Many claim that meditation is effective in the treatment of many ailments associated with stress and high blood pressure, and in the management of pain. While there are many popular books on meditation, few embrace the science as well as the art of meditation. In this volume, Shapiro and Walsh fill this need by assembling a complete collection of scholarly articles--Meditation: Classic and Contemporary Perspectives. From an academic rather than a popular vantage, the volume takes the claims and counterclaims about meditation to a deeper analytical level by including studies from clinical psychology and psychiatry, neuroscience, psychophysiology, and biochemistry. Each selection is a contribution to the field, either as a classic of research, or by being methodologically elegant, heuristically interesting, or creative. Original articles cover such topics as the effects of meditation in the treatment of stress, hypertension, and addictions; the comparison of meditation with other self-regulation strategies; the adverse effects of meditation; and meditation-induced altered states of consciousness. Concluding with a major bibliography of related works, Meditation offers the reader a valuable overview of the state and possible future directions of meditation research. Today, in the popular media and elsewhere, debate continues: Is meditation an effective technique for spiritual and physical healing, or is it quackery? Meditation: Classic and Contemporary Perspectives weighs in on this debate by presenting what continues to be the most complete collection of scholarly articles ever amassed on the subject of meditation.

It's time to thrive! The Divine Feminine has been suppressed in the Western world for centuries. As a result of our disregard for her and Mother Earth, we now live in a time of impending global catastrophe. Business-as-usual is no longer an option. How can we respond to this situation? How can women reclaim the breadth and depth of our worth? How can we reclaim our unique way of being, experiencing, feeling and acting in the world, when until recently we’ve been restricted and constrained? In her book, Iris examines the archetypes that can guide us through difficult situations and circumstances back to our own magnificent selves and to the Divine Feminine. Each unique archetype has qualities to inspire you to approach old, gnarly problems and situations in new ways. Each archetype guides and empowers you to explore the different sides of your Self. Each one allows you to realise your strengths, talents and skills and what gives your life meaning, passion and purpose. Realise how to live the most fulfilling life imaginable. Offer up your unique gifts to the world, ones you may not realise you have! YOU matter! By living your life to its fullest potential, you can join the communal effort to better the world with ease and grace. “If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.” Dalai Lama

Traditional understandings of God as deliverer depict God as a mighty liberator-warrior and wrathful avenger. Juliana Claassens explores alternative Old Testament metaphors that portray God as mourner, mother, and midwife--images that resist the violence and bloodshed associated with the dominant warrior imagery. Claassens discusses how metaphors of God as life giver began to develop in the aftermath of the trauma of Israelite exile. She offers compelling examples of how this feminine imagery still has the power to inspire hope amidst violence in today's world. She demonstrates that God's delivering presence helps people of faith cope with trauma and suffering on many levels--individual, community, national, and global--while bringing forth new life out of death and destruction.
