Are we thinking too much and living too little? Why are we missing
out on so much of our life? Dianetics has some answers you may have
been looking for. Many of us are aware that the worries, doubts and
reservations in our own mind are more often than not the greatest
obstacles to the fulfilling life we so much desire. It seems that
our thoughts are not truly free - with many of them stemming from
an emotional and subconscious level that can fix our attention and
pull us down. What if you could free your thoughts and shed their
weight and pain from your own mind? This is what Dianetics is
about. What triggers our thinking? What is the mind really? What is
the source of stress? Dianetics is the breakthrough that has
enabled us to understand for the first time how our thinking works
- consciously and subconsciously. Dianetics includes a practical
approach that makes it possible to remove these stumbling blocks
and actually experience a resurgence of life energy and positivity
that makes a noticeable difference in a person's happiness and
success. Reading the book alone and understanding the simple logic
behind the seemingly complex structure of the mind gives a
completely new perspective in life. Based on observation and
discoveries, Dianetics goes beyond theory and describes an
easy-to-use method to free your mind from this burden. The
application is what produces a real change, and what sets this book
apart from others. The practical success made Dianetics an
international bestseller, with 22 Million copies sold and
translated into 53 languages.

you imagined? Whether it's too little money, a struggling

our minds, bodies, and spirits to swirl with discontent and
negativity. But when our focus and attention is sunk in darkness,

or achieve, instead of despairing over what you are missing, you

own life and practice for years. In Manifesting, she guides readers

In Celtic Spirituality, acclaimed translator and scholar Philip
Freeman allows the voices of the Celts to speak once more. Though
the Celtic civilization has long disappeared, lingering traces of
their spirituality haunt Ireland and the surrounding land.
Tantalizing snippets of faded manuscript pages, ancient stone
carvings, and spells from the mystery-shrouded Druids have sparked
the imagination of generations of modern seekers. Translated from
their original languages--Gaulish, Latin, Irish, and Welsh--the
passages and stories in Celtic Spirituality are true artifacts of
the Celts' vibrant and varied religion from both the pre-Christian
and early Christian period. From a ritual of magical inspiration to
stories of the ancient gods and adventures of long-forgotten
heroes, Freeman has unearthed a stunning collection of Celtic work.
The translation is accessible to the modern reader, but maintains
the beauty and vibrancy of the original. Celtic Spirituality
includes material that has never been translated before, offering a
new glimpse into the wisdom and wild magic of the Celts.
