A practical guide to synchronicity and being in tune with the universe. Philosophy and self-help blend seamlessly in Listen to the Universe to give the reader a well-rounded understanding of the concept of synchronicity alongside suggestions for how to incorporate the lessons into everyday life and make listening to the universe as natural as breathing. Arranged over the course of 24 hours, life coach Anne-Sophie Casper shares what she has learned by letting go of the illusion of control she felt she had over her life - an illusion that was ultimately making her miserable. Instead, she turned her energies to trusting in the power of "synchronicities" as supplied by the universe. Written in an engaging tone, the book introduces the concept of synchronicity, exploring the meaning of the word and its genesis, and providing examples of what a synchronicity may be. It then goes on to explore ways that listening to and noticing the messages from the universe - the synchronicities we experience everyday - can ultimately lead us to greater contentment and connection. Guiding the reader through the course of a day, Listen to the Universe unpacks the moments where our senses are most in tune with the wider world, and shows the reader how to embrace and encourage this connection - as well as how to incorporate the lessons this heightened awareness can teach us. Throughout the book are moments for the reader to pause and engage with questionnaires and quizzes to help unpack the lessons and concepts outlined. Rooted firmly in the personal experience of the universe, it is the ultimate practical toolkit and guide for personal self-development and how to live a better life.

Losing weight is one of the hardest things to do for many people. After spending my life with years of defeat, I grew tired of losing at life, being overweight, hating my life as it was, forgetting all the things I should have been thankful for When you are caught up in a dark place, you tend to forget what you have that is good. Everything seems bad I was losing the battle, having diabetes to the extreme, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, a low thyroid-these did not help. I was well over 100 pound overweight. I knew deep within my heart there had to be a solution, an answer to my problem. I needed for someone to rescue me Not realizing I had the answer and the power inside of me. I established a relationship with Jesus Through my search, Jesus changed my thinking, making me understand that to have victory is to change my lifestyle. I had to renew my mind, change the way I looked at food and life. I chose life With help from Jesus, I researched with the direction of the Holy Spirit, finding my way to true success Stop living to eat Start eating to live

I know that change is difficult but it is possible. I keep thinking that I will do something tomorrow and then tomorrow comes and I can't remember what it was I said that I was going to do, so I end up doing something else. For example, this collection of thoughts is years in the making. There were days that I was just too afraid to write about what I was dealing with, so I would put it off for another day. Then at the end of the day I realize what I was supposed to be doing. So then one day becomes two just like that. It is similar to standing on the sideline waiting for your turn at jump rope. I would make all the movements to jump in but kept waiting for the best time to jump in. Does anyone else know what that feels like?

What I have learned about death is that every experience brought with it a new set of emotions in a different way. Sometimes it brought loneliness, other times it brought joy. Sometimes it brought sadness, other times it brought peace. Sometimes nothing came and that is when I hear the voice. The voice reminded me that for everything there is a season. A time to be born and a time to die. It is in this time of nothingness that I am finally able to accept the passing and have the ceremonial burial in my spirit.

New Englanders are always cursing. But a colorful profanity uttered by some stero-typically taciturn old Yankee is usually more humorous than menacing. Yet, true maledictions (the opposite of benedictions) have frequently been spoken on New England soil, curses intended to invoke evil, injury, or total destruction against other people. Stories about preternatural revenge are numerous in Yankee lore, with each New England state providing its favorites. You'll read about curses that were followed by the strange disappearance of a father and daughter in Rhode Island, mysterious afflictions in Massachusetts, a river of death in Maine, an unaccountable blight in New Hampshire, unexplained madness in Connecticut, and other eerie happenings from New England's colorful history. Some are well known, at least regionally. Others are nearly forgotten. Within these pages, storyteller Joseph A. Citro vividly brings these tales to life, letting us decide if these tales of woe were bad luck or . . . something else.

You can find your balance and the keys to success and enlightenment by implementing a plan of mind, body and spirit. Through the mastery of virtues we are ultimately able to master ourselves. This book provides a powerful framework that will liberate you to all the possibilities and magic in the world. "Dead Presidents," is ghetto-parlance for money. Benjamin Franklin is the only non-president to grace American paper currency. His face, on the highly prized $100, spawned the phrase, "All about the Benjamin's." As one of the first millionaires in American history, he felt establishing a virtuous life was the key to great success. He also knew that money was a tool; a sharp one. This is a guide to take hold of those virtues and shape the course of your life. Franklin, in his great genius, focused on 13 virtues. He would work each of those virtues for seven days. He would go through the cycle four times a year, starting anew every 13 weeks. The coded-cycles help make our dreams come true. Benjamin Franklin's contributions continue to have a huge impact on our world. It is time to return back to wholeness, prosperity and goodness. It is our duty. When we start to focus on living more virtuous lifestyles, the hope for our lives and humanity grows greatly. When we chart our course, we move with power and love. Capt. Brad Borden, USA (Ret.)

Rewiring the Brain is not just another book on stress. It explores a daring and innovative path to accessing the power of consciousness as a more effective and lasting solution to tackle stress and emotional afflictions. The present remedies, such as drills of positive thinking and self-hypnosis through beliefs, accrue only temporary solace and euphoria that wear off sooner than expected. Also our reasoning power is not able to rein in the unyielding force of negative emotions that fuel stress and depression. Hence, this book pursues a new approach. It outlines also certain ways that slow down aging process and enhance memory, attention span, and emotional equilibrium. The book is a fascinating journey to the inner world of self-its constructs of emotions, thoughts, and memories-to discover why one behaves the way one does. We go through myriads of joys and sorrows in the long course of life, but hardly have the patience to pause and ponder over the reasons that make them. Does it matter? Yes, much more than perhaps one realizes. Stress should not be seen as an isolated issue. It betrays the quality of individual self in its ceaseless action of living. We have one and only life-the most precious thing we happen to possess, and it is but natural that we struggle hard to do our utmost to make it a wonderful experience. Stress, in its overt or covert forms, works as a persistent factor that undermines the spontaneity, joy, and beauty of life. In this competitive and complex world, one faces countless factors of stress that are unavoidable and immutable, including illness, accident, or death. There are some other factors that can be altered through efforts, which play a more decisive role in life. These are individual attitude, mental tendencies, and ways one interacts with external world. There is much truth in the saying "Life is 10 percent what happens to you and 90 percent how you react to it." An objective understanding of these individual factors means that half the battle of tackling stress is won. Hence, the book seeks to help the reader face and understand the workings of inner self and its intricacies without resorting to psychological escape or suppression. Yet an objective understanding is only the first step. It does not resolutely change our mental habits and conditionings that are hardwired in the brain. This suggests the need to go beyond the remedies prevalent now and look for fundamentally new solutions. In such effort, this book explores the possibility of using the power of consciousness to rewire the brain and tackle stress. The book has a refreshingly open-minded approach, devoid of religious ideologies or mystical beliefs, and does not involve psychological escapes. The practical methods and benefits are outlined in a scientific spirit and correlated with research by neuroscientists, psychologists, and medical institutes. The book does not offer shortcuts or peripheral solutions, because none exists. Neither does it offer self-hypnosis and gratifying beliefs that are concealed in prescriptive actions and mental drills.

It’s like meditation with a pen—with the colors set down you begin to make lines, lines that calm you, lines that inspire you, lines that absorb you, until the world, and your thoughts, fall away and all that’s left is a perfect flow of attention and concentration. It hardly matters what you make. It’s the act of making that liberates you from distraction and busyness. Each of the first two Reverse Coloring books—with over 205,000 copies in print in just a year—frees the imagination and encourages the user to be calm and creative. But Mindful Journeys takes it one step further with 50 new and original watercolors created specifically to promote mindfulness. Abstract compositions in calming blues and greens. A shower of circles that suggests the infinity of the sky. Swirls of flowery patterns that evoke mandalas. Spiritual symbols, like a yin-yang, a hamsa hand, a flaming heart. Watery waves, and a curling peacock feather. The possibilities are endless. Trace, sketch, doodle, shade, cover with dots or make a world of images. And lose yourself in time and space. Images in the book are printed on sturdy paper that’s single-sided and perforated. All you need is your favorite pen.
