Meredith L. Young-Sowers has created a definitive book for women on mind/body/spirit healing that puts women’s connection to Spirit at the very center — exactly where it should be. Drawing on her twenty-seven years as an intuitive healer and spiritual teacher, and her belief that healing is something we do every day, Meredith gently guides women to create our own loving and workable healing plan. Emphasizing heart disease and reproductive cancers — the diseases that are claiming our mothers, sisters, and friends — Meredith offers a mix of attitude shifts, exercises, and simple meditations to help us harness the power of Spirit. Meredith teaches us to understand and rely on our deep-hearted intuition as our most important healing partner. In this wide-ranging exploration of healing, you’ll learn to: nourish yourself on all levels — emotional, intellectual, social, physical, and spiritual; respond effectively to stress in a way that heals your heart; understand why mind-body imbalances can sometimes manifest as disease; claim strength and renewal at each stage of your journey.

As we evolve, so do our prayers; as our prayers evolve, so do we. This is the evolution of illumination, the collective voice of the soul of the world. How Do You Pray? was born from a vision in which Celeste Yacoboni was told to ask the world, "How Do You Pray?" She reached out to leading spiritual, shamanic, scientific teachers, guides, and activists and asked for their response. Culled from those responses is an original and deeply personal collection of essays. Talking intimately and candidly about how they pray, these personalities encourage the reader to contemplate the intention of prayer in their own life. This collection speaks to the reader's heart and asks What is your soul's expression? How do you dance in ecstasy, bare your soul to the divine? Bow in gratitude? Merge with nature? Cry out for guidance? How do you pray? This groundbreaking and moving book gathers responses from leaders of diverse spiritual and religious traditions ranging from Buddhism to Islam to Christianity, as well as those who do not claim one or any particular walk of faith. Contributors include Brother David Steindl-Rast, Matthew Fox, James O'Dea, Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee, Tessa Bielecki, Lama Surya Das, Hank Wesselman, Father Bede Griffiths, Byron Katie, Joan Halifax, Normandi Ellis, Andrew Harvey, Dan Millman, Kristena Prater, Nicki Scully, Mirabai Starr, and more. This book is a beautiful gift package with matte laminate cover and red ribbon.

No matter where you are in your own spiritual work, Where Two Worlds Touch can show you how to harness the power of an experience we all share and often fear: change. Whether you are facing the challenge of living in an increasingly complex world, or more personal upheavals of a relationship ending, a death, or an illness, you can learn to consciously use change as a spiritual rite of passage. As you begin to see changes in your life as precisely personal assignments for growth and not as random fate or bad karma, you will learn to embrace change willingly as part of your spiritual homework. Each new change will become an initiation, a passage that marks both a birth and a death, a giving up in order to gain. Illustrated with wonderful allegorical tales from all the major spiritual traditions, compelling life stories and transformative exercises, Where Two Worlds Touch introduces you to the Seven Principles of Conscious Change and shows you that the mundane details of everyday life offer rich fuel for personal evolution. Acclaimed spiritual teacher Gloria Karpinski opens up a new world wherepain offers as much opportunity for growth as pleasure, where inner awareness is brought into outer expression, and where body, mind, and spirit can at last become one.

This modern guidebook to spiritual growth starts with the awakening of self-awareness; awareness of our bodies, our feelings, our thoughts and the energy that flows through every cell of our being. It leads us to the inner states of freedom and peace,seen not as the absence of conflict, but rather a response based on a deeply rooted knowledge that no matter what is happening around you, nothing can harm you at your center. Seale works with the tool of meditation and shows how we can open to the language of love and Spirit. Includes 45 exercises and meditations which speak to us in profoundly different ways at each stage of spiritual growth and can therefore be of great value both now and as our practice deepens.
