The ancient wisdom of Hawai'i has been guarded for centuries -- handed down through lines of kinship to form the tradition of Huna. Dating back to the time before the first missionary presence arrived in the islands, the tradition of Huna is more than just a philosophy of living -- it is intertwined and deeply connected with every aspect of Hawaiian life.

Blending ancient Hawaiian wisdom with modern practicality, Serge Kahili King imparts the philosophy behind the beliefs, history, and foundation of Huna. More important, King shows readers how to use Huna philosophy to attain both material and spiritual goals. To those who practice Huna, there is a deep understanding about the true nature of life -- and the real meaning of personal power, intention, and belief. Through exploring the seven core principles around which the practice revolves, King passes onto readers a timeless and powerful wisdom.

This book is a must for anyone who has had a fear of death, has a wounded heart, or has a loved one going through a terminal illness. After all of the wonderful near-death experiences that I have heard, here is a story of an extraordinary free choice experience of stepping into the Light Source. This factual story of one woman who worked hard to find the Creator within herself and who not only found the Creator but found an expanded world that would allow her to continue life in wonderment and awe without the gripping fear of the death process. Starting in the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area, this story weaves its magic up through the vineyards of Sonoma County and Mendocino, and into the fir and redwood forested mountains of northern Mendocino County. This simple story tells how Lil decided to include her closest and dearest friends in her death experience. Her understanding of the "other dimension" prompted her to include those nearest and dearest to her, so that they could experience the magical walking into the Light that she was experiencing. This generous act would open the door for another woman to have a personal inner experience of embracing the Light. As you walk with the author, you see her search for the meaning of life and spirituality. Her personal study of religions and books on inner growth, her observations of life led by her devotion to the spirit within, and her subsequent meeting with Lil, who in turn, would make a personal introduction to the Light Source. This introduction would change the author's inner life. Once knowing that the Creator was a living part of her, she began to see how much of her life had led her to this one point. She began to put together the pieces of a fragmented life, which instantly came together with the help of the Spiritual Source. She discovered her real purpose in life and what she was here to do. With this knowledge also came the understanding that death, as we here on earth see it, does not exist. As the author walked through the first two doors of death with her friend, she would see the Creator as she had seen it in meditation, as a beautiful loving Light Source. This would lead her to see events in her life, which had been assisted by the Light and how a part of her was still connected to this Light Source and responded accordingly when she experienced it. Although not an experienced writer, Ms. Handley has woven a message of faith and inspiration from her experience for all to share. Her message comes directly from her heart and attempts to share at that basic level.

While metaphysical practices and techniques are accepted as part of everyday life by many, such ideas are still suppressed, ridiculed and misrepresented by the general media as esoteric flim-flam. But, like it or not, we are besieged by such way-out (and to some, downright spooky-sounding) topics as celestial prophecies, near- and after-death experiences, encounters with angels and extraterrestrials, UFO abductions, and much more. These phenomena are exploited in literature, TV, film and plays, and are sensationalized by the news media. The popularity ofthese subjects proves that both believers and disbelievers continue to be curious. Finally, a book which provides inspiration and insight for both the dedicated New Age seeker, and for the average person who may be bewildered by New Age lingo and puzzled by its ideas.

Karmic Facts & Fallacies demystifies such topics as karma, reincarnation, faith-healing, Yoga, and meditation, and motivatesthe seeker, the skeptic and the stoic alike to integrate esoteric practices into their lives.

A wife and mother of a grown son and two teen daughters, a woman enjoying her career and life, Mary Jo Doig wants nothing more from life than to live out her days embraced by the deep roots of family, friends, and her community. Tightly wrapped in a life-long protective cocoon, she has no idea how wounded she is—until, on one starless night following the death of a relative, she has a flashback that opens a dark passageway back to her childhood and the horrific secrets buried deep inside her psyche. Part mystery and part inspirational memoir, Patchwork is the riveting story of one woman who strived to live a life full of love, only to endure tragedies with two of her children and struggles in her marriages—the consequences of a mysterious life-long behavior unnoticed by her family or teachers. Like a needle stitching together a quilt, the memories Mary Jo recovers following her first flashback show her why her early years were threaded with a need to be invisible, as well as core beliefs that she was stupid, not good enough, and vastly different from her peers. Shattered by these revelations, overcome by depression, hopelessness, and a loss of trust in others, Mary Jo embarks on a healing journey through the underground of her life that ultimately leads to transformation.

'Resistance is one of the main causes of emotion. The moment we believe something isn't the way it should be or someone doesn't meet our expectations we struggle to accept the situation because it is out of our control. We get stressed when we can't control a person or a situation. We get frustrated because we "judge" the situation as "bad, unwanted or wrong". To combat this, we need to learn not to "feed" negative thoughts. We can do this by accepting rather than fighting a thought or emotion - accept it and then move forward. Being more aware of your thoughts on a conscious level will give you more control of your emotions by consciously changing them and not letting them spiral out of control.' Beyond the Mind explores meditation and mindfulness as therapy for tragedy and recurring negative thought. The book takes you through the stages of mindfulness therapy and explains the practical uses for everyday life and the theory of meditation as well as the stages of how to achieve it and practice it regularly. There is also discussion of the law of attraction and how using this can ultimately create positive thoughts and a more positive wellbeing. While the focus is quite general, there is also specific mention to the effects caused by the isolation of lockdown and how to use meditation and mindfulness to develop more positive thoughts.

Drawing upon the ideas of more than three hundred notable painters, scientists, mathematicians, entrepreneurs, writers, poets, naturalists, actors, rock climbers and more, this book explains putting spirituality into one's life by creating great goodness for the world

The book presents thoughts about the work and results of the Spiral Phase Space Structure. It is based on direct experience of the fusion of the Spirit with light through the basic elements that create life, universe and its Universal Law, etc. The words create images about what it is like to experience the process of becoming light, color geometry, velocities, time space through air, earth, fire, water etc. These thoughts give an "a priori" knowledge about such experiences to come, when one will enter into the next dimension(s). The language in use is simple and direct in describing the experience of the different environments of the cosmos along with its Universal Law. It also describes about some of the author's ordinary living experiences. His opinions or criticisms are direct, humorous and serious.
The book is mainly concerned with the literal expression of the author, a creativity executed in the 1970's with the exception of the thought: "The Golden Artist," written in 2002. A sample of his visual work is seen on the front and back cover of the book. Its front shows a picture of the work entitled "Terra II," created in oils on a 4 feet x 4 feet canvas in 1977. And on the back of the cover a cube made out of six 4 feet x 4 feet acrylic paintings that display images of the geometry about the Spiral Phase Space Structure.
The work of the book is original, created in a free style and independent of any type of schools. It has an index in alphabetical order of the 60 individual thoughts layout in 137 pages, an introduction and a note about the author.

Does love ever die? Or does it live on through the ages?

After years of being in recovery and twelve-step programs and seeing his friends dying, not so much from their primary addiction but rather from their crossover afflictions, Scott Morofsky came to recognize that the crossover afflictions plaguing humans were not being addressed. Drawing upon key elements from his own personal struggles and the struggles of his clients, through an adaptation of the traditional twelve-step recovery program, he created Wellativity and its 12 Principles, which target crossover afflictions such as obesity, smoking, lethargy, denial, procrastination, extremes in exercise, eating disorders, and any behavior that inhibits wellness. Scott Morofsky's book introduces us to the concept of Wellativity, whose core focus is communication, optimal well-being and body, mind and spirit fitness. He expertly guides us in the practice of the 12 Principles and shows that through continual communication with one's Higher Power, professional therapist, doctor, and/or any trusted and caring individual, we will become "In-Powered" and transformed to a healthier state of being. Included is an unprecedented, proven effective, breathing-conditioning program that incorporates key elements of the 12 Principles into daily readings defined as Wellativity's Daily Breath.
