experience unhappiness. If you think fearful thoughts, you experience anxiety. If you think joyful thoughts, you experience happiness.For example, think about your kitchen; close your eyes and imagine what the room looks like. Next, see if you can remember all the colors in your kitchen. Now imagine taking a piece of lemon, slicing it, putting it into your mouth, and taking a bite. Did you start to salivate? This is an example of intended thought into imagery. You now see that you do have the ability to change your reality.When you enter this new reality family, you may discover your thoughts no longer control you, but that you are able to control your thoughts. The intent comes from center. Just as a potter molds his clay, you are capable of transforming yourself in any manner you choose. You can change your programming. You can develop greater self-awareness and self-love and realize your full potential as a Spiritual Light Being having a human experience.It is my hope that you will become the person you were truly meant to be. May you obtain inner peace, love, serenity, and happiness for the good you accomplish by guiding yourself and others. Good luck and happy images!

Meditations on the Peaks: Mountain Climbing as Metaphor for the Spiritual Quest
by Julius EvolaEvola articulates the close relationship between the physical rigors of mountain climbing and the ascent of the initiate toward self-transcendence. Julius Evola, a leading exponent of esoteric thought, was also an ardent mountain climber who personally scaled the peaks of the Tyrols, Alps, and Dolomites. For Evola the physical conquest of a mountain, with all the courage, self-transcendence and mental lucidity that it entails, becomes an inseparable and complementary part of spiritual awakening. It is no coincidence that many ancient cultures chose mountains as the abodes of their gods and considered the rigorous ascent of peaks as the task of heroes and initiates. In modern times, which tend to suffocate the heroic with naked self interest, the mountain still forms part of the profound dimension of spirit where the soul finds within itself more than what it thought itself to be. In Meditations on the Peaks, Evola combines recollections of his own experiences with reflections on other inspirational men and women who shared his view of the transcendent greatness of mountains.

Meditazione e Creatività: Sempre nuova
by Apo Halmyris Francesca DeganiLa meditazione e la concentrazione nelle loro forme classiche sono sempre strumenti preziosi per ampliare gli orizzonti della nostra creatività. In ogni contesto cultural e religioso, le tecniche sperimentate da secoli sono sempre attuali e nuove per noi. Questa seconda edizione sottolinea l'approccio pragmatico e offre una serie di tecniche preparatorie per un cammino attento e sicuro verso la meditazione. Per familiarizzarsi con alcuni modi per stimolare la creatività, occorrono tempo, perseveranza e attenzione. Apprendere i metodi di meditazione è impegnativo, ma è di per sé un premio. Oggi normalmente molti studenti esplorano vari tipi di corsi e di tecniche, e chiedono: perché devo fare così? Che cosa posso "ottenere" da questo? Come posso utilizzarlo? (tutte domande centrate sull'Io). Potremmo semplicemente sorridere e spiegare chiaramente alcune procedure per la concentrazione, efficaci anche per ampliare i limiti del pensiero e della creatività. E per i cercatori sul sentiero... possiamo invitarli a guardare la punta delle loro scarpe, perché il sentiero è proprio lì, sotto i loro piedi. Questo testo è un corso pratico graduale, o piuttosto un sentiero contemporaneo per proseguire la scoperta consapevole di se stessi? Le luci discrete delle lampade a olio disseminate dai maestri sono ancora visibili.

Meditazione: Una guida per la felicità e la pace interiore, per il sollievo dallo stress, per la consapevolezza.
by Adidas Wilson Maximus WilsonSecondo Aristotele, le persone possono scegliere di essere felici. Un nuovo studio mostra che è possibile far crescere fisicamente un cervello più felice usando pratiche come la meditazione. La scienza ha già determinato gli ormoni che danno origine a emozioni come desiderio o piacere, ma nessuno è stato in grado di dire con certezza da dove provengano i sentimenti di benessere e appagamento generale. Gli scienziati dell'Università di Kyoto hanno deciso di cercare la risposta. Hanno riunito 51 volontari e hanno chiesto a ciascuno di loro di valutare i propri livelli di felicità. Hanno quindi scansionato il cervello dei volontari per cercare di vedere se c'erano differenze tra gli individui pessimisti e quelli ottimisti. Sorprendentemente, le persone più felici avevano un precuneo più grande (un'area del cervello). Ciò significa che puoi far funzionare la felicità come un muscolo. Alcuni studi in passato hanno dimostrato che è possibile aumentare la materia grigia nei tuoi precunei con una meditazione regolare. Questo spiega perché i meditatori provano sentimenti di felicità e persino una contentezza generale. Lo scienziato che ha supervisionato questo studio ha affermato che i medici potrebbero ora misurare quali cose aumentano la felicità nelle persone.
