This radical new book from Wayne Dyer proposes that we hold the keys to solving any problems we face within us. He sets out basic principles and foundations we can understand and practice in order to access spiritual solutions to any problems we are experiencing. The book is in two sections. The first sets out the theory, the second enables you to put the wisdom into practice. Part 1. The theory: Everything in the Universe is nothing more than energy. Light and though, spiritual energy, vibrates very quickly. Physical energy, and problem areas, vibrate more slowly. When the highest/fastest frequencies of spirit are brought to the presence of lower/slower frequencies, they nullify and dissipate those things we call problems. We all have the ability to increase our energy and access the highest/fastest energies to eradicate problems in our lives. In carefully structured chapters, Wayne Dyer draws on both ancient wisdom and firsthand accounts, and shows how to: • stop giving energy to things you don't believe in • keep your energy field uncontaminated • raise and maintain your spiritual energy. In the second part of the book, "Putting spiritual problem solving into action", Dyer shows how we can transform any negative energy into positive energy: • hate into love • hurt into forgiveness • doubt into faith • despair into hope • sadness into joy

A 5-step energy detox program from renowned energy healing expert,
Oliver Nino that removes the crippling blocks from your energetic
field that stand between you and abundance, purpose, and happiness.
Renowned energy healer and spiritual activation expert, Oliver Nino
shares his 5-step energy reset that eliminates the toxins that hold
you back from being in your healthiest state. In this book, Oliver
explains how energetic blocks lodge themselves in your system as
negative beliefs, emotions, and sometimes even physical conditions.
Traumas, ancestral roots, or environmental factors create feelings
of fear, guilt, anger, betrayal, uselessness, hurt, and inadequacy
that can flow through you like dangerous, free radicals. These
create walls in your energetic field, which can cause physical
disease, relationship issues, feeling “stuck,” a lack of
abundance, a lack of purpose, a lack of confidence, anxiety,
depression, or a general feeling of unhappiness. Writes Oliver, "I
find that when you cleanse, or remove, the blocks that weigh people
down using my healing techniques, it not only detoxes their
energetic fields—thus, healing various aspects of wellness—but
also allows them to tap into a higher power and activate their own
gifts, so that they can pursue their purpose on earth. Every one of
us is naturally wired to clear our energy fields. Our souls arrived
here in a clear, energetic state, and so it’s possible to return
to our natural way of being."
An introduction to the art and practice of meditation, this guide
lays down the foundation for ongoing spiritual development. A
series of ten lessons provide specific insight into Raja Yoga, with
practical exercises to complement and to help your understanding of
the method and underlying teachings. The lessons cover: an
introduction to the practice of meditation; rediscovering the true
identity and the nature of self; making meditation practical; the
shaping of personality; understanding and exploring different the
levels of consciousness; restoring our relationship with God;
understanding the natural law that governs the universe; a
spiritual understanding of how the dance of life on earth has
evolved; understanding the history and geography of time; and how
to support meditation and spiritual development with the right
lifestyle. The guide shows how meditation is more an experience
than something you do, more a process than an achievement, more an
ongoing inner journey than a destination. Take your time, be
patient with yourself and always be ready to go back to basics, to
lesson one, the true identity of the self, which is the foundation
of everything. The CD accompanying the book has an audio
introduction to meditation and many of the meditations within the
book are presented as guided commentaries. Recorded by the author,
the commentaries provide the reader with a powerful aid to their
meditational practice. Readers can also access assistance and have
their questions answered by email.

understanding the connection between our mental and physical
health, we should be looking at the exceptions, not the rules. Dr
