unemptied nests * moving back home after broken marriages * turning
your home into a "daycare center" for your grandchildren *
substance abuse, cult involvement, trouble with the law *

THE CLASSIC BESTSELLER ON A TRUE CASE OF PAST-LIFE TRAUMA AND
PAST-LIFE THERAPY FROM AUTHOR AND PSYCHOTHERAPIST DR BRIAN WEISS
Psychiatrist Dr Brian Weiss had been working with Catherine, a
young patient, for eighteen months. Catherine was suffering from
recurring nightmares and chronic anxiety attacks. When his
traditional methods of therapy failed, Dr Weiss turned to hypnosis
and was astonished and sceptical when Catherine began recalling
past-life traumas which seemed to hold the key to her problems. Dr
Weiss's scepticism was eroded when Catherine began to channel
messages from 'the space between lives', which contained remarkable
revelations about his own life. Acting as a channel for information
from highly evolved spirit entities called the Masters, Catherine
revealed many secrets of life and death. This fascinating case
dramatically altered the lives of Catherine and Dr Weiss, and
provides important information on the mysteries of the mind, the
continuation of life after death and the influence of our past-life
experiences on our present behaviour.

Research indicates about 35 of every 100 people develop a fear of
flying at some point in their life. Almost everyone knows someone
who has it. If you've ever mentioned to others that you aren't
comfortable with air travel, you've probably already discovered
just how common is the fear of flying. Fear of flying is a
condition that merits proper attention, and which we are
increasingly in a better position to deal with, particularly thanks
to clinical research. We now know that fear of flying is similar to
other phobias, and that it cannot be dismissed simply as fear of
the unknown, and that telling someone to "pull yourself together"
just isn't likely to be an effective way to deal with the problem.
Gaining your freedom to expand your enjoyment of life is the
purpose of this book. The book covers a number of areas, including
valuable information about flying and everything to do with flying
safety. It also covers the nature of anxiety, frequently asked
questions, and of course the self-help strategies that you can
employ. In addition, it deals with professional therapeutic help,
and what you can expect of such treatment. By reading this book you
will be less anxious about stepping into an aircraft and that you
will experience the flight in a positive way, as an enjoyable and
interesting event, which takes you to where you want to be in your
life. In their clinical practice, we have seen thousands of people
who have successfully overcome their fear, and it is likely that
you can do so too!

victims of domestic violence and for all who want to help, this
