from childhood incest. Her journal entries take you from the first
inklings that a part of her life was missing to finding hope and

growth that human beings encounter on the way to wholeness. Dusana
lives her life by taking the lessons presented in life and
integrates them into a new way of seeing herself and the world.

Geared toward those who need help or healing, The Song of Life
provides twenty-seven lessons to propel you on the path to
understanding what is really in your heart and mind. Author George

universal consciousness with our own individual consciousness.

bitter, affirming the positive, understanding your mental and
physical universe, and realizing the importance of meditation in
this mix. The Song of Life seeks to help you heal, to show you your
place in the universe, and to create a better universe for all.
Beyond the Iceberg: A Case for Emotional Healing presents a
step-by-step investigation into human nature, considering why so
many people get angry, producing an intense response without any
good reason. Through her experience and professional studies,
author Dr. Christine Onu offers antidotes to those hidden reasons
causing people appear to be sick when there is no actual sickness.
There are many problems plaguing society today for which the root
causes are not self-evident. We are naturally inclined to think and
care for ourselves and our own safety more than we think or care
for others. But nobody is an island; we need each other for life to
be more meaningful. While there is absolute need for each of us to
take proper care of ourselves, we should also be interested in the
needs and progress of others. Beyond the Iceberg explores the value
of psychology as a necessary tool to deal with and understand human
behaviors and the problems that arise in interpersonal
relationships, so that we are better able to resolve conflicts when
they arise. Each of us creates our own life story and reality-who
we are as human beings. Beyond the Iceberg considers the hidden
emotions that create problems in our relationships, at work, and at
home, while examining the causes for our psychological challenges
and possible solutions.
An in-depth examination of religious practices around the world and
the fascinating science behind how they make us healthier. Many
religious and spiritual beliefs promote wellness through their
practices or stated objectives—for example, focusing on simple
living, having compassion for others, vegetarianism, or meditation
and mindfulness. This refreshing work provides a review of the
world's spiritual perspectives and traditions, and explores how
their guiding principles encourage healthy lifestyle choices. An
examination of religious and nonreligious perspectives from around
the world—from atheism, Confucianism, and Christianity to Islam,
Judaism, Shamanism, and Zoroastrianism—reveals how faith beliefs
and values influence behavior and inspire healthy living. With
contributions from leading international scholars, the chapters
include a discussion of Eastern and Western world religions and
their practices—such as fasting or the avoidance of alcohol and
tobacco—and how they may foster healthfulness. A contemporary
analysis of current research findings suggests possible
interventions that individuals and health providers may utilize to
enhance healthfulness. A final chapter explores the connection
between health, illness, and religious and nonreligious
perspectives.
