While conventional Western medicine tends to treat the body and mind as separate entities, scientific evidence proves that physical, spiritual, and psychological aspects of self can affect one another on a profound level.

After thirty years treating military and civilian patients with chronic and acute pain and associated disorders, Dr. Hickey has shared profound wisdom and insights of the “secrets” behind how to heal from intractable complex pain, which—although published in scientific journals and books—is not taught to most doctors nor found in standard wellness curriculums.

by Dada Bhagwanતમને ક્યારેય એવું અચરજ થયું છે કે શા માટે કેટલાક લોકો પાસે પૈસા છે અને કેટલાક પાસે નથી?, પૈસા અને આધ્યાત્મિકતા વચ્ચે શું સંબંધ છે? નીતિ એ જગતના વ્યવહારનું મુખ્ય તત્વ છે. તમારી પાસે બહુ પૈસા નથી, પરંતુ તમે નીતિવાન છો તો તમને મનમાં શાંતિ હશે અને તમારી પાસે બહુ પૈસો હોવા છતાં તમે અનીતિવાન છો તો તમે દુઃખી હશો. ‘ વેપારમાં ધર્મ હોવો જોઈએ પણ ધર્મમાં વેપાર ન હોવો જોઈએ’ એ વેપાર અને ધર્મ માં પાયાની નીતિ છે. પૂર્વેના કેટલાય ભવોના અનુભવોના ફળરૂપે થયેલા આત્મજ્ઞાનથી પરમ પૂજ્ય દાદાશ્રીને આ જગત માં થતા બધા પૈસાના વ્યવહારોનું પરમ જ્ઞાન હતું. પૈસો આવવો અને પૈસો જવો, નફો – ખોટ, માણસ મૃત્યુ પામે છે ત્યારે તે પોતાની સાથે શું લઇ જશે અને શું મૂકી જશે તેના ગુપ્ત સિદ્ધાંતો, અને પૈસાના નાનામાં નાના વ્યવહારને લગતા બધા સિદ્ધાંતોનું તેમને જ્ઞાન હતું. વાણીના માધ્યમથી બહાર પડેલા તેમના જીવનના અનુભવોનું આ પુસ્તકમાં સંકલન કરવામાં આવ્યું છે. અમારી હાર્દિક આશા છે કે વાચકને તેનું જીવન શુદ્ધિ અને પરમ શાંતિથી જીવવાના પ્રયત્નોમાં આ પુસ્તક મદદરૂપ થાય.

Palabras a mi mejor amiga: Notas a mí misma para encontrar el camino de regreso a casa
by Nekane GonzálezUn inspirador libro sobre lo importante de los mensajes que damos con nuestras palabras, especialmente las que usamos para hablarnos a nosotras mismas. Si las palabras crean realidades, construyamos una donde el mundo sea un lugar más amable. Sobre todo, el propio: nuestro mundo interior. Este libro es brújula para cuando te sientas perdida, subtítulo del corazón cuando las palabras se hacen un nudo, memoria para recordar lo importante, bálsamo en la herida, justicia contigo misma cuando eres tu peor enemiga y hogar cuando no sabes cómo regresar a ti. En definitiva, empatía y conexión de la mano de tu mejor amiga: tú. ¿Acaso existe un regalo más mágico? La terapeuta ocupacional, antropóloga y especialista en Inteligencia Emocional Nekane González nos propone en este inspirador libro un ejercicio de reflexión y de apoyo empezando por nosotras mismas. En sus páginas están plasmados muchos de los mensajes que todas en algún momento necesitamos, repletos de cariño, comprensión y abrazo. Coge el tuyo y vuela. «Este libro tiene distintas formas de leerse: puedes hacerlo en orden o abrirlo al azar por la página que quieras. Este libro es libre. Como tú. Eso sí, a cambio, cuando lo hagas, te pido que leas cada texto dos veces. Una de ellas pensando en esa amiga a quien le regalarías sus palabras, quizá porque esté pasando por un mal momento, tal vez porque quieres expresarle cuán especial es en tu vida o, sencillamente, porque te recuerda a ella. Luego léelo pensando en ti, porque está pensado como un remedio, un lugar que alivia, cura y abraza; y, sobre todo, que te ayuda a ser consciente de aquello que en ocasiones el dolor o las propias circunstancias son incapaces de hacerte ver: la valía que llevas dentro».
