Letters to Louise: The Answers Are Within You
by Louise HayUpdated Edition, with a Revised Cover! "This book is a collection of letters I’ve received and answered over the years from people all over the world. The letters express deep concerns about 20 different topics—including addictions, dis-ease, family relationships, the inner child, and parenting, just to name a few. Almost all of the people who have written to me have wanted to change themselves—and their world—in some way. In my replies, I’ve tried to be the catalyst that helps these individuals accomplish their goals. I think of myself as a stepping-stone on a pathway of self-discovery. Perhaps you will see some aspect of yourself in these pages. It is my belief that by reading about other people’s challenges and aspirations, we can see ourselves and our own problems in different ways. Sometimes we can use what we learn from others to make changes in our own lives. I hope this book will allow you to realize that you, too, have the strength within to change, and to find solutions on your own—that is, to seek the answers that are within you." — Louise L. Hay

Letting Go of Envy
by Patti NormileEnvy is one of the more unpleasant aspects of the human psyche, and if we’re honest, we are all colored by its sickly hue from time to time. We also know that emotional, physical, and spiritual illness can arise from unbridled envy—in ways both trivial and tragic. Left unchecked, envy can give rise to resentment and anger.

This Focus on Faith book aims to help you do both.
Letting Go of Nothing: Relax Your Mind and Discover the Wonder of Your True Nature (An Eckhart Tolle Edition)
by Peter RussellA practical and empowering approach to the age-old quest to let go of the thoughts and feelings that block happiness, impede change, and hinder self-acceptance Anyone who has dipped a toe into any of the world&’s spiritual traditions knows that letting go and letting be are key. But how? In this fresh, frank, and powerful guide, Peter Russell allows readers to see that the things we get hung up on are generally not tangible problems in the present, but are instead thoughts, feelings, interpretations, beliefs, or expectations we have about them. These are not actual things; they exist only in our minds. And we can strip these &“no-things&” of their power and let them go by making a simple change of mind. Russell boils this letting go down to remarkably easy methods of accepting, acknowledging, recognizing, and even befriending what we tend to run from. This paradoxical practice generates peace of mind, fresh perspectives, and wisdom in action. In turbulent times like ours, this is a true power, one available to us all.

Letting Magic In: A Memoir of Becoming
by Maia TollFrom Maia Toll, the best-selling author of the Wild Wisdom series and The Night School, comes the enchanted story of her own magical awakening, a journey from Brooklyn to Ireland that will inspire readers to uncover their own inner magic. "Toll focuses on her own winding path, one that will resonate with seekers." — People What is the word for craving a relationship with the earth, plants, rocks, and stars? What do you call someone who finds their spirit sparked by these relationships; whose concept of the sacred is altered by the scent of jasmine in bloom or the deep indigo of a sky awaiting nightfall? We&’re taught that doctors know our bodies and priests know our souls. But what if you&’re a person seeking to understand both for yourself without an intermediary? What is the word for these feelings and the person we become when we honor them? For writer Maia Toll, that word is magic. Magic points to something intrinsic to, and necessary for, the wholeness of the human spirit. It&’s a marker for the gnawing craving for a connection which includes, but also stretches beyond, the human realm. The exploration of this word was part of her search for both personal empowerment and a sense of cosmic connectedness, the yin and yang of our lives. In Letting Magic In Maia shares the story of her own magical becoming—from the untimely death of a friend that leads her to abandon Brooklyn in favor of the small town of Beacon, NY, to taking a yearlong sabbatical of exploration, and finally to Ireland, where she studied under an herbalist and learned the true magic of listening to the earth itself. This book is the story of one woman's becoming—the story of pushing past the boundaries of what once seemed possible to discover the extraordinary all around us. In it Maia shares how she learned to let magic in so she could live the life she longed for—one filled with curiosity, connection, and the deepest kind of inner knowing. In this soulfully written recollection—peppered throughout with magical learnings and rituals gathered along the way—Maia uncovers the things that change you in unexpected ways and guide you to become the person you never knew you wanted to be, but perhaps, always were. This she could call magic. And through Letting Magic In you will gain the courage and the wisdom to find your own.
Levantarse y luchar: Cómo superar la adversidad con la resiliencia
by Rafi SantosConoce las herramientas para aceptar y superar la incertidumbre y el miedo. Afrontamos un futuro cada vez con menos certezas, y nos encontramos ante situaciones que nos hacen sentir extremadamente vulnerables: inseguridad laboral, cambios tecnológicos, enfermedades... Y aquí, precisamente, entra en juego la resiliencia, la capacidad que todos tenemos o podemos desarrollar, para afrontar las dificultades de forma constructiva y, de este modo, lograr los recursos que nos permitan seguir luchando a pesar de haber pasado por una situación traumática. Para explicar en qué consiste la resiliencia y transmitir al lector las claves para su desarrollo, Rafaela Santos parte de testimonios de personas que superaron situaciones realmente dramáticas, que lucharon y vencieron; personas para las que enfrentarse a la adversidad fue un punto de partida. Los llamamos «héroes» y «heroínas» porque, pudiendo haber sucumbido, aprendieron a levantarse. Desarrollar esta cualidad y aprender a ganar impulso después de las caídas es necesario, quizá hoy más que nunca. Es importante saber que tenemos capacidades que muchas veces no desarrollamos hasta que las circunstancias nos obligan a ponernos al límite. Reseñas:«El hombre que no ha pasado por circunstancias adversas realmente no se conoce bien.»Viktor Frankl «De fondo subyace mi confianza en una gran maestra. Ella nos saca del tedio, del confort y de la rutina, nos espabila con sus preguntas y exigencias, y nos urge a responder con celeridad y firmeza. También nos protege de la vanidad y de la autocomplacencia, impidiendo que nos deslicemos por la fina y resbaladiza pendiente del aburguesamiento. Se llama adversidad, seguro que la conocen. Es una señorita que tarde o temprano, cuando menos la esperamos, nos cursa su visita. Este libro es de lectura obligada para repensar y vivir la resiliencia.»Santiago Álvarez de Mon, profesor de IESEBusiness School «Sabiendo que todo se puede superar con esperanza, voluntad y optimismo; y viendo la vida como lo que es: un regalo, creo que no hay nada que te propongas y no consigas. Ese instinto de supervivencia es el que nos hace ser resilientes. ¡No queda otra! En este libro encontrarás las claves para conseguirlo.»Irene Villa, psicóloga, periodista, campeona paralímpica de esquí alpino y víctima del terrorismo «Hasta en los peores momentos recuerda que más adelante hay más. Levantarse y luchar aporta las claves para descubrir que la resiliencia es una actitud ante las dificultades de la vida.»Ernesto Sáenz de Buruaga, periodista «La doctora Santos nos demuestra, con casos reales, que la resiliencia, como los grandes logros deportivos, es el resultado del esfuerzo, el espíritu de superación y la resistencia a la derrota.»Jorge Valdano, ex director general del Real Madrid, entrenador y deportista de élite

L'éveil spirituel: La chose la plus dingue
by Jed Mckenna Laura D.L’AUTEUR, ENSEIGNANT ET MAÎTRE SPIRITUEL Jed McKenna nous l’explique comme nul ne l’a fait avant lui. Un véritable original américain, Jed réussit là où d’innombrables autres ont échoué ; réduisant la réalisation la plus élevée – l’éveil spirituel – en ce qui ne pourrait être plus simple. Démystifiant le mystique avec brio, Jed ébahit le lecteur non en ajoutant à la sagesse spirituelle collective du monde, mais en retirant la spiritualité de l’éveil spirituel. Jamais ce sujet insaisissable n’a été traité de manière si captivante et accessible. Un chef d’œuvre d’écriture illuminative, L’éveil spirituel : La chose la plus dingue est une lecture obligatoire pour toute personne suivant une voie spirituelle. À la fois exposé et guide pratique, voici le premier livre à expliquer pourquoi l’échec semble être de mise dans la quête de l’éveil – et comment cette règle peut être transgressée. Selon les dires de Jed : La vérité est que l’éveil n’est ni lointain ni inaccessible. Il est plus proche que votre peau et plus immédiat que votre prochain souffle. Si nous nous demandons pourquoi si peu semblent capables de trouver ce qui ne peut jamais être perdu, souvenons-nous de l’enfant qui cherchait au soleil une pièce qu’il avait laissée tomber dans le noir car « la lumière est meilleure ici ». L’humanité a, de toute éternité, cherché à la lumière une pièce qui nous attend, non pas à la lumière ou dans l’obscurité, mais au-delà de tous les opposés. Et c’est le message de ce livre : l’Éveil Spirituel, purement et simplement.
L'éveil spirituellement incorrect
by Jed Mckenna Laura D.L’Éveil Spirituellement Incorrect n’est pas un genre d’éveil spirituel – c’est le seul genre. LA MARQUE D’UN VRAI MAÎTRE est de pouvoir exprimer un sujet extrêmement complexe avec une simplicité troublante. Jed McKenna est un tel maître, et l’éveil spirituel est son sujet. Son premier livre, L’éveil spirituel : La chose la plus dingue, est devenu un classique immédiat et l’a établi en tant qu’enseignant spirituel doté d’une profondeur et d’une clarté surprenantes. Son second livre, L’éveil spirituellement incorrect, nous emmène faire un tour fascinant dans l’état éveillé – ce qu’il est et ce qu’il n’est pas, qui y est et qui n’y est pas, comment l’atteindre et comment atteindre un meilleur état. Les surprises exquises abondent, y compris la révélation de ce qui est sans doute la plus grande œuvre spirituelle de tous les temps – cachée au vu et connue de tous. Whitman, Melville, Thoreau, Mark Twain et U.G. Krishnamurti y apparaissent, et une étudiante du premier livre revient partager les écrits de son autolyse spirituelle. Encore plus surprenants, les subtils efforts de l’auteur pour éloigner le lecteur de l’éveil et l’attirer vers un état plus désirable et plus accessible. Si tu ne me trouves pas du premier coup, garde courage, Si je t’échappe à un endroit, cherche ailleurs, Je suis arrêté quelque part et n’attends que toi. - Walt Whitman Les livres de Jed McKenna ne sont pas destinés à tous. Ils sont destinés à ceux qui sont fatigués du carrousel spirituel et prêts à confronter la réalité sans fard du processus d’éveil. Si vous chérissez vos enseignants, leurs atours et parures, Jed n’est peut-être pas ce qu’il vous faut, mais lorsque vous serez prêt à descendre du manège et à entreprendre le voyage, Jed McKenna est le mec que

Leviticus and Deuteronomy: Visions of the Promised Land (MacArthur Bible Studies)
by John F. MacArthurLEVITICUS & DEUTERONOMYSTEP INTO THE LIFE GOD HAS FOR YOUThe Israelites&’ exodus from Egypt marked the end of a period of oppression in their history. It also marked the beginning of God fulfilling His covenantal promise to a man named Abraham, that his descendants would not only reside in the Promised Land but would also multiply and become a great nation. So, at various times, God gave the Israelites a body of legislation—known as the law—to instruct them on how to live properly as the people of God. By this, they were to be distinct from all other nations on the earth.In the twelve studies within, John MacArthur explores these laws that God gave to His people as recorded in the books of Leviticus and Deuteronomy. As you work through this study, you will discover that obedience and the pursuit of personal holiness are always based on the character of God. Because of who He is, His people are to be holy.The MacArthur Bible Studies provide intriguing examinations of the whole of Scripture.
