Lessons from the Twelve Archangels: Divine Intervention in Daily Life
by Belinda J. Womack Catherine ShainbergA powerful guide to open your life to the wisdom and healing of the Angels and their love for us • Contains instructions from the 12 Archangels on how to transform our deepest fears and hurts from the past • Includes Angelic guided visualizations on working with Angels to access the healing power of the chakras and to manifest with the creative imagination • Contains 48 specific messages from the Angels, designed for quick access to practical guidance when needed in daily life Angels are loving forces in our lives. Each of us has the ability to communicate with them if we open our minds to their teachings. Belinda Womack was a believer in Angels until the age of 12, when she decided she wanted to become a scientist. Years later, working in a biology lab, she found herself in the presence of the Archangel Gabriel and realized her calling as a spiritual conduit for Angelic healing and support. In this book she shares lessons, practices, and daily guidance from the 12 Archangels to help us listen to and heal our wounded inner child, release our fears, and enact deep subconscious transformation. Each word, transmitted directly from the 12 Archangels, carries their love, so that when read, the love is absorbed into the reader’s mind and supports the release of our deepest wounds and fears. The tools and exercises shift your vibration so results are both felt and experienced immediately. Each message awakens your innate spiritual power to rebuild destroyed self-esteem, lifting you higher in vibration and allowing life to be filled with the power of your own divinity. The book includes Angelic guided visualizations on working with Angels to access the healing power of the chakras and to manifest with the creative imagination, as well as specific messages from the 12 Archangels designed for quick access to practical guidance when Angelic support is needed in daily life. As Belinda Womack shows, by opening ourselves to the support of the 12 Archangels, we can move out of the past and into Heaven’s abundance, heal our inner wounds, and shift our vibration to one of unconditional love for self, others, Mother Earth, and the Universe.

El libro de las emociones (Circulo Cuadrado Ser.)
by Laura EsquivelCinco ensayos profundamente personales en los que Laura Esquivel trata de comprender uno de los aspectos más trascendentales del ser humano: su dimensión emotiva.En este libro de ensayos, Laura Esquivel expresa la necesidad de reflexionar sobre las emociones, algo que parece estorbar en nuestra sociedad contemporánea: que rechaza los afectos, la individualidad y la espiritualidad. Frente a esto, la autora propone que lo que pensamos y lo que sentimos no son esferas contrarias, sino procesos paralelos en todo ser humano.Este libro explora las relaciones entre las emociones, la memoria, el recuerdo, la representación, las imágenes y las palabras. También se pregunta si existen emociones positivas y negativas, así como emociones que sanan y emociones que enferman.Por último, discurre acerca de dos expresiones artísticas, el cine y la literatura, y cómo es que las emociones juegan un papel importante generando una vibración benéfica o dañina en nosotros. Al final, la autora deja la puerta abierta a las interrogantes que conforman este libro, permitiendo así que el lector continúe con esta búsqueda.
El libro del ego: Liberarse de la ilusión (Fundamentos para una nueva humanidad #Volumen)
by OshoOsho nos muestra el camino para liberarnos de nuestro ego y llegar a ser nosotros mismos. Fundamentos para una nueva humanidad. El ego es justo lo contrario de nuestro verdadero ser. No es ese sustrato de nuestra existencia en el que nos reconocemos, sino una falsa identidad que adoptamos en nuestro proceso de socialización precisamente para que, reflexionando sobre lo accesorio, no nos planteemos preguntas sobre lo verdadero. El ego es un envoltorio de nuestra conciencia y, a menos que nos liberemos de él, jamás llegaremos a conocernos. Al ser un engaño, el ego rehúye lo sencillo, pues lo delata; lo difícil sí es un reto para él, y lo imposible un reto de verdad. Así pues, cuanto mayor sea el reto que aceptemos, mayor será el ego que estamos construyendo en nosotros mismos: es nuestra ambición la que dará la medida de nuestro ego, que es también la medida de nuestro fracaso.
The Life and Insights of Joseph Chilton Pearce: Astonishing Capacities and Self-Inflicted Limitations
by Michael MendizzaA comprehensive guide to social visionary Joseph Chilton Pearce&’s work on the transcendent and magical potential of the human mind • Explores Pearce&’s most influential books, including Magical Child, sharing his life-changing insights into why we have become what we are, contrasted with the miracle nature intends us to be • Features essential passages interwoven with Pearce&’s own commentary, drawn from personal conversations and unpublished material • Shows how Pearce&’s key insights build across his books and break down core assumptions about reality and human potential An expert in child development, Joseph Chilton Pearce (1926-2016) devoted his life to exploring the optimum development and astonishing capacities within each individual human being. Across his 12 visionary books and thousands of lectures, he blended cutting-edge science with spirituality and explored the amazing power of imagination for both children and adults--the space where we are able to play with our reality--inspiring millions to discover the human birthright of a more magical world. In this guide to Pearce&’s complete vision of transcendent human potential, Michael Mendizza explores 7 of his most influential books, sharing insights and expertise from Pearce&’s full range of interests, from child development and conscious parenting to psychic phenomena and altered states to the power of the mind to shape reality. Offering essential passages interwoven with Pearce&’s own commentary, drawn from personal conversations and unpublished material, this book shows how Pearce&’s key insights build across his books, breaking down core assumptions about reality and human potential. We see the importance of imagination and empathic, non-verbal forms of wisdom, which have been long overshadowed--to the peril of humanity--by verbal-intellectual skills with their abstract concepts and ideological perspectives. Presenting Pearce&’s vision of human potential from the 1950s until the end of his life, this book shares Pearce&’s life-changing insights into why we have become what we are, contrasted with the miracle nature intends us to be, allowing each of us to break through our self-inflicted limitations and realize our amazing and magical potential.

Lights Out: Sleep, Sugar, and Survival
by T. S. Wiley Bent FormbyWhen it comes to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and depression, everything you believe is a lie. With research gleaned from the National Institutes of Health, T. S. Wiley and Bent Formby deliver staggering findings: Americans really are sick from being tired. Diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and depression are rising in our population. We're literally dying for a good night's sleep. Our lifestyle wasn't always this way. It began with the invention of the lightbulb. When we don't get enough sleep in sync with seasonal light exposure, we fundamentally alter a balance of nature that has been programmed into our physiology since Day One. This delicate biological rhythm rules the hormones and neurotransmitters that determine appetite, fertility, and mental and physical health. When we rely on artificial light to extend our day until 11 PM, midnight, and beyond, we fool our bodies into living in a perpetual state of summer. Anticipating the scarce food supply and forced inactivity of winter, our bodies begin storing fat and slowing metabolism to sustain us through the months of hibernation and hunger that never arrive. Our own survival instinct, honed over millennia, is now killing us. Wiley and Formby also reveal: That studies from our own government research prove the role of sleeplessness in diabetes, heart disease, cancer, infertility, mental illness, and premature aging; Why the carbohydrate-rich diets recommended by many health professionals are not only ridiculously ineffective but deadly; Why the lifesaving information that can turn things around is one of the best-kept secrets of our day. Lights Out is one wake-up call none of us can afford to miss.
