Everyday Grace
by Marianne WilliamsonDescription: In this comforting,inspirational companion to the No. 1 New York Times bestseller, A Return to Love, Marianne Williamson returns to her spiritual roots, writing on the art of nurturing a thriving soul in a harsh world. What do your spiritual convictions have to do with traffic jams, job anxiety, reading the newspaper, or arguing with your spouse? Everything, according to Marianne Williamson. It is the way we live in our everyday world that determines the shape of who we are. So Buddhist or Muslim, Christian or Jew, it is the moment when your child fails an exam, when your best friend lands your dream job, or your business instinct tells you to watch your back, that tests and builds our living faith. With an attitude of hope, a call to forgive, a celebration of miracles, and the promise of strength and grace, Williamson helps us find our sacred footing on ordinary ground. No matter where we are or what we're doing, no matter what difficulties we face, there is always an opportunity to be happy, to connect with the spiritual - and to open our hearts and our minds. In the book of hours, Marianne Williamson teaches us to ride the currents of life and to seek out the sacred that will bring forth a sea change of the soul.

Everyday Intuition: What Psychology, Science, and Psychics Can Teach Us About Finding and Trusting Our Inner Voice
by Elizabeth GreenwoodA captivating and insightful deep dive into the world of human intuition, exploring the power of this elusive phenomenon and how it can be harnessed to better know and trust ourselves. We rely on our intuition, even though we don’t fully understand what it is, how it works, or if we can even trust it. In this fresh, mind-opening book, Elizabeth Greenwood takes us on a sweeping investigation into the subject, exploring how, in our data-driven world, we can harness intuition in our day-to-day lives.Digging deep into her personal experience as well as insights from neuroscience, psychology, , feminist texts, psychics, and everyday people with extraordinary intuitive ability, Greenwood explores what we know about intuition—how to distinguish it from instinct, wishful thinking, anxiety, and denial; how it serves and sometimes fails us; how it impacts our dreams and unconscious behavior; and how it manifests in everything from romantic attraction to premonitions. Greenwood places a special emphasis on “women’s intuition,” and how it has been denigrated throughout history—but can offer us a more hopeful, grounded way of experiencing the world in a time of so much uncertainty.Everyday Intuition provides practical advice on tapping into our self-knowledge and learning to trust our instincts. It examines the science behind intuition, including how our brains process information, how psychedelic medicine and manifestation are opening new doors of consciousness—as well as how these helpful methods are being abused by charlatans, including some "coaches," "teachers," and social media influencers offering false promises—and how we can train ourselves to be more intuitive and ultimately enhance our daily lives.Smart, funny, sincere, and profound, this helpful guide is a modern take on one of the oldest tools we possess. It shows us how embracing intuition can lead us to our truest, most mindful selves, and to better align the lives we are living with the lives we desire.

Everyday Magicians: Legal Records and Magic Manuscripts from Tudor England (Magic in History Sourcebooks)
by Sharon Hubbs Wright Frank KlaassenMost of the women and men who practiced magic in Tudor England were not hanged or burned as witches, despite being active members of their communities. These everyday magicians responded to common human problems such as the vagaries of money, love, property, and influence, and they were essential to the smooth functioning of English society. This illuminating book tells their stories through the legal texts in which they are named and the magic books that record their practices.In legal terms, their magic fell into the category of sin or petty crime, the sort that appeared in the lower courts and most often in church courts. Despite their relatively lowly status, scripts for the sorts of magic they practiced were recorded in contemporary manuscripts. Juxtaposing and contextualizing the legal and magic manuscript records creates an unusually rich field to explore the social aspects of magic practice. Expertly constructed for both classroom use and independent study, this book presents in modern English the legal documents and magic texts relevant to ordinary forms of magic practiced in Tudor England. These are accompanied by scholarly introductions with original perspectives on the subjects. Topics covered include: the London cunning man Robert Allen; magic to identify thieves; love magic; magic for hunting, fishing and gambling, and magic for healing and protection.
